# apex-source-control # apex-source-control
Scripts for bringing Oracle Application Express applications into version control, any version control tool may be used. Introducing file-based version-control for Oracle Application Express apps!
Scripts are designed to work with Linux and OSX (Will not work on Windows).
* Designed to be used by teams who want to bring their experience in version-control and APEX development together.
* Any version-control tool can be used, not just git.
* Tested on Linux and OSX (Windows not supported)
These scripts were designed using [this paper] (http://www.rwijk.nl/AboutOracle/psdua.pdf) as reference. These scripts were designed using [this paper] (http://www.rwijk.nl/AboutOracle/psdua.pdf) as reference.
If you have questions about workflow or any other concepts you should look for answers there first. There's a lot of good information about directory structure and general developer workflow so it's definitely worth a read.
It should be noted that if you decide to read the paper we have changed the names/functions of the scripts slightly: file-to-apex=install_apex.sql; uninstall-apex=uninstall_apex.sql; and apex-to-file=apexupdate.sh (Except we don't auto-update using subversion in order to leave more user freedom)
