defmodule Ecto.Migration do
@moduledoc """
Migrations are used to modify your database schema over time.
This module provides many helpers for migrating the database,
allowing developers to use Elixir to alter their storage in
a way that is database independent.
Migrations typically provide two operations: `up` and `down`,
allowing us to migrate the database forward or roll it back
in case of errors.
In order to manage migrations, Ecto creates a table called
`schema_migrations` in the database, which stores all migrations
that have already been executed. You can configure the name of
this table with the `:migration_source` configuration option.
You can configure a different database for the table that
manages your migrations by setting the `:migration_repo`
configuration option to a different repository.
Ecto also locks the `schema_migrations` table when running
migrations, guaranteeing two different servers cannot run the same
migration at the same time.
## Creating your first migration
Migrations are defined inside the "priv/REPO/migrations" where REPO
is the last part of the repository name in underscore. For example,
migrations for `MyApp.Repo` would be found in "priv/repo/migrations".
For `MyApp.CustomRepo`, it would be found in "priv/custom_repo/migrations".
Each file in the migrations directory has the following structure:
```text
NUMBER_NAME.exs
```
The NUMBER is a unique number that identifies the migration. It is
usually the timestamp of when the migration was created. The NAME
must also be unique and it quickly identifies what the migration
does. For example, if you need to track the "weather" in your system,
you can start a new file at "priv/repo/migrations/20190417140000_add_weather_table.exs"
that will have the following contents:
defmodule MyRepo.Migrations.AddWeatherTable do
use Ecto.Migration
def up do
create table("weather") do
add :city, :string, size: 40
add :temp_lo, :integer
add :temp_hi, :integer
add :prcp, :float
timestamps()
end
end
def down do
drop table("weather")
end
end
The `up/0` function is responsible to migrate your database forward.
the `down/0` function is executed whenever you want to rollback.
The `down/0` function must always do the opposite of `up/0`.
Inside those functions, we invoke the API defined in this module,
you will find conveniences for managing tables, indexes, columns,
references, as well as running custom SQL commands.
To run a migration, we generally use Mix tasks. For example, you can
run the migration above by going to the root of your project and
typing:
$ mix ecto.migrate
You can also roll it back by calling:
$ mix ecto.rollback --step 1
Note rollback requires us to say how much we want to rollback.
On the other hand, `mix ecto.migrate` will always run all pending
migrations.
In practice, we don't create migration files by hand either, we
typically use `mix ecto.gen.migration` to generate the file with
the proper timestamp and then we just fill in its contents:
$ mix ecto.gen.migration add_weather_table
## Mix tasks
As seen above, Ecto provides many Mix tasks to help developers work
with migrations. We summarize them below:
* `mix ecto.gen.migration` - generates a
migration that the user can fill in with particular commands
* `mix ecto.migrate` - migrates a repository
* `mix ecto.migrations` - shows all migrations and their status
* `mix ecto.rollback` - rolls back a particular migration
Run `mix help COMMAND` for more information on a particular command.
For a lower level API for running migrations, see `Ecto.Migrator`.
## Change
Having to write both `up/0` and `down/0` functions for every
migration is tedious and error prone. For this reason, Ecto allows
you to defined a `change/0` callback with all of the code you want
to execute when migrating and Ecto will automatically figure out
the `down/0` for you. For example, the migration above can be
written as:
defmodule MyRepo.Migrations.AddWeatherTable do
use Ecto.Migration
def change do
create table("weather") do
add :city, :string, size: 40
add :temp_lo, :integer
add :temp_hi, :integer
add :prcp, :float
timestamps()
end
end
end
However, note that not all commands are reversible. Trying to rollback
a non-reversible command will raise an `Ecto.MigrationError`.
A notable command in this regard is `execute/2`, which is reversible in
`change/0` by accepting a pair of plain SQL strings. The first is run on
forward migrations (`up/0`) and the second when rolling back (`down/0`).
If `up/0` and `down/0` are implemented in a migration, they take precedence,
and `change/0` isn't invoked.
## Field Types
The Ecto primitive types are mapped to the appropriate database
type by the various database adapters. For example, `:string` is
converted to `:varchar`, `:binary` to `:bytea` or `:blob`, and so on.
In particular, note that:
* the `:string` type in migrations by default has a limit of 255 characters.
If you need more or less characters, pass the `:size` option, such
as `add :field, :string, size: 10`. If you don't want to impose a limit,
most databases support a `:text` type or similar
* the `:binary` type in migrations by default has no size limit. If you want
to impose a limit, pass the `:size` option accordingly. In MySQL, passing
the size option changes the underlying field from "blob" to "varbinary"
Any other type will be given as is to the database. For example, you
can use `:text`, `:char`, or `:varchar` as types. Types that have spaces
in their names can be wrapped in double quotes, such as `:"int unsigned"`,
`:"time without time zone"`, etc.
## Executing and flushing
Instructions inside of migrations are not executed immediately. Instead
they are performed after the relevant `up`, `change`, or `down` callback
terminates.
However, in some situations you may want to guarantee that all of the
previous steps have been executed before continuing. This is useful when
you need to apply a set of changes to the table before continuing with the
migration. This can be done with `flush/0`:
def up do
...
flush()
...
end
However `flush/0` will raise if it would be called from `change` function when doing a rollback.
To avoid that we recommend to use `execute/2` with anonymous functions instead.
For more information and example usage please take a look at `execute/2` function.
## Comments
Migrations where you create or alter a table support specifying table
and column comments. The same can be done when creating constraints
and indexes. Not all databases support this feature.
def up do
create index("posts", [:name], comment: "Index Comment")
create constraint("products", "price_must_be_positive", check: "price > 0", comment: "Constraint Comment")
create table("weather", prefix: "north_america", comment: "Table Comment") do
add :city, :string, size: 40, comment: "Column Comment"
timestamps()
end
end
## Repo configuration
The following migration configuration options are available for a given repository:
* `:migration_source` - Version numbers of migrations will be saved in a
table named `schema_migrations` by default. You can configure the name of
the table via:
config :app, App.Repo, migration_source: "my_migrations"
* `:migration_primary_key` - By default, Ecto uses the `:id` column with type
`:bigserial`, but you can configure it via:
config :app, App.Repo, migration_primary_key: [name: :uuid, type: :binary_id]
config :app, App.Repo, migration_primary_key: false
* `:migration_foreign_key` - By default, Ecto uses the migration_primary_key type
for foreign keys when references/2 is used, but you can configure it via:
config :app, App.Repo, migration_foreign_key: [column: :uuid, type: :binary_id]
* `:migration_timestamps` - By default, Ecto uses the `:naive_datetime` as the type,
`:inserted_at` as the name of the column for storing insertion times, `:updated_at` as
the name of the column for storing last-updated-at times, but you can configure it
via:
config :app, App.Repo, migration_timestamps: [
type: :utc_datetime,
inserted_at: :created_at,
updated_at: :changed_at
]
* `:migration_lock` - By default, Ecto will lock the migration table. This allows
multiple nodes to attempt to run migrations at the same time but only one will
succeed. You can disable the `migration_lock` by setting it to `false`
config :app, App.Repo, migration_lock: false
* `:migration_default_prefix` - Ecto defaults to `nil` for the database prefix for
migrations, but you can configure it via:
config :app, App.Repo, migration_default_prefix: "my_prefix"
* `:migration_repo` - The migration repository is where the table managing the
migrations will be stored (`migration_source` defines the table name). It defaults
to the given repository itself but you can configure it via:
config :app, App.Repo, migration_repo: App.MigrationRepo
* `:priv` - the priv directory for the repo with the location of important assets,
such as migrations. For a repository named `MyApp.FooRepo`, `:priv` defaults to
"priv/foo_repo" and migrations should be placed at "priv/foo_repo/migrations"
* `:start_apps_before_migration` - A list of applications to be started before
running migrations. Used by `Ecto.Migrator.with_repo/3` and the migration tasks:
config :app, App.Repo, start_apps_before_migration: [:ssl, :some_custom_logger]
## Prefixes
Migrations support specifying a table prefix or index prefix which will
target either a schema (if using PostgreSQL) or a different database (if using
MySQL). If no prefix is provided, the default schema or database is used.
Any reference declared in the table migration refers by default to the table
with the same declared prefix. The prefix is specified in the table options:
def up do
create table("weather", prefix: "north_america") do
add :city, :string, size: 40
add :temp_lo, :integer
add :temp_hi, :integer
add :prcp, :float
add :group_id, references(:groups)
timestamps()
end
create index("weather", [:city], prefix: "north_america")
end
Note: if using MySQL with a prefixed table, you must use the same prefix
for the references since cross-database references are not supported.
When using a prefixed table with either MySQL or PostgreSQL, you must use the
same prefix for the index field to ensure that you index the prefix-qualified
table.
## Transaction Callbacks
If possible, each migration runs inside a transaction. This is true for Postgres,
but not true for MySQL, as the latter does not support DDL transactions.
In some rare cases, you may need to execute some common behavior after beginning
a migration transaction, or before committing that transaction. For instance, one
might desire to set a `lock_timeout` for each lock in the migration transaction.
You can do so by defining `c:after_begin/0` and `c:before_commit/0` callbacks to
your migration.
However, if you need do so for every migration module, implement this callback
for every migration can be quite repetitive. Luckily, you can handle this by
providing your migration module:
defmodule MyApp.Migration do
defmacro __using__(_) do
quote do
use Ecto.Migration
def after_begin() do
repo().query! "SET lock_timeout TO '5s'", "SET lock_timeout TO '10s'"
end
end
end
end
Then in your migrations you can `use MyApp.Migration` to share this behavior
among all your migrations.

## Adding/dropping indexes concurrently
PostgreSQL supports adding/dropping indexes concurrently (see the
[docs](http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/sql-createindex.html)).
However, this feature does not work well with the transactions used by
Ecto to guarantee integrity during migrations.
Therefore, to migrate indexes concurrently, you need to set
both `@disable_ddl_transaction` and `@disable_migration_lock` to true:
defmodule MyRepo.Migrations.CreateIndexes do
use Ecto.Migration
@disable_ddl_transaction true
@disable_migration_lock true
def change do
create index("posts", [:slug], concurrently: true)
end
end
Disabling DDL transactions removes the guarantee that all of the changes
in the migration will happen at once. Disabling the migration lock removes
the guarantee only a single node will run a given migration if multiple
nodes are attempting to migrate at the same time.
Since running migrations outside a transaction and without locks can be
dangerous, consider performing very few operations in migrations that add
concurrent indexes. We recommend to run migrations with concurrent indexes
in isolation and disable those features only temporarily.
## Index types
When creating an index, the index type can be specified with the `:using`
option. The `:using` option can be an atom or a string, and its value is
passed to the generated `USING` clause as-is.
For example, PostgreSQL supports several index types like B-tree (the
default), Hash, GIN, and GiST. More information on index types can be found
in the [PostgreSQL docs](http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/indexes-types.html).
## Partial indexes
Databases like PostgreSQL and MSSQL support partial indexes.
A partial index is an index built over a subset of a table. The subset
is defined by a conditional expression using the `:where` option.
The `:where` option can be an atom or a string; its value is passed
to the generated `WHERE` clause as-is.
More information on partial indexes can be found in the [PostgreSQL
docs](http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/indexes-partial.html).
## Examples
# With no name provided, the name of the below index defaults to
# products_category_id_sku_index
create index("products", [:category_id, :sku], unique: true)
# The name can also be set explicitly
create index("products", [:category_id, :sku], name: :my_special_name)
# Indexes can be added concurrently
create index("products", [:category_id, :sku], concurrently: true)
# The index type can be specified
create index("products", [:name], using: :hash)
# Partial indexes are created by specifying a :where option
create index("products", [:user_id], where: "price = 0", name: :free_products_index)
# Covering indexes are created by specifying a :include option
create index("products", [:user_id], include: [:category_id])
Indexes also support custom expressions. Some databases may require the
index expression to be written between parentheses:
# Create an index on a custom expression
create index("products", ["(lower(name))"], name: :products_lower_name_index)
# Create a tsvector GIN index on PostgreSQL
create index("products", ["(to_tsvector('english', name))"],

Executes arbitrary SQL, anonymous function or a keyword command.
The argument is typically a string, containing the SQL command to be executed.
Keyword commands exist for non-SQL adapters and are not used in most situations.
Supplying an anonymous function does allow for arbitrary code to execute as

by library authors who want to create high-level migration helpers.
Reversible commands can be defined by calling `execute/2`.

Adds a column when creating or altering a table.
This function also accepts Ecto primitive types as column types
that are normalized by the database adapter. For example,
`:string` is converted to `:varchar`, `:binary` to `:bits` or `:blob`,
and so on.
However, the column type is not always the same as the type used in your
schema. For example, a schema that has a `:string` field can be supported by
columns of type `:char`, `:varchar`, `:text`, and others. For this reason,
this function also accepts `:text` and other type annotations that are native
to the database. These are passed to the database as-is.
To sum up, the column type may be either an Ecto primitive type,
which is normalized in cases where the database does not understand it,
such as `:string` or `:binary`, or a database type which is passed as-is.
Custom Ecto types like `Ecto.UUID` are not supported because
they are application-level concerns and may not always map to the database.
Note: It may be necessary to quote case-sensitive, user-defined type names.
For example, PostgreSQL normalizes all identifiers to lower case unless
they are wrapped in double quotes. To ensure a case-sensitive type name
is sent properly, it must be defined `:'"LikeThis"'` or `:"\"LikeThis\""`.
This is not necessary for column names because Ecto quotes them automatically.
Type names are not automatically quoted because they may be expressions such
as `varchar(255)`.
## Examples
create table("posts") do
add :title, :string, default: "Untitled"
end
alter table("posts") do
add :summary, :text # Database type
add :object, :map # Elixir type which is handled by the database
add :custom, :'"UserDefinedType"' # A case-sensitive, user-defined type name
end
## Options
* `:primary_key` - when `true`, marks this field as the primary key.
If multiple fields are marked, a composite primary key will be created.
* `:default` - the column's default value. It can be a string, number, empty
list, list of strings, list of numbers, or a fragment generated by
`fragment/1`.
* `:null` - when `false`, the column does not allow null values.
* `:size` - the size of the type (for example, the number of characters).
The default is no size, except for `:string`, which defaults to `255`.
* `:precision` - the precision for a numeric type. Required when `:scale` is
specified.
* `:scale` - the scale of a numeric type. Defaults to `0`.
* `:comment` - adds a comment to the added column.
* `:after` - positions field after the specified one. Only supported on MySQL,
it is ignored by other databases.

Modifies the type of a column when altering a table.
This command is not reversible unless the `:from` option is provided.
When the `:from` option is set, the adapter will try to drop
the corresponding foreign key constraints before modifying the type.
Generally speaking, you want to pass the type and each option
you are modifying to `:from`, so the column can be rolled back properly.
However, note that `:from` cannot be be used to modify primary keys,
as those are generally trickier to revert.
See `add/3` for more information on supported types.
If you want to modify a column without changing its type,
such as adding or dropping a null constraints, consider using
the `execute/2` command with the relevant SQL command instead
of `modify/3`, if supported by your database. This may avoid
redundant type updates and be more efficient.
## Examples
alter table("posts") do
modify :title, :text
end
# Self rollback when using the :from option
alter table("posts") do
modify :title, :text, from: :string
end
# Modify column with rollback options
alter table("posts") do
modify :title, :text, null: false, from: {:string, null: true}
end
## Options
* `:null` - determines whether the column accepts null values.
* `:default` - changes the default value of the column.
* `:from` - specifies the current type and options of the column.
* `:size` - specifies the size of the type (for example, the number of characters).
The default is no size.
* `:precision` - the precision for a numeric type. Required when `:scale` is
specified.
* `:scale` - the scale of a numeric type. Defaults to `0`.

Defines a foreign key.
By default it assumes you are linking to the referenced table

* `:column` - The column name in the referenced table, which defaults to `:id`.
* `:prefix` - The prefix for the reference. Defaults to the prefix
defined by the block's `table/2` struct (the "products" table in
the example above), or `nil`.
* `:type` - The foreign key type, which defaults to `:bigserial`.
* `:on_delete` - What to do if the referenced entry is deleted. May be
`:nothing` (default), `:delete_all`, `:nilify_all`, or `:restrict`.
* `:on_update` - What to do if the referenced entry is updated. May be
`:nothing` (default), `:update_all`, `:nilify_all`, or `:restrict`.
* `:validate` - Whether or not to validate the foreign key constraint on
creation or not. Only available in PostgreSQL, and should be followed by
a command to validate the foreign key in a following migration if false.
* `:with` - defines additional keys to the foreign key in order to build
a composite primary key
