This command is using the CBT (Cloud Bigtable) command-line tool to read data from a specific table in a Bigtable instance. Here's a breakdown of the command:
cbt read
: This is the command to read data from Bigtable using the CBT tool."${table_name}"
: This variable should be replaced with the actual name of the table from which you want to read data. It is in double quotes to provide the value as a string.regex="${row_key_pattern}"
: This specifies a regular expression pattern to filter the row keys. Only the rows whose keys match the given regex pattern will be read. You should replace${row_key_pattern}
with the actual regular expression pattern you want to use.count=${5}
: This specifies the maximum number of rows to read. Here,5
is the number of rows you want to fetch. You can change it according to your requirements.
Overall, this command is used to read data from a Bigtable table using the CBT tool, with optional filtering based on a regex pattern and a limit on the number of rows to be read.
