🚀 Quick Start Guide - Get started in under 5 minutes!

🚀 Installation

npm install migrilla

⚙️ Usage

Commands

migrilla up      # Apply all pending migrations
migrilla down    # Rollback the last applied migration
migrilla status  # Show migration status
migrilla help    # Show help message

Environment Variables

Configure database connection using environment variables:

MIGRILLA_DB_HOST=localhost           # Database host (default: localhost)
MIGRILLA_DB_PORT=5432               # Database port (default: 5432)
MIGRILLA_DB_NAME=myapp              # Database name (default: postgres)
MIGRILLA_DB_USER=postgres           # Database user (default: postgres)
MIGRILLA_DB_PASSWORD=mypassword     # Database password
MIGRILLA_DATABASE_URL=postgres://user:pass@host:port/db  # Full connection string
MIGRILLA_DB_SSL=true                # Use SSL connection (default: false)

💾 How It Works

✅ Reads SQL files from migrations/ directory
✅ Tracks applied migrations in migrilla_state table
✅ Atomic execution - each migration runs in a transaction
✅ Provides beautiful console output
✅ Handles errors gracefully

🦍 Migration Files

Create migration files in the migrations/ directory:

File Naming Pattern

001_migration_name_up.sql    # Apply migration
001_migration_name_down.sql  # Rollback migration

Example Structure

migrations/
├── 001_add_users_table_up.sql
├── 001_add_users_table_down.sql
├── 002_add_orders_table_up.sql
├── 002_add_orders_table_down.sql
└── 003_add_indexes_up.sql
└── 003_add_indexes_down.sql

📚 Examples

Example Migration Files

001_add_users_table_up.sql

CREATE TABLE users (
  id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
  email VARCHAR(255) UNIQUE NOT NULL,
  name VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
  created_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
);

001_add_users_table_down.sql

DROP TABLE IF EXISTS users;

002_add_orders_table_up.sql

CREATE TABLE orders (
  id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
  user_id INTEGER REFERENCES users(id),
  amount DECIMAL(10,2) NOT NULL,
  status VARCHAR(50) DEFAULT 'pending',
  created_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
);

002_add_orders_table_down.sql

DROP TABLE IF EXISTS orders;

Running Migrations

# Apply all pending migrations
migrilla up

# Check migration status
migrilla status

# Rollback last migration
migrilla down

Example Output

$ migrilla up
✅ Migrilla initialized successfully
🔄 Applying migration: 001_add_users_table
✅ Executed: 001_add_users_table
🔄 Applying migration: 002_add_orders_table
✅ Executed: 002_add_orders_table
🎉 All migrations applied successfully!

$ migrilla status

📊 Migration Status:
==================
✅ Applied | 001_add_users_table
✅ Applied | 002_add_orders_table
⏳ Pending | 003_add_indexes

📈 Summary:
Total migrations: 3
Applied: 2
Pending: 1

$ migrilla down
✅ Migrilla initialized successfully
🔄 Rolling back migration: 002_add_orders_table
✅ Executed: 002_add_orders_table
✅ Migration rolled back successfully!

🔧 Programmatic Usage

You can also use Migrilla programmatically with functional approach:

const createMigrilla = require('migrilla');

const migrilla = createMigrilla({
  host: 'localhost',
  port: 5432,
  database: 'myapp',
  user: 'postgres',
  password: 'password'
});

// Apply migrations
await migrilla.up();

// Rollback last migration
await migrilla.down();

// Get status
await migrilla.status();

// Close connection
await migrilla.close();

Why Functions Instead of Classes?

• Immutable Configuration: Configuration is closed over by functions
• No State Mutations: More predictable and testable code
• Better Performance: Reduced object instantiation overhead
• Functional Style: Clean separation of concerns

Manual Transaction Control

You can also execute custom operations within transactions:

// Transaction API with automatic management
await migrilla.executeInTransaction(async (client) => {
  await client.query('INSERT INTO users (name) VALUES ($1)', ['John']);
  await client.query('UPDATE users SET active = true WHERE name = $1', ['John']);
});

🛠️ Configuration Options

const migrilla = new Migrilla({
  // Database connection options (pg Pool options)
  host: 'localhost',
  port: 5432,
  database: 'myapp',
  user: 'postgres',
  password: 'password',
  
  // Migrilla specific options
  migrationsDir: './migrations',    // Directory with migration files
  stateTable: 'migrilla_state'      // Table name for tracking migrations
});

🔒 Transaction Safety

Migrilla ensures atomic execution of migrations:

• Each migration runs in a transaction
• If any part of the migration fails, everything is rolled back
• Migration state is updated only after successful execution
• No partial migrations or inconsistent state

This means your database will always be in a consistent state, even if a migration fails halfway through.
