mongo-sync

Sync Remote and Local MongoDB Databases in Bash. Works with Heroku too!

For all the Rubyists out there, I’ve converted this in to a Ruby Gem as well.

Usage

• Download / Clone the script

    git clone https://github.com/sheharyarn/mongo-sync.git
    cd mongo-sync

• Edit config.yml and insert your configuration details

• Use the script like this:

    ./mongo-sync push [options]        # Push DB to Remote
    ./mongo-sync pull [options]        # Pull DB to Local

• Options

    -y  # Skip confirmation
    --config alternate-config-file.yml

Notes

• mongo-sync requires mongodump and mongorestore binaries to be installed in your system. If you have mongodb installed, then you probably already have them
• Pushing/Pulling overwrites the Target DB
• It’s a good idea to keep your config.yml in .gitignore if you’re using it inside some other project

TODO

• Add a --no-overwrite flag+feature that doesn’t drop the target db before restoring it, and actually tries to sync it
• Add a backup command and an --auto-backup feature
• Add more options for Local DB in config.yml

Contributing

3. Commit your changes (git commit -am 'Add some feature')
4. Push to the branch (git push origin feature/my-feature)
