Console - EXPORT RECORD

Exports the current record, using the requested format. In the event that you give a format that OrientDB does not support, it provides a list of supported formats.

Syntax

EXPORT RECORD <format>

• <format> Defines the export format you want to use.

Examples

• Use SELECT to create a record for export:

  orientdb> SELECT name, surname, parent, children, city FROM Person WHERE 
            name='Barack' AND surname='Obama'
   
  ---+-----+--------+---------+--------+------------+------
   # | RID | name   | surname | parent | children   | city
  ---+-----+--------+---------+--------+------------+------
   0 | 5:4 | Barack | Obama   | null   | [5:5, 5:6] | -6:2
  ---+-----+--------+---------+--------+------------+------

• Export JSON data from this record:

  orientdb> EXPORT RECORD JSON
   
  {
    'name': 'Barack',
    'surname': 'Obama',
    'parent': null,
    'children': [5:5, 5:6],
    'city': -6:2
  }

• Use a bad format value to determine what export formats are available on your database:

   
  orientdb> EXPORT RECORD GIBBERISH
   
  ERROR: Format 'GIBBERISH' was not found.
  Supported formats are:
  - json
  - ORecordDocument2csv
