Add a wiki database Organic Design procedure |
Usage
Note: The databases referred to in the add-db command must pre-exist
add-db TEMPLATE DB1.PREFIX1 [DB2.]PREFIX2 [DB3.]PREFIX3...
Where,
TEMPLATE is the name of the *.sql file or db.prefix to use as the template.
DB*.PREFIX* are the databases to replicate the template into and the
table prefixes to use (prefixes are mandatory).
Notes:
- There is also an add-wiki script in MW maintenance dir which we need to check out
- The database dump being used as a template should only contain one wiki.
- It should not include create or drop database statements.
- The destination databases must already exist
- The destination tables will be replaced if they exist
- The DB part is optional for all but the first and means to continue using the previous database.\n"
