SQLite Tables Reference
=======================
In addition to the tables generated for each log format, **lnav** includes
the following tables:
* environ
* lnav_views
* all_logs
* http_status_codes
These extra tables provide useful information and can let you manipulate
**lnav**'s internal state. You can get a dump of the entire database schema
by executing the '.schema' SQL command, like so::
;.schema
environ
-------
The **environ** table gives you access to the **lnav** process' environment
variables. You can SELECT, INSERT, and UPDATE environment variables, like
so::
;SELECT * FROM environ WHERE name = 'SHELL'
name value
SHELL /bin/tcsh
;UPDATE environ SET value = '/bin/sh' WHERE name = 'SHELL'
Environment variables can be used to store simple values or pass values
from **lnav**'s SQL environment to **lnav**'s commands. For example, the
"open" command will do variable substitution, so you can insert a variable
named "FILENAME" and then open it in **lnav** by referencing it with
"$FILENAME"::
;INSERT INTO environ VALUES ('FILENAME', '/path/to/file')
:open $FILENAME
lnav_views
----------
The **lnav_views** table allows you to SELECT and UPDATE information related
to **lnav**'s "views" (e.g. log, text, ...). The following columns are
available in this table:
:name: The name of the view.
:top: The line number at the top of the view. This value can be UPDATEd to
move the view to the given line.
:left: The left-most column number to display. This value can be UPDATEd to
move the view left or right.
:height: The number of lines that are displayed on the screen.
:inner_height: The number of lines of content being displayed.
all_logs
--------
The **all_logs** table lets you query the format derived from the **lnav**
log message parser that is used to automatically extract data, see
:ref:`data-ext` for more details.
http_status_codes
-----------------
The **http_status_codes** table is a handy reference that can be used to turn
HTTP status codes into human-readable messages.
