Installation ​

The DbToolsBundle follows Symfony Best Practices for Bundles, you should not be lost if you are a regular Symfony developer.

Requirements & Dependencies ​

• PHP 8.1 or higher
• Symfony 6.0 or higher
• Doctrine/DBAL, the DbToolsBundle takes advantage of available DBAL connections

Currently supported database vendors:

• PostgreSQL 10 and above
  (previous versions from 9.5 are untested but should work)
• MariaDB 10.11 and above
• MySQL 8.0 and above
• SQLite 3.0 and above
• SQL Server 2019 and above
  (previous versions from 2015 are untested but should work)

Installation ​

Add the DbToolsBundle to your Symfony project with composer:

composer require makinacorpus/db-tools-bundle

Then, activate the bundle:

// config/bundles.php

return [
    Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\FrameworkBundle::class => ['all' => true],
    //...
    Doctrine\Bundle\DoctrineBundle\DoctrineBundle::class => ['all' => true],
    Doctrine\Bundle\MigrationsBundle\DoctrineMigrationsBundle::class => ['all' => true],
    // ...
    MakinaCorpus\DbToolsBundle\DbToolsBundle::class => ['all' => true], 
];

Finally, copy the default configuration file from the vendor directory:

cd your_project_dir
cp vendor/makinacorpus/db-tools-bundle/config/packages/db_tools.yaml config/packages/

Feel free to read this configuration file, it will learn you basics about this bundle.

That's it, DbToolsBundle is now ready to be used.

But before starting to use it, check if the DbToolsBundle succeeds to find backup and restore binaries for your(s) Doctrine connection(s):

php bin/console db-tools:check
