CLI option reference

These names are the maintained long-option contract. Run ./bin/replicadb --help for the generated descriptions and argument names.

Unless overridden, the CLI uses mode=complete, jobs=4, fetch.size=100, unlimited bandwidth (0), INFO logging, and unquoted identifiers. An options file may deliberately choose more conservative values.

Option	Purpose
--source-connect	Source connection string.
--source-user	Source user.
--source-password	Source password supplied through a protected options file.

--source-auth-client-key	Source client key path or value.
--source-table	Source table.
--source-columns	Source column selection.
--source-where	Source filtering expression.
--incremental-watermark-column	Incremental source watermark column.
--incremental-watermark-value	Previously successful watermark value.
--source-query	Free-form source query.
--source-file-format	Source file format: csv, json, avro, parquet, or orc.
--sink-connect	Sink connection string.
--sink-user	Sink user.
--sink-password	Sink password supplied through a protected options file.
--sink-auth-mode	Sink connector authentication mode.
--sink-auth-principal-id	Sink authentication principal identifier.
--sink-auth-login-hint	Sink authentication login hint.
--sink-auth-client-certificate	Sink client certificate path or value.
--sink-auth-client-key	Sink client key path or value.
--sink-table	Sink table.
--sink-columns	Sink column selection.
--sink-disable-escape	Disable sink escaping.
--sink-disable-index	Disable sink index handling.
--sink-disable-truncate	Disable sink truncation.
--sink-auto-create	Create the sink table when supported.
--sink-analyze	Analyze the sink table after populate.
--sink-staging-table	Existing sink staging table.
--sink-staging-table-alias	Alias for the sink staging table.
--sink-staging-schema	Schema for generated sink staging tables.
--sink-file-format	Sink file format: csv, json, avro, parquet, or orc.
--options-file	Java-properties options file path.
--mode	complete, complete-atomic, or incremental.
--fetch-size	Rows requested by a source read.
--version	Print the implementation version and exit.

--help	Print the help screen and exit.
--jobs	Number of parallel jobs.
--verbose	Print more information while working.
--quoted-identifiers	Quote database identifiers.

Boolean flags are enabled by their presence on the command line. In an options file, use the corresponding dotted property and an explicit true or false where the maintained sample exposes one. Connector pages remain authoritative for whether an otherwise valid option is meaningful for that source or sink.
