Stdin Input

The STDIN plugin basically allows you to enter data manually by typing it in the terminal session where RioDB is running.

Note, that the STDIN plugin is only available for on-prem deployments. (Not available on RIoDB Cloud)

Parameter:

There are no configurable parameters.

Syntax

Since there are no parameters, the parenthesis aren’t needed either:

INPUT stdin

Example

When the stream is started, you can type records in the command-line where RioDB is running. ENTER submits the record.
For example, you could type in the command-line session:

GOOG    1
TSLA    2
APPL    3

Each record above would be submitted after pressing ENTER.

Note, if RioDB is running as a service, then there’s no terminal session available to type in data. This is only available when you execute RioDB and have the command-line session in front of you.
