Database Dump Utility
for Zend Framework 2

Utility used to dump a database into a SQL file, and to load that file into a database.

Features

• Dump an entire database into a SQL file
• Load a SQL file into a database

Setup

Following steps are necessary to get this module working, considering a zf2-skeleton or very similar application:

1. Add "minimum-stability": "dev" to your composer.json, because this module is under development

2. Run php composer.phar require webino/webino-db-dump:dev-develop

3. Add WebinoDbDump to the enabled modules list

QuickStart

For example, add this settings to your module config:

'di' => [
    'instance' => [
        'alias' => [
            'DefaultDbDump' => \WebinoDbDump\Db\Dump\Dump::class,
        ],
    ],
    'DefaultDbDump' => [
        'parameters' => [
            'adapter' => \Zend\Db\Adapter\Adapter::class,
        ],
    ],
],

NOTE: Change the DefaultAdapterDump and \Zend\Db\Adapter\Adapter::class as you wish.

Then, add this code to your controller action:

// We encourage to use Dependency Injection instead of Service Locator
$dbDump = $this->getServiceLocator()->get('DefaultDbDump');

// saves the sql code of the entire database to a file
$dbDump->save('example/dump.sql');

// drops & creates tables/views, triggers and inserts the data
$dbDump->load('example/dump.sql');

// or from string
$dbDump->read(new \WebinoDbDump\Db\Sql\SqlString('CREATE TABLE...'));

NOTE: If you don’t know how to inject the WebinoDbDump into action controller, check out test/resources.

NOTE: Use stream wrappers, e.g. compress.zlib://example.dump.sql.gz, if you want compression.
