RethinkDB CSV Exports - 27 Apr 2016


I’ve been writing some toy scripts recently that use RethinkDB as a data store. I’ve gotten a couple of requests to export the data to a CSV document for manipulation in excel. Luckily, there’s an easy way to export your data using the rethinkdb command line tool.

  rethinkdb export -e dbname.posts --format csv --fields title,author

This command allows you to specify a csv or json format for the export. You’ll then need to pass in the database and table you want to export. The fields option allows you to pass in the fields you wish to export.
