Can I change the output format for SHOW CONFIG when using mgconsole?

In mgconsole (version 1.3) when I run SHOW CONFIG; query the output is hard to read.

`Memgraph Lab is running at localhost:3000

mgconsole 1.3 Connected to 'memgraph://127.0.0.1:7687' Type :help for shell usage Quit the shell by typing Ctrl-D(eof) or :quit memgraph> SHOW CONFIG; +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | name | default_value | current_value | description | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | "flag_file" | "" | "/etc/memgraph/memgr`

SHOW CONFIG;

Can the output format be changed?

Solution

  • There is a flag in Memgraph called -fit_to_screen. You need to use it before staring mgconsole. You can add this parameter to your docker run command.

    docker run -e MGCONSOLE="-fit_to_screen" -it -p 7687:7687 -p 7444:7444 -p 3000:3000 memgraph/memgraph-platform

    It will result in output that will fit to your window size. Like this

    SHOW CONFIG output
