Package Exports

documentdbexport_timestamp

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (documentdbexport_timestamp) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

documentdbexport_timestamp

Command-line utility to export a DocumentDB database/collection to a list of JSON documents including the timestamp.

Installation

The documentdbexport package is installed via npm:

npm install -g documentdbexport_timestamp

You may need to precede the above command with sudo, depending on your Node.js installation.

Configuration

The documentdbexport is configured by setting your Azure Endpoint and URL asas environment variables:

export AZURE_ENDPOINT="https://mydocumentdb.documents.azure.com:443/"
export AZURE_KEY="GeIZysnonvgpk2"

Command-line Usage

Use the documentdbexport tool to export an entire DocumentDB collection. The database is specified with -d and the collection with -c:

$ documentdbexport -d iot -c temperaturereadings
{"temperature":8391,"time":"2017-03-09T01:38:11+0000","id":"1489023491"}
{"temperature":29130,"time":"2017-03-09T02:35:37+0000","id":"1489026937"}
{"temperature":27650,"time":"2017-03-08T18:35:58+0000","id":"1488998158"}
Export complete { records: 3, time: 0.145 }

The data can be directed to a text file:

$ documentdbexport -d iot -c temperaturereadings > mydata.txt
Export complete { records: 3, time: 0.145 }

or piped elsewhere e.g. to couchimport to import the data into Apache CouchDB:

$ documentdbexport -d iot -c temperaturereadings | couchimport --db mycouchtable --type jsonl
Export complete { records: 3, time: 0.145 }
couchimport writecomplete { total: 3, totalfailed: 0 } +20ms
couchimport Import complete

Programmatic Usage

You can also use the library within your own code:

var documentdbexport = require('documentdbexport');
var endpoint = 'https://mydocumentdb.documents.azure.com:443/';
var key = 'GeIZysnonvgpk2';
var database = 'mydatabase';
var collection = 'mycollection';
documentdbexport.exportCollection(endpoint, key, database, collection, function(err, data) {
  if (err) {
    console.error('ERROR', err)
  } else {
    console.error('Export complete', data)
  }
});
