Aerospike Query Client
Version 8.3.0
Usage: aql [OPTIONS]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-V, --version Print AQL version information.
-O, --options Print command-line options message.
-E, --help Print command-line options message and AQL commands
documentation.

Configuration File Allowed Options
----------------------------------
[cluster]
-h, --host=HOST
HOST is "<host1>[:<tlsname1>][:<port1>],..."
Server seed hostnames or IP addresses. The tlsname is
only used when connecting with a secure TLS enabled
server. Default: localhost:3000
Examples:
host1
host1:3000,host2:3000
192.168.1.10:cert1:3000,192.168.1.20:cert2:3000
--services-alternate
Use to connect to alternate access address when the
cluster's nodes publish IP addresses through access-address
which are not accessible over WAN and alternate IP addresses
accessible over WAN through alternate-access-address. Default: false.
-p, --port=PORT Server default port. Default: 3000
-U, --user=USER User name used to authenticate with cluster. Default: none
-P, --password
Password used to authenticate with cluster. Default: none
User will be prompted on command line if -P specified and no
password is given.
--auth
Set authentication mode when user/password is defined. Modes are
(INTERNAL, EXTERNAL, EXTERNAL_INSECURE, PKI). Default: INTERNAL
This mode must be set EXTERNAL when using LDAP
--tls-enable Enable TLS on connections. By default TLS is disabled.
--tls-name=TLS_NAME
Specify host tls name.
--tls-cafile=TLS_CAFILE
Path to a trusted CA certificate file.
--tls-capath=TLS_CAPATH.
Path to a directory of trusted CA certificates.
--tls-protocols=TLS_PROTOCOLS
Set the TLS protocol selection criteria. This format
is the same as Apache's SSLProtocol documented at http
s://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_ssl.html#ssl
protocol . If not specified, AQL uses '-all
+TLSv1.2' if supported, otherwise it will
use '-all +TLSv1'.
--tls-cipher-suite=TLS_CIPHER_SUITE
Set the TLS cipher selection criteria. The format is
the same as Open_sSL's Cipher List Format documented
at https://www.openssl.org/docs/man1.0.1/apps/ciphers.
html
--tls-keyfile=TLS_KEYFILE
Path to the key for mutual authentication (if
Aerospike Cluster is supporting it).
--tls-keyfile-password=TLS_KEYFILE_PASSWORD
Password to load protected tls-keyfile.
It can be one of the following:
1) Environment varaible: 'env:<VAR>'
2) File: 'file:<PATH>'
3) String: 'PASSWORD'
Default: none
User will be prompted on command line if --tls-keyfile-password
specified and no password is given.
--tls-certfile=TLS_CERTFILE <path>
Path to the chain file for mutual authentication (if
Aerospike Cluster is supporting it).
--tls-cert-blacklist <path> (DEPRECATED)
Path to a certificate
blacklist file. The file should contain one line for
each blacklisted certificate. Each line starts with
the certificate serial number expressed in hex. Each
entry may optionally specify the issuer name of the
certificate (serial numbers are only required to be
unique per issuer).Example: 867EC87482B2
/C=US/ST=CA/O=Acme/OU=Engineering/CN=TestChainCA
--tls-crl-check Enable CRL checking for leaf certificate. An error
occurs if a valid CRL files cannot be found in
tls_capath.
--tls-crl-checkall Enable CRL checking for entire certificate chain. An
error occurs if a valid CRL files cannot be found in
tls_capath.
[aql]
-z, --threadpoolsize=count
Set the number of client threads used to talk to the
server. Default: 16
-o, --outputmode=mode
Set the output mode. (json | table | raw | mute)
Default: table
-n, --outputtypes Disable outputting types for values (e.g., GeoJSON, JSON)
to distinguish them from generic strings
-T, --timeout=ms Set the timeout (ms) for commands. Default: 1000
--socket-timeout=ms Set the socket idle timeout (ms) for commands.
Default: same as C client
Default for scan/query: 30000ms
Default for other commands: 0 (no socket idle time limit)
-u, --udfuser=path Path to User managed UDF modules.
Default: /opt/aerospike/usr/udf/lua
Default configuration files are read from the following files in the given order:
/etc/aerospike/astools.conf ~/.aerospike/astools.conf
The following sections are read: (cluster aql include)
The following options effect configuration file behavior
--no-config-file
Do not read any config file. Default: disabled
--instance=name
Section with these instance is read. e.g in case instance `a` is specified
sections cluster_a, aql_a is read.
--config-file=path
Read this file after default configuration file.
--only-config-file=path
Read only this configuration file.
Commands
aql uses a command language based on SQL-LIKE syntax. This will be familiar to those who have experience with RDBMS tools.
