pg-migrate
pg-migrate is a tool which manages databases' schema & data with SQL scripts.
1. Use pg-migrate as a global command
npm install -g @tqt/pg-migrateYou need to have a migration folder structured as below. You can name it whatever you want however its 2 sub-folders up and down are required. Put your main scripts in the up folder and name them in the alphabetical order (the order you want it to run). In case you want to downgrade, you need to place their counterparts in the down folder with the same name.
- migration-folder
- up
- 001-add-sample-1.sql
- 002-add-sample-2.sql
- 003-add-sample-3.sql
- down
- 001-add-sample-1.sql
- 002-add-sample-2.sql
- 003-add-sample-3.sqlThen run the script with the up command
pg-migrate up --migration-folder your-migration-folder --host host-name --database database-name --port port --user user-name --password passwordFor example
pg-migrate up --migration-folder ./db-migration --host localhost --database sample --port 5432 --user postgres --password postgresAfter the command executes, a table named migration is created in your current database with all executed scripts.
| id | version | createdAt |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | 001-add-sample-1 | 1622278220790 |
| 1 | 002-add-sample-2 | 1622279735989 |
| 2 | 003-add-sample-3 | 1622279766950 |
In case you want to migrate to a specific version but not the latest one, run
pg-migrate up 002-add-sample-2 --migration-folder ./db-migration --host localhost --database sample --port 5432 --user postgres --password postgresTo downgrade to a specific version, run the script with the down command
pg-migrate down 002-add-sample-2 --migration-folder ./db-migration --host localhost --database sample --port 5432 --user postgres --password postgresInstead of using parameters, you can use environment variables. You also may use a connection string. Here is the list of all parameters:
| param | alternative environment variable | sample |
|---|---|---|
| --migration-folder | POSTGRES_MIGRATION_FOLDER | ./db-migration |
| --host | POSTGRES_HOST | localhost |
| --port | "003-add-sample-3" | 5432 |
| --database | POSTGRES_DATABASE | postgres |
| --user | POSTGRES_USER | user |
| --password | POSTGRES_PASSWORD | password |
| --ssl | POSTGRES_SSL | true |
| --connectionString | POSTGRES_CONNECTION_STRING | postgresql://dbuser:secretpassword@database.server.com:3211/mydb |
