NAME
diff-pg-schema - Diff two PostgreSQL database schemas
VERSION
This document describes version 0.002 of diff-pg-schema (from Perl distribution App-DiffDBSchemaUtils), released on 2018-12-03.
SYNOPSIS
Usage:
% diff-pg-schema [options] <db1> <db2>
DESCRIPTION
Convenient thin wrapper for diff_db_schema
, when you have two PostgreSQL databases. Instead of having to specify two DSN's, you just specify two database names.
OPTIONS
*
marks required options.
Db connection options
- --db1=s*
-
Name of the first PostgreSQL database.
- --db2=s*
-
Name of the second PostgreSQL database.
- --password1=s
- --password2=s
- --username1=s
- --username2=s
Output options
- --format=s
-
Choose output format, e.g. json, text.
Default value:
undef
- --json
-
Set output format to json.
- --naked-res
-
When outputing as JSON, strip result envelope.
Default value:
0
By default, when outputing as JSON, the full enveloped result is returned, e.g.:
[200,"OK",[1,2,3],{"func.extra"=>4}]
The reason is so you can get the status (1st element), status message (2nd element) as well as result metadata/extra result (4th element) instead of just the result (3rd element). However, sometimes you want just the result, e.g. when you want to pipe the result for more post-processing. In this case you can use `--naked-res` so you just get:
[1,2,3]
Other options
COMPLETION
This script has shell tab completion capability with support for several shells.
bash
To activate bash completion for this script, put:
complete -C diff-pg-schema diff-pg-schema
in your bash startup (e.g. ~/.bashrc). Your next shell session will then recognize tab completion for the command. Or, you can also directly execute the line above in your shell to activate immediately.
It is recommended, however, that you install modules using cpanm-shcompgen which can activate shell completion for scripts immediately.
tcsh
To activate tcsh completion for this script, put:
complete diff-pg-schema 'p/*/`diff-pg-schema`/'
in your tcsh startup (e.g. ~/.tcshrc). Your next shell session will then recognize tab completion for the command. Or, you can also directly execute the line above in your shell to activate immediately.
It is also recommended to install shcompgen (see above).
other shells
For fish and zsh, install shcompgen as described above.
