migrate CLI

Installation

Download pre-build binary (Windows, MacOS, or Linux)

$ curl -L https://github.com/golang-migrate/migrate/releases/download/$version/migrate.$platform-amd64.tar.gz | tar xvz

MacOS

$ brew install golang-migrate

Linux (*.deb package)

$ curl -L https://packagecloud.io/golang-migrate/migrate/gpgkey | apt-key add -
$ echo "deb https://packagecloud.io/golang-migrate/migrate/ubuntu/ xenial main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/migrate.list
$ apt-get update
$ apt-get install -y migrate

With Go toolchain

$ go get -tags 'postgres' -u -d github.com/golang-migrate/migrate/cmd/migrate

Notes:

Requires a version of Go that supports modules. e.g. Go 1.11+
This example builds the cli which will only work with postgres. In order to build the cli for use with other databases, replace the postgres build tag with the appropriate database tag(s) for the databases desired. The tags correspond to the names of the sub-packages underneath the database package.
Similarly to the database build tags, if you need to support other sources, use the appropriate build tag(s).
Support for build constraints will be removed in the future: https://github.com/golang-migrate/migrate/issues/60

Usage

$ migrate -help
Usage: migrate OPTIONS COMMAND [arg...]
       migrate [ -version | -help ]

Options:
  -source          Location of the migrations (driver://url)
  -path            Shorthand for -source=file://path
  -database        Run migrations against this database (driver://url)
  -prefetch N      Number of migrations to load in advance before executing (default 10)
  -lock-timeout N  Allow N seconds to acquire database lock (default 15)
  -verbose         Print verbose logging
  -version         Print version
  -help            Print usage

Commands:
  create [-ext E] [-dir D] [-seq] [-digits N] [-format] NAME
               Create a set of timestamped up/down migrations titled NAME, in directory D with extension E.
               Use -seq option to generate sequential up/down migrations with N digits.
               Use -format option to specify a Go time format string.
  goto V       Migrate to version V
  up [N]       Apply all or N up migrations
  down [N]     Apply all or N down migrations
  drop         Drop everyting inside database
  force V      Set version V but don't run migration (ignores dirty state)
  version      Print current migration version

So let's say you want to run the first two migrations

$ migrate -source file://path/to/migrations -database postgres://localhost:5432/database up 2

If your migrations are hosted on github

$ migrate -source github://mattes:personal-access-token@mattes/migrate_test \
    -database postgres://localhost:5432/database down 2

The CLI will gracefully stop at a safe point when SIGINT (ctrl+c) is received. Send SIGKILL for immediate halt.

Reading CLI arguments from somewhere else

ENV variables

$ migrate -database "$MY_MIGRATE_DATABASE"

JSON files

Check out https://stedolan.github.io/jq/

$ migrate -database "$(cat config.json | jq '.database')"

YAML files

$ migrate -database "$(cat config/database.yml | ruby -ryaml -e "print YAML.load(STDIN.read)['database']")"
$ migrate -database "$(cat config/database.yml | python -c 'import yaml,sys;print yaml.safe_load(sys.stdin)["database"]')"
```
