sqitch-deploy - Deploy changes to a database

  sqitch deploy [options] [<database>]
  sqitch deploy [options] [<database>] <change>
  sqitch deploy [options] [<database>] --to-change <change>

Deploy changes to the database. Changes will begin from the current deployment state. They will run to the latest change, unless a change is specified, either via "--to" or with no option flag, in which case changes will be deployed up-to and including that change.

If the database it up-to-date or already deployed to the specified change, no changes will be made. If the change appears earlier in the plan than the currently-deployed state, an error will be returned, along with a suggestion to instead use sqitch-revert.

The "<database>" parameter specifies the database to which to connect, and may also be specified as the "--target" option. It can be target name, a URI, an engine name, or plan file path.

"-t"
"--target"
The target database to which to connect. This option can be either a URI or the name of a target in the configuration.
"--to-change"
"--change"
"--to"
Specify the deployment change. Defaults to the last point in the plan. See sqitchchanges for the various ways in which changes can be specified.
"--mode"
Specify the reversion mode to use in case of deploy or verify failure. Possible values are:
"all"
In the event of failure, revert all deployed changes, back to the point at which deployment started. This is the default.
"tag"
In the event of failure, revert all deployed changes to the last successfully-applied tag. If no tags were applied during this deployment, all changes will be reverted to the point at which deployment began.
"change"
In the event of deploy failure, no changes will be reverted; for a verify failure, only the failed change will be reverted.

Note that Sqitch assumes that each change is atomic. Therefore, when a deploy script fails, it assumes there is nothing to revert. If a verify script fails, it will of course run the revert script for the failed change.

"--verify"
Verify each change by running its verify script, if there is one. If a verify test fails, the deploy will be considered to have failed and the appropriate reversion will be carried out, depending on the value of "--mode".
"--no-verify"
Don't verify each change. This is the default.
"-s"
"--set"
Set a variable name and value for use by the database engine client, if it supports variables. The format must be "name=value", e.g., "--set defuser='Homer Simpson'". Overrides any values loaded from "configuration Variables".
"--log-only"
Log the changes as if they were deployed, but without actually running the deploy scripts. Useful for an existing database that is being converted to Sqitch, and you need to log changes as deployed because they have been deployed by other means in the past.
"--lock-timeout"
  sqitch deploy --lock-timeout 600

Set the number of seconds for Sqitch to wait to get an exclusive advisory lock on the target database, for engines that support such a lock. This lock prevents other instances of Sqitch from working on the target at the same time, but prevents no other database activity. Defaults to 60.

"--registry"
  sqitch deploy --registry registry

The name of the Sqitch registry schema or database in which sqitch stores its own data.

"--db-client"
"--client"
  sqitch deploy --client /usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql

Path to the command-line client for the database engine. Defaults to a client in the current path named appropriately for the database engine.

"-d"
"--db-name"
  sqitch deploy --db-name widgets
  sqitch deploy -d bricolage

Name of the database. In general, targets and URIs are preferred, but this option can be used to override the database name in a target.

"-u"
"--db-user"
"--db-username"
  sqitch deploy --db-username root
  sqitch deploy --db-user postgres
  sqitch deploy -u Mom

User name to use when connecting to the database. Does not apply to all engines. In general, targets and URIs are preferred, but this option can be used to override the user name in a target.

"-h"
"--db-host"
  sqitch deploy --db-host db.example.com
  sqitch deploy -h appdb.example.net

Host name to use when connecting to the database. Does not apply to all engines. In general, targets and URIs are preferred, but this option can be used to override the host name in a target.

"-p"
"--db-port"
  sqitch deploy --db-port 7654
  sqitch deploy -p 5431

Port number to connect to. Does not apply to all engines. In general, targets and URIs are preferred, but this option can be used to override the port in a target.

"--plan-file"
"-f"
  sqitch deploy --plan-file my.plan

Path to the deployment plan file. Overrides target, engine, and core configuration values. Defaults to $top_dir/sqitch.plan.

"deploy.mode"
Deploy mode. The supported values are the same as for the "--mode" option.
"deploy.verify"
Boolean indicating whether or not to verify each change.
"[deploy.variables]"
A section defining database client variables. Useful if your database engine supports variables in scripts, such as PostgreSQL's "psql" variables <https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/app-psql.html#APP-PSQL-INTERPOLATION>, Vertica's "vsql" variables <https://my.vertica.com/docs/7.1.x/HTML/index.htm#Authoring/ConnectingToHPVertica/vsql/Variables.htm> MySQL's user variables <https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/user-variables.html>, SQL*Plus's "DEFINE" variables <https://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14357/ch12017.htm>, and Snowflake's SnowSQL variables <https://docs.snowflake.com/en/user-guide/snowsql-use.html#using-variables>.

May be overridden by "--set" or target and engine configuration. Variables are merged in the following priority order:

"--set"
"target.$target.variables"
"engine.$engine.variables"
"deploy.variables"
"core.variables"

Part of the sqitch suite.
