[Proposal/Enhancement] Artisan CLI Migrate command does not go through all sub folders of the migrations folder.

[Xees]

I have a massive project with over ~130 migrations. And i have them sorted into 4 sub folders inside the migrations folder.

Yet when i migrate using artisan. It only sorts through the base migrations folder and not its subfolders.

I think this is a useful enhancement for large projects.

You should be able to do (right away):

php artisan migrate --path=/app/database/migrations/foo1
php artisan migrate --path=/app/database/migrations/foo2
php artisan migrate --path=/app/database/migrations/foo3

Why limit the user to using commands for each subfolder when you can make artisan migrate all subfolders automatically?

[crynobone]

I'm saying that what you can do right now, and you can also swap the implementation based on your own project.

Otherwise just hope there a significant request support your request for @taylorotwell to spend his time working on it 😄

👎 I see no reason for this.

Unneeded over complication on a nice and simple system that works nicely

Migrations are essentially a sequential line. I'm guessing that someone is bending the migrations system to fit an alternate need. Perhaps creating a solution directly targeted for that need would be better? You could still use Schema and everything.

Nested migration folders not needed.
