H2 Database: How to have lowercase for tablename?

Question

• I want to keep all my tablenames as lowercase. example person

• I use Liquibase to setup my database and it looks like

  http://www.liquibase.org/xml/ns/dbchangelog/dbchangelog-3.1.xsd"> Add Person Table

I use H2 database to run my integration tests and set up in pom.xml as

   <cargo.datasource.datasource.earth>
        cargo.datasource.driver=${h2.driver}|
        cargo.datasource.url=${datasource.url}|
        cargo.datasource.jndi=${datasource.jndi}|
        cargo.datasource.username=${h2.user}|
        cargo.datasource.password=${h2.user}
    </cargo.datasource.datasource.earth>

where datasource.url looks like

<datasource.url>jdbc:h2:${project.build.directory}/earth;DATABASE_TO_UPPER=false</datasource.url>

When I run mvn, I see

As you can see, liquibase created person table and I used DATABASE_TO_UPPER=false for H2 which made it from PERSON to Person

Question
How can I tell H2 that my tables are all lowercase -> person and not Person?

Answer 1

Try to use in H2 connection URL setting "database_to_upper=false".

Answer 2

Use DATABASE_TO_LOWER=TRUE in h2 connection URL. Example :

url: jdbc:h2:mem:testdb;MODE=PostgreSQL;DATABASE_TO_LOWER=TRUE;CASE_INSENSITIVE_IDENTIFIERS=TRUE;
