serverless-transmogrify v0.0.5

Transmogrify

Database migrations for AWS Lambda and RDS using Sequelize Migrations.

About

Allows you to easily create a lambda function inside your RDS VPC that will handle migrations for you.

The plugin will call the migration endpoint on deploy for you to run the migrations.

Migrations

The plugin assumes that migration files live in a migrations directory inside your project.

For details on using migrations please see the Sequelize Migration docs.

Deployment

Installation

yarn add serverless-transmogrify

Usage

Define a migration handler function.

Pass the function as an option to the standard serverless deploy command

sls deploy --stage dev --function up

The function will be invoked after the deployment.

Configuration

Define the Transmogrify handler

The plugin provides two built-in Migration Handlers:

• transmogrify.up
• transmogrify.down

These get mapped to the correct handler code at deploy time.

Required ENV variables:

• DATABASE_URL

It is strongly recommended that you make the migration endpoints private and add an api token to your configuration

Sample Handler Configuration

The following defines a function handler called up mounted at the path /up. The function handler is mounted into the same VPC and private subnet as the target RDS instance.

provider:
  name: aws

plugins:
  - serverless-transmogrify

up:
  handler: transmogrify.up
  timeout: 30
  environment:
    DATABASE_URL: postgres://root:password@domain.rds.amazonaws.com:5432/Database
  vpc:
    securityGroupIds:
      - Fn::ImportValue: RDS-Shared-PostgreSQL-SecurityGroup
    subnetIds:
      - Fn::ImportValue: VPC-PrivateDataSubnet1
      - Fn::ImportValue: VPC-PrivateDataSubnet2
      - Fn::ImportValue: VPC-PrivateDataSubnet3

Creating and Dropping Databases

Now at no extra charge!! Databases can be created and dropped using Transmogrify as well via the transmogrify.create and transmogrify.drop handlers.

Best option is to invoke locally.

sls invoke --function create --path params.js --stage dev

The params.js file defines the database name

{
  "name": "test"
}

Sanity Checking Your Database Connection

Connects via Sequelize and runs a noop check.

  check:
    handler: transmogrify.check
    timeout: 30
    environment:
      DATABASE_URL: ${self:custom.vars.database-url-${opt:stage}}
    vpc: ${self:custom.vpc}

Again, can be invoked locally:

sls invoke --function check  --stage dev
