[Bug 801691] Re: mysqldump additional-options behavior discrepancy

 

Fixing additional-options is difficult now, since it has been a comma
separated list for a long time before this bug was opened.  In holland
1.1+ option aliases in config files are supported so we can potentially
fix this there while maintaining compatibility by providing a separate
option name.

Title:
  mysqldump additional-options behavior discrepancy

Status in Holland Backup Framework:
  In Progress
Status in holland-backup 1.0 series:
  New
Status in holland-backup 1.1 series:
  New

Bug description:
  The mysqldump plugin expects the 'additional-options' setting to
  provide a comma separated list.   However the configspec currently has
  a comment that notes this should be provided "exactly as on the
  command line".  This causes multiple options to be misinterpretted
  (and mysqldump will fail) and is confusing.   The
  comment/documentation at least needs to be clear on the format
  required here and possibly the implementation updated.

  Example:

  additional-options = --no-data, --routines # OK
  additional-options = --no-data --routines # misinterpreted as mysqldump "--no-data --routines"
