Hey @osalvador,
I used your software for a few days and wanted to mention two ideas I had, which could greatly improve the use case of the application. I would love to programm it myself, but I have no skills in developing with java and most other commen languages.
Creating a table when missing in the source DB:
If your running a replication for the first time it's quite anyoing getting the DDL from some DBMS and importing them manualy. Maybe its possible to run something like SHOW CREATE TABLE (mysql) and importing these informations via CREATE TABLE in the sink database. This feature could become even more handy if combined with the second one.
Bulk replication/migration:
I think the title says it all. Replicating multiple tables with a single config file. I could imagine a feature where the applications loops through a folder with a bunch of .sql files in it and executing them. In the config you could then just add a folder path for the files.
I know there was a similiar disscusion with the idea of overwriting the config, but maybe the folderpath and .sql file implementation could represent a new approach.
Just some ideas, maybe they can help you. Like I said I'm not really a developer, but if I can help and contribute in a diffrent way just hit me up!
Thanks for the great work!
