Best Format for Database Seed Replay
SQL is the best default when replay accuracy, transactions, and schema-aware setup matter more than raw interchange simplicity.
Primaire aanbeveling
SQL (Data)
SQL preserves database-native operations like transactions, DDL, and ordered seed replay in a way flat exports cannot.

Fallback- en alternatieve formaten
CSV (Document)
Bestanden: 21
Use CSV for tabular interchange where downstream loading rules are already defined.
Voorbeelden HubJSON (Document)
Bestanden: 19
Use JSON when nested structures and payload debugging matter more than SQL replay semantics.
Voorbeelden HubSQLITE (Data)
Bestanden: 3
Use SQLite snapshots when you need portable embedded state instead of text-based replay.
Voorbeelden HubBeslisfactoren
- Need for transactional replay versus flat data import.
- Requirement to preserve schema changes, ordering, and rollback behavior.
- Portability across toolchains versus database-native execution fidelity.
- How often support or QA needs to inspect and diff the fixture by hand.
Veelvoorkomende fouten om te vermijden
- Using CSV as the only seed artifact when ordered transactional replay is required.
- Treating a large SQL fixture like a dummy blob instead of validating it against a real parser and database.
- Skipping rollback rehearsal before promoting large seed loads into CI or staging.
