data-sync

Data Sync is an automated tool for comparing database schemas and data. It can compare two databases, whether they are local or remote, and automatically produce a migration file of the differences.

If you find this extension useful for your projects, please consider supporting me by Github, Patreon, KO-FI or Paypal. It's a great way to help me maintain and improve this tool in the future. Your support is truly appreciated!

Installation

Get it from Visual Studio Marketplace or Open VSX Registry.

Features

• Connects to a source and target database to perform the comparison.
• Can compare changes to both the schema and data, and generate valid SQL to update the target database to match the source.
• Allows you to ignore certain tables or fields during the comparison.
• Currently only works with PostgreSQL, but we plan to expand to other databases based on user demand in the future.

Using the extension

Step 1: Configuration

On the first time, you need create the configuration. You can quickly create your configuration from Data Sync Explorer or Command Palette.

// A Boolean variable indicating whether to include verbose log in migrate data.
"verbose": boolean,

// List of migrate pattern, multiple pattern can be defined.
"patterns": {
    // Your defined pattern
    "patternName": {
        // Your source database connection section
        "source": {
            "user": string,
            "password": string,
            "host": string,
            "database": string,
            "port": number,

            // database connection string
            "connectionString": string,

            // passed directly to node.TLSSocket, supports all tls.connect options
            "ssl": object,

            // custom type parsers
            "types": object,

            // number of milliseconds before a statement in query will time out, default is no timeout
            "statement_timeout": number,

            // number of milliseconds before a query call will timeout, default is no timeout
            "query_timeout": number,

            // the name of the application that created this Client instance
            "application_name": string,

            // number of milliseconds to wait for connection, default is no timeout
            "connectionTimeoutMillis": number,

            // number of milliseconds a client must sit idle in the pool
            "idleTimeoutMillis": number,

            // maximum number of clients the pool should contain by default this is set to 10.
            "max": object,

            // default behavior is the pool will keep clients open & connected
            "allowExitOnIdle": boolean,

            // Number of milliseconds before terminating any session with an open idle transaction, default is no timeout
            "idle_in_transaction_session_timeout": number
        },

        // Your target database connection section
        "target": {
            "user": string,
            "password": string,
            "host": string,
            "database": string,
            "port": number
            // And other property you can defined (same as source)
        },

        // You diff options
        "diff": {
            // Auto format diff data (UNDER DEVELOPMENT)
            "format": true,

            // The table you want to diff changes.
            "tables": [
                {
                    // The database table schema
                    "schema": string,

                    // The database table name
                    "name": string,

                    // Exclude one or more columns
                    "excludes": Array<string>,

                    // Custom where query (.e.g customer_id = 'JHQMFFE8sJ')
                    "where": string,

                    // Custom order by column (.e.g iam_role_code, iam_policy_code)
                    "orderBy": string,

                    // Define columns you want get to compare, default all column
                    "columns": Array<string>,

                    // Define primary keys of table, to check table row is unique
                    "primaryKeys": Array<string>
                }
            ]
        },

        // Your migrate options
        "migrate": {
            // No generate the insert record.
            "noInsert": false,

            // No generate the update record.
            "noUpdate": false,

            // No generate the delete record.
            "noDelete": false,

            // Action on no row affected when migrate data
            "noRowAffected": "ignore" | "log" | "warn" | "throw",

            // Action on multiple row affected when migrate data
            "multipleRowAffected": "ignore" | "log" | "warn" | "throw"
        }
    }
}
