Copy data from any source to any destination without any code

ingestr is a command-line app that allows you to ingest data from any source into any destination using simple command-line flags, no code necessary.

• ✨ copy data from your database into any destination
• ➕ incremental loading: append, merge or delete+insert
• 🐍 single-command installation

ingestr takes away the complexity of managing any backend or writing any code for ingesting data, simply run the command and watch the data land on its destination.

We recommend using uv to run ingestr.

pip install uv
uvx ingestr

Alternatively, if you'd like to install it globally:

uv pip install --system ingestr

While installation with vanilla pip is possible, it's an order of magnitude slower.

ingestr ingest \
    --source-uri 'postgresql://admin:admin@localhost:8837/web?sslmode=disable' \
    --source-table 'public.some_data' \
    --dest-uri 'bigquery://<your-project-name>?credentials_path=/path/to/service/account.json' \
    --dest-table 'ingestr.some_data'

That's it.

This command:

• gets the table public.some_data from the Postgres instance.
• uploads this data to your BigQuery warehouse under the schema ingestr and table some_data.
