TypeDB Console 3.1.0-rc1
Distribution
Download from TypeDB Package Repository: https://cloudsmith.io/~typedb/repos/public-release/packages/?q=name:^typedb-console+version:3.1.0-rc1
New Features
Rust console
We re-implement TypeDB console in Rust, using a slightly more sophisticated architecture. Most of the UX of the console remains the same, with the exception of three usages:
- TLS enabled by default
TypeDB console enables TLS connections by default. This further will error if you try to connect to an HTTP endpoint, instead of an HTTPS one. This change was required because username and password are now required to connect to the any TypeDB 3.0 server.
To disable TLS (for example, for local development), use the --tls-disabled
flag when booting TypeDB console. Note that this will send passwords in plaintext over the network.
- Replacement of
--core=<address>
and--cloud=<address>
with--address=<address>
To connect to a TypeDB server (either a Core/CE 3.0, or a Cloud 3.0 deployment) use the new --address=<address>
argument to the console.
- The command to open a transaction has changed
>> transaction <db> <read|write|schema>
Has become:
>> transaction <read|write|schema> <db>
Note how the position of the database name has been swapped.
Build
This repository is now supports dual Bazel/Cargo build systems.
To run TypeDB console directly from this repository, please see the updated README!
Artifacts
As before, Console will be published as platform-specific archives. However, they now contain a single bash/bat file and the compiled console binary. No more Java libs or requirement to have Java installed!
We also no longer deploy a console-runner
artifact, since it was only used to run the local assembly
test. The assembly test is now written in rust, using an unpublished, repository-local runner library that drives both a Server and a Console in the test.
Note
Some details of the TypeDB Console UX has changed. Please try it out and don't hesitate to reach out to share your thoughts!
Bugs Fixed
Code Refactors
- Update TypeDB driver dependency and constructor
Update TypeDB driver dependency and use the unified driver constructor to support the latest API.
Other Improvements
-
Fix query command parsing
-
Fix next-command index bug
-
Improve UX of Ctrl+C and fix bugs in command submission
We an important bug:
1.>> match $x isa person; |
- navigate cursor and enter newlines
>> match | $x isa person;
Various things would break, including submitting the "script" prematurely. Now, the block is only submitted when the sequence of commands entered are a valid script.
Additionally, the UX if Ctr+C is improved: when hitting Ctrl+C on a non-empty line, the line is retained, rather than cleared.
-
Multiline script paste and unified scripting format
We refactor the Console to allow pasting a "script" into the current REPL. This will be correctly interpreted and executed as a block of separate commands. The inputs must look as they would when using the console interactively:
database create tmp transaction schema tmp define entity person; commit
With the empty newline, as in regular interactive console, being used to mark the end of the query.
This is particularly useful for pasting fully self-contained examples from TypeDB documentation into the console!
The format of
--file
scripts (now called--script
) must follow this same format, instead of using\
to write multiline queries. We will refer to this as theTypeDB Console Script
, orScripted TypeQL
in some contexts. We use.tqls
for console scripts, instead of the usual.tql
which contains pure TypeQL. -
Strip newline before adding to history
-
Implement search based on currently entered term

Fix test-assembly
-
Clear line if ctrl+c is hit with content on the current line

New Features
- Update console to support TypeDB 3.0.4 and its features
Bugs Fixed
-
Fix printing of variables with empty values and rows with no columns
Enhance printing logic to handle two special cases of received answers:- When a variable with no values is returned, an empty result will be shown instead of a crash (it used to be considered an impossible situation).
- When concept rows are returned, but they do not have any columns inside (possible for
delete
stages), a special message is written, and the number of answers (rows) is still presented.

Bugs Fixed
- Speed up transaction opening and fix parallel
- We fix transaction opening for all the supported drivers, speeding up the operation by 2x.
- We eliminate database-related errors happening during concurrent database management (create and delete operations) by multiple drivers due to cache mismatches.
- We make transaction opening requests immediately return errors instead of waiting for additional transaction operations to be performed (e.g. commit or query).
