Use the Spark-SQL CLI

The Spark-SQL CLI provides -e to execute multiple SQL statements that are separated by semicolons (;). The CLI also provides -f to execute statements in an SQL file. The SQL statements in the file are separated by semicolons (;). You can place the configuration specified by the conf field into the spark-defaults.conf file in the conf folder and submit the file in the following format:

## Use the -e option to execute multiple statements that are separated by semicolons (;). --database is used to specify the default database.

$ ./bin/spark-sql \
--verbose \
--database mydb \
--name offlinesql \
-e "select * from t1;insert into table t1 values(4,'test');select * from t1" 


## You can also place SQL statements in a file. The statements in the file are separated by semicolons (;). Use the -f option to specify the local directory in which the SQL file is stored. 
The directory must be an absolute path.

$ ./bin/spark-sql \
--verbose \
--name offlinesql \
-f /path/to/your/sql/file


## The following result is returned:
++++++++++++++++++executing sql: select * from t1
| id|name|
|  1|  zz|
|  2|  xx|
|  3|  yy|
|  4|test|
++++++++++++++++++ end ++++++++++++++++++
++++++++++++++++++executing sql: insert into table t1 values(4,'test')
||
++++++++++++++++++ end ++++++++++++++++++
++++++++++++++++++executing sql: select * from t1
| id|name|
|  1|  zz|
|  2|  xx|
|  3|  yy|
|  4|test|


## The Spark-SQL CLI also supports variable substitution. You can use -d key=value to specify the value of a parameter, and use ${key} to reference the value of a key in SQL statements. 
$ ./bin/spark-sql \
--verbose \
--name variableSubstitution \
-d table=mytable \
-e "use <db>; select * from \${table}"

## The "$" symbol has a special meaning. If you reference the variable table, you must escape the "$" symbol. If you reference the variable table in an SQL file, you do not need to escape the "$" symbol.
## After the variable substitution, the following SQL statement is used:
use <db>; select * from mytable
