mongo-clone-action

A simple github action to trigger mongoDB database clones via mongodump & mongorestore
It will overwrite any existing target database with the source database.

Example

Trigger manually when needed with workflow_dispatch

.github/workflows/clone-db.yml

name: MongoDB Clone
on: [workflow_dispatch]
jobs:
  mongo-clone-action:
    runs-on: ubuntu-22.04
    name: Clone MongoDB
    steps:
    - uses: Maggi64/mongo-clone-action@0.3
      with:
        source: mongodb+srv://<DB_USER>:<DB_PASSWORD>@<DB_HOST>/<SOURCE_DB_NAME>
        target: mongodb+srv://<DB_USER>:<DB_PASSWORD>@<DB_HOST>/<TARGET_DB_NAME>

It is highly recommended storing the database user and password via github secrets.

  source: ${{ secrets.DB_CONNECT_URI }}/<SOURCE_DB_NAME>
  target: ${{ secrets.DB_CONNECT_URI }}/<TARGET_DB_NAME>
