You will need to add a configuration file named .surgio-tools.yml to your home directory that contains your local database credentials. For example:

database:
  host: 127.0.0.1
  username: root
  password: secret
  database: dbname
  port: 3306

You can create this file by running

cp surgio-tools.yml.example ~/.surgio-tools.yml

But it's up to you to edit the configuration file with the appropriate details.

Usage

Clone a database

To clone a database, run stool clone --from db_name --to db_clone

By default this will update any detected Laravel .env file that exists in the current working directory, to change the DATABASE= entry to point to the cloned database. If you wish to not update your .env file, add the flag --switch=false

Drop a database

To drop a database, run: stool drop --name name_of_db or stool drop -n name_of_db

Switch your environment database

To change which database your environment is using, run:

stool switch --name new_db or stool switch -n new_db
