Getting an Overview of Changes to a PostgreSQL Database using Flyway
How to use Flyway and PowerShell to automatically generate a database build script every time Flyway successfully created a new version. You can then investigate schema changes between versions simply by using a Diff tool to compare build scripts. Read moreAutomating Flyway Undos
How to auto-generate first-cut undo scripts for every Flyway migration. For every new version of a database created by a Flyway versioned migration, we compare it to a 'source' directory containing object-level build scripts for the previous version. The SQL Compare engine does the rest, producing the associated undo script that will revert the database to the previous version, if required. Read moreUsing Flyway Teams with SQL Change Automation PowerShell Cmdlets
Use Flyway to run your database migrations, each time automatically creating a SQL Change Automation release object to provide object-level scripts and a build script for the new version, along with change reports and code analysis reports. Read moreGetting In A State Using Flyway Baseline Migrations
Flyway Teams baseline migration scripts are a simple and fast way to deploy new copies of a database, at a specific version, for testing work, or to create a new branch during development. Read moreScripting with Flyway Teams and PowerShell
During the development cycle, the mechanics of reliable delivery must not be allowed to dominate the design work. With script callbacks in Flyway Teams, many of the development tasks required during a database migration can happen automatically, producing reports, build scripts, code reviews, or documentation. Read moreRunning SQL Code Analysis during Flyway Migrations
A set of PowerShell automation script tasks for running database build and migrations tasks. This article describes the SQL code analysis task, which will check the syntax of the SQL code in your databases and your migration scripts for 'code smells'. Read moreCreating Database Build Artifacts when Running Flyway Migrations
This article provides PowerShell automation scripts for running Flyway database migrations. These scripts use SQL Compare to automatically generate all the required database build artifacts in the version control system, for each Flyway deployment. Read moreChecking for Missing Module References in a SQL Server Database Using Flyway
There are certain checks that need to be done after a database migration is complete. One good example of this is the check that a migration script, such as one that merges changes from a branch into main, doesn't cause 'invalid objects' (a.k.a. 'missing references') in your databases. I'll show you how to run this check, usingsp_RefreshSQLModule, and incorporate it into a Flyway "after" migration script. Read more
Flyway Baselines and Consolidations
Phil Factor demonstrates why we occasionally need to 'baseline' a database, when automating database deployments with Flyway, and a simple way of reducing the number of migration files that are required for a build. Read moreRedgate Hub
