I want to import dump data from my .gz
file.
Location of file is home/Alex/Documents/Abc/dump.gz
and the name of db is "Alex"
.
I have tried mongorestore --gzip --db "Alex" /home/Alex/Documents/Abc/dump.gz
But it shows error:
2018-10-31T12:54:58.359+0530 the --db and --collection args should
only be used when restoring from a BSON file. Other uses are
deprecated and will not exist in the future; use --nsInclude instead
2018-10-31T12:54:58.359+0530 Failed: file
/home/Alex/Documents/Abc/dump.gz does not have .bson extension.
How can I import it?
Dump command:
mongodump --host localhost:27017 --gzip --db Alex --out ./testSO
Restore Command:
mongorestore --host localhost:27017 --gzip --db Alex ./testSO/Alex
Works perfectly!
Dump command:
mongodump --host localhost:27017 --archive=dump.gz --gzip --db Alex
Restore Command:
mongorestore --host localhost:27017 --gzip --archive=dump.gz --db Alex
Note:- While using archive you need to stick with the
database name
.
Different database name or collection name is not supported. For more info.
