Powerful SQL migration toolkit for Rust.

Crates.io docs.rs MIT licensed Build Status


Refinery strives to make running migrations for different databases as easy as possible. It works by running your migrations on a provided database connection, either by embedding them on your Rust code, or via the refinery_cli.

Currently postgres, tokio-postgres , mysql, mysql_async, rusqlite and tiberius are supported. If you are using a driver that is not yet supported, namely SQLx you can run migrations providing a Config instead of the connection type, as Config impl's Migrate. You will still need to provide the postgres/mysql/rusqlite/tiberius driver as a feature for Runner::run and tokio-postgres/mysql_async for Runner::run_async. refinery works best with Barrel but you can also have your migrations in .sql files or use any other Rust crate for schema generation.

Usage

  • Add refinery to your Cargo.toml dependencies with the selected driver as feature eg: refinery = { version = "0.8", features = ["rusqlite"]}
  • Migrations can be defined in .sql files or Rust modules that must have a function called migration that returns a String.
  • Migrations can be strictly versioned by prefixing the file with V or not strictly versioned by prefixing the file with U.
  • Migrations, both .sql files and Rust modules must be named in the format [U|V]{1}__{2}.sql or [U|V]{1}__{2}.rs, where {1} represents the migration version and {2} the name.
  • Migrations can be run either by embedding them in your Rust code with embed_migrations macro, or via refinery_cli.

Example: Library

use rusqlite::Connection;

mod embedded {
    use refinery::embed_migrations;
    embed_migrations!("./tests/sql_migrations");
}

fn main() {
    let mut conn = Connection::open_in_memory().unwrap();
    embedded::migrations::runner().run(&mut conn).unwrap();
}

For more library examples, refer to the examples.

Example: CLI

NOTE:

  • Contiguous (adjacent) migration version numbers are restricted to u32 (unsigned, 32-bit integers).
  • Non-contiguous (not adjacent) migration version numbers are restricted to u32 (unsigned, 32-bit integers).
export DATABASE_URL="postgres://postgres:secret@localhost:5432/your-db"
pushd migrations
    # Runs ./src/V1__*.rs or ./src/V1__*.sql 
    refinery migrate -e DATABASE_URL -p ./src -t 1
popd

Example: Deadpool

let mut conn = pool.get().await?;
let client = conn.deref_mut().deref_mut();
let report = embedded::migrations::runner().run_async(client).await?;

Non-contiguous VS Contiguous migrations

Depending on how your project/team has been structured will define whether you want to use contiguous (adjacent) migrations V{1}__{2}.[sql|rs] or non-contiguous (not adjacent) migrations U{1}__{2}.[sql|rs]. If migration sequential numbering reflects the order they were developed and, they are deployed in the order they are numbered, you won't run into any problems using contiguous migrations. This is because you can be sure the next migration being run is always going to have a version number greater than the previous.

With non-contiguous migrations there is more flexibility in the order that the migrations can be created and deployed. If developer 1 creates a PR with a migration today U11__update_cars_table.sql, but it is reviewed for a week. Meanwhile, developer 2 creates a PR with migration U12__create_model_tags.sql that is much simpler and gets merged and deployed immediately. This would stop developer 1's migration from ever running if you were using contiguous migrations because the next migration would need to be > 12.

Implementation details

refinery works by creating a table that keeps all the applied migrations' versions and their metadata. When you run the migrations Runner, refinery compares the applied migrations with the ones to be applied, checking for divergent and missing and executing unapplied migrations.
By default, refinery runs each migration in a single transaction. Alternatively, you can also configure refinery to wrap the entire execution of all migrations in a single transaction by setting set_grouped to true.

Rollback

refinery's design was based on flyway and so, it shares its earlier philosophy on undo/rollback migrations. Flyway has since changed it's opinion but refinery hasn't. To undo/rollback a migration, you have to generate a new one and write specifically what you want to undo.

Support for Additional Database Drivers

While initially it seemed beneficial to support as many aditional drivers as possible in this repo, with the current bandwidth available by the maintainers it's preferable to create them and maintain them on external repositories (see here for context).

Notable external database drivers:

MSRV

refinery aims to support stable Rust, the previous Rust version, and nightly.
