Golang Migrate - Database Migration Tool for Go
A powerful database migration tool for Go, providing a CLI and library to manage your schema changes reliably and efficiently across various databases.
Project Introduction
Summary
golang-migrate/migrate is a robust and feature-rich database migration tool written in Go. It offers both a command-line interface and a Go library, making it flexible for various workflows from scripting to application-integrated migrations. It supports numerous database systems and provides a reliable way to evolve your database schema alongside your application development.
Problem Solved
Manually managing database schema changes across different environments (development, staging, production) is often complex, error-prone, and difficult to track. This project provides a structured, automated way to handle these changes.
Core Features
Multiple Database Support
Supports a wide range of databases including PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, and more, via dedicated drivers.
CLI Interface
A command-line interface for easily managing migrations outside of your application code.
Go Library
Integrate migration management directly into your Go applications.
SQL & Go Migrations
Define schema changes using plain SQL or custom Go migration files.
Version Control for Schema
Track database schema versions and apply migrations incrementally.
Up/Down Migrations
Define both 'up' (apply) and 'down' (revert) migration steps.
Tech Stack
使用场景
golang-migrate/migrate is ideal for scenarios requiring version-controlled and automated database schema changes.
Managing Schema Changes in Application Deployments
Details
Define schema changes for new features as migration files and apply them automatically during application deployment.
User Value
Ensures that the database schema is always in sync with the application code across all environments.
Versioning Database Schema
Details
Include migration scripts alongside application code in version control systems like Git.
User Value
Provides a clear history of all database schema changes and allows easy tracking and auditing.
Performing Database Rollbacks
Details
If a deployment fails or introduces issues, quickly revert the database schema to a previous stable state using 'down' migrations.
