Online docs (1.0 and 1.1) are also a bit vague: "additional-options = <mysqldump arguments>
Can optionally specify additional options directly to mysqldump if there is no native Holland option for it." That said, I wonder if it would be better to use the latter syntax (if possible) as it feels more like what you would put on the command-line? Otherwise, yes, this needs updating and clarification. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Holland Build, which is subscribed to holland-backup. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/801691 Title: mysqldump additional-options behavior discrepancy Status in Holland Backup Framework: New Status in holland-backup 1.0 series: New Status in holland-backup 1.1 series: New Bug description: The mysqldump plugin expects the 'additional-options' setting to provide a comma separated list. However the configspec currently has a comment that notes this should be provided "exactly as on the command line". This causes multiple options to be misinterpretted (and mysqldump will fail) and is confusing. The comment/documentation at least needs to be clear on the format required here and possibly the implementation updated. Example: additional-options = --no-data, --routines # OK additional-options = --no-data --routines # misinterpreted as mysqldump "--no-data --routines" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/holland-backup/+bug/801691/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~holland-coredev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~holland-coredev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
