For example, if you plan to use the movie dataset, you can use the command to import data into the test database (Before this, you can quickly start a TIDB database locally through the tiup playground command).

tidb-dataset movie prepare

The tool will import the data into the database named test by default. You can specify it through the following parameters:

  -D, --db string           Database name (default "test")
  -H, --host string         Database host (default "127.0.0.1")
  -p, --password string     Database password
  -P, --port int            Database port (default 4000)
  -U, --user string         Database user (default "root")

After your test is completed, you can clear the database table generated during the test by using the following command:
