Create a checks package file

If you don't yet have any checks settings files, follow each of these steps starting at Step 1.

If you already have a collection of related checks settings files, skip directly to Step 4 to put them into a package.

Before you begin

Create a checks settings file before you create a checks package file.

Procedure

Run the checks create command to create a new YAML checks package file

For--package-file, specify any file name ending with .yaml. If you specify a file that does not exist, Liquibase will create it.
For --package-name, specify any descriptive name for a package object to be listed in the file.
For --package-contents, specify all the settings files you just created. If you specify a directory, all files within the directory will be added to the --package-name object, but not recursively.

Unix example

liquibase checks create \
  --package-file=liquibase.security-checks.yaml \
  --package-name=platform-checks \
  --package-contents=oracle-checks.yaml,postgres-checks.yaml,sqlserver-checks.yaml

Windows example

liquibase checks create ^
  --package-file=liquibase.security-checks.yaml ^
  --package-name=platform-checks ^
  --package-contents=oracle-checks.yaml,postgres-checks.yaml,sqlserver-checks.yaml

This creates a package file called liquibase.security-checks.yaml. The file contains one package object (platform-checks), which contains three checks settings files for different databases:

checksPackages: - name: platform-checks files: - oracle-checks.yaml - postgres-checks.yaml - sqlserver-checks.yaml
