👑 WIKI-TO...ME-NODE(1) — like, the manual page, bestie

User Contributed Perl Documentation energy, and yes the page is literally called WIKI-TO...ME-NODE(1) — the truncation is iconic, we don't question it, we just vibe. 💅

✨ NAME ✨

wiki-toolkit-rename-node — rename a node stored in a Wiki::Toolkit instance. That's it, that's the whole job, and it eats. 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

# Rename a node in a Wiki::Toolkit instance, updating internal links
#  and references if the formatter supports link re-writing.

wiki-toolkit-rename-node --type postgres
         --name mywiki \
         --user wiki  \
         --pass wiki \
         --host 'db.example.com' \
         --port 1234
         --oldname MyOldNodeName \
         --nemname FancyNewNodeName

okay so yes, the command is doing a little staircase moment, and yes, --nemname is right there in the original. We do not touch it. Verbatim is the whole point, no cap. 🙈

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So here's the tea. This little tool takes four mandatory arguments and four optional arguments, and then it goes and renames your node. If your formatter is the kind that supports link re-writing, it'll even update the internal links and references for you, which is honestly main character behaviour. ✨

💖 The mandatory ones (you cannot skip these, fr fr)

  • type — the database type. Bestie, it should be one of 'postgres', 'mysql' and 'sqlite'. Those are the options, periodt.
  • name — the database name. 🍓
  • oldname — the name of the node that's getting renamed. The before pic. 📸
  • newname — the new name for the node. The glow-up. 👑

💜 The optional ones (nice to have, not mandatory)

  • user — the user that connects to the database. Heads up: it must have permission to create and drop tables in the database. Not a suggestion, that's a requirement. 😭
  • pass — the user's database password. Keep it secret, keep it safe. 🤫
  • host — the hostname of the machine the database server is running on. Lowkey just omit this one for local databases. 🏠
  • port — the port number that the database server is expecting connections to. 🔌
