DB Morph

This tool allows a simple DB migration based on SQL and TS files as part of automated CI/CD activities. It also supports seeding database tables.

Syntax

dbmorph migrate|seed|make[:seed] [options]

• migrate runs all migrations that have not yet been applied for the current database. It will pull all migrations from the db/migrations directory
• seed runs all (or just the given) seeds. It will pull the seed information from the db/seeds directory.
• make creates an empty migration template. If the db/migrations directory does not exist, it is created. For each migration, an "up" and a "down" file is being generated. "Up" will be used for the migration, whereas "down" is used if the migration fails - in order to roll the changes back in a controlled manner.
• make:seed creates a new template for seeding data.

Seed Options

The seed command allows for one option:

dbmorph seed [name]

If name is not provided, all seeds will be run. Otherwise only the seed that matches the given name. This can also be a partial match.

Make Options

The make command accepts two options:

dbmorph make <name> [ts]|[sql]

The <name> is used to provide a unique human-readable name for the migration.

the ts / sql options determine which type of a migration is supposed to be created: if ts is provided, a template for a Typescript file will be created, otherwise an empty SQL file is provided.

make:seed Options

The make:seed command accepts one option:

dbmorph make:seed <name>

The <name> is used to provide a unique human-readable name for the seed.
