[](#quickstart)

1. **Install this package using composer:**

```
composer require webandco/flow-migrate-database

```

(or by adding the dependency to the composer manifest of an installed package)

2. **Configure source and destination database**

```
 Webandco:
   MigrateDatabase:
     connections:
       source:
         persistence:
           doctrine:
             # secondLevelCache is needed by the entitymanager
             secondLevelCache:
               enable: false
           backendOptions:
             driver: pdo_mysql
             dbname: docker
             user: someuser
             password: somepassword
             host: mysql
             charset: 'UTF8'
             defaultTableOptions:
               charset: 'UTF8'
       destination:
         persistence:
           doctrine:
             # secondLevelCache is needed by the entitymanager
             secondLevelCache:
               enable: false
           backendOptions:
             driver: pdo_pgsql
               dbname: docker
               user: user
               password: pwd
               host: postgres
               charset: 'UTF8'
               defaultTableOptions:
                 charset: 'UTF8'
```

3. **Configure commands to create table structure**

```
  Webandco:
    MigrateDatabase:
      preprocess:
        commands:
          doctrineMigrate:
            command: 'doctrine:migrate'
          someFlowpackJobQueue:
            command: 'queue:setup'
            arguments:
              queue: 'jobQueueName'
```

4. **Create table structure in destination**

```
./flow migration:createStructure

```

5. **Copy rows from source to destination**

```
./flow migration:copyTables

```

Introduction
------------

[](#introduction)

This package is meant to be installed temporarily for as long as needed to finish the migration. The migration is split in two stages:

1. Create the destination table structures, e.g. by using the command `doctrine:migrate` on the destination database
2. Copy the rows from the source database to the destination

For 1. to work on the destination database a custom `EntityManagerFactory` is used which selects database connection settings based on an environment variable.

This package does not interfere with the configured database in `Neos.Flow.persistence`, but uses custom settings for the source and destination database.
Those custom datbase settings have the same configuration options as to those of `Neos.Flow.persistence`.

Command Line Interface
----------------------

[](#command-line-interface)

Use the `webandco.migratedatabase:migration:*` commands to run the migration:

CommandDescriptionmigration:createStructureRun configured Webandco.MigrateDatabase.structure.commands on the destination databasemigration:copytablesCopy rows from the source to the destination database and update sequences as neededPerformance
-----------

[](#performance)

The insert is split into chunks and sent via `INSERT INTO [table] (col1,col2,....) VALUES (...),(...),(...),..` to the destination database.
A local test migration of around 2.6 mio rows from MySql to PostgreSQL took around 5 mins.
