mongo-connector-transaction 1.7.0

Installation

To install mongo-connector-transaction with the MongoDB doc manager suitable for replicating data to MongoDB, use pip:

pip install mongo-connector-transaction

The install command can be customized to include the Doc Managers and any extra dependencies for the target system.

You may have to run pip with sudo, depending on where you’re installing mongo-connector and what privileges you have.

System V Service

Mongo Connector provides support for installing and uninstalling itself as a service daemon under System V Init on Linux. Following install of the package, install or uninstall using the following command:

$ python -m mongo_connector.service.system-v [un]install

Development

You can also install the development version of mongo-connector manually:

git clone https://github.com/AmrAdelKhalil/mongo-connector
pip install ./mongo-connector

Using mongo-connector

mongo-connector replicates operations from the MongoDB oplog, so a replica set must be running before startup. For development purposes, you may find it convenient to run a one-node replica set (note that this is not recommended for production):

mongod --replSet myDevReplSet

To initialize your server as a replica set, run the following command in the mongo shell:

rs.initiate()

Once the replica set is running, you may start mongo-connector. The simplest invocation resembles the following:

mongo-connector-transaction -m <mongodb server hostname>:<replica set port> \
                -t <replication endpoint URL, e.g. http://localhost:8983/solr> \
                -d <name of doc manager, e.g., solr_doc_manager>

mongo-connector has many other options besides those demonstrated above. To get a full listing with descriptions, try mongo-connector-transaction --help. You can also use mongo-connector with a configuration file.
