How to handle database changes made by automatic update script while using Liquibase?

Question

I'm developing a web application that also use Wordpress as part of it. I want to use Liquibase to track my database changes.

How to handle database changes made by automatic update script of Wordpress?

Can I just ignore them? and put only my own changes in Liquibase changelog file?

Answer 1

You could do a diffChangelog of the schemas after each WordPress upgrade so that Liquibase could keep track of the changes. You can just ignore them though - Liquibase doesn't really care about unknown schema objects. The only issue would be if your changes and the WordPress changes conflicted.
