I went through Flyway documentation and did not found the TimescaleDB in the supported databases.
Can anyone confirm if Flyway supports TimescaleDB. If not, is there any other CI/CD tool for TimescaleDB?
We haven't formally tested Flyway on TimescaleDB, but it appears that people have successfully used it (as it's essentially an extension of Postgres). The normal Postgres JDBC connection url should work - and if you have problems, submit an issue at http://github.com/flyway/flyway

I'm evaluating Flyway and want to know if it can check for the presence of any externally made changes? I.e. if someone makes a change directly to the database, outside of Flyway, can I catch that?
I tried validate and info but it doesn't seem to notice.
No, it can't. Flyway expects you to make all changes to what you want it to manage (structure, reference data, ...) via Flyway.
Here at Redgate we support the concept of a schema snapshot. If you use either SQL Server or Oracle (as these are the database we have best support for) then you can take a snapshot after deployment and later compare this artifact with target database the next time you deploy to make sure that it hasn't "drifted". Our tools can also output a candidate Flyway migration script that will ensure Flyway is consistent with the actual target. If you're interested in this approach I can send you sample scripts of how this is achieved. But remember, this only works with Oracle and SQL Server.
very new to flyway and have added it to my project using flyway-maven-plugin.
using oracle 11g db.
Looks to be great for database versioning in a development environment but can anyone tell me:
how to use to produce database create/upgrade artifacts that i can send to a customer.
we have packages, data, ddls etc (that would be nice inside an installer)
Thanks in advance.
You can always bundle the migrations directly with the Flyway Command-line tool and send that.
It's my first time using Geddy JS and I'm starting to like it but when I tried using sqlite for development db I keep getting Model adapter not found for Page. Set .adapter for this model, or set model.defaultAdapter when I run geddy jake db:init / migrate.
Thanks
Sqlite3 support is very new. In fact, I don't think it's even on NPM yet because #mde was just working on it today.
For updates on this feature you can hop on the #geddy freenode IRC channel, or join our mailing list.
We also have a filesystem adapter that might already be on NPM. If it isn't, it should be soon.
I'm working on a node.js project and I would like to use some kind of database to store application data. I've searched for various DBMS and I've selected SQLite because I want my project to be able to run without installing heavy DBMS and because I want it to run both on linux and windows. however, all modules that we found, that connect node with SQLite are either very old, or cannot be installed due to bugs.
so, I want to ask if nowadays, 2012, there is a completely functional node.js module for SQLite.
I did a project last July (2012) in Node.JS v0.8.8, using the node-sqlite module (see https://github.com/developmentseed/node-sqlite3) and it worked just fine.
And, I successfully deployed and used this module on Heroku. However, the deployed portion of the project only involved reading out of the SQLite database – not writing. I suspect that writing into a SQLite deployed on Heroku would cause some issues, because it involves modifying the SQLite file in the file system, which AFAIK Heroku doesn't let you do.
I am interested in testing flyway and if I am not wrong I read that it supports db changes both through java and SQL. I am a dba and familiar with SQL but not java.
I read through the “Getting Started” page and wanted to try out the sample application available under the “Downloads tab” link however I couldn’t find any readme document explaining the available downloads which appeared to contain .jar files.
Q) is there an instruction manual for a newbies to explain how to put together this sample application?
Q) can one uses flyway without knowing java? If yes, please provide any how-to url/notes/documents available. If not do you have any how-to for one to get started with java just enough to operate this tool?
Thanks Bob
I think you might find the command line tool useful:
http://flywaydb.org/documentation/commandline/
As it says on the website:
The Flyway command-line tool is meant for users who
do not run their applications on the JVM
wish to migration their database from the command-line without having to install Maven
You may need to browse the source code to figure out some more details:
https://github.com/flyway/flyway
Although I think you should be able to adapt the regular documentation to the CLI option.
