Migrations are managed with the golang-migrate/migrate CLI tool.
To run all the migrations:
migrate -source file:migrations -database "postgres://localhost:5432/discovery-database?sslmode=disable" up
To create a new migration:
migrate create -ext sql -dir migrations -seq <title>
This creates two empty files in /migrations
:
{version}_{title}.up.sql {version}_{title}.down.sql
The two migration files are used to migrate “up” to the specified version from the previous version, and to migrate “down” to the previous version. See golang-migrate/migrate/MIGRATIONS.md for details.
