Description
The influxdb3 show databases
command lists parquet
as a supported output format but doesn't provide a -o
,--output
option to specify a file to write output to. You can't output raw Parquet in a command line.
Steps to reproduce:
-
Create one or more databases in an InfluxDB 3 Core or Enterprise instance.
-
Run the following command to list databases and format the output as Parquet:
influxdb3 show databases --format parquet
Expected behaviour:
I would expect the show commands, if they are to support Parquet output, would also include a -o
, --output
option to output the raw Parquet to a file (like the influxdb3 query
command does).
Actual behaviour:
When you try to output Parquet on the command line, you get an error similar to:
Show command failed: invalid utf-8 sequence of 1 bytes from index 19
