Migrations -f argument is ignored

[craigwilliams84]

Issue

Migrations -f argument is ignored (works in 4.1.3 but not 4.1.4/5)

Steps to Reproduce

• Run truffle migrate -f 2 in a project with multiple migrations files.

Expected Behavior

Only migration script 2 should be run.

Actual Results

All migration scripts are run.

Environment

• Operating System: MacOS 10.13.2
• Ethereum client: ganache-cli 6.0.3
• Truffle version (truffle version): 4.1.5
• node version (node --version): 8.7.0
• npm version (npm --version): 5.6.0

@craigwilliams84 Thanks for reporting. We made a change in 4.1.5 documented here. It must be causing this issue but it's not obvious how exactly.

Is your code public? Or could you add any information about your migrations to help clarify what's gone wrong here?

[craigwilliams84]

The code isn't currently public, but I have created a simple dummy project that reproduces the issue.

@craigwilliams84 Have opened a PR fixing this.

Unfortunately I don't see a great interim workaround - a PR for 4.1.5 created a conflict in the way the options are interpreted and -f is currently only being parsed as a boolean.

Thanks so much for reporting and for providing a reproduction case.

[craigwilliams84]

No problem at all, thanks for looking into it so quickly.

That linked PR been released in Truffle v4.1.6. Let us know if this solves the problem! Thanks!

@fawrn Have just tested 4.1.6 against the example @craigwilliams84 produced for this issue above and -f is working as expected. If you have a chance could you run that and a) see if it works on your machine, b) identify any differences between that case and yours?
