go-migrate

A Go library for handling database migrations.

Features

• Safe to run on application startup: The migration versions table is locked, preventing multiple copies of the same migrations from executing at the same time.
• Migrations are code: Meaning you don't have to worry about how to package up .sql files, etc. into your Go binary, or transporting the .sql files with your application.
• Simple versioning: Versions are just numbers - easy to sort (timestamps make good versions).
• Configurable versions table: Migration drivers have relevant configuration exposed.
• Designed to be integrated in to your code: Output is handled by implementing an EventHandler where you can use your own logger, etc.
• Namespaced migrations: If you have multiple databases to migrate in one app, you can keep the migrations completely separate, and run them separately too.
