in reply to Dancer2 database migrations
After a lot of searching and even questions in the dancer's chat, I decided to write my own extremely simple solution that can be used with Dancer2 easily.
My first Perl cpan module: DBIx::Schema::Migration.
To use it with Dancer2 update your config.yml with:
migrations: directory: db/migrations
Then create db/migrations directory and put the sql migrations files there. All conventions are described in module documentation.
Create migration script: migration.pl
use Dancer2; use Dancer2::Plugin::Database; use DBIx::Schema::Migration; my $dir = config->{migrations}->{directory}; # Instantinating Migration object. my $migration = DBIx::Schema::Migration->new( { dbh => database, dir => $dir, } ); # CLI logic. my ($action, $num) = @ARGV; SWITCH: for ($action) { if (/up/) { $migration->up($num); last SWITCH; } if (/down/) { $migration->down($num); last SWITCH; } if (/init/) { $migration->init(); last SWITCH; } }
That's all. You can use it via CLI:
perl migration.pl up perl migration.pl down perl migration.pl init
