通过Octopus和TeamCity将数据库包部署到SQL Server

很好的问题，要将Redgate的工具与Octopus Deploy一起使用，您将需要安装它们提供的步骤模板。我建议创建数据库发行版并部署数据库发行版。当浏览步骤模板时，您可能会注意到该步骤模板可以直接从程序包中进行部署。SQL Change Automation的基于状态的功能通过将存储在NuGet包中的数据库的状态与目标数据库进行比较来工作。每次运行时，它都会创建一组新的增量脚本来应用。因此，建议的过程是：

1. 将数据库包下载到跳转框中。
2. 通过将跳转框上的包与SQL Server上的数据库进行比较来创建增量脚本。
3. 查看增量脚本（可以在开发和测试中跳过）。
4. 使用跳转框上的触手在SQL Server上运行脚本。

让我们继续前进，逐一进行。下载软件包步骤非常简单，除了选择软件包名称外，没有其他自定义设置。

Redgate-创建数据库发布步骤更加有趣。这是生成将在数据库上运行的实际增量脚本的步骤。让大多数人绊倒的是出口之路。导出路径是增量脚本将导出到的路径。该目录必须是Octopus Deploy tentacle文件夹之外的目录。这是因为“ Redgate-从数据库发布部署”步骤需要访问该路径，并且每个步骤的Tentacle文件夹都不同。

我想做的是使用项目变量。

变量的完整值为：

C:\RedGate\#{Octopus.Project.Name}\#{Octopus.Release.Number}\Database\Export

The next step is approving the database release. I recommend creating a custom team to be responsible for this. My preference is to skip this step in Dev and QA.

The create database release step makes use of the artifact functionality built into Octopus Deploy. This allows the approver to download the files and review them.

The final step is deploying the database release. This step takes the delta script in the export data path and runs it on the target server. This is why I recommend putting the export path in a variable.

Some other general items to help get going. First, don't install tentacles directly onto SQL Server instances. In production, the typical SQL Server set up is a cluster or they have multiple nodes with always-on high availability. Access to SQL Server is handled via a virtual IP.

If you were to install tentacles on both nodes, Octopus Deploy would attempt to run the change script on both nodes at the same time (by default). That will cause a lot of drama. I recommend using a jump box because you will need something to sit between Octopus Deploy and SQL Server. When you get comfortable with that I'd recommend using workers (but that is a bit of scope creep, so I won't cover that).

If you would like to know more on how to wire this up, check out the blog post I wrote (and copied from for this answer) here.

I also have written an entire series on database deployments with Octopus Deploy, which you can find here.

最后，我们的文档涵盖了用户进行数据库部署所需的跳转框和权限。

希望有帮助！
