Importing tpc-h testdata into mongodb

As written in a former post, tpc-h offers an easy possiblity to generate various amounts of testdata. Download dbgen from this website and compile it: http://www.tpc.org/tpch/

now run

./dbgen -v -s 0.1

this should leave you with some *.tbl files (PIPE separated csvfiles). Now you can use my scripts to convert them into json an import them into mongodb.
i packed already some generated files into the archive and added the header, so you don’t have to generate the tbl-files by yourself. You only have to adjust the load_into_mongodb.sh script so it loads into the correct database (if test is not ok for you).

if you use your own generated tpl files you have to run: create_mongodb_headers.sh
first

mongodb_tpch.tar.bz2

tar -xjvvf mongodb_tpch.tar.bz2
cd mongodb_tpch
./convert_to_json.sh
./load_into_mongodb.sh

the default script imports the data into the db “test” and collections named like the tpc-h tables.
