Description MZMcBride 2013-10-08 04:01:55 UTC
Related to bug 54847.

I'd like the ability to regularly read a report that shows the differences between the Labs database replicas and the production databases. This would be helpful for:

* finding new core or extension table columns or databases that have been deployed that aren't yet exposed via a view; and

* analyzing what can and can't be additionally exposed (for example, watchlist and archive).

Basically this is a request for a regularly updated status report (or diff) between the two data sets. What's available on production vs. what's available on Labs.
Comment 1 MZMcBride 2013-10-13 19:19:04 UTC
Providing schema-only dumps of the databases from the Labs side and the production would allow for nice-ish diffs, maybe.
Comment 2 Rodrigo Sampaio Primo 2014-09-06 21:55:28 UTC
I think that a good start would be to add a list of the missing tables and columns to the page below.
