Dry run! (sort of)
We've added a new --dry flag to the CLI.
This means you can now see what queries your config file will run, to check the conditions are correct, it also gives you a table representation of your dataset to check it looks like what you expected.
e.g
🧠 forget-db :: 2 rows found to process.
🧠 forget-db :: Query run... select `users`.`id`, `users`.`email`, `users`.`password` from `users`
+----+-------------------------+------------------+
| id | email | password |
+----+-------------------------+------------------+
| 1 | [email protected] | 371817583255573 |
| 2 | [email protected] | 6011543368953199 |
+----+-------------------------+------------------+

What it doesn't do is
- Give you what the data will look like AFTER you run it
- Give you the update commands it will run
Warning - When doing a dry run, remember that it will output to your terminal, so if you are exposing sensitive data make sure you're taking the correct precautions!

This is primarily designed for you to check that your conditions all work as expected before running it on your data set.
You can use it similarly to forget-db forget ./config.yml --dry this will put it into dry run mode, you can see more information within the readme https://github.com/OwenMelbz/forget-db#dry-run
