Exporting Data for Offline Processing in PHP: ArangoDB Guide

A few weeks ago I wrote about ArangoDB’s specialized export API.

The export API is useful when the goal is to extract all documents from a given collection and to process them outside of ArangoDB.

The export API can provide quick and memory-efficient snapshots of the data in the underlying collection, making it suitable for extract all documents of the collection. It will be able to provide data much faster than with an AQL query that will extract all documents.

In this post I’ll show how to use the export API to extract data and process it with PHP.

Jan is now a senior C/C++ developer with the ArangoDB core team, being there from version 0.1. He is mostly working on performance optimization, storage engines and the querying functionality. He also wrote most of AQL (ArangoDB’s query language).
