The krQL language is used to execute request against a subset of the kDB API.

It relies on using YAML map of the form:

key:
  pname1: pvalue1
  pname2: pvalue2

For instance, the following query returns the property prop1 of object a from test_ts:

salient region:
  action: get property
  dataset: test_ts
  object: a
  property: prop1
