DBeaver How to Save Export Data Script - export

DBeaver has excellent Import data/Export data tools, but is it possible to Save the export or import script rather than execute it immediately so that it can be executed at a later time?
I need to migrate a production database so I want to prepare all of the scripts beforehand and then execute them all when it's time to do the switch.

You can save your scripts from menu [SQL editor]->[Save SQL script].
Then in project panel you can create link on folder that contains your saved scripts or on script itself.
Also there is a Script Management guide on DBreaver Git wiki.

How to generate the DB script by query. (NOT GUI)

I tried to generate the script by query because I want create easily and same settings. I checked MSdoc but there is no method.
I use SSMS v17.6, SQLServer2016(SP2) on WindowsServer2012 R2 Standard.
By the GUI, DB right click=>Task=>generate scripts=>select database objects and set some settings.
I want to generate by query.
You can follow below steps to automate the creation of a database.
First export the database as a dapac using Export Data Tier Application
Install SQLPackage.exe in the environment where you are planning to carry out the deployment. You can download sqlpackage.exe download path . It will be used to automate the generation of scripts from DACPAC.
Once you have the DACPAC of the database, you can publish the same to any environment. The caveat is, Sqlpackage.exe generates incremental script, comparing against the target datatbase. If you want complete CREATE script, then you can point against any empty database or system database like master to generate incremental CREATE scripts(here it will be complete database script, as target is empty database). The generated script will be present in the output path (here, it is C:\temp)
Note: we are setting parameter (DropObjectsNotInSource to false), to avoid generation of drop objects of the target database, which are
missing in source DACPAC.
"<Path>\SqlPackage.exe"
/Action:script
/SourceFile:“<Path>\Database.dacpac”
/TargetDatabaseName:master
/TargetServerName:"localhost"
/OutputPath:C:\temp
/p:DropObjectsNotInSource:false
UPDATE
I see that, now there is a tool mssql-scripter(currently in preview) to carry out the same activity of Generate Scripts wizard of SQL Server Management Studio. You can see about the tool here: https://github.com/Microsoft/mssql-scripter

Bitbucket and Database Development

I have a Windows server with MS SQL Server running on it.
On the SQL Server developers have created stored procedures, views, tables, triggers.
On the Windows server developers created shell scripts.
I would like to start versioning the code described above in a BitBucket repository. I have a repository created in BitBucket.
How should the branches be organized in this repository? i.e. "SQL Server\Database\\ ...
"Windows Server\\shell_script" ...
Can I connect BitBucket to SQL Server and Windows Server and specify which code needs to be versioned?
Are both 1 and 2 options above possible?
I just need to version control the changes to the code and have the ability to mark under which project the code change was made.
I am new to BitBucket. I am using the web front end of it. I do not know how to configure command line access, so please try not to reference Bitbucket commands. Sorry if I sound confusing.
Please help.
I know this is an old question but anyway, in principle I'd recommend:
Put all the server shell scripts into one place and make that a git repo linked to your bitbucket repo
Add a server shell script to export what you want version controlled from the SQL db
The export from the SQL db should be to text files so they are easily 'diffable'
You might as well make the export to a sub-directory within the shell scripts repo so that everything is in one place and can't get out of sync
So you only have one branch, not a separate one for server shell scripts and db
Make sure people run the export script and then commit everything when they make a change
You ideally have a test server which means you'd want a way to push changes from the repo into the SQL db. I presume you can do this with a script but deleting the server setup and re-creating it from the text files.
So basically, you can't connect an SQL db to bitbucket directly. You need scripts to read and write to the db from a repo.

Script to import text files to SQL Server

I have around 1000 text files that need to be imported as tables to MS SQL Server. Usually I use Import and Export Data Tool, but doing that a 1000 times would be insufficient.
Is there a way to automate the process and import the 1000 text files and create the tables in SQL without doing that manually? Can that be achieved using a script?
Use SSIS. Start with your export package saved to the file system. In SSDT create a new SSIS project. Delete the Package.dtsx file created with the project. Right click the Packages "folder" and select Add Existing Package, navigate to the package you saved and select it. Now you can start automating the loads.

SQL Server - Command Line utility for exporting and importing of entire database

I am looking for a command line utility to export and import an entire SQL Server database. I am looking to automate the process of moving data from source database to destination database given the credentials.
This would be similar to exp and imp command for Oracle.
I have already looked at Bcp and SS import export wizard.
Would someone point to any such utility?
I haven't found one if it exists. I typically script up a power shell function like this one to serve the purpose.
export with power shell
You can then call the script from the command prompt and even add parameters to export by table, database etc.

Export MSSQL DB, Import in shared environment

We are in the process of trying to migrate from a VPS to a shared environment. The VPS is running Studio Express 2005 so is therefore limited quite a lot in functionality in terms of exporting.
I have managed to export a database in .bak format and upload (Restore) it to the shared environment.
However, here comes the problem, the schema has come with the database. Causing problems when connecting via asp.
The table name structure is as follows [SCHEMA].[TABLE_NAME].
The shared environment does not allow for changing of schema or many advanced features. (Its running myLittleAdmin).
So I guess the schema changes would have to be done on the database, then exported then imported.
Ps. I'm new to MSSQL and more experienced in MYSQL.
Ok So I have found a solution to this.
Export the schema from Studio Express using Right Click > Tools > Generate Script.
Execute this script on the server.
Open this file, find and replace the old user with your new one.
Use a tool such as this one http://sqldumper.ruizata.com/ (SQL Dumper) to export the DB to .SQL.
Find and replace on this file, again for the old user to the new.
Copy this SQL and execute it on the server.
Job done!
