  :target: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/migrations

Simple, database-agnostic migration tool for Python applications.
Inspired by `node migrations <https://github.com/tj/node-migrate>`_.

Status
------
The project is in beta now. Bugs and breaking changes may occur.

Features
--------
+ No specific database requirements, use it for anything you call database.
+ Pretty simple, just generate migration script and define self-explanatory
  ``up()`` and ``down()`` functions there.
+ Use imports in your migration scripts to load database bindings. Talk to the
  database the same way your application does.
+ Stores the sequence of already performed migrations. If the sequence does not
  match scripts in migrations directory (e.g. after merge), aborts and warns user.
+ *TBD: Deeply configurable, including resources acquiring and releasing.*

Requirements
------------
Only Python 3 is supported for now.

Installation
------------
.. code-block:: bash

    $ pip install migrations

Notice, this distribution provides package and executable
script named ``migrate``, so check if it does not mess with
existing packages/scripts. Generally, you should neither install
this tool globally, nor install several migration tools for one project.

Usage
-----
.. code-block::

    usage: migrate [options] [action]

    actions:
      up     [-h] [NAME|COUNT]   (default) perform COUNT migrations or till
                                 given NAME (by default perform all available)
      down   [-h] [NAME|COUNT]   revert COUNT migrations or till
                                 given NAME (by default revert one)
      create [-h]  NAME          create new migration file

      show   [-h]                print all migrations in chronological order

    options:
      -h, --help                 show this help message and exit
      -v, --version              show version and exit
      -d PATH, --migrations-dir PATH
                                 directory where migrations are stored
      -s PATH, --state-file PATH
                                 location of file which stores database state
      -t PATH, --template-file PATH
                                 location of template file for new migrations

Each migration file must define functions ``up()`` and ``down()``
without required arguments.

Simple migration example:

.. code-block:: python

    import redis

    db = redis.Redis(host='localhost', port=6379)

    def up():
        db.rpush('used_libraries', 'migrations')

    def down():
        db.rpop('used_libraries', 'migrations')

Current working directory is prepended to ``sys.path``, so any
``import`` statement in migration file tries to find requested
module in working directory at first. You can use this to manage
database access for your both app and migrations with single piece
of code. See an example. Let's assume that in working directory
we have module named ``db``, which contains singleton object
responsible for DB connection, for example
`PyMySQL <https://github.com/PyMySQL/PyMySQL>`_ Connection object.

.. code-block:: python

    from db import connection

    def manage_cursor(action):
        def wrap():
            with connection.cursor() as cursor:
                action(cursor)
            connection.commit()
        return wrap

    @manage_cursor
    def up(cursor):
        cursor.execute(
            "INSERT INTO used_libraries (`name`) VALUES ('migrations')"
        )

    @manage_cursor
    def down(cursor):
        cursor.execute(
            "DELETE FROM used_libraries WHERE `name`='migrations'"
        )
