Command line tool to download FTDC data from mongodb clusters.
To download FTDC data from a mongodb cluster you need to provide some input to the CLI:
- Group key: The group key (or: project id) the respective cluster belongs too. It is encoded into the link you get from atlas when selecting the specific cluster on Atlas UI (e.g.
cloud.mongodb.com/v2/{group key}/clusters
) - Replicaset name: The name of the replica set the data should be loaded from. You can either provide the direct targeted replica set name (e.g.
atlas-<something>-shard-0
) or the name of the shard (e.gsome-name-shard-00
). Do not forget the number here as it qualifies the shard in case you want data from a sharded cluster. For a standalone replica set it is00
but lets say for a sharded cluster with 3 shards it would be00
,01
,02
. - API key: You need to have a valid API key for at least the cluster you want to download FTDC data from. The credential can be provided by parameters (
--atlas-public-key
,--atlas-private-key
) or environment variables (ATLAS_PUBLIC_KEY
,ATLAS_PRIVATE_KEY
)
ftdc --group-key <group key> \
--replica-set-name <rs name> \
--atlas-public-key <public key> \
--atlas-private-key <private key>
The data is downloaded to the current directory as a *.tar.gz
file.
Install with brew for macOS (amd4/arm64) or Linux (amd64).
brew tap maoertel/tap
brew install ftdc
If you have cargo
installed just execute the following command to install ftdc
on your machine.
cargo install ftdc
Check this repo out and execute the following command:
cargo build --bin ftdc --features "build-binary" --release
You can download binaries for macOS (amd4/arm64) or Linux (amd64) from the github release page.
