How export database from mssql by using command line

Assuming you've the right permissions, try:

SqlCmd -E -S Server_Name –Q "BACKUP DATABASE [Name_of_Database] TO DISK=’X:PathToBackupLocation[Name_of_Database].bak'"

Note: Instead of -E, you can use -U and -P to specify user credentials.

Then to restore, use the following syntax:

SqlCmd -E -S Server_Name –Q "RESTORE DATABASE [Name_of_Database] FROM DISK=’X:PathToBackupFile[File_Name].bak'"

The -i is to import a procedure/table/whatever from a file and there is a -o option to output a table/procedure to a file. See sqlcmd.
