Multiple Objects Policy Check
The multiple objects policy check lets you verify whether objects in your database adhere to naming conventions you specify. You can use it to test multiple types of objects at the same time, rather than creating individual checks for each one.
The name of the multiple objects check depends on what kind of search you want to make:
--check-name=ObjectNameMustMatchspecifies a positive search--check-name=ObjectNameMustNotMatchspecifies a negative search
Liquibase supports this check on the following objects:
TABLECOLUMNSEQUENCE
Using the multiple objects check
You can create a new multiple objects check with the following command:
liquibase checks copy --check-name=[ObjectNameMustMatch|ObjectNameMustNotMatch]Liquibase then asks how you want to configure the check attributes. Here is an example of the configuration prompts in the CLI:
Give your check a short name for easier identification (up to 64 alpha-numeric characters only) [ObjectNameMustMatch1]:
New check 'ObjectNameMustMatch1' created from 'ObjectNameMustMatch'
Set the Severity to return a code of 0-4 when triggered. (options: 'INFO'|0, 'MINOR'|1, 'MAJOR'|2, 'CRITICAL'|3, 'BLOCKER'|4 )? [INFO]:
Set 'OPERATOR' (options: STARTS_WITH, ENDS_WITH, CONTAINS, REGEXP) [STARTS_WITH]:
Set 'SEARCH_STRING' (options: a string, or a valid regular expression) : helloworld
Set 'OBJECT_TYPES' to check, separated by commas (options: TABLE, COLUMN, SEQUENCE) : table,column
Set 'CASE_SENSITIVE' (options: true, false) [true]:To edit your check later, run the liquibase checks customize command. To validate your changelog with the multiple objects check, run the following command:
