Commands

Detailed reference for all the HDXCLI commands

Profile

There is a 'default' profile that will be used if you omit --profile <profile-name> on each request to the HDXCLI.

List

hdxcli profile list  

Add

One way is to do it interactively:

hdxcli profile add <profile-name>  
Please, type the host name of your cluster: <host-name>  
Please, type the user name of your cluster: <user-name>  
Will you be using https  (Y/N): \<Y/N>

Or by passing the same information via options:

hdxcli add <profile-name> --hostname <hostname> --username <username> --scheme <http/s>

Show

If you omit --profile <profile-name>, 'default' profile will be shown.

hdxcli --profile <profile-name> profile show  

Set/Unset

hdxcli allows you to save both project name and table name to use as default.

Set

hdxcli set <project-name> <table-name>  

Unset

hdxcli unset

From now on, when you see --project <project-name> and --table <table-name>, you know that it can be omitted if the set command was previously used.

User

List

hdxcli user list

Delete

hdxcli user delete <user-email>

Show

hdxcli user --user <user-email> show

Assign roles

You can assign just one or multiple roles to a specific user. The option -r, --role can be used multiple times. It's a required setting.

hdxcli user assign-role <user-email> --role <role-name>  

Remove roles

The same as the assign-role command, but instead it removes roles from a user.

hdxcli user remove-role <user-email> --role <role-name>

Invite

List

The -p or --pending option can be used to filter the invite list, displaying only pending invitations.

hdxcli user invite list  

Send

The -r or --role option can be used multiple times. It is a required setting.

hdxcli user invite send <user-email> --role <role-name>

Resend

hdxcli user invite send <user-email>

Delete

hdxcli user invite delete <user-email>

Show

hdxcli user invite --user <user-email> show\

Role

List

hdxcli role list

Create

There are two ways to create a new role:

Using options. However, if you choose this method, the role cannot have two or more policies.

Using the interactive method.

Create a role using options

-n, --name and -p, --permission are required options to create a new role, and the -p, --permission option can be used multiple times. While a role may or may not have a specific scope, these options are considered optional. The -t, --scope-type expects to receive the name of a resource, such as project, table, transform, etc., and the -i, --scope-id should be the UUID identifier for that specific resource.

Use the following command to create a new role:

hdxcli role create --name <role-name> --scope-type <scope-type> --scope-id <scope-id> --permission <permission-name>

Create a role using interactive method

To create a role interactively, use the following command:

hdxcli role create  
Enter the name for the new role: <role-name>  
Adding a Policy, does it have a specific scope? [Y/n]\: \<y/n>  
Specify the type of scope for the role (e.g., project): <scope-type>  
Provide the 'uuid' for the specified scope: <scope-id>  
1 - commit_alterjob  
2 - change_kinesissource  
3 - ...  
n - All of them  
Enter the numbers corresponding to the permissions you'd want to add (comma-separated): \<i.e:1,2 or n>  
Do you want to add another Policy? [Y/n]\: \<y/n>

***

# Review Role Details

Role Name: <role-name>  
Policy 1:  
  Scope Type: <scope-type>  
  Scope ID: <scope-id>  
  Permissions: \<[permissions]>  
Confirm the creation of the new role? [Y/n]\: \<y/n>  
Created role role-name

Delete

hdxcli role delete <role-name>

Show

hdxcli role --role <role-name> show

Edit

This is an interactive command that allows you to modify the name of a role and add, modify, or delete policies associated with that role. Before finalizing the operation, it presents a detailed view of the modified role for confirmation or cancellation.

hdxcli role edit <role-name>

Add users

It allows to add just one or multiple users to a specific role. The option -u, --user can be used multiple times. It's required.

hdxcli role add-user <role-name> --user <user-email>

Remove users

The same as add-user command but to remove users from a role.

hdxcli role remove-user <role-name> --user <user-email>

Permissions list

This command displays a list of available permissions. Additionally, it allows filtering by type using the option -t, --type (e.g., -t function), showing only permissions related to that specific type.

Table

List

hdxcli table --project <project-name> list

Create Raw Table (Regular)

If creating a regular table, no additional options are required. Use the table create command without specifying any options.

hdxcli table --project <project-name> create <table-name>

Additionally, an option (--settings-file) exists to set different table settings other than the default. This works for both regular tables and summary tables:

hdxcli table --project <project-name> create <table-name> --settings-file <settings-file>.json

Create Aggregation Table (Summary)

When creating summary tables, the following options are necessary:

  • --type or -t: Specify as summary.

  • --sql-query or -s: Provide the SQL query directly via the command line.

Alternatively, use --sql-query-file to specify a file containing the SQL query.

Example using a SQL query in the command line:

hdxcli table --project <project-name> create <table-name> --type summary --sql-query <sql-query>

Example using a file containing the SQL query:

hdxcli table --project <project-name> create <table-name> --type summary --sql-query-file <sql-query-file>.txt

Alter

List

hdxcli job alter list

In addition, you can add the following options to filter the result of the alter job list command:

  --status TEXT   Filter alter jobs by status.
  --project TEXT  Filter alter jobs by project name.
  --table TEXT    Filter alter jobs by table name.

For example, to filter by status running, you would use:

hdxcli job alter list --status running

Create

There are two ways to create an alter job, each serving a different purpose. The update command allows you to modify the value of a column based on a specified where clause. On the other hand, as you might expect, the delete command provides a way to remove rows based on a where clause. After creating these alter jobs, it is necessary to perform a commit on the created alter job to apply the modifications.

Update

hdxcli job alter create update --table <project-name>.<table-name> --column <column-name> --value <value> --where <where-clause>

Delete

hdxcli job alter create delete --table <project-name>.<table-name> --where <where-clause>

Commit

hdxcli job alter commit <job-name>

Cancel

hdxcli job alter cancel <job-name>

Retry

hdxcli job alter retry <job-name>

Show

hdxcli job alter show <job-name>

Delete

Pool

List

hdxcli pool list

Create

pool-service needs to contain the name of the service (query-head, query-peer, etc. For more information see Hydrolix API Reference). pool-name is the name of the pool, that means the field ‘name’ in settings will be replaced by pool-name.
These options are not required since they have default values. Override the defaults with these options:

Options

  • -r, --replicas INTEGER Number of replicas for the workload (default: 1)

  • -c, --cpu FLOAT Dedicated CPU allocation for each replica (default: 0.5)

  • -m, --memory FLOAT Dedicated memory allocation for each replica, expressed in Gi (default: 0.5)

  • -s, --storage FLOAT Storage capacity for each replica, expressed in Gi (default: 0.5)

hdxcli pool create <pool-service> <pool-name>

An example modifying the default options would be:

hdxcli pool create <pool-service> <pool-name> -r 5 -c 1 -m 1 -s 2

Delete

hdxcli pool delete <pool-name>

If the format is ‘json’ you don’t need to specify it.

hdxcli dictionary --project <project-name> files upload <dictionary-file-to-upload>.json <dictionary-filename>

Otherwise, if the format is ‘csv’ you must use -t verbatim or --body-from-file-type verbatim.

Create

There are two ways to create a new function:

  • Passing the function on the command line using -s or --inline-sql option:

hdxcli function --project create -s ''

  • Using a JSON file with the function settings via -f or --sql-from-file option. The field ‘name’ in settings will be replaced by <function-name>:

Query-option

Query options operations at org-level. For more information, refer to Query Options documentation.

List

hdxcli query-option list

Set

hdxcli query-option set <query-option-name> <query-option-value>

An option (--from-file) is also available to configure a bunch of query options at once.

This query option file must be a JSON file with the following structure:

{
	'<query-option-name>': <query-option-value>,
  ...
}

Unset

To unset a query option, one only needs to use the following command:

hdxcli query-option unset <query-option-name>

Additionally, there is an option --all that unsets all query options.

Integration

List

Allows you to list all transforms available in the repository.

Show

hdxcli integration transform show <public-transform-name>

Migrate

Migrate table within the same cluster:

hdxcli migrate <source-project-name>.<source-table-name> <target-project-name>.<target-table-name>

Migrate table to another cluster, using --target-profile:

hdxcli migrate <source-project-name>.<source-table-name> <target-project-name>.<target-table-name> --target-profile <profile-name>

Or passing host information:
