# Miflo

[![Release](https://img.shields.io/github/release/gavsidhu/miflo.svg)](https://github.com/gavsidhu/miflo/releases) [![Miflo CI/CD](https://github.com/gavsidhu/miflo/actions/workflows/ci-cd.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/gavsidhu/miflo/actions/workflows/ci-cd.yml) [![Go Report](https://goreportcard.com/badge/github.com/gavsidhu/miflo)](https://goreportcard.com/report/github.com/gavsidhu/miflo)

Miflo is a database schema migration tool designed to simplify database schema changes for SQLite, PostgreSQL, and libSQL databases.

## Motivation
I often use [Turso](https://turso.tech/) (built on top of [libSQL](https://github.com/tursodatabase/libsql)) as my database for personal project. I wanted a way to keep track of my database changes as I developed my projects but couldn't find a tool that specifically worked with Turso so I created Miflo. I also made it work with PostgreSQL and SQLite since I use those databases aswell.

## Installation

**Mac**

Install miflo on Mac by running the following command in your terminal:

```sh
curl -sSL https://github.com/gavsidhu/miflo/raw/main/scripts/install-mac.sh | bash
```

**Linux**

Install miflo on Mac by running the following command in your terminal:

```sh
curl -sSL https://github.com/gavsidhu/miflo/raw/main/scripts/install-linux.sh | bash
```

## Usage

### Connect Your Database

To connect your database using miflo, you need to set the DATABASE_URL in your .env file. This URL specifies the database type and its connection details. The format of the DATABASE_URL varies based on the type of database you are connecting to. Here's how you can set it up for each supported database:

#### SQLite

For SQLite, the DATABASE_URL is set using `sqlite:` followed by the path to your database file. Example:

```env
DATABASE_URL=sqlite:/path/to/your/databasefile.db
```

#### PostgreSQL

For connecting to a PostgreSQL database, the URL is formatted as `postgresql://username:password@host:port/database_name`. Replace the placeholders with your actual PostgreSQL database credentials. Example:

```env
DATABASE_URL=postgresql://user:password@localhost:5432/mydatabase
```

#### libSQL

For connecting to a libSQL database, miflo supports two protocols: HTTP and a custom libsql protocol. The appropriate protocol to use depends on your specific database setup.

##### Connecting to a Turso Database Instance

- If you are connecting to a Turso database instance, use the libsql protocol. The URL should be in the format `libsql://your_turso_database_url?authToken=your_auth_token`. Example:

```env
DATABASE_URL=libsql://your-db-instance.turso.io?authToken=yourActualAuthTokenHere
```

##### Using sqld

- When using sqld, the connection URL should use the HTTP protocol. The format will be something like `http://your_sqld_host:port`. Example:

```env
DATABASE_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8080
```

### Create a migration

Command: `miflo create [migration_file_name]`

- **Function**: The `create` command creates a new migration directory `[timestamp]_[migration_file_name]` in the migrations directory in the root of your project.
- **Migration Folder**: If a `migrations` folder doesn't exist at the root, miflo will prompt you to create one.
- **Genereated Files**: The command creates two SQL files in the new directory:
  - `up.sql` for applying the migration.
  - `down.sql` for reverting the migration.
- **Valid Migration Name**:
  - Migration names must adhere to a specific pattern. They should only contain letters (A-Z, a-z) and underscores (_).

Example:

```sh
miflo create add_users_table
```

### Apply migrations
Command: `miflo up`

- **Function** The `up` command applies all pending migrations. The migrations are applied in order of creation.
- **Execution**: miflo reads the `up.sql` files in each migration directory and executes the SQL statements contained within. These up.sql files define the changes to be made to the database schema.

```sh
miflo up
```

### Revert migrations
Command: `miflo revert`

- **Function**: The `revert` command is used to roll back applied migrations.
- **Revert Order**: Migrations are reverted in reverse order meaning the last applied migration is the first to be reverted.
- **Batch Operation**: This command uses batches. A batch is a group of migrations applied together during a single `miflo up` execution. `miflo revert` will only roll back the migrations of the last batch.
- **Execution**: miflo reads the `down.sql` files in each migration directory of the latest batch. These `down.sql` files contain SQL statements that undo the changes made by the corresponding `up.sql` files.

```sh
miflo revert
```

### List migrations
Command: `miflo list`

- **Function**: The `list` command lists all pending migrations.

```sh
miflo list
```

## Migrations

### Migration Files

When a new migration is created using the miflo create command, it generates two SQL files in a dedicated directory for that migration.

`up.sql`
- **Purpose**: The up.sql file is used for applying the migration. It contains SQL statements that modify the database schema, such as creating tables, adding columns, or other schema alterations.
- **Usage**: When you run the `miflo up` command, miflo executes the SQL statements in the `up.sql` files of each pending migration, in the order they were created. This process updates your database schema to the new desired state.
- **Content**: The content of an `up.sql` file typically includes `CREATE TABLE`, `ALTER TABLE`, `ADD COLUMN` statements, and other SQL commands that incrementally change the database structure.

`down.sql`
- **Purpose**: The down.sql file is used for reverting the migration. It contains SQL statements that undo the changes made by the up.sql file.
- **Usage**: When you run the `miflo revert` command, miflo executes the SQL statements in the `down.sql` files of the most recent batch of applied migrations, in reverse order. This process rolls back the latest changes made to your database schema.
- **Content**: The content of a `down.sql` file typically includes `DROP TABLE`, `DROP COLUMN`, and other SQL commands that reverse the changes made by the corresponding `up.sql`.

Example:
For a migration named `create_users_table`, the directory structure would be something like this:

```sh
/migrations
  /1704662056_create_users_table
    - up.sql
    - down.sql
```

### Migrations table

When you first use miflo to connect to your database, a table named `miflo_migrations` is automatically created. This table helps manage and track the state of database migrations.

**Table Columns**
- **id**: Serves as a unique identifier for each migration entry.
- **name**: Stores the name of the migration file. This is unique for each migration to prevent duplicate entries and to easily identify each migration.
- **batch**: Indicates the batch number in which the migration was applied. Migrations applied together in a single miflo up execution share the same batch number.
- **applied**: A boolean flag indicating whether the migration has been applied (true) or not (false).
- **applied_at**: Timestamp of when the migration was applied. It defaults to the current timestamp at the time of migration application.
