sqitch-deploy - Deploy changes to a database
sqitch [options] deploy [<database>] sqitch [options] deploy [<database>] <change> sqitch [options] deploy [<database>] --to-change <change>
Deploy changes to the database. Changes will begin from the current deployment state. They will run to the latest change, unless a change is specified, either via --to or with no option flag, in which case changes will be deployed up-to and including that change.
--to
If the database it up-to-date or already deployed to the specified change, no changes will be made. If the change appears earlier in the plan than the currently-deployed state, an error will be returned, along with a suggestion to instead use sqitch-revert.
The <database> parameter specifies the database to which to connect, and may also be specified as the --target option. It can be target name, a URI, an engine name, or plan file path.
<database>
--target
-t
The target database to which to connect. This option can be either a URI or the name of a target in the configuration.
--to-change
--change
Specify the deployment change. Defaults to the last point in the plan. See sqitchchanges for the various ways in which changes can be specified.
--mode
Specify the reversion mode to use in case of deploy or verify failure. Possible values are:
all
In the event of failure, revert all deployed changes, back to the point at which deployment started. This is the default.
tag
In the event of failure, revert all deployed changes to the last successfully-applied tag. If no tags were applied during this deployment, all changes will be reverted to the point at which deployment began.
change
In the event of deploy failure, no changes will be reverted; for a verify failure, only the failed change will be reverted.
Note that Sqitch assumes that each change is atomic. Therefore, when a deploy script fails, it assumes there is nothing to revert. If a verify script fails, it will of course run the revert script for the failed change.
--verify
Verify each change by running its verify script, if there is one. If a verify test fails, the deploy will be considered to have failed and the appropriate reversion will be carried out, depending on the value of --mode.
--no-verify
Don't verify each change. This is the default.
-s
--set
Set a variable name and value for use by the database engine client, if it supports variables. The format must be name=value, e.g., --set defuser='Homer Simpson'. Overrides any values loaded from the deploy.variables configuration.
name=value
--set defuser='Homer Simpson'
deploy.variables
--log-only
Log the changes as if they were deployed, but without actually running the deploy scripts. Useful for an existing database that is being converted to Sqitch, and you need to log changes as deployed because they have been deployed by other means in the past.
deploy.mode
Deploy mode. The supported values are the same as for the --mode option.
deploy.verify
Boolean indicating whether or not to verify each change.
[deploy.variables]
A section defining database client variables. Useful if your database engine supports variables in scripts, such as PostgreSQL's psql variables, Vertica's vsql variables MySQL's user variables, and SQL*Plus's DEFINE variables.
psql
vsql
DEFINE
Part of the sqitch suite.
