Lightweight script to compare two database
License:
Languages: PHP, CSS, JavaScript, Dockerfile
Compalex is a lightweight script to compare two database schemas. It supports MySQL, MS SQL Server and PostgreSQL.
Try demo or visit http://compalex.net/
The easiest way to use Compalex is to use Docker.
You can build your own container using Dockerfile or use Docker Hub image:
docker run -it -e DATABASE_DRIVER='mysql' \
-e DATABASE_ENCODING='utf8' \
-e SAMPLE_DATA_LENGTH='100' \
-e DATABASE_HOST='host.docker.internal' \
-e DATABASE_PORT='3306' \
-e DATABASE_NAME='compalex_dev' \
-e DATABASE_USER='root' \
-e DATABASE_PASSWORD='password' \
-e DATABASE_DESCRIPTION='Developer database' \
-e DATABASE_HOST_SECONDARY='host.docker.internal' \
-e DATABASE_PORT_SECONDARY='3306' \
-e DATABASE_NAME_SECONDARY='compalex_prod' \
-e DATABASE_USER_SECONDARY='root' \
-e DATABASE_PASSWORD_SECONDARY='password' \
-e DATABASE_DESCRIPTION_SECONDARY='Production database' \
-p 8000:8000 dlevsha/compalex
You need to change variables for your own
DATABASE_DRIVER
- database driver, possible value
mysql
- for MySQL databasepgsql
- for PostgreSQL databasedblib
- for Microsoft SQL Server databaseoci
- for Oracle databaseDATABASE_HOST
and DATABASE_HOST_SECONDARY
- database host name or IP for first and second server
If your compared DB run locally:
for MacOS and Windows
user: use host.docker.internal
instead of localhost
in DATABASE_HOST
and DATABASE_HOST_SECONDARY
param.
Because we run script inside container we need to use Host machine IP for connection.
for Linux user: use --network host
option and localhost
in DATABASE_HOST
and DATABASE_HOST_SECONDARY
param.
If you connect to DB outside your machine (external IP) use: -e DATABASE_HOST='[Your external IP]'
.
DATABASE_PORT
and DATABASE_PORT_SECONDARY
- database port for first and second server
Default ports for DB:
3306
- Mysql5432
- PostgreSQL1433
- MSSQL1521
- OracleDATABASE_NAME
and DATABASE_NAME_SECONDARY
- first and second database name
DATABASE_USER
/ DATABASE_PASSWORD
and DATABASE_USER_SECONDARY
/ DATABASE_PASSWORD_SECONDARY
- login and password to access your databases
DATABASE_DESCRIPTION
and DATABASE_DESCRIPTION_SECONDARY
- server description (not necessary). For information only. These names will display as a database name.
You can also use docker-compose.yml
.
version: "3.7"
services:
compalex:
image: dlevsha/compalex
container_name: compalex
environment:
- DATABASE_DRIVER=mysql
- DATABASE_ENCODING=utf8
- SAMPLE_DATA_LENGTH=100
- DATABASE_HOST=host.docker.internal
- DATABASE_PORT=3306
- DATABASE_NAME=compalex_dev
- DATABASE_USER=root
- DATABASE_PASSWORD=password
- DATABASE_DESCRIPTION=Developer database
- DATABASE_HOST_SECONDARY=host.docker.internal
- DATABASE_PORT_SECONDARY=3306
- DATABASE_NAME_SECONDARY=compalex_prod
- DATABASE_USER_SECONDARY=root
- DATABASE_PASSWORD_SECONDARY=password
- DATABASE_DESCRIPTION_SECONDARY=Production database
ports:
- "8000:8000"
If you prefer use Compalex as PHP script please read instruction bellow.
Compalex is only supported by PHP 5.4 and up with PDO extension.
$ git clone https://github.com/dlevsha/compalex.git
$ cd compalex
Open .environment
. You'll see configuration params
[ Main settings ]
; Possible DATABASE_DRIVER: 'mysql', 'pgsql', 'dblib', 'oci'.
; Please use 'dblib' for Microsoft SQL Server
DATABASE_DRIVER = mysql
DATABASE_ENCODING = utf8
SAMPLE_DATA_LENGTH = 100
[ Primary connection params ]
DATABASE_HOST = localhost
DATABASE_PORT = 3306
DATABASE_NAME = compalex_dev
DATABASE_USER = root
DATABASE_PASSWORD =
DATABASE_DESCRIPTION = Developer database
[ Secondary connection params ]
DATABASE_HOST_SECONDARY = localhost
DATABASE_PORT_SECONDARY = 3306
DATABASE_NAME_SECONDARY = compalex_prod
DATABASE_USER_SECONDARY = root
DATABASE_PASSWORD_SECONDARY =
DATABASE_DESCRIPTION_SECONDARY = Production database
where
DATABASE_DRIVER
- database driver, possible value
mysql
- for MySQL databasepgsql
- for PostgreSQL databasedblib
- for Microsoft SQL Server databaseoci
- for Oracle database[ Primary connection params ]
and [ Secondary connection params ]
sections describes settings for first and second databases.
Where
DATABASE_HOST
and DATABASE_HOST_SECONDARY
- database host name or IP for first and second server
DATABASE_PORT
and DATABASE_PORT_SECONDARY
- database port for first and second server
Default ports:
3306
- Mysql5432
- PostgreSQL1433
- MSSQL1521
- OracleDATABASE_NAME
and DATABASE_NAME_SECONDARY
- first and second database name
DATABASE_USER
/ DATABASE_PASSWORD
and DATABASE_USER_SECONDARY
/ DATABASE_PASSWORD_SECONDARY
- login and password to access your databases
DATABASE_DESCRIPTION
and DATABASE_DESCRIPTION_SECONDARY
- server description (not necessary). For information only. These names will display as a database name.
Inside compalex
directory run
$ php -S localhost:8000
Now open your browser and type http://localhost:8000/
You'll see database schema of two compared databases.
You can run this script in terminal (for example, if you don't have direct connection to database).
I recommend eLinks (free text-based console web browser) because it supports HTML-formatting and colors.
Install the script and run web-server as described above on your server.
Then run:
$ elinks http://localhost:8000
You'll see database schema in your terminal
Sometimes you have only SSH access to remote database server and you can't open port for external connections. In this case you can use port forwarding via SSH
ssh -L 1522:localhost:1521 [user name]@[remote host 1]
ssh -L 1523:localhost:1521 [user name]@[remote host 2]
This command will forward 1521
port from remote servers to local 1522
and 1523
respectively.
