Ștefan Suciu 2016-08-17

GUI for Sqitch - Simple SQL change management.

Please see Sqitch for a detailed description of the command line application.

  • Sqitch v0.9996 or newer;
  • wxPerl, Moo and other modules;

Note: Moose is not a requirement starting with v0.020.

Status

Draft - Limited functionality:

  • Add project;
  • Set a default project;
  • Load a project and view it's details;

Test usage

% git clone https://github.com/stefansbv/sqitch-gui.git
% cd sqitch-gui

# Install prereqs
% dzil authordeps --missing | cpanm
% dzil listdeps --missing | cpanm

% PERL5LIB=lib perl bin/sqitch-gui

After the application start, if there is no project configured yet, a dialog is automaticaly opened. Click on the Add button and select a path to an existing Sqitch project. The path should be updated in the list. Click on the close button.

Select a project and Press the Load button.

Still much work to do but some feedback, in this stage, would be awesome...

Implementation notes

Sqitch is a command line program. The user runs sqitch, with the appropriate parameters each time he wants to execute a command. This is very different from a graphical user interface. A program with a GUI once started expects and executes the commands from the user until it is closed.

To integrate Sqitch into Sqitch::GUI there are a few problems that have to be solved:

The sqitch command is executed from a project directory from where it reads some configurations and the plan file. To be useful Sqitch::GUI needs to keep the list of repositories in a configuration file located in standard places in order to be able to find, read and update it.

Command line parameter options, technically, can be used for GUI executable but is better to use only configurations instead.

Each command from the Sqitch interface should have a dedicated button in the GUI, but some of the commands take options (sometimes required ones, like sqitch show).

User Interaction - some commands require confirmation from the user. This can be implemented by using custom dialogs for each command.
