Ted Yu commented on HBASE-3729:
-------------------------------
Luckily get command works - get.setMaxVersions() only existed in the case where
column name is specified.
{code}
hbase(main):001:0> get 'test', 'row1', { TIMERANGE => [0, 3000000000000],
VERSIONS => 4}
COLUMN CELL
cf:a timestamp=1302020637740, value=value3
cf:a timestamp=1302020604067, value=value2
cf:a timestamp=1302020596305, value=value1
3 row(s) in 0.3660 seconds
{code}
New patch coming.
> Get cells via shell with a time range predicate
> -----------------------------------------------

> Issue Type: New Feature

> HBase shell allows to specify a timestamp to get a value
> - get 't1', 'r1', {COLUMN => 'c1', TIMESTAMP => ts1}
> If you don't give the exact timestamp, you get nothing... so it's difficult
> to get the cell previous versions.
> It would be fine to have a "time range" predicate based get.
> The shell syntax could be (depending on technical feasibility)
> - get 't1', 'r1', {COLUMN => 'c1', TIMERANGE => (start_timestamp,
> end_timestamp)}
