I have web application, which perfectly working at production server. But this application progressing every day and i frequently need to invite side developers and freelancers for upgrading it. So, every time i find someone, i have to send development version of my apllication and copy of production MySQL database, where i dropped all confidential data manually.

So, the question is: is it possible to make script for auto-making this develop version of database?

UPDATE:
I’ll try to draw some data. For example, i have Users table:

User table:
name  | email         | role         | phone   |
-----------------------------------------------
user2 | mail@mail.com | guest        | 1234567 |
user2 | mail@mail.com | admin        | 1234567 |
user2 | mail@mail.com | manager      | 1234567 |
user2 | mail@mail.com | topmanager   | 1234567 |

But, of course, this table has only real users data. And so on a little bit of simmilar tables.
So, i want to make script, that dumps whole production database, drops some important and confidential tables, like Users, Orders, Payments and so on. After this script puts dummy data to those tables, like Users data, which i typed before.

    You can use mysql in command line.

    ssh -C user@newhost "mysql -uUSER -pPASS -e 'create database NEW_DB_NAME;'" 
&& mysqldump --force --log-error=mysql_error.log -uUSER -pPASS OLD_DB_NAME 
| ssh -C user@remotehost "mysql -uUSER -pPASS NEW_DB_NAME"
