CLI Reference

The revisium-cli provides commands for schema management, migrations, data export/import, and synchronization between Revisium instances.

Connection URL

All commands use the revisium:// protocol to connect:

revisium://host/org/project/branch?token=...

Part	Example	Description
host	cloud.revisium.io, localhost:9222	Revisium instance
org	admin	Organization (= username)
project	my-project	Project name
branch	master	Branch name
?token=...	JWT token	Authentication (optional for standalone without auth)

Examples

# Cloud
revisium://cloud.revisium.io/myuser/my-project/master?token=eyJ...

# Standalone (no auth)
revisium://localhost:9222/admin/my-project/master

# Docker
revisium://localhost:8080/admin/my-project/master?token=eyJ...

Environment Variables

Instead of --url, set these:

Variable	Description
REVISIUM_URL	Default connection URL
REVISIUM_TOKEN	JWT token
REVISIUM_USERNAME	Username (for auto-login)
REVISIUM_PASSWORD	Password (for auto-login)

Interactive Mode

If --url is not provided and no environment variables are set, the CLI prompts interactively for connection details.

schema

schema save

Export all table schemas to local JSON files:

npx revisium schema save \
  --folder ./schemas \
  --url revisium://localhost:9222/admin/my-project/master

Creates one file per table: ./schemas/products.json, ./schemas/categories.json, etc.

schema create-migrations

Generate migration file from exported schemas:

npx revisium schema create-migrations \
  --schemas-folder ./schemas \
  --file ./migrations.json

• Analyzes foreign key dependencies between tables
• Sorts tables in dependency order
• Generates init migration for each table
• Computes SHA-1 hash for integrity

---

migrate

migrate save

Export migrations from a Revisium instance to a local file:

npx revisium migrate save \
  --file ./migrations.json \
  --url revisium://localhost:9222/admin/my-project/master

migrate apply

Apply migrations from a local file to a Revisium instance:

npx revisium migrate apply \
  --file ./migrations.json \
  --url revisium://localhost:9222/admin/my-project/master

Options:

Flag	Default	Description
-f, --file	required	Migration JSON file
-c, --commit	false	Create a revision after applying

Already-applied migrations are skipped (idempotent).

Typical Workflow

The most common workflow — export migrations from one instance, apply to another:

# 1. Export migrations from dev
npx revisium migrate save --file ./migrations.json \
  --url revisium://localhost:9222/admin/my-project/master

# 2. Apply to staging
npx revisium migrate apply --file ./migrations.json --commit \
  --url revisium://staging.example.com/admin/my-project/master?token=...

# 3. Apply to production
npx revisium migrate apply --file ./migrations.json --commit \
  --url revisium://prod.example.com/admin/my-project/master?token=...

Initial Migration Generation

If you don't have a migration file yet (first time), generate one from existing schemas:

# 1. Export schemas
npx revisium schema save --folder ./schemas \
  --url revisium://localhost:9222/admin/my-project/master

# 2. Generate migrations from schemas
npx revisium schema create-migrations \
  --schemas-folder ./schemas --file ./migrations.json

---

rows

rows save

Export all row data to local JSON files:

npx revisium rows save \
  --folder ./data \
  --url revisium://localhost:9222/admin/my-project/master

Creates directory structure: ./data/products/iphone-16.json, ./data/products/macbook-m4.json, etc.

Options:

Flag	Default	Description
-f, --folder	required	Output folder
-t, --tables	all	Comma-separated table IDs to export

# Export specific tables only
npx revisium rows save --folder ./data --tables products,categories \
  --url revisium://localhost:9222/admin/my-project/master

rows upload

Upload row data from local files to a Revisium instance:

npx revisium rows upload \
  --folder ./data \
  --url revisium://localhost:9222/admin/my-project/master

Options:

Flag	Default	Description
-f, --folder	required	Folder with row files
-t, --tables	all	Comma-separated table IDs to upload
-c, --commit	false	Create a revision after uploading
--batch-size	100	Rows per batch for bulk operations

• Validates rows against table schema before upload
• Respects foreign key dependency order
• Creates new rows or updates existing ones
• Reports statistics: created, updated, skipped, errors

# Upload with commit and custom batch size
npx revisium rows upload --folder ./data --commit --batch-size 50 \
  --url revisium://localhost:9222/admin/my-project/master

---

sync

Synchronize directly between two Revisium instances — no intermediate files needed.

sync all

Sync both schemas (migrations) and data from source to target:

npx revisium sync all \
  --source revisium://localhost:9222/admin/my-project/master \
  --target revisium://staging.example.com/admin/my-project/master?token=...

sync schema

Sync schema migrations only:

npx revisium sync schema \
  --source revisium://localhost:9222/admin/my-project/master \
  --target revisium://staging.example.com/admin/my-project/master?token=...

sync data

Sync row data only:

npx revisium sync data \
  --source revisium://localhost:9222/admin/my-project/master \
  --target revisium://staging.example.com/admin/my-project/master?token=... \
  --tables products,categories

Sync Options

Flag	Default	Description
-s, --source	env	Source Revisium URL
-t, --target	env	Target Revisium URL
-c, --commit	false	Commit changes on target after sync
-d, --dry-run	false	Preview changes without applying
--tables	all	Comma-separated table IDs (applies to data sync in sync data and sync all)
--batch-size	100	Rows per batch (applies to data sync in sync data and sync all)

Environment Variables for Sync

Variable	Description
REVISIUM_SOURCE_URL	Source connection URL
REVISIUM_SOURCE_TOKEN	Source JWT token
REVISIUM_SOURCE_USERNAME	Source username
REVISIUM_SOURCE_PASSWORD	Source password
REVISIUM_TARGET_URL	Target connection URL
REVISIUM_TARGET_TOKEN	Target JWT token
REVISIUM_TARGET_USERNAME	Target username
REVISIUM_TARGET_PASSWORD	Target password

Dry Run

Preview what would change without applying:

npx revisium sync all --dry-run \
  --source revisium://localhost:9222/admin/my-project/master \
  --target revisium://staging.example.com/admin/my-project/master?token=...
