gel migration apply​

Once the migration scripts are in place the changes can be applied to the database by this command:

gel migration apply [options]

The tool will find all the unapplied migrations in dbschema/migrations/ directory and sequentially run them on the target instance.

Gel Cloud CI users and scripters

When scripting a migrate/migration apply for a Gel Cloud instance, do not use gel login to authenticate. Instead, you should generate a secret key in the Gel Cloud UI or by running gel cloud secretkey create and set the GEL_SECRET_KEY environment variable to your secret key. Once this variable is set to your secret key, logging in is no longer required.

The migration apply command runs on the database it is connected to. For specifying the connection target see connection options.

--quiet

Do not print any messages, only indicate success by exit status.

--schema-dir=schema-dir

Directory where the schema files are located. Defaults to ./dbschema.

--to-revision=to-revision

Upgrade to a specified revision.

Unique prefix of the revision can be specified instead of full revision name.

If this revision is applied, the command is no-op. The command ensures that this revision present, but it's not an error if more revisions are applied on top.

--dev-mode

Apply the current schema changes on top of the current migration history, without having created a new migration. This works the same way as gel watch but without starting a long-running watch task.
