I am new in magento commerce cloud. I need to setup the magento store in my local system. I have downloaded the files from the commerce git and it is working fine. But how can I access the database? I need to import the database to my local system. I have created the database backup using the below command.

vendor/bin/ece-tools db-dump

How can I download it in to my local system? Please help me

As MSA has noted, you can ssh into the machine and use ece-tools db-dump and then rsync the database dump down locally.Here is the rsync command

 rsync -avzh <SSH URL>:/tmp/<BACKUP NAME> ./

Another option is to utilize the magento-cloud CLI utility. You can download the CLI utility with these instructions: https://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.1/cloud/before/before-workspace-magento-prereqs.html#cloud-ssh-cli-cli-install

Once you have that installed you can create a dump like this: magento-cloud db:dump -p <PROJECT ID> -e <ENVIRONMENT NAME>

The `magento-cloud CLI will also allow you to open up an SSH tunnel to the database so you could access it locally.

  • I have created the dump. Now I need to download it into my local system. – Jancy Abraham Jun 25 '19 at 7:50

    You just need to rsync it local. Something like this should work: rsync -avzh <SSH URL>:/tmp/<BACKUP NAME> ./ – Billy Gilbert Jun 27 '19 at 15:04

db-dump (ece-tools; recommended)

You may dump your DB using the ECE-Tools command:

To update the ece-tools package:

On your local workstation, perform an update using Composer.

composer update magento/ece-tools

If you cannot update beyond ece-tools version 2002.0.8, follow the upgrade steps.

Add, commit, and push your code changes.

git add -A && git commit -m "Update magento/ece-tools" && git push origin <branch name>

After test validation, merge this branch to the Integration branch.

vendor/bin/ece-tools db-dump

This the recommended and the safest option.

Download Database

  1. We recommend putting the application in maintenance mode before doing a database dump in Production environments.
  2. The command creates an archive in your local project directory called dump-<timestamp>.sql.gz.
  3. If an error occurs during the dump, the command deletes the dump file to conserve disk space. Review the logs for details (/var/log/cloud.log).

  • I have created the backup using this command vendor/bin/ece-tools db-dump. It creates the backup in /tmp folder. How can I download it into my local workstation – Jancy Abraham Jun 25 '19 at 3:16
  • Check updated answer @jancy – Arunprabakaran M Jun 25 '19 at 6:47
  • Yes the command creates an archive dump-<timestamp>.sql.gz. in my /tmp directory. Not in my project directory – Jancy Abraham Jun 25 '19 at 6:49
  • mysqldump -u {user} -p {database} | gzip > {database}.sql.gz – Arunprabakaran M Jun 25 '19 at 6:51
  • Did you try this? – Arunprabakaran M Jun 25 '19 at 6:51
