Liquibase Postgresql Extension

The vacuum extension adds an additional changelog tag/command to support vacuuming. As of version 1.0, it only supports database-level vacuuming. Future versions will include table-level config as well as support for controlling vacuum options.

Note: vacuum cannot run in a transaction, so specify runInTransaction="false" in the containing changeset.

There is currently no dedicated .xsd file using an XML-based changelog. Therefore, use the standard extension xsd of http://www.liquibase.org/xml/ns/dbchangelog/dbchangelog-ext.xsd.

Available Commands/Tags

<vacuum>

Vacuums PostgreSQL database.

Configuring the extension

These instructions will help you get the extension up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. This extension has a prerequisite of Liquibase core in order to use it. Liquibase core can be found at https://www.liquibase.org/download.

Liquibase CLI

Download the latest released Liquibase extension .jar file and place it in the liquibase/lib install directory. If you want to use another location, specify the extension .jar file in the classpath of your liquibase.properties file.

Maven

Specify the Liquibase extension in the <dependency> section of your POM file by adding the org.liquibase.ext dependency for the Liquibase plugin.

<plugin>
     <!--start with basic information to get Liquibase plugin:
     include <groupId>, <artifactID>, and <version> elements-->
     <groupId>org.liquibase</groupId>
     <artifactId>liquibase-maven-plugin</artifactId>
     <version>4.3.2</version>
     <configuration>
        <!--set values for Liquibase properties and settings
        for example, the location of a properties file to use-->
        <propertyFile>liquibase.properties</propertyFile>
     </configuration>
     <dependencies>
     <!--set up any dependencies for Liquibase to function in your
     environment for example, a database-specific plugin-->
            <dependency>
                 <groupId>org.liquibase.ext</groupId>
                 <artifactId>liquibase-postgresql</artifactId>
