Building -------- [](#building) This tool may be built as a stand-alone phar file by using the following commands: ``` git clone https://github.com/liutec/neo4jtransfer.git cd neo4jtransfer composer install ./bin/build ./neo4jtransfer.phar help ``` Commands and arguments ---------------------- [](#commands-and-arguments) The following commands are available: ### The dump command [](#the-dump-command) Dump all nodes and relations from a Neo4j database into a cypher file. #### Dump command example [](#dump-command-example) The following command will dump all nodes and relations from `neo4j1-prod` into a file. (eg. dump-neo4j1-prod-20160615-233212.cypher) ``` ./neo4jtransfer.phar dump --output=default --source-host=neo4j1-prod ``` #### Dump command arguments [](#dump-command-arguments) ArgumentDefault valueDescription`--source-host``localhost`Neo4j source server hostname.`--source-port``7474`Neo4j source server port.`--source-user``neo4j`Neo4j source server username.`--source-password``neo4j`Neo4j source server password.`--output``STDOUT`Cypher output filename. If unspecified, will use STDOUT. Set to `default` to use `dump-[source-host]-[yyyyMMdd]-[hhmmss].cypher``--read-batch-size``300`The number of nodes and relations to read at once.`--node-batch-size``100`The number of nodes to write as part of a single cypher query or batch.`--relation-batch-size``150`The number of relations to write as part of a single cypher query or batch.`--ignore-relation-properties``none`Comma separated values of properties to be ignored for relations. . (eg. creationDate,modificationDate)`--preserve-ids``none`Comma separated list of label attributes to treat as Node IDs. (eg. Job.ownerId,Action.userId)`--clean``true`Set to `false` not to clean target database before importing. By default all nodes and relations will be removed.`--transactional``false`Set to `true` to wrap all cyphers in a transaction. Non-transactional by default.`--import-label``_ilb`The name of the label set on imported nodes to create a temporary index with which to quicker identify nodes when transferring relations. This label and the index on it will be removed after the import.`--import-id-key``_iid`The name of the key used to hold the node IDs as imported. This attribute and the index on it will be removed after the import.### The import command [](#the-import-command) Run cypher queries from a file. #### Import command example [](#import-command-example) The following command will look for the latest dump corresponding to the `neo4j1-prod` host (eg. dump-neo4j1-prod-20160615-233212.cypher) and execute the cypher queries within onto the Neo4j database on `localhost`. ``` ./neo4jtransfer.phar import --input=last:neo4j1-prod ``` #### Import command arguments [](#import-command-arguments) ArgumentDefault valueDescription`--input``STDIN`Cypher input filename. If unspecified, will use STDIN. Set to `last:[hostname]` to use `dump-[hostname]-[yyyyMMdd]-[hhmmss].cypher` with the latest timestamp.`--target-host``localhost`Neo4j target server hostname.`--target-port``7474`Neo4j target server port.`--target-user``neo4j`Neo4j target server username.`--target-password``neo4j`Neo4j target server password.### The direct transfer command [](#the-direct-transfer-command) Transfer nodes and relations from one Neo4j database into another without an intermediary dump file. #### Direct transfer command example [](#direct-transfer-command-example) The following command will transfer all nodes and relations from `neo4j1-prod` into `app1-dev` within a single transaction. ``` ./neo4jtransfer.phar direct --source-host=neo4j1-prod --target-host=app1-dev --transactional ``` #### Direct transfer command arguments [](#direct-transfer-command-arguments) ArgumentDefault valueDescription`--source-host``localhost`Neo4j source server hostname.`--source-port``7474`Neo4j source server port.`--source-user``neo4j`Neo4j source server username.`--source-password``neo4j`Neo4j source server password.`--target-host``localhost`Neo4j target server hostname.`--target-port``7474`Neo4j target server port.`--target-user``neo4j`Neo4j target server username.`--target-password``neo4j`Neo4j target server password.`--read-batch-size``300`The number of nodes and relations to read at once.`--node-batch-size``100`The number of nodes to write as part of a single cypher query or batch.`--relation-batch-size``150`The number of relations to write as part of a single cypher query or batch.`--ignore-relation-properties``none`Comma separated values of properties to be ignored for relations. .

Non-transactional by default.### The transfer command [](#the-transfer-command) Transfer nodes and relations from one Neo4j database into another and save all cypher queries to a dump file. #### Transfer command example [](#transfer-command-example) The following command will transfer all nodes and relations from `neo4j1-prod` into `app1-dev` within a single transaction and create a dump file for backup. (eg. dump-neo4j1-prod-20160615-233212.cypher) ``` ./neo4jtransfer.phar transfer --output=default --source-host=neo4j1-prod --target-host=app1-dev ``` #### Transfer command arguments [](#transfer-command-arguments) ArgumentDefault valueDescription`--source-host``localhost`Neo4j source server hostname.`--source-port``7474`Neo4j source server port.`--source-user``neo4j`Neo4j source server username.`--source-password``neo4j`Neo4j source server password.`--output``STDOUT`Cypher output filename.
