I’ve just released Sqitch v0.60. The main change is the implementation of the status command, which allows one to see the current deployment status of a database. An example from the updated tutorial:

> sqitch status
# On database flipr_test
# Change:   18d7aab59bd0c914a561dc324b1da5549605c376
# Name:     change_pass
# Deployed: 2012-07-07 13:23:42 +0200
# By:       theory
# 
Nothing to deploy (up-to-date)

If there are changes in the plan after the most recently deployed change, they would be listed like so:

> sqitch status
# On database flipr_test
# Change:   540359a3892d1476f9ca6ccf7d3f9993ac383b68
# Name:     delete_flip
# Tag:      @v1.0.0-dev2
# Deployed: 2012-07-06 19:31:14 +0200
# By:       theory
# 
Undeployed changes:
  * pgcrypto
  * insert_user
  * change_pass

You can also ask it to show the list of deployed changes and applied tags:

> sqitch status --show-tags --show-changes
# On database flipr_test
# Change:   18d7aab59bd0c914a561dc324b1da5549605c376
# Name:     change_pass
# Deployed: 2012-07-07 13:26:30 +0200
# By:       theory

The --date-format option allows one to display the dates in a variety of formats, inspired by the git log --date option:

> sqitch status --date-format long
# On database flipr_test
# Change:   18d7aab59bd0c914a561dc324b1da5549605c376
# Name:     change_pass
# Deployed: 7 juillet 2012 13:26:30 CEST
# By:       theory
# 
Nothing to deploy (up-to-date)

Want to give it a try? Install it with cpan D/DW/DWHEELER/App-Sqitch-0.60-TRIAL.tar.gz and follow along the tutorial.

Now I’m off to add the log command, which shows a history of all deploys and reverts.
