    I'm hoping for something similar to SqlTreeo - but more customisable..

    Thank you everyone for the suggestions and votes for this over the years.

    I’d like to surface up a workaround for the “linking” problem which is mentioned in the comments. For the use case of easing pains around environment setup with a large number of databases, we have had customers find success using code based off Alessandro Alpi’s blog post: https://alessandroalpi.blog/2016/06/28/automatically-link-databases-to-red-gate-sql-source-control/

    I do understand that this is a broader issue and hear that many of you also want command line or API support for the product in general.

    If there are specific scenarios or workflows that would be useful to automate for you, this feedback is also very useful, and if you have details on the type of VCS you use and the workflow (such as a branching model) that it would fit in to, that would be very helpful for us to hear as well.

    Hi Stephanie, the building of the local databases isn't really a problem - I'm already looking at the SQL Compare SDK to write a custom MSBuild task to do it - the main thing is linking the databases on the local machine back to source control once they are built. One of our platforms has 40 databases, and linking to them all manually after building a new dev machine would be quite time consuming.
