Usage

import mysqldump from '@assignar/mysqldump'
// or const mysqldump = require('@assignar/mysqldump')

// dump the result straight to a file
mysqldump({
    connection: {

        user: 'root',
        password: '123456',
        database: 'my_database',
    },
    dumpToFile: './dump.sql',
})

// return the dump from the function and not to a file
const result = await mysqldump({
    connection: {
        host: 'localhost',
        user: 'root',
        password: '123456',

Installation

Make sure to first install all the required development dependencies:

yarn
// or
npm install .

Linting

We use eslint in conjunction with typescript-eslint-parser for code linting.

PRs are required to pass the linting with no errors and preferrably no warnings.

Testing

Tests can be run via the test script - yarn test / npm test.

Additionally it's required that you do a build and run your test against the public package to ensure the build doesn't cause regressions - yarn run test-prod / npm run test-prod.

PRs are required to maintain the 100% test coverage, and all tests must pass successfully.
