12.4.13. dropddl.js Filter

Note

Note that this filter is only intended for use with MySQL<>MySQL replication and will not have any benefit at this time for heterogeneous replication.

There may be occasions where you do not require specific DDL statements to be replicated. For example, you may NOT want to allow TRIGGERS or VIEWS to be replicated, but you do want TABLES, INDEXES, FUNCTIONS and PROCEDURES. The dropddl filter is intended for this purpose.

The dropddl filter allows you to configure which, if any, ddl statements to drop from THL and not be replicated.
