[jira] [Commented] (DERBY-1851) Create full SQL export of Database (including INSERTs)

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1851?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13534464#comment-13534464 ] 

Ari Maniatis commented on DERBY-1851:
-------------------------------------

Some notes for people finding this issue:

The dblook tool (http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.8/tools/ctoolsdblook.html) will get the structure of the database and export it as a SQL script.

But it doesn't extract the data.

You could perhaps use the backup and restore utilities, but the format of a Derby backup is not a sql script.

The Apache 'ddlutils' tool can extract and move the data, I believe. See: http://db.apache.org/derby/integrate/db_ddlutils.html and http://db.apache.org/ddlutils/

> Currently DERBY supports to backup a database (binary) or to create the DDL of the database. It would be very helpful (as known from hsqldb) if it would be possible to export a full database including content; i.e., CREATE, ALTER and INSERT statements.
> This is particularly nice for development issues when a schema is often changing...
