# gel migration edit

Edit migration file.

```cli-synopsis
gel migration edit [<options>]
```

Invokes `$EDITOR` on the last migration file, and then fixes migration id after editor exits. Usually should be used for migrations that haven't been applied yet.

## Options

The `migration edit` command runs on the database it is connected to. For specifying the connection target see [connection options](https://docs.geldata.com/reference/using/cli/gel_connopts.md#ref-cli-gel-connopts).

`--schema-dir=<schema-dir>`:
Directory where the schema files are located. Defaults to `./dbschema`.



`--no-check`:
Do not check migration within the database connection.



`--non-interactive`:
Fix migration id non-interactively, and don't run editor.
