Laravel DB Sync

DB Dync

Introduction

Sync remote database to a local database

A word of warning you should only sync a remote database into a local database if you have permission to do so within your organisation's policies. I'm syncing during early phases of development where the data is largely test data and not actual customer data.

Connection can be made over SSH or using a remote MySQL connection.

Install

Install the package.

composer require dcblogdev/laravel-db-sync

Config

You can publish the config file with:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Dcblogdev\DbSync\DbSyncServiceProvider" --tag="config"

.env

Set the remote database credentials in your .env file

When using SSH Add:

REMOTE_USE_SSH=true
REMOTE_SSH_PORT=22
REMOTE_SSH_USERNAME=
REMOTE_DATABASE_HOST=

REMOTE_DATABASE_USERNAME=
REMOTE_DATABASE_PORT=3306
REMOTE_DATABASE_NAME=
REMOTE_DATABASE_PASSWORD=
REMOTE_DATABASE_IGNORE_TABLES=''

REMOTE_REMOVE_FILE_AFTER_IMPORT=true
REMOTE_IMPORT_FILE=true

For only MySQL remote connections:

REMOTE_DATABASE_HOST=
REMOTE_DATABASE_USERNAME=
REMOTE_DATABASE_PORT=3306
REMOTE_DATABASE_NAME=
REMOTE_DATABASE_PASSWORD=
REMOTE_DATABASE_IGNORE_TABLES=''

REMOTE_REMOVE_FILE_AFTER_IMPORT=true
REMOTE_IMPORT_FILE=true

Set a comma seperate list of tables NOT to export in REMOTE_DATABASE_IGNORE_TABLES

To generate a SQL with a custom file name REMOTE_DEFAULT_FILE_NAME

To specify a different local database connection:

LOCAL_TARGET_CONNECTION=different_mysql_connection

Set the mysql command path:

LOCAL_MYSQL_PATH=/usr/bin/mysql

For only mysqldump:

REMOTE_MYSQLDUMP_SKIP_TZ_UTC=true

Usage

To export a remote database to OVERRIDE your local database by running:

php artisan db:production-sync

Provide a filename for export on the fly by passing the option --filename, remember to provide .sql

php artisan db:production-sync --filename=other.sql

Run the command without attempting to export:

php artisan db:production-sync --test

Aliases

There are shortcuts that can be used:

-T = will use --test F = will use --filename

Alternative name

When connecting to a none production database, say a staging database you can choose to use this alternative name:

db:remote-sync may be used instead of db:production-sync
