Gadget
Past/Present Worked w/ a database of some sort How do you get changes? Does it get any easier?
Why do we need migrations? Things invariably will change Very few systems require no
changes over the years
Different Environments1. Local
(Developers)
2 . Test (Testers)
3 . Staging (Users/Proxies)
4 . Production (Users)
Let’s talk about Pain How do you apply a database
change one time? How do you keep all environments
in sync? Databases change – updates with
new/changed tables, views, stored procedures, etc
Databases store data Deleting data is bad. Don’t be a bad
monkey!
What is RoundhousE? And why is kicking my database a
good thing? It’s easy to use Make your auditors smile Version your database It’s environment aware And that’s not even the cool stuff
yet.
What does it work with? SQL Server 2000/2005/2008/Express Oracle Access MySQL (just added, still dark)
Soon: PostgreSQL SQLite
ChuckNorris Suite of tools to help make
developers more productive by scaffolding frameworks, etc
RoundhousE makes db migrations easy
http://groups.google.com/group/chucknorrisframework
Easy to use One required parameter (/d) for
database Folder format Comes with samples Documentation is solid
Make Your Auditors Smile Audit logging – who did exactly what
when? Auditing changes by capturing all
scripts and logs each time
Version Your Database 1.0.0.0 – version? “What version is your database on?”
Environment Awareness Scripts meant for an environment
will only run in that environment Default is “LOCAL”
Conventions / Customizable The cool stuff Don’t like RoundhousE as the
schema? Change it Don’t like the “up” folder? Change it Don’t like xxxxx? Change it
Integrate into development Also the cool stuff
How do I get RoundhousE? gem install roundhouse cinst roundhouse nuget install roundhouse (for your local
project)
