Database syncer

The database syncer connects to an external database and syncs user data into Casdoor. A demo users table can be imported from the template XLSX.

Create a syncer

Go to Syncers and create a new syncer with the following. Save when done.

consejo

Fill at least ID and Name in the Casdoor column mapping. Other useful fields include createdTime, Password, and DisplayName.

Required fields

Field	Description
Organization	Organization to import users into.
Name	Syncer name.
Type	database.
Host, Port, User, Password	Source database connection.
Database type	MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQL Server, Oracle, or SQLite (Xorm-supported).
Base de datos	Source database name.
Table	Source user table name.
Columnas de la tabla	Column name (source), Column type (source), Casdoor Column (Casdoor user field).

Optional fields

Field	Description
Is hashed	If enabled, sync runs only when fields included in the hash change; other field-only changes do not trigger sync.
Is key	Marks the primary key used to match source and Casdoor users. At least one column must be key; if none is set, the first is used.
Avatar base URL	If set and source user.avatar does not start with http, Casdoor stores Avatar base URL + user.avatar.
Affiliation table	Table used to sync user affiliation. Int codes can be mapped to names; see getAffiliationMap() and syncer_util (e.g. score for int→string mapping).

Enable Is enable and save; the syncer will run. You can also trigger a sync with the Sync button.

Actualizar

With Table columns configured for key mapping, differences on the key between source and Casdoor trigger updates:

• Update in source table — changes sync to Casdoor.

• Update in Casdoor — changes sync back to source.

Añadir

When row counts differ, the syncer adds rows to the table with fewer rows, using the key to match:

• Add user in source table:

• Add user in Casdoor table:
