MySqlDiff.CliTool - dotnet mysqldiff

EXPERIMENTAL Database diffing and migration tool for MySQL.

Project format

The tool operates on a project directory structure like this:

/tables
  /*.sql
/triggers
  /*.sql
/procedures
  /*.sql
/seeds
  /*.sql

Users maintain the database schema and seeds by writing plain CREATE TABLE, CREATE PROCEDURE, CREATE TRIGGER, INSERT statements in SQL files under the tables, triggers, procedures and seeds directories.

The tool parses the database structure from these files, compares with a live database instance, and generates SQL to migrate the schema.

Commands

dotnet mysqldiff diff --source ... --target ...
dotnet mysqldiff copy  --source ... --output ...

diff

Compares two projects and generates SQL with the difference. Can be used to generate both up and down migration scripts by reversing the source and target arguments.

Options:
  --source <TYPE>                    fs, db or null
  --source-fs-path <PATH>            Project directory. Only used with --source fs
  --source-db-cs <CONNECTIONSTRING>  MySQL connection string. Only used with --source db
  --target <TYPE>                    fs, db or null
  --target-fs-path <PATH>            Project directory. Only used with --target fs
  --target-db-cs <CONNECTIONSTRING>  MySQL connection string. Only used with --target db

The 'null' source or target type specifies an empty project, which thusly generates SQL to create or delete the entire database.

copy

Reads a project and saves it to the file syste. Can be used to export an initial project from a live database instance.

  --source <TYPE>                    fs, db or null
  --source-fs-path <PATH>            Project directory. Only used with --source fs
  --source-db-cs <CONNECTIONSTRING>  MySQL connection string. Only used with --source db
  --output <PATH>                    Where to save the output
