My requirement is I want to diff two database which can be any database

  • 0

My requirement is I want to diff two database which can be any database ,for now considering 3 database Oracle,MySQL,PostGresql and suppose if any of two database has a common schema with common table name,but lets say those two tables are different. The tables can have different column or different column data type etc.How can I generate a diff query which on can be executed on a particular DB to make both of them equal. I was going through schemacrawler(http://schemacrawler.sourceforge.net/how-to.html) but didint got any API which can be used to generated DDL. Though the tool is good to crawl through schema and table -columns etc,but how can I generate DDL in java so that I can make both database equal. I can get database meta data using java api but how can I use it to generate appropriate DDL to make both database equal,if possible please paste sample code snippet.

    We use tool called DBSolo to compare schema and generate diff sql. It is invoked via scripts, not using java code though.

    I used liquibase in my personal work. The example given are in script, it will be trivial to integrate using java.
