nicday / turtle

A Go tool that makes SQL migrations as great as turtle migrations

Turtle

Sea turtles have migrating vast oceans for centuries and now you can be be power and grace of a turtle migration for your mySQL database.

Installation

go get github.com/nicday/turtle

Configuration

Turtle relies on your database connection details being present in your environment variables in order to preform the migrations. Turtle will try to autoload .env from the working directory, merging any variables found into the environment.

Please see .env.default for an example .env file.

The generate command generates a new set of migration files with your chosen migration name. Once the files have been generated you will need to populate them with your migration SQL.

turtle generate [name]

The up command applies all inactive migrations. Migrations that have already been applied are ignored.

turtle up

The down command reverts all active migrations. Migrations that are haven't been applied are ignroned.
