migrate

Install the latest Dgraph binary from source

curl https://get.dgraph.io -sSf | bash

Create a config.properties file that has the following options (values should not be in quotes):

user = <the user for logging in to the SQL database>
password = <the password for logging in to the SQL database>
db = <the SQL database to be migrated>

Export the SQL database into a schema and RDF file, e.g. the schema.txt and sql.rdf file below

dgraph migrate --config config.properties --output_schema schema.txt --output_data sql.rdf

If you are connecting to a remote DB (something hosted on AWS, GCP, etc...), you need to pass the following flags

-- host <the host of your remote DB>
-- port <if anything other than 3306>


Import the data into Dgraph with the live loader (the example below is connecting to the Dgraph zero and alpha servers running on the default ports)

```bash
dgraph live -z localhost:5080 -a localhost:9080 --files sql.rdf --format=rdf --schema schema.txt
