As of now, there is no option to initialize the beeline. Hive Jira 5867 is related to this feature:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-5867

Thanks and Regards,

Until available as a feature, your best answer is the one that provides a workaround using -f InitFile and include in your initFile what you need to initialize.

beeline -f InitFile jdbc:hive2://WHATEVER:10000
