Testing

There is a sample Lando config you can use to spin up two separate mysql databases for testing, as well as a sample SQL file containing random data generated by Mockaroo.

lando start
lando db-import sampledata.sql --host real_database

Configuration

sanitize_tables:
  # List of tables and their columns you want sanitized.
  user:
  - mail
trim_tables:
# List of tables to be trimmed (every 4th row kept)
  - trim1
excluded_tables:
# Tables to NOT dump
  - exclude1
scrub_tables:
# Tables to dump sans content.
  - scrub1
keep_data:
# Keep data in these tables by key
  table_name:
    col: col_name
    # Only row with col value of 1
    rows:
      - 1
  table_name_2:
  # Every other row, using mod
    col: other_col_name
    rows: 2

  table_name_3:
  # Every row with a value of 1, 3 or 8.
    col: third_col_name
    rows: 1, 3, 8

CLI

First you'll want to copy .janitor.example.yml to .janitor.yml. You can then go in and edit exactly which tables and columns you want sanitized/ignored/cleared.

If not using the .phar, install dependencies with composer install.

Dumping

This will prompt you for the database password, then produce a gzip'd .sql file in the output/ directory.

./janitor.phar --host=localhost:8787 --username=real real | gzip -c > output/real_test.sql.gz

Trimming

Trimming allows much smaller database dumps by reducing the data exported through the use of keeping data, scrubbing tables, and so on.

./janitor.phar --host=localhost:8787 --username=real --trim real | gzip -c > output/real_test.sql.gz
