# where
|
|
|
|
This command filters the content of a table based on a condition passed as a parameter, which must be a boolean expression making use of any of the table columns. Other commands such as `ls` are capable of feeding `where` with their output through pipelines.
|
|
|
|
Where has two general forms:
|
|
- `where <column_name> <comparison> <value>`
|
|
- `where <column_name>`
|
|
|
|
## Where with comparison
|
|
|
|
In the first form, `where` is passed a column name that the filter will run against. Next, is the operator used to compare this column to its value. The following operators are supported:
|
|
|
|
- `<` (less than)
|
|
- `<=` (less than or equal)
|
|
- `>` (greater than)
|
|
- `>=` (greater than or equal)
|
|
- `!=` (not equal)
|
|
- `==` (equal)
|
|
|
|
Strings have two additional operators:
|
|
- `=~` (fuzzy match to allow)
|
|
- `!~` (fuzzy match to not allow)
|
|
|
|
Dates can also be compared using the duration types. For example, `where accessed > 2w` will check the date in accessed to see if it's greater than 2 weeks ago. Durations currently allow these abbreviations:
|
|
|
|
- `1s` (one second)
|
|
- `1m` (one minute)
|
|
- `1h` (one hour)
|
|
- `1d` (one day)
|
|
- `1w` (one week)
|
|
- `1M` (one month)
|
|
- `1y` (one year)
|
|
|
|
## Boolean check
|
|
|
|
Where with the form `| where readonly` is used to check boolean values. For example, the command `ls --full | where readonly` will list only those files that are readonly.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
```shell
|
|
> [input-command] | where [condition]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
> ls | where size > 4kb
