Liquibase 4.6.0 is a major release

Please report any issues to https://github.com/liquibase/liquibase/issues

Notable Changes

Starting with version 4.6.0, the Windows and Mac/Linux Liquibase installers and the .tar.gz and .zip installation files include the most common JDBC drivers in the installation package:

  • DB2
  • Firebird
  • H2
  • HSQLDB
  • PostgreSQL
  • MariaDB
  • MSSQL
  • Oracle
  • SQLite

To use the available drivers, see the Adding and Updating Liquibase Drivers documentation. Also, check the page for the cases when you need different drivers. [PR#2031] [DAT-7438]
Note: Since Liquibase 4.6.0 provides driver jar files, the size of the installation package is bigger than the size of the installation package in earlier versions.

Liquibase Pro Changes

  • Quality checks have configurable severity and exit codes [DAT-8171]
  • The quality checks bulk-set command [DAT-8289]
  • New quality checks:
    • Static check: Warn when a table truncation is detected [DAT-7933]
    • Dynamic check: Warn when granting specific privileges [DAT-7972]
    • Static check: Warn when the GRANT WITH ADMIN OPTION statement is detected [DAT-7955]
    • Static check: Warn when the GRANT WITH GRANT OPTION statement is detected [DAT-7995]
  • The liquibase.checks-settings.conf file is unencoded in version 4.6.0 and later versions for easier inspection that allows you to resolve a merge conflict in source control. Liquibase backs up encoded files in the working directory, and you can still use previous versions by specifying the --checks-settings-file parameter in the CLI, as an environment variable, or as a property in the liquibase.properties file. [DAT-8473]
