Dump a schema using DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader

NAME

dbicdump - Dump a schema using DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader

SYNOPSIS

    dbicdump <configuration_file>
    dbicdump [-I <lib-path>] [-o <loader_option>=<value> ] \
             <schema_class> <connect_info>

Examples:

    $ dbicdump schema.conf
    $ dbicdump -o dump_directory=./lib \
      -o components='["InflateColumn::DateTime"]' \
      MyApp::Schema dbi:SQLite:./foo.db
    $ dbicdump -o dump_directory=./lib \
      -o components='["InflateColumn::DateTime"]' \
      MyApp::Schema dbi:SQLite:./foo.db '{ quote_char => "\"" }'
    $ dbicdump -Ilib -o dump_directory=./lib \
      -o components='["InflateColumn::DateTime"]' \
      -o preserve_case=1 \
      MyApp::Schema dbi:mysql:database=foo user pass \
      '{ quote_char => "`" }'
    $ dbicdump -o dump_directory=./lib \
      -o components='["InflateColumn::DateTime"]' \
      MyApp::Schema 'dbi:mysql:database=foo;host=domain.tld;port=3306' \
      user pass

On Windows that would be:

    $ dbicdump -o dump_directory=.\lib ^
      -o components="[q{InflateColumn::DateTime}]" ^
      -o preserve_case=1 ^
      MyApp::Schema dbi:mysql:database=foo user pass ^
      "{ quote_char => q{`} }"

Configuration files must have schema_class and connect_info sections, an example of a general config file is as follows:

    schema_class MyApp::Schema
    lib /extra/perl/libs
    # connection string
    <connect_info>
        dsn     dbi:mysql:example
        user    root
        pass    secret
    </connect_info>
    # dbic loader options
    <loader_options>
        dump_directory ./lib
        components     InflateColumn::DateTime
        components     TimeStamp
    </loader_options>

Using a config file requires Config::Any installed.

The optional "lib" key is equivalent to the "-I" option.

DESCRIPTION

Dbicdump generates a DBIx::Class schema using "make_schema_at" in DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader and dumps it to disk.

You can pass any DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader::Base constructor option using "-o <option>=<value>". For convenience, option names will have "-" replaced with "_" and values that look like references or quote-like operators will be "eval"-ed before being passed to the constructor.

The "dump_directory" option defaults to the current directory if not specified.
