db.droptable --help
db.droptable [-f] [driver=name]
[database=name] table=name [--help]
[--verbose] [--quiet] [--ui]
Flags:¶
Parameters:¶
- driver=name
-
Name of database driver
If not given then default driver is used - database=name
-
Name of database
If not given then default database is used - table=name [required]

Name of table to drop
DESCRIPTION¶
db.droptable drops an attribute table. If the -f force flag is not given then nothing is removed, instead a preview of the action to be taken is printed.
NOTES¶
db.droptable is a front-end to db.execute to allow easier usage. To some extent it is verified if the table is connected to a vector map to avoid accidental table removal.
EXAMPLES¶
Removing an attribute table from default database¶
# show default database db.connect -p # show available tables db.tables -p # this will show what would happen db.droptable table=sometable # actually drop the table db.droptable -f table=sometable
Removing an attribute table from given database¶
db.droptable allows defining optionally driver and
database options different from default connection settings
(db.connect -p).
# drop the table from SQLite database db.droptable -f table=sometable driver=sqlite database=/opt/sqlite.db
