Is there any external tool in php/java to generateChangelog files for all database object?

Question

I am trying to add the liquibase tool into my development environment to manage database migrations. Given the feature set it looks very flexible and promising. My first obvious question is how I can export all the existing schema into individual files (tables, triggers, functions and stored procedures ). ?

Is there any tool/extension for liquibase to perform such task.

I have tried command line option liquibase generateChangelogs , but unfortunately it generates single changelog file ( without stored objects -fun/pro/trig)

anything using bash/java/any linux standard xml processing command line tool is appreciable

Here is what I want to do : -Have xml templates for mysql function/stored procedure /trigger/table etc

• query existing database for all tables/function triggers etc.. go through each and parse respective template and generate changelog file for each object

• -- store each file in respective director under current location e.g

  /database

   ---/functions
  
   ---/procedures
  
   ---/triggers
  
   ---/views
  
   ---/tables
  

thanks

This is not possible, but you can generate the initial changelog with the command and then write a script that separates the objects. Afterwards just create a master changelog that includes the others.

Check my post on Liquibase ( http://scalabilitycookbook.com/2012/10/05/control-your-database-schema/ ) for details.
