# hop import

Hop Import is a command line tool to import PDI/Kettle jobs and transformations into Apache Hop.

Hop Import does a lot more than just a code conversion from jobs to workflows and transformations to pipelines: database connections are converted to Apache Hop rdbms connections, variables are parsed and imported, and everything is bundled into a full Apache Hop project.
