About:
Skeema is a declarative schema management tool that allows you to define MySQL and MariaDB database schemas purely in SQL files. It automatically compares your desired schema against the actual database state and generates the necessary DDL statements for synchronization. This approach ensures version-controlled, repeatable, and safe database migrations without the complexity of traditional migration-based tools.
Key Features:
  • Declarative schema management using pure SQL
  • Automatic diff generation between desired and actual schema
  • Git-friendly workflow for schema versioning
  • Support for both MySQL and MariaDB
  • Safe, dry-run capable migrations
Use Cases:
  • Managing database schemas in version control systems
  • Automating schema synchronization across multiple environments
  • Enforcing consistent database structures in CI/CD pipelines
Alternatives:
  • Liquibase – Java-based, supports multiple databases, more complex configuration
  • Flyway – Migration-based approach, requires manual migration scripts
  • pt-online-schema-change – Percona tool focused on zero-downtime ALTERs, not declarative management
