Quick Start

This short guide will walk you through the basic process of using IoTDB. For a more detailed introduction, please visit our website's User Guide.

Prerequisites

To use IoTDB, you need to have:

  1. Java >= 1.8 (1.8, 11, and 13 are verified. Please make sure the environment path has been set accordingly).
  2. Maven >= 3.1 (If you want to compile and install IoTDB from source code).
  3. Set the max open files num as 65535 to avoid "too many open files" error.

Installation

IoTDB provides three installation methods, you can refer to the following suggestions, choose the one fits you best:

  • Installation from source code. If you need to modify the code yourself, you can use this method.
  • Installation from binary files. Download the binary files from the official website. This is the recommended method, in which you will get a binary released package which is out-of-the-box.(Comming Soon...)
  • Using Docker：The path to the dockerfile is https://github.com/apache/incubator-iotdb/tree/master/docker/src/main

Here in the Quick Start, we give a brief introduction of using source code to install IoTDB. For further information, please refer to Chapter 3 of the User Guide.

Build from source

You can download the source code from:

git clone https://github.com/apache/incubator-iotdb.git

The default master branch is the dev branch, If you want to use a released version x.x.x:

git checkout release/x.x.x

Under the root path of incubator-iotdb:

> mvn clean package -DskipTests

Then the binary version (including both server and client) can be found at distribution/target/apache-iotdb-{project.version}-incubating-bin.zip

NOTE: Directories "service-rpc/target/generated-sources/thrift" and "server/target/generated-sources/antlr4" need to be added to sources roots to avoid compilation errors in the IDE.

Configurations

configuration files are under "conf" folder

  • environment config module (iotdb-env.bat, iotdb-env.sh),
  • system config module (iotdb-engine.properties)
  • log config module (logback.xml).

For more information, please see Chapter3: Server and Chapter4: Client in detail.

Start

You can go through the following steps to test the installation, if there is no error returned after execution, the installation is completed.

Start IoTDB

Users can start IoTDB by the start-server script under the sbin folder.

# Unix/OS X
> sbin/start-server.sh -c <conf_path> -rpc_port <rpc_port>

# Windows
> sbin\start-server.bat -c <conf_path> -rpc_port <rpc_port>
  • "-c" and "-rpc_port" are optional.
  • option "-c" specifies the system configuration file directory.
  • option "-rpc_port" specifies the rpc port.
  • if both option specified, the rpc_port will overrides the rpc_port in conf_path.

Use IoTDB

Use Cli

IoTDB offers different ways to interact with server, here we introduce the basic steps of using Cli tool to insert and query data.

After installing IoTDB, there is a default user 'root', its default password is also 'root'. Users can use this default user to login Cli to use IoTDB. The startup script of Cli is the start-client script in the folder sbin. When executing the script, user should assign IP, PORT, USER_NAME and PASSWORD. The default parameters are "-h 127.0.0.1 -p 6667 -u root -pw -root".

Here is the command for starting the Cli:

# Unix/OS X
> sbin/start-client.sh -h 127.0.0.1 -p 6667 -u root -pw root

# Windows
> sbin\start-client.bat -h 127.0.0.1 -p 6667 -u root -pw root

The command line client is interactive, so you should see the welcome logo and statements if everything is ready:

 _____       _________  ______   ______
|_   _|     |  _   _  ||_   _ `.|_   _ \
  | |   .--.|_/ | | \_|  | | `. \ | |_) |
  | | / .'`\ \  | |      | |  | | |  __'.
 _| |_| \__. | _| |_    _| |_.' /_| |__) |
|_____|'.__.' |_____|  |______.'|_______/  version x.x.x

Basic commands for IoTDB

Now, let us introduce the way of creating timeseries, inserting data and querying data.

The data in IoTDB is organized as timeseries. Each timeseries includes multiple data-time pairs, and is owned by a storage group. Before defining a timeseries, we should define a storage group using SET STORAGE GROUP first, and here is an example:

IoTDB> SET STORAGE GROUP TO root.ln

We can also use SHOW STORAGE GROUP to check the storage group being created:

IoTDB> SHOW STORAGE GROUP
+-----------------------------------+
|                      Storage Group|
+-----------------------------------+
|                            root.ln|
+-----------------------------------+
storage group number = 1

After the storage group is set, we can use CREATE TIMESERIES to create a new timeseries. When creating a timeseries, we should define its data type and the encoding scheme. Here We create two timeseries:

IoTDB> CREATE TIMESERIES root.ln.wf01.wt01.status WITH DATATYPE=BOOLEAN, ENCODING=PLAIN
IoTDB> CREATE TIMESERIES root.ln.wf01.wt01.temperature WITH DATATYPE=FLOAT, ENCODING=RLE

In order to query the specific timeseries, we can use SHOW TIMESERIES . represent the location of the timeseries. The default value is "null", which queries all the timeseries in the system(the same as using "SHOW TIMESERIES root"). Here are some examples:

  1. Querying all timeseries in the system:
IoTDB> SHOW TIMESERIES
+-------------------------------+---------------+--------+--------+
|                     Timeseries|  Storage Group|DataType|Encoding|
+-------------------------------+---------------+--------+--------+
|       root.ln.wf01.wt01.status|        root.ln| BOOLEAN|   PLAIN|
|  root.ln.wf01.wt01.temperature|        root.ln|   FLOAT|     RLE|
+-------------------------------+---------------+--------+--------+
Total timeseries number = 2
  1. Querying a specific timeseries(root.ln.wf01.wt01.status):
IoTDB> SHOW TIMESERIES root.ln.wf01.wt01.status
+------------------------------+--------------+--------+--------+
|                    Timeseries| Storage Group|DataType|Encoding|
+------------------------------+--------------+--------+--------+
|      root.ln.wf01.wt01.status|       root.ln| BOOLEAN|   PLAIN|
+------------------------------+--------------+--------+--------+
Total timeseries number = 1

Insert timeseries data is a basic operation of IoTDB, you can use ‘INSERT’ command to finish this. Before insertion, you should assign the timestamp and the suffix path name:

IoTDB> INSERT INTO root.ln.wf01.wt01(timestamp,status) values(100,true);
IoTDB> INSERT INTO root.ln.wf01.wt01(timestamp,status,temperature) values(200,false,20.71)

The data that you have just inserted will display as follows:

IoTDB> SELECT status FROM root.ln.wf01.wt01
+-----------------------+------------------------+
|                   Time|root.ln.wf01.wt01.status|
+-----------------------+------------------------+
|1970-01-01T08:00:00.100|                    true|
|1970-01-01T08:00:00.200|                   false|
+-----------------------+------------------------+
Total line number = 2

You can also query several timeseries data using one SQL statement:

IoTDB> SELECT * FROM root.ln.wf01.wt01
+-----------------------+--------------------------+-----------------------------+
|                   Time|  root.ln.wf01.wt01.status|root.ln.wf01.wt01.temperature|
+-----------------------+--------------------------+-----------------------------+
|1970-01-01T08:00:00.100|                      true|                         null|
|1970-01-01T08:00:00.200|                     false|                        20.71|
+-----------------------+--------------------------+-----------------------------+
Total line number = 2

The commands to exit the Cli are:

IoTDB> quit
or
IoTDB> exit

For more information about the commands supported by IoTDB SQL, please see Chapter 5: IoTDB SQL Documentation.

Stop IoTDB

The server can be stopped with "ctrl-C" or the following script:

# Unix/OS X
> sbin/stop-server.sh

# Windows
> sbin\stop-server.bat

Only build server

Under the root path of incubator-iotdb:

> mvn clean package -pl server -am -DskipTests

After being built, the IoTDB server is located at the folder: "server/target/iotdb-server-{project.version}".

Only build client

Under the root path of incubator-iotdb:

> mvn clean package -pl client -am -DskipTests

After being built, the IoTDB client is located at the folder "client/target/iotdb-client-{project.version}".

Usage of import-csv.sh

Create metadata
