You want the database structure or both ?
On windows there are nice tools like ibexpert
http://www.hksoftware.net/download/
Is very easy to dump the database into a script
Gonna try to help you with the cmd line tool isql if you need

Can dump to SQL from linux commandline?
Well the subject basically says it, I'm trying to dump a firebird SQL database into the source SQL, at least the inserts, I don't particularly need the creates. Any tips on how to do this? I've had no luck with ISQL so far.

Thanks much,

Brandon Low

Thumbs up
Here is one ideea : use
http://fbexport.sourceforge.net/

Quote:
What does it do?
With FBExport, one can easily export/import data from/to Firebird table into a text file (actually it's a binary file). I first tought that XML format would be the way to go, but size of exported file matters, so I used my own format which uses less space.

FBExport is a command-line tool, so you can easily use it inside batch scripts. Currently, Linux and Windows versions are available, but I hope it can be built with any compiler that can build IBPP library.

Why use it?
I was trying to copy data from one Firebird database to another via external tables. The whole import/export process was needed since there was no chance of getting access to both databases at the same time, so any of those data-pump utilities was out of the question. Thus, I came up with the idea to export data into text file, copy that file to other server, and import the data into other database.

SOLVED!

This program seems to do the trick _very_ nicely... I hope it helps others who are having similar issues!

FYI: the program as I've found it has some hard coded paths in it which may need to be changed...
