SQLcl lb changeset labels and context not working properly?

ianm42

Using SQLcl 21.4, it appears that the 'context' argument for Liquibase Changesets is being ignored. Changesets with a 'context' specified are applied no matter what context string is supplied in the update or updatesql command, or if no context string is supplied.

Using 'labels' is a little better. If label A is specified in the command, Changesets with labels A are applied and Changesets with labels B are not applied. But if no label is supplied is specified in the command, all the Changesets are applied, A, B and no label.

Is this the expected functionality?

OK, here is a simple example. The changelog has two changesets, each with a different 'labels' attribute, TEST and RELEASE.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<databaseChangeLog

        xmlns="http://www.liquibase.org/xml/ns/dbchangelog"

        xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

xmlns:n0="http://www.oracle.com/xml/ns/dbchangelog-ext"

        xmlns:pro="http://www.liquibase.org/xml/ns/pro"

        xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.liquibase.org/xml/ns/dbchangelog http://www.liquibase.org/xml/ns/dbchangelog/dbchangelog-4.6.xsd

    http://www.liquibase.org/xml/ns/pro http://www.liquibase.org/xml/ns/pro/liquibase-pro-4.6.xsd "

  <changeSet author="Me" id="1" labels="RELEASE">

  <comment>Create table 1</comment>

    <createTable tableName="TABLE1">

      <column name="test_column" type="varchar2(30 char)">

        <constraints nullable="false"/>

</column>

    </createTable>

  </changeSet>

  <changeSet author="Me" id="2" labels="TEST">

  <comment>Create table 2</comment>

    <createTable tableName="TABLE2">

      <column name="test_column" type="varchar2(30 char)">

        <constraints nullable="false"/>

</column>

    </createTable>

  </changeSet>

</databaseChangeLog>

If I run the following command in SQLcl, table2 is created:

lb update -changelog labels_test_changelog.xml -label TEST

I then rollback the update and run the command:

lb update -changelog labels_test_changelog.xml -label RELEASE

Now table1 gets created. All is going well so far.

If I rollback and then run the command:

lb update -changelog labels_test_changelog.xml

Both tables are created. Is this correct?

Now, rollback again and edit the changelog file and replace the two 'labels' with 'context', still with RELEASE and TEST.

Run the command:

lb update -changelog labels_test_changelog.xml -context TEST

Both tables are created in the database. This must be wrong.

Is it something I am doing wrong?
