DBeam

Build Status codecov.io GitHub license Maven Central

A connector tool to extract data from SQL databases and import into GCS using Apache Beam.

This tool is runnable locally, or on any other backend supported by Apache Beam, e.g. Cloud Dataflow.

DEVELOPMENT STATUS: Alpha. Usable in production already.

Overview

DBeam is tool based that reads all the data from single SQL database table, converts the data into Avro and stores it into appointed location, usually in GCS. It runs as a single threaded Apache Beam pipeline.

DBeam requires the database credentials, the database table name to read, and the output location to store the extracted data into. DBeam first makes a single select into the target table with limit one to infer the table schema. After the schema is created the job will be launched which simply streams the table contents via JDBC into target location as Avro.

dbeam-core package features

  • Support both PostgreSQL and MySQL JDBC connectors
  • Supports CloudSQL managed databases
  • Currently output only in Avro format
  • Read password from a mounted password file (--passwordFile)
  • Can filter only records of the current day with the --partitionColumn parameter
  • Check and fail on too old partition dates. Snapshot dumps are not filtered by a given date/partition, when running for a too old partition, the job fails to avoid new data in old partitions. (can be disabled with --skipPartitionCheck)
  • It has dependency on Apache Beam SDK.

dbeam command line arguments

  • --connectionUrl: the JDBC connection url to perform the dump
  • --table: the database table to query and perform the dump
  • --output: the path to store the output
  • --username: the database user name
  • --password: the database password
  • --passwordFile: a path to a local file containing the database password
  • --limit: limit the output number of rows, indefinite by default
  • --avroSchemaNamespace: the namespace of the generated avro schema, "dbeam_generated" by default
  • --partitionColumn: the name of a date/timestamp column to filter data based on current partition
  • --partition: the date of the current partition, parsed using ISODateTimeFormat.localDateOptionalTimeParser
  • --partitionPeriod: the period in which dbeam runs, used to filter based on current partition and also to check if executions are being run for a too old partition
  • --skipPartitionCheck: when partition column is not specified, by default fail when the partition parameter is not too old; use this avoid this behavior
  • --minPartitionPeriod: the minimum partition required for the job not to fail (when partition column is not specified), by default now() - 2*partitionPeriod

Building

Building and testing can be achieved with mvn:

mvn validate

In order to create a jar with all dependencies under ./dbeam-core/target/dbeam-core-shaded.jar run the following:

mvn clean package -Ppack

Usage examples

Using java from the command line:

java -cp ./dbeam-core/target/dbeam-core-shaded.jar \
  com.spotify.dbeam.jobs.JdbcAvroJob \
  --output=gs://my-testing-bucket-name/ \
  --username=my_database_username \
  --password=secret \
  --connectionUrl=jdbc:postgresql://some.database.uri.example.org:5432/my_database \
  --table=my_table

For CloudSQL:

java -cp ./dbeam-core/target/dbeam-core-shaded.jar \
  com.spotify.dbeam.jobs.JdbcAvroJob \
  --output=gs://my-testing-bucket-name/ \
  --username=my_database_username \
  --password=secret \
  --connectionUrl=jdbc:postgresql://google/database?socketFactory=com.google.cloud.sql.postgres.SocketFactory&socketFactoryArg=project:region:cloudsql-instance \
  --table=my_table

To run a cheap data extraction, as a way to validate, one can run:

java -cp ./dbeam-core/target/dbeam-core-shaded.jar \
  com.spotify.dbeam.jobs.JdbcAvroJob \
  --output=gs://my-testing-bucket-name/ \
  --username=my_database_username \
  --password=secret \
  --connectionUrl=jdbc:postgresql://some.database.uri.example.org:5432/my_database \
  --table=my_table \
  --limit=10 \
  --skipPartitionCheck

Password configuration

Database password can be configured by simply passing --password=writepasswordhere, --passwordFile=/path/to/file/containing/password or --passwordFile=gs://gcs-bucket/path/to/file/containing/password.

A more robust configuration is to point to a Google KMS encrypted file. DBeam will try to decrypt using KMS if the file ends with .encrypted (e.g. --passwordFileKmsEncrypted=gs://gcs-bucket/path/to/db-password.encrypted).

The file should contain a base64 encoded encrypted content. It can be generated using gcloud like the following:

echo "super_secret_password" \
  | gcloud kms encrypt \
      --location "global" \
      --keyring "dbeam" \
      --key "default" \
      --project "mygcpproject" \
      --plaintext-file - \
      --ciphertext-file - \
  | base64 \
  | gsutil cp - gs://gcs-bucket/path/to/db-password.encrypted

KMS location, keyring, and key can be configured via Java Properties, defaults are:

java \
  -DKMS_KEYRING=dbeam \
  -DKMS_KEY=default \
  -DKMS_LOCATION=global \
  -DKMS_PROJECT=default_gcp_project \
  -cp ./dbeam-core/target/dbeam-core-shaded.jar \
  com.spotify.dbeam.jobs.JdbcAvroJob \
  ...

Using as a library

To include DBeam library in a mvn project add the following dependency in pom.xml:

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.spotify</groupId>
  <artifactId>dbeam-core</artifactId>
  <version>${dbeam.version}</version>
</dependency>

To include DBeam library in a SBT project add the following dependency in build.sbt:

  libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
   "com.spotify" % "dbeam-core" % dbeamVersion
  )

Development

Make sure you have mvn installed. For editor, IntelliJ IDEA is recommended.

To test and verify changes during development, run:

mvn validate

Or:

mvn validate -Pcoverage
