NAME

       sqlt-diff - find the differences b/w two schemas

SYNOPSIS

       For help:

	 sqlt-diff -h|--help

       For a list of all valid parsers:

	 sqlt -l|--list

       To diff two schemas:

	 sqlt-diff [options] file_name1=parser1 file_name2=parser2

       Options:

	 -d|--debug   Show debugging info
	 -t|--trace   Turn on tracing for Parse::RecDescent
	 -c|--case-insensitive	 Compare tables/columns case-insensitively
	 --ignore-index-names	 Ignore index name differences
	 --ignore-constraint-names   Ignore constraint name differences
	 --mysql_parser_version=<#####> Specify a target MySQL parser version
					for dealing with /*! comments
	 --output-db=<Producer>  This Producer will be used instead of one
				 corresponding to parser1 to format output
				 for new tables
	 --ignore-view-sql    Ignore view SQL differences
	 --ignore-proc-sql    Ignore procedure SQL differences
	 --no-batch-alters    Do not clump multile alters to the same table into a
			      single ALTER TABLE statement where possible.
	 --quote=<character>  Use <character> to quote all table and field
			      names in statements

DESCRIPTION

       sqlt-diff is a utility for creating a file of SQL commands necessary to transform the first schema provided to the second.  While not yet
       exhaustive in its ability to mutate the entire schema, it will report the following

       o   New tables

	   Using the Producer class of the target (second) schema, any tables missing in the first schema will be generated in their entirety
	   (fields, constraints, indices).

       o   Missing/altered fields

	   Any fields missing or altered between the two schemas will be reported as:

	     ALTER TABLE <table_name>
	       [DROP <field_name>]
	       [CHANGE <field_name> <datatype> (<size>)] ;

       o   Missing/altered indices

	   Any indices missing or of a different type or on different fields will be indicated.  Indices that should be dropped will be reported
	   as such:

	     DROP INDEX <index_name> ON <table_name> ;

	   An index of a different type or on different fields will be reported as a new index as such:

	     CREATE [<index_type>] INDEX [<index_name>] ON <table_name>
	       ( <field_name>[,<field_name>] ) ;

       ALTER, CREATE, DROP statements are created by SQL::Translator::Producer::*, see there for support/problems.

       Currently (v0.0900), only MySQL is supported by this code.

NAME

       SQL::Translator::Filter::Globals - Add global fields and indices to all tables.

SYNOPSIS

	 # e.g. Add timestamp field to all tables.
	 use SQL::Translator;

	 my $sqlt = SQL::Translator->new(
	     from => 'MySQL',
	     to   => 'MySQL',
	     filters => [
	       Globals => {
		   fields => [
		       {
			   name => 'modified'
			   data_type => 'TIMESTAMP'
		       }
		   ],
		   indices => [
		       {
			   fields => 'modifed',
		       },
		   ]
		   constraints => [
		       {
		       }
		   ]
	       },
	     ],
	 ) || die "SQLFairy error : ".SQL::Translator->error;
	 my $sql = $sqlt->translate || die "SQLFairy error : ".$sqlt->error;

DESCRIPTION

       Adds global fields, indices and constraints to all tables in the schema.  The globals to add can either be defined in the filter args or
       using a _GLOBAL_ table (see below).

       If a table already contains a field with the same name as a global then it is skipped for that table.

   The _GLOBAL_ Table
       An alternative to using the args is to add a table called "_GLOBAL_" to the schema and then just use the filter. Any fields and indices
       defined on this table will be added to all the tables in the schema and the _GLOBAL_ table removed.

       The name of the global can be changed using a "global_table" arg to the filter.

BUGS

       Will generate duplicate indices if an index already exists on a table the same as one added globally.

       Will generate duplicate constraints if a constraint already exists on a table the same as one added globally.

TODO

       Some extra data values that can be used to control the global addition. e.g.  'skip_global'.
