pg-migrate

pg-migrate is a simple yet powerful migration framework for PostrgeSQL.

Configuration

There are 3 ways to configure pg-migrate:

1. .gpgm.ts
2. environment variables
3. command line

The order of configuration priority is command line > environment variables > .gpgm.ts, so command line flags always take priority.

.gpgm.ts

This file is compiled and executed at runtime. An example file:

export const db = {
  host: "localhost",
  port: 5432,
  user: "postgres",
  database: "postgres",
  migrationSchema: "public",
  migrationTable: "__migrations",
};

export const app = {
  migrationsFolder: "migrations/",
};

Environment Variables

DB_HOST
DB_DATABASE
DB_PORT

Migration Files

Migration files are pretty simple and can be created by running pg-migrate create. An example migration:

import { Migration, MigrationClient } from "../../../lib";

export default new Migration(1, [
  "CREATE TABLE test (id uuid not null primary key, value text)",
  async (client: MigrationClient) => {
    await client.query("SELECT 1 FROM test");
    return true;
  },
]);

Damp Runs

A damp run is the next step above a dry run. It actually runs the migration but rolls back the transaction. This allows you to be confident that the migrations will work in the case of a 2 part deploy (deploy code, migrate).
