# [ddlctl](https://github.com/hakadoriya/ddlctl)
`ddlctl` is a tool to control RDBMS DDLs: output all RDBMS DDLs, generate DDLs from tagged Golang source code, view differences between RDBMS and your DDL, and automate migrations.
> [!WARNING]
> This project is experimental. It is operational in the author's environment, but it is not known if it can be operated in other environments without trouble.

## Demo

## Overview
ddlctl can do the following:
- Output all RDBMS DDLs
- Generate DDL from tagged Golang source code
- Output differences between the RDBMS and your DDL
- Automated Migration

## Example: `ddlctl generate`
### 1. Prepare your annotated model source code
For example, prepare the following Go code:
```go
package sample
// User is a user model struct.
//
//pgddl:table public.users
//pgddl:constraint UNIQUE ("username")
//pgddl:index "index_users_username" ON public.users ("username")
type User struct {
UserID string `db:"user_id" pgddl:"TEXT NOT NULL" pk:"true"`
Username string `db:"username" pgddl:"TEXT NOT NULL"`
Age int `db:"age" pgddl:"INT NOT NULL"`
}
// Group is a group model struct.
//
//pgddl:table CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS public.groups
//pgddl:index CREATE UNIQUE INDEX "index_groups_group_name" ON public.groups ("group_name")
type Group struct {
GroupID string `db:"group_id" pgddl:"TEXT NOT NULL" pk:"true"`
GroupName string `db:"group_name" pgddl:"TEXT NOT NULL"`
Description string `db:"description" pgddl:"TEXT NOT NULL"`
}
```
### 2. Generate DDL
Please execute the ddlctl command as follows:
```console
$ ddlctl generate --dialect postgres --go-column-tag db --go-ddl-tag pgddl --go-pk-tag pk sample.go sample.sql
INFO: 2023/11/16 16:10:39 ddlctl.go:44: source: sample.go
INFO: 2023/11/16 16:10:39 ddlctl.go:73: destination: sample.sql
```
### 3. Check generated DDL file
Please check the contents of the outputted DDL:
```sh
cat sample.sql
```
content:
```sql
-- Code generated by ddlctl. DO NOT EDIT.
--
-- source: docs/sample.go:5
-- User is a user model struct.
--
-- pgddl:table public.users
-- pgddl:constraint UNIQUE ("username")
CREATE TABLE public.users (
"user_id" TEXT NOT NULL,
"username" TEXT NOT NULL,
"age" INT NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY ("user_id"),
UNIQUE ("username")
);
-- source: docs/sample.go:7
-- pgddl:index "index_users_username" ON public.users ("username")
CREATE INDEX "index_users_username" ON public.users ("username");
-- source: docs/sample.go:16
-- Group is a group model struct.
--
-- pgddl:table CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS public.groups
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS public.groups (
"group_id" TEXT NOT NULL,
"group_name" TEXT NOT NULL,
"description" TEXT NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY ("group_id")
);
-- source: docs/sample.go:17
-- pgddl:index CREATE UNIQUE INDEX "index_groups_group_name" ON public.groups ("group_name")
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX "index_groups_group_name" ON public.groups ("group_name");
```
## Example: `ddlctl diff` and `ddlctl apply`
### 1. Prepare your DDL
```sh
cat sample.sql
```
content:
```sql
-- Code generated by ddlctl. DO NOT EDIT.
--
-- source: docs/sample.go:5
-- User is a user model struct.
--
-- pgddl:table public.users
-- pgddl:constraint UNIQUE ("username")
CREATE TABLE public.users (
"user_id" TEXT NOT NULL,
"username" TEXT NOT NULL,
"age" INT NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY ("user_id"),
UNIQUE ("username")
);
-- source: docs/sample.go:7
-- pgddl:index "index_users_username" ON public.users ("username")
CREATE INDEX "index_users_username" ON public.users ("username");
-- source: docs/sample.go:16
-- Group is a group model struct.
--
-- pgddl:table CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS public.groups
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS public.groups (
"group_id" TEXT NOT NULL,
"group_name" TEXT NOT NULL,
"description" TEXT NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY ("group_id")
);
-- source: docs/sample.go:17
-- pgddl:index CREATE UNIQUE INDEX "index_groups_group_name" ON public.groups ("group_name")
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX "index_groups_group_name" ON public.groups ("group_name");
```
### 2. Check diff from local DDL file to DSN
Please check the differences between the local DDL file and the destination database:
```console
$ ddlctl diff --dialect postgres "postgres://postgres:password@localhost/testdb?sslmode=disable" sample.sql
CREATE TABLE public.users (
"user_id" TEXT NOT NULL,
"username" TEXT NOT NULL,
"age" INT NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT users_pkey PRIMARY KEY ("user_id"),
CONSTRAINT users_unique_username UNIQUE ("username")
);
CREATE INDEX "index_users_username" ON public.users ("username");
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS public.groups (
"group_id" TEXT NOT NULL,
"group_name" TEXT NOT NULL,
"description" TEXT NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT groups_pkey PRIMARY KEY ("group_id")
);
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX "index_groups_group_name" ON public.groups ("group_name");
```
### 3. Apply DDL
```console
$ ddlctl apply --dialect postgres "postgres://postgres:password@localhost/testdb?sslmode=disable" sample.sql --auto-approve
ddlctl will exec the following DDL queries:
-- 8< --
CREATE TABLE public.users (
"user_id" TEXT NOT NULL,
"username" TEXT NOT NULL,
"age" INT NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT users_pkey PRIMARY KEY ("user_id"),
CONSTRAINT users_unique_username UNIQUE ("username")
);
CREATE INDEX "index_users_username" ON public.users ("username");
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS public.groups (
"group_id" TEXT NOT NULL,
"group_name" TEXT NOT NULL,
"description" TEXT NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT groups_pkey PRIMARY KEY ("group_id")
);
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX "index_groups_group_name" ON public.groups ("group_name");
-- >8 --
Do you want to apply these DDL queries?
ddlctl will exec the DDL queries described above.
Only 'yes' will be accepted to approve.
Enter a value: yes (via --auto-approve option)
executing...
done
```
### 4. (Optional) Edit DDL and apply
```diff
-- pgddl:table public.users
-- pgddl:constraint UNIQUE ("username")
CREATE TABLE public.users (
"user_id" TEXT NOT NULL,
"username" TEXT NOT NULL,
"age" INT NOT NULL,
+ "description" TEXT NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY ("user_id"),
UNIQUE ("username")
);
```
apply:
```console
$ ddlctl apply --dialect postgres "postgres://postgres:password@localhost/testdb?sslmode=disable" sample.sql --auto-approve
ddlctl will exec the following DDL queries:
-- 8< --
-- -
-- +"description" TEXT NOT NULL
ALTER TABLE public.users ADD COLUMN "description" TEXT NOT NULL;
-- >8 --
Do you want to apply these DDL queries?
ddlctl will exec the DDL queries described above.
Only 'yes' will be accepted to approve.
Enter a value: yes (via --auto-approve option)
executing...
done
```
