Add one of the below scripts to the package.json based on your usage (with TypeScript ESM support):

  "scripts": {
    "knex": "NODE_OPTIONS='--experimental-vm-modules --loader ts-node/esm' dotenv knex",
    "knex:sqlmigration": "NODE_OPTIONS='--experimental-vm-modules --loader ts-node/esm' sqlmigration"
  }
}

Alternative 1: Generate Files

$ npm run knex:sqlmigration add-user-table

Alternative 2: Export from Migration File

• Create knex migration file.
• Create SQL files.
• Export functions of this library from migration file.

$ npm run knex migrate:make add-user-table

/db/migrations/20180516163212_add-user-table.js

import getMigrators from "knex-migrate-sql-file";

export const { up, down } = getMigrators();

/db/migrations/20180516163212_add-user-table.up.sql

CREATE TABLE "user" (...);

/db/migrations/20180516163212_add-user-table.down.sql

DROP TABLE "user";

Alternative 3: Use Functions

• Create knex migration file.
• Create SQL files.
• Use functions of this library in the migration file.

$ npm run knex migrate:make add-user-table

/db/migrations/20180516163212_add-user-table.js

import { upSQL, downSQL } from "knex-migrate-sql-file";
 
export async function up(knex: Knex): Promise<void> {
  await upSQL(knex);
}

export async function down(knex: Knex): Promise<void> {
  await downSQL(knex);
}

/db/migrations/20180516163212_add-user-table.up.sql

CREATE TABLE "user" (...);

/db/migrations/20180516163212_add-user-table.down.sql
