SchemaCrawler - Groovy Scripting Example

Description

SchemaCrawler allows scripting with database metadata, using Groovy. This example shows how to script with Groovy.

How to Setup

  1. Make sure that java is on your PATH
  2. Start a command shell in the _downloader directory
  3. Run download.cmd groovy (or download.sh groovy on Unix) to install Groovy scripting support

How to Run

  1. Make sure that java is on your PATH
  2. Start the test database server by following instructions in the _testdb/README.html file
  3. Start a command shell in the groovy example directory
  4. Run groovy.cmd tables.groovy (or groovy.sh tables.groovy on Unix)

How to Experiment

  1. Run groovy.cmd droptables.groovy (or groovy.sh droptables.groovy on Unix). (In order to restore the database, restart the database server.)
  2. Try modifying the Groovy in the *.groovy files to do different things. You also have access to a live database connection.
