NAME

DBIx::Class::Migration::Script::Help::populate - Install fixtures to a database

SYNOPSIS

dbic-migration populate --fixture_set core --fixture_set countries

DESCRIPTION

Installs a prepared migration to either the current schema version or the target version specified via "to_version" to the database connected via the "dsn", "username" and "password" (or to a developer level sandbox as defined by the "sandbox_type").

You can't install to a database if the tables already exist. See drop_tables.

OPTIONS

This command accepts the following options. You may learn more about each option by typing dbic-migration help OPTION. The following is a summary.

fixture_sets (fixture_sets)

Required. The fixture configuration set names (basically these are the file names of your fixture configurations, without the '.json' part.

includes (I,lib,libs,include)

Optional.

Adds the listed paths to @INC. Handy during development when you want to use a development schema class.

schema_class (S)

Accepts Str. Required.

This is the schema we use as the basis for creating, managing and running your deployments. This should be the full package namespace defining your subclass of DBIx::Class::Schema. For example MyApp::Schema.

If the "schema_class" cannot be loaded, a hard exception will be thrown.
