How to setup latest version of liquibase through bash script?

Question

I used to install liquibase older version e.g

   `wget https://github.com/downloads/liquibase/liquibase/liquibase-2.0.5-bin.tar.gz`

and proceed with extraction and move it to desired location . I am unable to locate latest version of liquibase on github. Probably its removed or unavailable ?

Liquibase download page has only link to source-forge , could someone help me how to wget a package from source-forge ?

Edit I am not sure of github, it seems there are no builds available for latest version. However, my complete script looks like this:

#!/bin/bash
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y openjdk-7-jre-headless
sudo apt-get install -y libmysql-java
LV="3.1.1"
function setupLiquibase(){
  source $HOME/.profile

  INSTALLED="$(command -v liquibase)"

  # if not added already
  if [ -z "$LIQUIBASE_HOME" ]
    then
      echo  'export MYSQL_JCONNECTOR=/usr/share/java/mysql-connector-java.jar'|sudo tee -a $HOME/.profile
      echo  'export LIQUIBASE_HOME=/usr/local/liquibase' |sudo tee -a $HOME/.profile
      echo  'export PATH=$PATH:$LIQUIBASE_HOME'|sudo tee -a $HOME/.profile
  fi

  if [ -z "$INSTALLED" ]
    then
        echo "Installing liquibase $LV "
        sudo rm -rf liquibase*
        wget http://kaz.dl.sourceforge.net/project/liquibase/Liquibase%20Core/liquibase-"$LV"-bin.tar.gz
        gunzip liquibase-"$LV"-bin.tar.gz
        sudo mkdir /usr/local/liquibase
        sudo tar -xf liquibase-"$LV"-bin.tar -C /usr/local/liquibase
        sudo chmod +x /usr/local/liquibase/liquibase
    else
        INSTALLED="$(liquibase --version)"
        echo "Liquibase is already installed, ${INSTALLED}"
  fi
}

Answer 1

Try to download it with this command line

wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/liquibase/files/Liquibase%20Core/liquibase-3.2.0-bin.tar.gz/download -O liquibase-3.2.0-bin.tar.gz

To choose a filename for the download you can specify the option -O nomefile (Note that it is a capital o not a 0).

If you forget (like I did the first time) to specify -O nomefile you will have on the hard disk a file with the name as guessed by wget. So:

http://Site/FullPath/liquibase-3.2.0-bin.tar.gz/download  --> download

and after you have to rename by hands the file download.

If instead it was

http://Site/FullPath/liquibase-3.2.0-bin.tar.gz  --> liquibase-3.2.0-bin.tar.gz

you will have directly the file with the correct name.

Github moved downloads section to /release.

So your url becomes:

https://github.com/liquibase/liquibase/archive/liquibase-parent-3.2.0.tar.gz

Answer 3

I use apache ivy to download liquibase and its database driver dependencies from Maven Central.

Ivy itself is just a jar and can also be downloaded from Maven Central.

Example

This example runs a standard liquibase changeset and creates a h2 database. The bash script will download and cache required jars.

├── changesets
│   └── scottTiger.xml
├── ivy.xml
├── liquibase.properties
└── liquibase.sh

Run as follows

./liquibase.sh update

liquibase.sh

Apache ivy can be used as an executable jar.

#!/bin/bash
java -jar $HOME/.ant/lib/ivy.jar \
     -error \
     -ivy ivy.xml \
     -main liquibase.integration.commandline.Main \
     -args $@

ivy.xml

<ivy-module version="2.0">
    <info organisation="com.myspotontheweb" module="demo"/>
    <dependencies>
        <dependency org="org.liquibase" name="liquibase-core" rev="latest.release" conf="default"/>
        <dependency org="com.h2database" name="h2" rev="latest.release" conf="default"/>
    </dependencies>
</ivy-module>

liquibase.properties

url=jdbc:h2:./db/scottTiger
driver=org.h2.Driver

changeLogFile=changesets/scottTiger.xml
