LIST KEYS

The LIST KEYS command retrieves the server settings. Some of the returned settings are read-only and cannot be set. To retrieve more information about the settings, use the DETAILED flag. All the KEYS in the settings database are automatically distributed all over the cluster. To retrieve a single specific information, use the GET KEY key command.

Syntax

LIST KEYS [DETAILED] [NOREADONLY]

Privileges

SETTINGS

Return

A Rowset with the following columns:

  • key: settings key
  • value: settings value
  • default_value: default value
  • readonly: 1 if key is read-only
  • description: key description

The additional default_value, readonly and description columns are returned only if the DETAILED flag is used.

REMOVE CLIENT KEY

The REMOVE CLIENT KEY command is used to reset to a default value a keyname

Syntax

REMOVE CLIENT KEY keyname

Privileges

NONE

Return

OK string or error value (see SCSP protocol).

Example

> REMOVE CLIENT KEY COMPRESSION
OK

REMOVE DATABASE KEY

Use this command to permanently remove keyname from the list of settings for the database database_name.

Syntax

REMOVE DATABASE database_name KEY keyname

Privileges

PRAGMA

Return

OK string or error value (see SCSP protocol).

Example

> REMOVE DATABASE mediastore.sqlite KEY key1
OK

REMOVE KEY

The REMOVE KEY command permanently deletes a keyname from the settings database file (the change is automatically distributed on the cluster). Removing a previously set keyname value usually means restoring its default value.

Syntax

REMOVE KEY keyname

Privileges

SETTINGS

Return

OK string or error value (see SCSP protocol).

Example

> REMOVE KEY max_chunk_size
OK

SET CLIENT KEY

The SET CLIENT KEY command sets a keyname to a specific keyvalue.

Syntax

SET CLIENT KEY keyname TO keyvalue

Privileges

NONE

Return

OK string or error value (see SCSP protocol).

Example

> SET CLIENT KEY COMPRESSION TO 0
OK

SET DATABASE KEY

Use this command to set a specific key/value setting to database_name.

You can use any key/value, but some keys are reserved for a special purpose:

  • use_concurrent_transactions: set to 1 or 0 to enable/disable CONCURRENT transaction for the database
  • DATABASE_KEY: set to the encryption key used to decrypt the database file. Note that this is not equivalent to encrypting a database. This value must be used to set an encryption key for an already encrypted database.

Syntax

SET DATABASE database_name KEY keyname TO keyvalue

Privileges

PRAGMA

Return

OK string or error value (see SCSP protocol).

Example

> SET DATABASE mediastore.sqlite KEY key1 VALUE value1
OK

SET KEY

The SET KEY command sets or updates a keyname to a specific keyvalue. Once set, the server immediately uses the updated value (and automatically distributes it on the cluster).

Syntax

SET KEY keyname TO keyvalue

Privileges

SETTINGS

Return

OK string or error value (see SCSP protocol).

Example

> SET KEY max_chunk_size TO 524288
OK
