Before this change, users needed to manually inspect debug logs to
determine which databases were available before running `workload init
workload_generator`. This required opening the debug zip and examining
the `crdb_internal.create_statements.txt` file.
This commit adds a `--list-dbs` flag that scans the debug logs and
prints all user databases (excluding system databases: system, postgres,
defaultdb, and NULL entries). The flag exits immediately after printing
to prevent duplicate output from multiple PreCreate hook invocations.
This commit also adds a comprehensive README.md for the workload_generator
package that documents all features, flags, and usage patterns.
Example usage:
./cockroach workload init workload_generator \
'postgresql://...' \
--debug-logs=/path/to/debug/logs \
--list-dbs
Release note (cli change): Added a `--list-dbs` flag to `workload init
workload_generator` that lists all user databases found in debug logs
without initializing tables. This helps users discover which databases
are available in the debug zip before running the full init command.
