}
----Purpose
The schema-export command uses Hibernate’s SchemaExport tool to generate Data Definition Language (DDL) or export the schema. You need to add it to the build classpath for this command to work properly.

$ ./gradlew -Dgrails.env=prod runCommand -Pargs="schema-export stdout"Description
Usage:
$ ./gradlew -Dgrails.env=<<environment>> runCommand -Pargs="schema-export <<action>> ['stdout'] <<filename>> [--datasource]"Arguments:
-
environment- The environment containing the database configuration to use (e.g., dev, prod). -
action- Can be either 'generate' or 'export', with the default being 'generate'. Specifying 'export' will execute the script against the specified environment’s database instead of just generating the DDL file. -

filename- Specifies the name of the file to write the DDL to, with the default being 'ddl.sql' in the project’s 'build' directory. -
datasource- TheDataSourcename suffix; defaults to the defaultDataSourceif not specified.
