A Node.js script to migrate MySQL data to MongoDB, mapping MySQL tables to MongoDB collections.
Supports migrations over network, use cases:
- MySQL database hosted in GCP, to MongoDB hosted in Digital Ocean,
- MySQL local database, to MongoDB Atlas,
- MySQL database hosted in Linode, to local MongoDB instance,
- And so much more ...
Will allow migrations from and to remote sites.
Open terminal/command promt and follow any of below methods.
Before you continue, ensure you have Node.js installed in your system. See here for more instructions. If you have it installed, you can continue below.
Method I (For developers)
- Clone project
git clone https://github.com/LoveNui/ETL-MySQL-Node-MongoDB.git
- Change working directory
cd mysql-mongo-etl
- Install dependencies
npm install
- Make it happen 😉
npm run migrate
Method II (This is for non-developers/non technical guys)
- Install package globally
npm install -g mysql-mongo-etl
- Run command
mysql-mongo-etl
For both methods, you will be prompted to enter authentication credentials for your MySQL and MongoDB databases. Ensure you have access credentials that have read/write roles enabled, or else you will encounter errors.
Issues might occur if you don't have authentication set up in your MongoDB database, as read and write roles are required when inserting bulk data into MongoDB.
Follow below steps to enable authentication in your server:
This set up is for Linux distros only. Check online for your operating system if not a linux distro.
-
Login to your server and create a user for your database.
$ mongo
mongo~$ use databaseName mongo~$ db.createUser({user: "username", pwd: "password", role: [{roles: "readWrite", db: "databaseName"}]})
Replace with your preferred credentials. You will use them to do migration in the other steps
-
Exit the mongo shell and restart mongod service.
-
Uncomment the following code block at the bottom of
/etc/mongo.conf
, or add if not available.sudo vi /etc/mongo.conf
# security: # authorization: enabled
-
After enabling authentication and create a user with appropriate credentials, restart your mongo instance for this to take effect
sudo service restart mongo
You should be ready to migrate your data now. Follow Method I or Method II as above.
- Retrieve MySQL database models and data
- Generate Mongoose schemas in Typescript
- Dump MySQL data to MongoDB
- Support migrations over the network
- Prevent duplicates in subsequent migrations
