# migrate
__Database migrations written in Go. Use as [CLI](#cli-usage) or import as [library](#use-in-your-go-project).__
* Migrate reads migrations from [sources](#migration-sources)
and applies them in correct order to a [database](#databases).
* Drivers are "dumb", migrate glues everything together and makes sure the logic is bulletproof.
(Keeps the drivers lightweight, too.)
* Database drivers don't assume things or try to correct user input. When in doubt, fail.
## Databases
Database drivers run migrations. [Add a new database?](database/driver.go)
* [PostgreSQL](database/postgres)
* [Cassandra](database/cassandra) ([todo #164](https://github.com/mattes/migrate/issues/164))
* [SQLite](database/sqlite) ([todo #165](https://github.com/mattes/migrate/issues/165))
* [MySQL/ MariaDB](database/mysql) ([todo #166](https://github.com/mattes/migrate/issues/166))
* [Neo4j](database/neo4j) ([todo #167](https://github.com/mattes/migrate/issues/167))
* [Ql](database/ql) ([todo #168](https://github.com/mattes/migrate/issues/168))
* [MongoDB](database/mongodb) ([todo #169](https://github.com/mattes/migrate/issues/169))
* [CrateDB](database/crate) ([todo #170](https://github.com/mattes/migrate/issues/170))
* [Shell](database/shell) ([todo #171](https://github.com/mattes/migrate/issues/171))
* [Google Cloud Spanner](database/spanner) ([todo #172](https://github.com/mattes/migrate/issues/172))
## Migration Sources
Source drivers read migrations from local or remote sources. [Add a new source?](source/driver.go)
* [Filesystem](source/file) - read from fileystem (always included)
* [Go-Bindata](source/go-bindata) - read from embedded binary data ([jteeuwen/go-bindata](https://github.com/jteeuwen/go-bindata))
* [Github](source/github) - read from remote Github repositories
* [AWS S3](source/aws-s3) - read from Amazon Web Services S3 ([todo #162](https://github.com/mattes/migrate/issues/162))
* [Google Cloud Storage](source/google-cloud-storage) - read from Google Cloud Platform Storage ([todo #163](https://github.com/mattes/migrate/issues/163))
## CLI usage
* Simple wrapper around this library.
* Handles ctrl+c (SIGINT) gracefully.
* No config search paths, no config files, no magic ENV var injections.
__[CLI Documentation](cli)__
([brew todo #156](https://github.com/mattes/migrate/issues/156))
```
$ brew install migrate --with-postgres
$ migrate -database postgres://localhost:5432/database up 2
```
## Use in your Go project
* API is stable and frozen for this release (v3.x).
* Package migrate has no external dependencies.
* Only import the drivers you need.
(check [dependency_tree.txt](https://github.com/mattes/migrate/releases) for each driver)
* To help prevent database corruptions, it supports graceful stops via `GracefulStop chan bool`.
* Bring your own logger.
* Uses `io.Reader` streams internally for low memory overhead.
* Thread-safe and no goroutine leaks.
__[Go Documentation](https://godoc.org/github.com/mattes/migrate)__
```go
import (
"github.com/mattes/migrate/migrate"
_ "github.com/mattes/migrate/database/postgres"
_ "github.com/mattes/migrate/source/github"
)
func main() {
m, err := migrate.New(
"github://mattes:personal-access-token@mattes/migrate_test",
"postgres://localhost:5432/database?sslmode=enable")
m.Steps(2)
}
```
Want to use an existing database client?
```go
import (
"database/sql"
_ "github.com/lib/pq"
"github.com/mattes/migrate/migrate"
"github.com/mattes/migrate/database/postgres"
)
func main() {
db, err := sql.Open("postgres", "postgres://localhost:5432/database?sslmode=enable")
driver, err := postgres.WithInstance(db, &postgres.Config{})
m, err := migrate.NewWithDatabaseInstance(
"file:///migrations",
"postgres", driver)
m.Steps(2)
}
```
## Migration files
Each migration has an up and down migration. [Why?](FAQ.md#why-two-separate-files-up-and-down-for-a-migration)
```
1481574547_create_users_table.up.sql
1481574547_create_users_table.down.sql
```
