Right now mp just provides infrastructure for running SQL, so you can just put the SQL statements to load your stored procedures directly into your migrations.

I've never tested on Oracle. I'd love to hear if it works well (I don't see any reason it shouldn't).

Also someone else is working on a OO DDL for use from inside mp migrations.

Hey - this sounds pretty awesome. How are you handling different RDBMS? I'm also very interested to see your support for stored procedures (or PL/SQL in Oracle).

Thank you for working on this!

Fabio-

Thanks for the comment! I am excited to see people excited about the project.

I didn't realize getopt didn't work on windows. PHP getopt kinda sucks anyway, as you'll noticed long options don't work either since they don't work on my platform.

I actually want to re-write the options infrastructure, too. That might be another little project :) Good CLI apps are really useful but unfortunately there's not really any good tools to do so in PHP that I know of.

Please let me know if you need anything for working on the schema manipulation API. Clearly it'd be a great addition for apps that care about db-agnosticism.

Thanks!

Hi Alan,

First I'd like to thank you for releasing this library :-)

The only thing that I missed was that the command line utility doesn't work on windows because of 'getopt' method. It is a method that only works on windows since PHP 5.3

I was working on something similar but didn't have the time to get to the migration itself. I started implementing what you've called 'generic schema manipulation API' and I'm willing to integrate it into MP soon.
