sails-migration-control

Purpose

sails-migration-control provides an easy way to manage database migrations with sails, although lets you run any kind of script encoded in utf8. You do not have to worry about which scripts were or were not installed in each version.

Install

1. Copy the migrations.js file inside /config

2. Create a Migration.js model:

	sails generate model migration
	
3. Create a new folder migrations inside /config (Not mandatory, you put your scripts 
where you want, but all in one location)

4. Indicate this directory in the global configuration variables:

	migrations: {
		dir: __dirname + '/../migrations'
	}
	
5. Finally, invoke it from the bootstrap.js file:
	
	var migrations = require('./migrations.js');
	migrations.doMigrations(sails.config.migrations, cb);

API

migrations.doMigrations(options, callback)
	* options -> Object
	* callback -> Function

Use

Put your scripts inside the migrations folder or the one which you choose and lift the 
server. Please, don't repeat names, my suggestion:
	yyyyMMdd_some_descriptive_name

Example of script

Model.native(function(err, collection) {
	collection.ensureIndex( { "createdAt": 1 }, { expireAfterSeconds: 3600 }, function(err, result) {
		if (err) callback(err);
	});
});
