With that, it is possible to restore the full "instance" from a backup
made with mariadb-dump --dir
The patch implements executing DDL (tables, views, triggers) using
statements that are stored in .sql file, created by mariadb-dump
--dir .
Care is taken of creating triggers correctly after the data is loaded,
disabling foreign keys and unique key checks etc.
The files are loaded in descending order by datafile size -
to ensure better work distribution when running with --parallel option.
In addition to --dir option, following options are implemented for
partial restore
include-only options:
--database - import one or several databases
--table - import one or several tables
exclude options:
--ignore-database -. ignore one or several databases when importing
--ignore-table - to ignore one or several tables when importing
All options above are only valid together with --dir option,
and can be specified multiple times.
