pgm

ISC License NPM Version code style: prettier Blazing Fast

Simple command-line migration tool for PostgreSQL

Installation

npm i pgm             # local, usage: npx pgm [params]
# or
npm i pgm --save-dev  # devDependencies, usage: npx pgm [params]
# or
npm i pgm --global    # global, usage: pgm [params]

Requirements

How it works

pgm only tracks and applies .sql files. It does not generate any sql.

Use another tool like Adminer or DBeaver to model the schema and generate sql to place inside migration files.

Quick example

pgm make              # create migration 001.sql
pgm up                # migrate
pgm make another one  # create migration 002-another-one.sql
pgm stat              # show current status

----------------------------
Applied migrations: 1
Pending migrations: 1

Applied: 001.sql
Pending: 002-another-one.sql
----------------------------

CLI

Usage: pgm [options] [command]

Simple command-line migration tool for PostgreSQL

Options:
  -V, --version          output the version number
  -c, --config <file>    specify json configuration file
  -C, --no-config        don't load pgm.json configuration
  -d, --dotenv <file>    specify dotenv configuration file
  -D, --no-dotenv        don't load .env configuration
  -q, --quiet            disable output messages
  -h, --help             output usage information

Commands:
  make|create [name...]  create a migration with optional name
  stat|status            print current migration status
  up|migrate [seq]       apply all, or up to [seq] pending migrations

Examples:
  $ pgm make
  $ pgm make create users table
  $ pgm stat
  $ pgm up 5    # apply up to, and including 005.sql
  $ pgm up      # apply all pending

Configuration

If no CLI options are specified, pgm will try to load pgm.json if it exists. Otherwise .env will be loaded using dotenv. To explicitly load a configuration, use --config custom.json or --dotenv .custom.env.

Settings are then read from json configuration or process.env, depending on the set options.

Schema and table can be specified using "migrationsTable": "custom_schema.custom_table".

Tip: To skip loading both pgm.json and .env, and only use process.env variables, specify both --no-config --no-dotenv CLI options.

pgm.json example

{
  "host": "localhost",
  "port": "5432",
  "database": "postgres",
  "user": "postgres",
  "password": "",
  "migrationsDirectory": "migrations",
  "migrationsTable": "public.migrations"
}

Tip: To include double quotes, escape them with backslashes "migrationsTable": "\"public\".\"migrations\""

.env example

POSTGRES_HOST=localhost
POSTGRES_PORT=5432
POSTGRES_DB=postgres
POSTGRES_USER=postgres
POSTGRES_PASSWORD=
PGM_MIGRATIONS_DIRECTORY=migrations
PGM_MIGRATIONS_TABLE=public.migrations

Tip: To include double quotes, wrap them in single quotes: PGM_MIGRATIONS_TABLE='"public"."migrations"'

Rules

  • There are no down migrations
  • Two migrations cannot start with the same sequence number
  • Do not modify or rename migrations after they have been applied
  • All pending migrations are applied in a transaction
