What is mydumper? Why?

  • Parallelism (hence, speed) and performance (avoids expensive character set conversion routines, efficient code overall)
  • Easier to manage output (separate files for tables, dump metadata, etc, easy to view/parse data)
  • Consistency - maintains snapshot across all threads, provides accurate master and slave log positions, etc
  • Manageability - supports PCRE for specifying database and tables inclusions and exclusions

Dependencies for building mydumper

One needs to install development tools:

  • Ubuntu or Debian:
apt-get install cmake g++ git
  • Fedora, RedHat and CentOS:
yum install -y cmake gcc gcc-c++ git make
  • MacOSX:
brew install cmake pkg-config sphinx-doc glib mysql-client [email protected] pcre
port install pkgconfig cmake

One needs to install development versions of GLib, ZLib and PCRE:

  • Ubuntu or Debian:
apt-get install libglib2.0-dev zlib1g-dev libpcre3-dev libssl-dev
  • Fedora, RedHat and CentOS:
yum install -y glib2-devel mysql-devel openssl-devel pcre-devel zlib-devel
  • openSUSE:
zypper install glib2-devel libmysqlclient-devel pcre-devel zlib-devel
  • MacOSX: port install glib2 pcre One needs to install MySQL/Percona/MariaDB development versions:
  • Ubuntu or Debian:
apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev
apt-get install libperconaserverclient20-dev
apt-get install libmariadbclient-dev 
  • Fedora, RedHat and CentOS:
yum install -y mysql-devel
yum install -y Percona-Server-devel-57
yum install -y mariadb-devel

CentOS 7 comes by default with MariaDB 5.5 libraries which are very old. It might be better to download a newer version of these libraries (MariaDB, MySQL, Percona etc).

  • openSUSE:
zypper install libmysqlclient-devel
  • MacOSX: port install mysql5 (You may want to run 'port select mysql mysql5' afterwards)

How to use mydumper

See Usage

How to install mydumper/myloader?

First get the correct url from the releases section then:

RedHat / Centos

yum install https://github.com/maxbube/mydumper/releases/download/v0.11.1-3/mydumper-0.11.1-3.el7.x86_64.rpm
yum install https://github.com/maxbube/mydumper/releases/download/v0.11.1-3/mydumper-0.11.1-3.el8.x86_64.rpm

Ubuntu / Debian

For ubuntu, you need to install the dependencies:

apt-get install libatomic1

Then you can download and install the package:

wget https://github.com/maxbube/mydumper/releases/download/v0.11.1-3/mydumper_0.11.1-3.$(lsb_release -cs)_amd64.deb
dpkg -i mydumper_0.11.1-3.$(lsb_release -cs)_amd64.deb

OSX

By using Homebrew

brew install mydumper

How to build it?

Run:

cmake .
make

One has to make sure, that pkg-config, mysql_config, pcre-config are all in $PATH

Binlog dump is disabled by default to compile with it you need to add -DWITH_BINLOG=ON to cmake options

To build against mysql libs < 5.7 you need to disable SSL adding -DWITH_SSL=OFF

How does consistent snapshot work?

This is all done following best MySQL practices and traditions:

  • As a precaution, slow running queries on the server either abort the dump, or get killed
  • Global read lock is acquired ("FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK")
  • Various metadata is read ("SHOW SLAVE STATUS","SHOW MASTER STATUS")
  • Other threads connect and establish snapshots ("START TRANSACTION WITH CONSISTENT SNAPSHOT") ** On pre-4.1.8 it creates dummy InnoDB table, and reads from it.
  • Once all worker threads announce the snapshot establishment, master executes "UNLOCK TABLES" and starts queueing jobs.

This for now does not provide consistent snapshots for non-transactional engines - support for that is expected in 0.2 :)

How to exclude (or include) databases?

Once can use --regex functionality, for example not to dump mysql and test databases:

 mydumper --regex '^(?!(mysql\.|test\.))'

To dump only mysql and test databases:

 mydumper --regex '^(mysql\.|test\.)'

To not dump all databases starting with test:

 mydumper --regex '^(?!(test))'

To dump specify tables in different databases (Note: The name of tables should end with $. related issue):

 mydumper --regex '^(db1\.table1$|db2\.table2$)'

Of course, regex functionality can be used to describe pretty much any list of tables.
