+sqoop-import-all-tables+
-------------------------

Purpose
~~~~~~~

include::import-all-tables-purpose.txt[]

Syntax
~~~~~~

----
$ sqoop import-all-tables (generic-args) (import-args)
$ sqoop-import-all-tables (generic-args) (import-args)
----

Although the Hadoop generic arguments must preceed any import arguments,
the import arguments can be entered in any order with respect to one
another.

include::common-args.txt[]

.Import control arguments:
[grid="all"]
`----------------------------`---------------------------------------
Argument                     Description
---------------------------------------------------------------------
+\--as-avrodatafile+         Imports data to Avro Data Files
+\--as-sequencefile+         Imports data to SequenceFiles
+\--as-textfile+             Imports data as plain text (default)
+\--direct+                  Use direct import fast path
+\--direct-split-size <n>+   Split the input stream every 'n' bytes when\
                             importing in direct mode
+\--inline-lob-limit <n>+    Set the maximum size for an inline LOB
+-m,\--num-mappers <n>+      Use 'n' map tasks to import in parallel
+\--warehouse-dir <dir>+     HDFS parent for table destination
+-z,\--compress+             Enable compression
+\--compression-codec <c>+   Use Hadoop codec (default gzip)
---------------------------------------------------------------------

These arguments behave in the same manner as they do when used for the
+sqoop-import+ tool, but the +\--table+, +\--split-by+, +\--columns+,
and +\--where+ arguments are invalid for +sqoop-import-all-tables+.

.Code generation arguments:
[grid="all"]
`------------------------`-----------------------------------------------
Argument                 Description
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
+\--bindir <dir>+        Output directory for compiled objects
+\--jar-file <file>+     Disable code generation; use specified jar
+\--outdir <dir>+        Output directory for generated code
+\--package-name <name>+ Put auto-generated classes in this package
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

The +import-all-tables+ tool does not support the +\--class-name+ argument.
You may, however, specify a package with +\--package-name+ in which all
generated classes will be placed.

Example Invocations
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Import all tables from the +corp+ database:

----
$ sqoop import-all-tables --connect jdbc:mysql://db.foo.com/corp
----

Verifying that it worked:

----
$ hadoop fs -ls
