What's Embulk?

Embulk is a parallel bulk data loader that helps data transfer between various storages, databases, NoSQL and cloud services.

Embulk supports plugins to add functions. You can share the plugins to keep your custom scripts readable, maintainable, and reusable.

Using plugins

You can use plugins to load data from/to various systems and file formats. Here is the list of publicly released plugins: list of plugins by category.

An example is embulk-output-command plugin. It executes an external command to output the records.

To install plugins, you can use embulk gem install <name> command:

embulk gem install embulk-output-command
embulk gem list

Embulk bundles some built-in plugins such as embulk-encoder-gzip or embulk-formatter-csv. You can use those plugins with following configuration file:

in:
  type: file
  path_prefix: "./try1/csv/sample_"
  ...
out:
  type: command
  command: "cat - > task.$INDEX.$SEQID.csv.gz"
  encoders:
    - {type: gzip}
  formatter:
    type: csv

Resuming a failed transaction

Embulk supports resuming failed transactions. To enable resuming, you need to start transaction with -r PATH option:

embulk run config.yml -r resume-state.yml

If the transaction fails, embulk stores state some states to the yaml file. You can retry the transaction using exactly same command:

embulk run config.yml -r resume-state.yml

If you give up on resuming the transaction, you can use embulk cleanup subcommand to delete intermediate data:

embulk cleanup config.yml -r resume-state.yml

Using plugin bundle

embulk mkbundle subcommand creates a isolated bundle of plugins. You can install plugins (gems) to the bundle directory instead of ~/.embulk directory. This makes it easy to manage versions of plugins. To use the bundle, add -b <bundle_dir> option to guess, preview, or run subcommand. embulk mkbundle also generates some example plugins to <bundle_dir>/embulk/*.rb directory.

See the generated <bundle_dir>/Gemfile file how to plugin bundles work.

embulk mkbundle ./embulk_bundle  # please edit ./embulk_bundle/Gemfile to add plugins. Detailed usage is written in the Gemfile
embulk guess -b ./embulk_bundle ...
embulk run   -b ./embulk_bundle ...
