EndDelimiterExistsWhenPatternExists
Last updated: July 14, 2025
This check triggers when the following criteria are met:
- A changeset contains the supplied pattern string or regex. - No end delimiter exists specifically in the changeset or via options such as the 'pro-global-end-delimiter' or 'endDelimiter' attribute set on a specific changeset and/or 'endDelimiter' set in a changelog called by include or includeAll in modifyChangeSets tag.
Uses
Property | Value |
Liquibase version required | 4.27.0+ |
Scope (--checks-scope) | changelog |
Default status | disabled |
Default severity (exit code) | 0 ("INFO") |
Customizable settings | Yes (dynamic) |
Certain changesets need an end delimiter specifically set, while others do not need the end delimiter. This check makes sure changesets that require an end delimiter have one before moving forward in a job.
If a custom pattern exists in a changeset, then that changeset must have an enddelimiter. If the enddelimiter does not exist, this check notifies the user.
