Here is a sample poor man's solution for a trigger implementing tracking of changes on db objects ( via DDL stateements ) on a sql server 2005 / 2008 database. I contains also a simple sample of how-to enforce the usage of required someValue xml tag in the source code for each sql command ran on the database + the tracking of the current db version and type ( dev , test , qa , fb , prod) One could extend it with additional required attributes such as , etc. The code is rather long - it creates the empty database + the needed tracking table structure + required db functions and the populating trigger all running under a [ga] schema.

You should never just log in and start entering "ALTER TABLE" commands to change a production database. The project I'm on has database on every customer site, and so every change to the database is made in two places, a dump file that is used to create a new database on a new customer site, and an update file that is run on every update which checks your current database version number against the highest number in the file, and updates your database in place. So for instance, the last couple of updates:

if [ $VERSION \< '8.0.108' ] ; then
  psql -U cosuser $dbName << EOF8.0.108
    BEGIN TRANSACTION;
    --
    -- Remove foreign key that shouldn't have been there.
    -- PCR:35665
    --
    ALTER TABLE     migratorjobitems
    DROP CONSTRAINT migratorjobitems_destcmaid_fkey;
    -- 
    -- Increment the version
    UPDATE          sys_info
    SET             value = '8.0.108'
    WHERE           key = 'DB VERSION';
    END TRANSACTION;
EOF8.0.108
fi

if [ $VERSION \< '8.0.109' ] ; then
  psql -U cosuser $dbName << EOF8.0.109
    BEGIN TRANSACTION;
    --
    -- I missed a couple of cases when I changed the legacy playlist
    -- from reporting showplaylistidnum to playlistidnum

    ON DELETE       CASCADE;
    --

    DROP CONSTRAINT ticket_system_ids_showplaylistidnum_fkey;

我相信有更好的方法来做到这一点，但到目前为止，它对我来说是有效的。

我已经使用RedGate SQL Compare Pro与脚本文件夹进行模式同步，然后我将所有更新提交给版本控制。效果很好。

Sadly, I've seen more than one team developing PL/SQL programs (stored procedures in Oracle) - sometimes ten thousands LOC - just by editing the code in TOAD (a database tool), without even saving the source to files (except for deployment). Even if the database is backuped regulary (wouldn't take that for granted, though), the only way to retrieve an old version of a stored procedure is to restore the whole database, which is many GB large. And of course sometimes concurrent changes in one file lead to loss of work, when more than one developer works on the same project.

我已经开始研究sqlHawk，它的目标是围绕这个问题提供(开源)工具。

它目前处于相当早期的阶段，但已经支持存储和执行存储过程以及运行脚本更新。

如果有任何人有时间看这个工具，我将非常感激。

为公然的自我推销道歉，但我希望这对某人有用!

数据库本身?没有

创建它们的脚本，包括静态数据插入、存储过程等;当然可以。它们是文本文件，它们包含在项目中，像其他东西一样签入和签出。

当然，在理想情况下，您的数据库管理工具可以做到这一点;但你必须遵守纪律。
