RDM Dataset Mapper

RDM is an open-source dataset mapper. It intends to help developers transferring data from external sources into their database.

⚠️ This is a work in progress. Do NOT use it in production unless you know what you're doing!

Installation

The project is currently only available in GitHub. To install it, clone the repository and install its dependencies with the package manager of your choice (here I'm using yarn).

git clone https://github.com/lsmacedo/rdm
cd rdm
yarn install

Usage

Although RDM is not yet available for general use, it's already possible to test it with dataset files and HTTP requests. The required steps are described below:

1. Create a new project by running yarn rdm-init
2. Update the contents of the generated rdm.json file
3. cd to the project directory
4. Execute the data transfer with yarn rdm-apply

RDM File

The RDM File contains configurations about a data migration. It includes specification for the input (dataset) and the output (database).

There is still no documentation as the file specification keeps changing during the initial stages of the project. Check one of the examples for reference on how to configure a RDM File.
