jdbc-maven-plugin

I am very interested in the DRY principle and how this principle can be applied across numerous use-cases. Specifically this project is in support of applying this principle within the context of relational databases.

This project is a JDBC maven plugin which allows handlers to be invoked to generate specific artifacts off of a database. The intention is that the handlers would interrogate the database's schema and produce either a software artifact or an artifact for human consumption. Two projects that illustrate how to use this plugin are:

• schemadoc-8-handler: generates a schema diagram based on the underlying tables and foreign key structures. An example project that uses this handler can be found at schemadoc-8-example.
• jsqldsl-8-handler: generates Java classes to describe the table structure and foreign key relationships to support a type-safe JDBC interface into the associated database.
