miglite v0.8.0: ship migrations inside the binary
The last post about miglite covered v0.4.0 in June. In the three months since then, it reached v0.8.0 through four releases and 69 commits (v0.4.0..v0.8.0). The main problem I wanted to solve was carrying a migrations/ directory alongside the binary. A few flags that were accepted but did nothing also needed fixing.
miglite: raw SQL migrations for Go projects
Database migration tools usually pick one of two lanes. Some describe schema changes in their own DSL and generate SQL for you. Others take the SQL you already wrote, run it in order, and record what has been applied.
github.com/gookit/miglite stays in the second lane. It does not replace SQL, and the library does not pull database drivers into your dependency tree by default. It discovers migration files, parses UP/DOWN sections, runs SQL in a transaction, and records the migration status in the database.
