Maven futureRollbackSQL
futureRollbackSQL is a helper goal that produces the raw SQL Liquibase would need to roll back changes that have not yet been deployed to your database.
Uses
futureRollbackSQL is typically used when you want to inspect the raw SQL Liquibase would use to revert changes associated with undeployed changesets. The futureRollbackSQL goal generates the SQL that is required to roll back the database to the current state after the next update.
It is best practice to inspect SQL Liquibase would run when using the update goal so you can review any changes the command would make to your database.
Note: The updateSQL goal is also a helper goal that you can use before running the update goal. The main difference is that updateSQL creates objects associated with undeployed changesets and futureRollbackSQL drops objects associated with undeployed changesets.
Maven configuration
Liquibase Maven can be configured in multiple ways. One way is to define your Liquibase configuration properties in your pom.xml file. To configure your pom.xml file, refer to Configuring Liquibase Attributes in your Maven POM File. If your pom.xml does not reference a liquibase.properties file, include <changeLogFile>specify your changelog file here</changeLogFile> to the pom.xml.
Also, before running the futureRollbackSQL goal, add <outputChangeLogFile>yourOutputFileName.txt</outputChangeLogFile> to your pom.xml file.
Running the futureRollbackSQL Maven goal
Running the futureRollbackSQL goal requires a Maven project to be implemented.
To run the goal, type the following in your command prompt:
mvn liquibase:futureRollbackSQL
Output
When successful, the futureRollbackSQL Maven goal produces the following output:
