Commands

Basic Usage

The basic usage is:

vendor/bin/migrate <COMMAND> --path=<scripts> uri://connection

The --path specify where the base.sql and migrate scripts are located. If you omitted the --path it will assume the current directory. You can also set the MIGRATE_PATH environment variable with the base path

The uri://connection is the uri that represents the connection to the database. You can see here to know more about the connection string.

You can omit the uri parameter if you define it in the MIGRATE_CONNECTION environment variable and the parameter path with MIGRATE_PATH environment variable

export MIGRATE_CONNECTION=sqlite:///path/to/my.db
export MIGRATE_PATH=/path/to/migrate_files

Command: create

Create a empty directory structure with base.sql and migrations/up and migrations/down for migrations. This is useful for create from scratch a migration scheme.

Ex.

migrate create /path/to/sql

Command: install

If you already have a database but it is not controlled by the migration system you can use this method for install the required tables for migration.

migrate install mysql://server/database

Command: update

Will apply all necessary migrations to keep your database updated.

migrate update mysql://server/database

Update command can choose if up or down your database depending on your current database version. You can also specify a version:

migrate update --up-to=34

Command: reset

Creates/replace a database with the "base.sql" and apply ALL migrations

migrate reset            # reset the database and apply all migrations scripts.
migrate reset --up-to=5  # reset the database and apply the migration from the 
                         # start up to the version 5.
migrate reset --yes      # reset the database without ask anything. Be careful!!

Note on reset: You can disable the reset command by setting the environment variable MIGRATE_DISABLE_RESET to true:

export MIGRATE_DISABLE_RESET=true
