<para>
This appendix shows all legal syntax for the tarantool command-line client, with short notes and examples.
Other client programs may have similar options and statement syntaxes.
</para>
<para>
<bridgehead renderas="sect4">Conventions used in this appendix</bridgehead>
Tokens are character sequences which are treated as syntactic units within statements.
Square brackets <code>[</code> and <code>]</code> enclose optional syntax.
Three dots in a row <code>...</code> mean the preceding tokens may be repeated.
A vertical bar <code>|</code> means the preceding and following tokens are mutually exclusive alternatives.
</para>

<bridgehead renderas="sect4">Options when starting client from the command line</bridgehead>
General form: <code>tarantool [<replaceable>option</replaceable>...] [<replaceable>statement</replaceable>]</code>.
Statement will be described in a later section.
Option is one of the following (in alphabetical order by the long form of the option):

<bridgehead renderas="sect4">Tokens for use within statements</bridgehead>
</para>
<para>
Keywords are: Character sequences containing only letters of the English alphabet.
Examples: SELECT, INTO, FIBER.
Notes: Keywords are case insensitive so SELECT and Select are the same thing.
</para>
<para>
Tuple set identifiers are: Lower case letter 't' followed by one or more digits.
Examples: t0, t55.
</para>
<para>
Field identifiers are: Lower case letter 'k' followed by one or more digits.
Examples: k0, k55.
</para>
<para>
Procedure identifiers are: Any sequence of letters, digits, or underscores which is
legal according to the rules for Lua identifiers.
</para>
<para>
String literals are: Any sequence of zero or more characters enclosed in single quotes.
Examples: 'Hello, world', 'A'.
</para>
<para>
Numeric literals are: Character sequences containing only digits, optionally preceded by + or -.
Examples: 55, -.
Notes: Tarantool NUM data type is unsigned, so -1 is understood as a large unsigned number.
</para>
<para>
Single-byte tokens are: * or , or ( or ).
Examples: * , ( ).
</para>
<para>
Tokens must be separated from each other by one or more spaces, except that
spaces are not necessary around single-byte tokens or string literals.

<bridgehead renderas="sect4">Statements in alphabetical order</bridgehead>
Although an initial statement may be entered on the tarantool command line,
generally they are entered following the prompt in interactive mode while
tarantool is running. (A prompt will be the name of the host and a greater-than
sign, for example <code>localhost&gt;</code>). The end-of-statement marker is
a newline (line feed).

<bridgehead renderas="sect4">Modes</bridgehead>
Depending how one combines the tarantool client's options, there are in effect three modes of operation:
<quote>interactive</quote>, <quote>print and play</quote>, or <quote>replication</quote> mode.
</para>
<para>
In <emphasis>interactive</emphasis> mode, one types statements and gets results.
One can specify a statement file when starting
(<code>tarantool &lt; file_name</code>)
or one can specify a statement file with the LOADFILE statement:
(<code>LOADFILE file_name</code>), but typically the statements
are typed in by the user following prompts.
Here is an example of an interactive-mode tarantool client session:
<programlisting>
<prompt>$ </prompt>tarantool
localhost&gt; <userinput>INSERT INTO t0 VALUES ('X-1',100)</userinput>
Insert OK, 1 rows affected
localhost&gt; <userinput>INSERT INTO t0 VALUES ('X-2',200,'On Order')</userinput>
Insert OK, 1 rows affected
localhost&gt; <userinput>INSERT INTO t0 VALUES ('X-3',300,'')</userinput>
Insert OK, 1 rows affected
localhost&gt; <userinput>UPDATE t0 SET k1 = 300 WHERE k0 = 'X-1'</userinput>
Update OK, 1 rows affected
localhost&gt; <userinput>DELETE FROM t0 WHERE k0 = 'X-2'</userinput>
Delete OK, 1 rows affected
localhost&gt; <userinput>SELECT * FROM t0 WHERE k0 = 'X-1'</userinput>
Select OK, 1 rows affected
['X-1', 300]
localhost&gt; <userinput>EXIT</userinput>
<prompt>$ </prompt>
</programlisting>
</para>
<para>
In <emphasis>print and play</emphasis> mode,
one uses --cat and --play and --from and --to and --space options
to print write-ahead-log contents, or to send write-ahead-log
contents to the server.
Here is an example of a print-and-play-mode tarantool client session:
<programlisting>
<prompt>$ </prompt>tarantool --cat /home/user1/tarantool_test/work_dir/00000000000000000005.xlog --from 22 --to 26
Insert, lsn: 22, time: 1385327353.345869, len: 33, space: 0, cookie: 127.0.0.1:44787 ['X-1', 100]
Insert, lsn: 23, time: 1385327353.346745, len: 42, space: 0, cookie: 127.0.0.1:44787 ['X-2', 200, 8243105135088135759]
Insert, lsn: 24, time: 1385327353.347352, len: 34, space: 0, cookie: 127.0.0.1:44787 ['X-3', 300, '']
Update, lsn: 25, time: 1385327353.348209, len: 42, space: 0, cookie: 127.0.0.1:44787 ['X-1']
Delete, lsn: 26, time: 1385327353.348879, len: 28, space: 0, cookie: 127.0.0.1:44787 ['X-2']
<prompt>$ </prompt>
</programlisting>
</para>
<para>
In <emphasis>replication</emphasis> mode,
one connects as a replica, and then writes
a binary log to a file.
