# 🐳 Docker Storage Migration Tool 📦
A command-line utility for seamlessly exporting and importing Docker volumes and bind mounts.
## 🔍 Overview
DSMT (Docker Storage Migration Tool) provides a simple way to:
- 📤 Export Docker volumes or bind mounts to compressed tarballs.
- 📥 Import compressed tarballs into Docker volumes or bind mounts.
🔄 This tool makes it easy to backup, restore, or migrate Docker storage across systems.
## 💻 Installation
```bash
npm install -g dsmt
```
## 🚀 Usage
### 📤 Exporting Docker Storage
Export a Docker volume:
```bash
dsmt export volume_name /path/to/export/directory
```
Export a bind mount:
```bash
dsmt export /path/to/bind/mount /path/to/export/directory
```
### 📥 Importing Docker Storage
Import to a Docker volume:
```bash
dsmt import /path/to/tarball.tar.gz volume_name
```
Import to a bind mount:
```bash
dsmt import /path/to/tarball.tar.gz /path/to/bind/mount
```
## ⚙️ Options
Both commands support the following options:
- `-v, --volume`: Explicitly specify source/destination as a Docker volume
- `-m, --mount`: Explicitly specify source/destination as a bind mount
The tool will automatically detect the source/destination type in most cases, but you can use these flags to be explicit.
## 📋 Examples
```bash
# Export a volume named 'mongodb_data' to the current directory
dsmt export mongodb_data ./
# Import a tarball to a new volume
dsmt import ./mongodb_data.tar.gz new_mongodb_data
# Export a bind mount to the /backups directory
dsmt export /var/www/html /backups
# Import a tarball to a bind mount
dsmt import ./html.tar.gz /var/www/html
```
