README

MigrateSpecific is a Laravel framework CLI extension command that helps you easily perform database migrations of specific migration files.

Requirement

laravel/framework v5.7 or later.

Installation

Using composer to install, run this command in your project root directory:

composer require caloskao/migrate-specific

Now, run php artisan , you can see migrate:specific in the migrate section:

 migrate
  migrate:fresh        Drop all tables and re-run all migrations
  migrate:install      Create the migration repository
  migrate:refresh      Reset and re-run all migrations
  migrate:rollback     Rollback the last database migration
  migrate:specific     Migrate, refresh, reset or rollback for specific migration files.
  migrate:status       Show the status of each migration

Upgrade from version 1.x

In version 1.x, you may have already registered the command at app / Console / Kernel.php:

protected $commands = [
    \CalosKao\MigrateSpecific::class
];

MigrateSpecific uses laravel package discovery to automatically load commands after version 2.0, so you don't need to manually register the commands, but if you have manual registration, you may encounter a class not found exception when you run the application.

To fix this, just remove the class register.

protected $commands = [
    \CalosKao\MigrateSpecific::class // remove this line.
];

Usage

You can run php artisan help migrate:specific to check command usage:

Examples

Migrate single file or directory:

php artisan migrate:specific <path>

Migrate mutiple migrations on different paths:

php artisan migrate:specific <path 1> <path 2> <path 3> ...

Output is like below:

The following migration files will be migrated:
  2014_10_12_000000_create_users_table.php
  2018_07_31_174401_create_jobs_table.php
  2018_07_31_185911_create_failed_jobs_table.php

 Is this correct? (yes/no) [no]:
 > yes

Migrating: 2014_10_12_000000_create_users_table
Migrated:  2014_10_12_000000_create_users_table
Migrating: 2018_07_31_174401_create_jobs_table
Migrated:  2018_07_31_174401_create_jobs_table
Migrating: 2018_07_31_185911_create_failed_jobs_table
Migrated:  2018_07_31_185911_create_failed_jobs_table

Migrate mode

Use option -m or --mode to run migrate:refresh or migrate:rollback for specific migrations.

# Rollback mode
php artisan migrate:specific -m rollback <path>

# Refresh mode
php artisan migrate:specific -m refresh <path>

Keep batch number in refresh mode

Use option -k or --keep-batch to keep migration batch.

Before migrate:

php artisan migrate:specific -m refresh -k database/migrations/2019_02_14_011711_create_password_resets_table.php

Run php artisan migrate:status after migrate, you can see the migration 2019_02_14_011711_create_password_resets_table batch number will not be changed.

Skip foreign key checks

If your pattern has foreign key constraints, sometimes you might get errors, for example on MySQL or MariaDB:

Rolling back: 2019_02_14_011711_create_users_table
SQLSTATE[23000]: Integrity constraint violation: 1451 Cannot delete or update a parent row: a foreign key constraint fails (SQL: drop table `users`)

Use option -f of --skip-foreign-key-checks to execute database statement SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=0 before migrate.

Note: A good practice is to rollback related foreign key migration at the same time, otherwise you may still get other errors, such as SQL Error 1091.

Rolling back: 2019_02_14_011711_create_users_table
SQLSTATE[42000]: Syntax error or access violation: 1091 Can't DROP FOREIGN KEY `fk_projects_users_1`; check that it exists (SQL: alter table `reports` drop foreign key `fk_projects_users_1`)

Skip confirmation

Sometimes we need to perform a database migration many times, or we need to deploy it into an automated process. At this time, we can use the option -y to directly perform database migration without confirmation.

php artisan migrate:specific -y <path>

Note:

• If you call the option -n or -q, MigrateSpecific will be automatically skip confirmation.
• If you are not working in the above situations, we recommend that you do not perform a database migration in non-interactive mode to avoid accidental data loss.
