How to import Database Schema to XML

I often get questions on how to import database schema into XML file for doing activities like Data Comaprison etc. I have written a small script to generate the database schema including the following
  • Column Details ( Name, data type ,length etc)
  • Primary Key
  • Foreign Key
  • Indexes

Sample Script

SELECT a.name TableName,
( SELECT
c.name ColumnName,type_name(c.xusertype) DataType,
CASE WHEN type_name(c.xusertype)='NUMERIC' THEN CAST(c.prec AS SMALLINT)
WHEN type_name(c.xusertype)='UNIQUEIDENTIFIER' THEN NULL
WHEN type_name(c.xusertype)='BIGINT' THEN
CASE WHEN colstat =1 THEN CAST(IDENT_SEED(a.name) AS SMALLINT)
END
ELSE CAST(c.prec AS SMALLINT)
END DataLength,
CASE WHEN type_name(c.xusertype)='NUMERIC' THEN c.scale
WHEN type_name(c.xusertype)='BIGINT' THEN
CASE WHEN colstat =1 THEN CAST( IDENT_INCR(a.name) AS INT)
END
ELSE NULL
END Scale,
CAST(c.isnullable AS BIT) As IsNullable,NULL AS DataDefault,NULL AS DefConstraintName,
CASE WHEN colstat=1 THEN CAST(1 AS BIT)
ELSE CAST(0 AS BIT)
END AS IsIdentColumn
FROM SYSColumns c
WHERE c.id = OBJECT_ID(a.name)
and a.id = c.id
AND C.CDEFAULT =0
FOR XML AUTO, TYPE
) columns,
(select 'UID' ColumnName,f.name PrimaryKeyName, f.type_desc PrimaryKeyType
from sys.indexes f
where f.object_id = a.id
AND f.NAME IS NOT NULL
AND f.Is_Primary_Key =1
AND OBJECT_ID > 97
FOR XML AUTO, TYPE
)PrimaryKey,
(Select
object_name(rkeyid) Parent_Table,object_name(fkeyid) Child_Table, object_name(constid) FKey_Name, c1.name FKey_Col,c2.name Ref_KeyCol
From
sys.sysforeignkeys s
Inner join sys.syscolumns c1
on ( s.fkeyid = c1.id And s.fkey = c1.colid )
Inner join syscolumns c2
on ( s.rkeyid = c2.id And s.rkey = c2.colid )
where s.fkeyid = a.id
FOR XML RAW,TYPE
) ForeignKey,
(select f.name IndexName ,DBO.fGetIndexCols (object_NAME(f.object_id), f.index_id ) IndexColumn,
f.type_desc IndexType
from sys.indexes f
where f.object_id = a.id
AND f.NAME IS NOT NULL
AND f.Is_Primary_Key =0
AND OBJECT_ID > 97
FOR XML AUTO, TYPE
) Indexes
from sysobjects a
where a.xtype ='u'
FOR XML PATH('Table'), ROOT('TableDetails')
