arangorestore

arangorestore allows you to restore logical backups of the data into your database created by arangodump.

Importing data

tip

Please replace the content in <> with your deployment specific information

• If you are using ArangoGraph the port is typically 18529 and NOT 8529; 8529 is only used for the WebUI for ArangoGraph
• If you are using a manual deployment the port is typically 8529 or whatever specific port you configured with port mapping (docker/k8s)

1. Extract the travel-data-dump.zip into a folder of your choice on your local machine

2. Use the following syntax to import the provided dump into your database:

   arangorestore  --server.endpoint <protocol>://<hostname>:<port> \
   --create-collection true \
   --import-data true \
   --overwrite true \
   --server.username <username> \
   --input-directory <extracted dump directory> \

   Example output:

   > arangorestore   --server.endpoint http+ssl://54a63d5bf946.arangodb.cloud:18529 --server.username 'root' --create-collection true --overwrite true --input-directory dump
