👐 Creating a New Project
Ensure the Relational Migrator is installed and running (either in your codespace or locally at http://127.0.0.1:8278/).
Create a New Project
- First Time using Relational Migrator
- I already have a project!
If you're running the Relational Migrator for the first time, you will see a welcome screen. We will Start from scratch and click on Connect database.
Click on the New Project button in the top right corner of the Relational Migrator UI.
Select one of the three options
- 👐 Click Connect database under "Connect to live database" if you are running the source database in the cloud, Docker or using your own hardware. This is what we will use during an instructor-led hands-on lab.
- 🦸♂️ Click Import .SQL file under "Load schema from a file" if you don't have access to a source database and just want to work with the schema (you won't have any data to import though).
- 🦸♂️ Click Create sample under "Use a sample schema" to play around with a test schema, without any data. This does not require connecting to a real DB. We won't use this one in this Lab.
