osmosis

Osmosis

A versatile database utility library that streamlines common tasks like exporting and importing data.

Installation

Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:

$ bundle add osmosis

If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:

$ gem install osmosis

Usage

Osmosis provides you with different rake tasks that simplify the management of your database.

Database import

The import command will ask you for a .dump file and restores it to the PostgreSQL database. Any pre-existing data is dropped.

bundle exec rails db:import

Database export

The export command will ask you for a .dump file and exports the PostgreSQL database into the file. If the file already exists, it is overwritten.

bundle exec rails db:export

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
