schema-loader
=============

[](#schema-loader)

Load database schema from an XML file.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

You can load schema to database by:

### Database url

[](#database-url)

A full URL containing username, password, hostname and dbname:

```
./bin/dbtk-schema-loader schema:load example/schema.xml mysql://username:password@localhost/dbname

```

### Just a dbname

[](#just-a-dbname)

In this case [linkorb/database-manager](https://github.com/linkorb/database-manager) is used for loading database connection details (server, username, password, etc) from .conf files (read project readme for more details).

In a nutshell - you must have a `dbname.conf` file at `/share/config/database/` as described at [database-manager's documentation](https://github.com/linkorb/database-manager#database-configuration-files).

```
./bin/dbtk-schema-loader schema:load example/schema.xml dbname
```

### Examples

[](#examples)

See `example/schema.xml` or `/tests/fixtures/schema.xml`.

### Notices

[](#notices)

- Don't forget to use `notnull="false"` for optional fields.
- Don't use `primaryKey="id"` in table definition - in version `~2.0` indexes have new format.
