If your project has more than a single developer, we suggest running sqlc as
part of your CI/CD pipeline. The four subcommands you'll want to run are diff,
vet, verify and push
sqlc diff ensures that your generated code is up to date. New developers to a
project may forget to run sqlc generate after adding a query or updating a
schema. They also might edit generated code. sqlc diff will catch both errors
by comparing the expected output from sqlc generate to what's on disk.

`sqlc vet runs a set of lint rules against your SQL queries. These rules are
helpful in catching anti-patterns before they make it into production. Please
see the vet documentation for a complete guide to adding lint rules
for your project.
sqlc verify ensures that schema changes do not break production. Existing
queries are checked against new schema changes for correctness. Please see the
verify documentation for a complete guide.
sqlc push pushes your database schema, queries and configuration to sqlc
Cloud. These archives are used by verify to catch breaking changes to your
database schema. Learn more about uploading projects here
Install sqlc using the suggested instructions.
Create three steps in your pipeline for sqlc diff, sqlc vet, and sqlc verify. Run sqlc push after merge on your main branch.
We provide the setup-sqlc
GitHub Action to install sqlc. The action uses the built-in
tool-cache
to speed up the installation process.
The following GitHub Workflow configuration runs sqlc diff on every push.
name: sqlc
on: [push]
jobs:
diff:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v3
- uses: sqlc-dev/setup-sqlc@v3
with:
sqlc-version: '1.28.0'
- run: sqlc diffThe following GitHub Workflow configuration runs sqlc vet on every push.
You can use sqlc vet without a database connection, but you'll need one if your
sqlc configuration references the built-in sqlc/db-prepare lint rule.
