A simple request - add SQL file to Resources section

[codiddle]

There's a SQL file Thrydwolf wrote on the Wiki for automating the process of building the DB for the server. Is there anyway that can be included in the Resources section of the phpbb site, or maybe dropped into the Custom Tools and Application section for easier access? I'll quote it so it's easy,
@ECHO OFF
REM =============================================================================
REM =============================================================================

REM ====== THis script will drop the DB specificed, then create the DB =========
REM ====== specified, and then load all .sql tables from its run dir to =========

it's on the wiki already in "Building the Server" but i don't see why not

that barch file I could never get to work how ever the one below works perfect

NOTE: if you change the password make sure there is a -p or the script will fail

Code: Select all

@ECHO OFF
REM ====== by EDGECOM 1/26/2014
REM copy over the mysql.exe from the server bin folder into the darkstar sql folder
REM FROM C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.6\bin\
REM TO C:\darkstar\sql\

REM if you changed the default mysql instlation folder please change this to the propper dir
cd "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.6\bin\"

ECHO Creating Database dspdb
mysqladmin.exe -h localhost -u root -proot DROP dspdb

ECHO Creating Database dspdb
mysqladmin.exe -h localhost -u root -proot CREATE dspdb

REM change this to your server folder if its not default
cd "C:\darkstar\sql\"

ECHO Loading dspdb with tables
REM FOR %%X IN (*.sql) DO mysql dspdb -h localhost -u root -ppassword1! < %%X
FOR %%X IN (*.sql) DO ECHO Importing %%X & mysql dspdb -h localhost -u root -ppassword1! < %%X

del "mysql.exe"

ECHO Finished!

You need to add the path to MySQL's bin files to your systems environment variables for it to work from any location.

True I forgot about that lol

hum maybe I should make a sql import tool that will auto import if it finds newer time stamp on file..

Auto-imports on things like the char data tables and such will still need to be mended by hand to prevent killing the current character data. There are multiple files that will have to have that restriction. It's generally easier to just follow the changes and do the updates manually.
