MDBX_DUMP(1)		     General Commands Manual		    MDBX_DUMP(1)

NAME
     mdbx_dump - MDBX environment export tool

SYNOPSIS
     mdbx_dump [-V] [-q] [-f file] [-l] [-p] [-a | -s table] [-r] [-n]	dbpath

DESCRIPTION
     The mdbx_dump utility reads a database and writes its contents to the stan-
     dard   output   using   a	portable  flat-text  format  understood  by  the
     mdbx_load(1) utility.

OPTIONS
     -V     Write the library version number to the standard output, and exit.

     -q     Be quiet.

     -f file
	    Write to the specified file instead of to the standard output.

     -l     List the databases stored in the environment. Just the names will be
	    listed, no data will be output.

     -p     If characters in either the key or data items are  printing  charac-
	    ters  (as  defined by isprint(3)), output them directly. This option
	    permits users to use standard text editors and tools to  modify  the
	    contents of databases.

	    Note:  different systems may have different notions about what char-
	    acters are considered printing characters, and databases  dumped  in
	    this manner may be less portable to external systems.

     -a     Dump all of the tables in the environment.

     -s table
	    Dump  a  specific  table. If no database is specified, only the main
	    table is dumped.

     -r     Rescure mode. Ignore some errors to dump corrupted DB.

     -u     Warms up the DB before dumping via notifying OS kernel of subsequent
	    access to the database pages.

     -U     Warms up the DB before dumping, notifying the OS  kernel  of  subse-
	    quent  access to the database pages, then forcibly loads ones by se-
	    quential access and tries to lock database pages in memory.

     -n     Dump an MDBX database which does not use  subdirectories.	This  is
	    legacy option. For now MDBX handles this automatically.

DIAGNOSTICS
     Exit  status  is zero if no errors occur.	Errors result in a non-zero exit
     status and a diagnostic message being written to standard error.

     Dumping and reloading databases that use user-defined comparison  functions
     will result in new databases that use the default comparison functions.  In
     this case it is quite likely that the reloaded database will be damaged be-
     yond repair permitting neither record storage nor retrieval.

     The  only available workaround is to modify the source for the mdbx_load(1)
     utility to load the database using the correct comparison functions.
