#Setting Up Migrations

The TypeRocket migration system requires enabling WordPress command support to TypeRocket Galaxy. Once you enable WordPress commands you will see a new make command make:migration

#Logging and Storing Migrations

TypeRocket migrations are logged and stored in the file system under the sql folder. TypeRocket goes about migrations this way because WordPress does not have a standard migrations system. Keep in mind that if you have multiple servers architecture only one of them should run migrations because TypeRocket uses a file system to log migrations.

#Make Migration

To make a migration run the make:migration Galaxy command with a "name" for that migration.

php galaxy make:migration add_blocks_table

Then, in the migration file add the SQL for your migration. Under the >>> Up >>> section add the SQL for migrating up or forward. Under the >>> Down >>> section add the SQL for migrating down or backward.

Anywhere you add {

prefix

Pro Only Feature

} the migration system will replace {

Pro Only Feature

prefix

Pro Only Feature

} with your WordPpess table prefix (the default is wp_).

-- Description: For reusable page builder components
-- >>> Up >>>
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `{
Pro Only Feature
prefix
Pro Only Feature
}blocks` (
`id` int(11) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`title` varchar(255) COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci NOT NULL,
`blocks` longtext COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci DEFAULT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8mb4;
-- >>> Down >>>
DROP TABLE `{
Pro Only Feature
prefix
Pro Only Feature
}blocks`;

#Migrate Up

To migrate "up" and run all migrations that have not yet been run use the command migrate up.

php galaxy migrate up

You can also specify how many migrations you would like to run. For example, to run just one migration you could do the following:

php galaxy migrate up 1

#Migrate Down

To migrate "down" and run all migrations that have already been run use the command migrate down.

php galaxy migrate down

You can also specify how many migrations you would like to run. For example, to run just three migrations you could do the following:

php galaxy migrate down 3
