Importing data from Kimai v1

Before importing your data from a Kimai v1 installation, please read the following carefully:

  • Data from the existing v1 installation is only read and will never be changed
  • Data can only be imported from a Kimai installation with at least v1.0.1 and database revision 1388 (check your configuration table)
  • Kimai v1 has support for activities without project assignment, a feature which Kimai v2 doesn't support (yet)
    • global activities will be transformed and created for each project which has a timesheet record linking to that activity
  • User-specific rates are not yet supported in Kimai 2
    • fixed-rates and hourly-rates for projects and activities are imported
    • fixed-rates and hourly-rates and total rate for timesheet entries are imported
  • Customers in Kimai 2 are only used for recording
    • they cannot login and no user accounts will be created for them
    • country has to be manually assigned afterwards to customers, as there is no field in Kimai v1 for that
  • You have to supply the default password that is used for every imported user, as their password will be resetted
  • Data that was deleted in Kimai v1 (user, customer, projects, activities) will be imported and set to invisible (if you don't want that, you have to delete all entries that have the value 1 in the trash column before importing)

A possible full command for import:

bin/console kimai:import-v1 "mysql://user:password@127.0.0.1:3306/database?charset=utf8" "db_prefix" "password" "country"

It is recommended to test the import in a fresh database. You can test your import as often as you like and fix possible problems in your installation. A sample command could look like that:

bin/console doctrine:schema:drop --force && bin/console doctrine:schema:create && bin/console kimai:import-v1 "mysql://kimai:test@127.0.0.1:3306/kimai?charset=latin1" "kimai_" "test123" "de"

That will drop the configured Kimai v2 database schema and re-create it, before importing the data from the mysql database at 127.0.0.1 on port 3306 authenticating the user kimai with the password test for import. The connection will use the charset latin1 and the default table prefix kimai_ for reading data. Imported users can login with the password test123 and all customer will have the country de assigned.
