upgrade_tables

NAME

Jifty::Script::Schema - Create SQL to update or create your Jifty app's tables

SYNOPSIS

  jifty schema --setup      Creates or updates your application's database tables

 Options:
   --print              Print SQL, rather than executing commands

   --create-database  Creates the database, if necessary
   --drop-database    Drops the database before creating, in conjunction with B<--create>

   --include libpath  add libpath to C<@INC> (can be used multiple times)
   -I        libpath
   --help             brief help message
   --man              full documentation

OPTIONS

ProjectRoot defaults to the current directory.

--print

Rather than actually running the database create/update/drop commands, Prints the commands to standard output

--create-database

Send CREATE DATABASE command

--drop-database

Send DROP DATABASE command, if used in conjunction with --create

--setup

Actually set up your app's tables (create or update as needed)

--include libpath, -I libpath

Prepends libpath to Perl's @INC array. (You may want this in order to locate your Jifty framework libraries.) You can specify this as many times as you want:

  schema --print -I ../Jifty/lib -I ~/MyLibs ProjectRoot

Note that ProjectRoot/lib is automatically added to @INC.

--help

Print a brief help message and exits.

--man

Prints the manual page and exits.

DESCRIPTION

Looks in the directory ProjectRoot/lib/ for all model classes and generates SQL statements to create or update database tables for all of the models. It either prints the SQL to standard output (--print) or actually issues the CREATE TABLE or ALTER TABLE statements on Jifty's database.

(Note that even if you are just displaying the SQL, you need to have correctly configured your Jifty database in ProjectRoot/etc/config.yml, because the SQL generated may depend on the database type.)

BUGS

Due to limitations of DBIx::DBSchema, this probably only works with PostgreSQL, MySQL and SQLite.

It is possible that some of this functionality should be rolled into Jifty::DBI::SchemaGenerator
