CosmosTools

Tools for use with Azure Cosmos DB

Getting started

1. Clone the repo
2. dotnet build

Usage

CosmosDump

This is a bit like mongodump... at its simplest we just want to export all the documents in a database to a file.

$ ./CosmosDump -e https://mycosmosdb.documents.azure.com:443/ `
  -k mysuperlongencodedkey `
  -d MyDatabase `
  -c MyCollection

You'll get a file named MyCollection.json in your current directory.

For a full list of options run ./CosmosDump -h.

CosmosRestore

This is a bit like mongorestore... now we just want to get documents we've exported to a file back into a database.

$ ./CosmosRestore -e https://mycosmosdb.documents.azure.com:443/ `
  -k mysuperlongencodedkey `
  -d MyDatabase `
  -c MyCollection `
  -i ./MyCollection.json

Documents are expected to be 1 per line and in JSON format (basically, you want to restore a dump). CosmosRestore will bulk import 10 at a time in upsert mode.

For a full list of options run ./CosmosRestore -h.
