Thread: Comparing two databases for differences

Comparing two databases for differences

From

Date:
Running PostgreSQL 9.3.5 on Linux.

Does anyone know of an easy way to compare 2 database instances?  Especially the stored procedures and tables from the
twodatabases.
 

Thank you in advance.

The easiest way to compare schema by using https://github.com/omniti-labs/pg_extractor to dump objects into separate git repo for each database and look for difference in both repos.

The Nagios module check_postgres.pl has the ability to compare database
instances.

    Thanks!

you don't have to use Git repo. Just dump objects using pg_extractors in two folders and run "diff" between them.

To expand on how easy this is:

wget -q http://bucardo.org/downloads/check_postgres.pl

perl check_postgres.pl --action=same_schema --db=mydb1 --db=mydb2

More details here:

I used this before and it worked great http://apgdiff.com/, but it cannot compare data, only schemas and stored procedures.
