# Introduction

DB Migration App is a Desktop database migration app based on SQL files.

It's built with Electron and uses marv as the migration tool.

# Installation

To install the app go to Releases Page and download the app for your system.

The AppImage version runs on Linux without installation. Just double click it.

The deb version is for Debian/Ubuntu based systems. You can install through GDebi or dpkg.

sudo dpkg -i db-migration-app_x.x.x_amd64.deb

Replace x with the actual version.

The exe version is portable for Windows. Just run as a normal user.

The Mac version requires MacOS and currently we're not able to build it.

# How does it work?

You can start configuring the database connection. Example connection to PostgreSQL:

After click the button Connect, you can select your migration directory. The directory must contain only .sql files, such as:

└── migrations/
    ├── 001.create-table.sql
    └── 002.create-another-table.sql

Filenames must be in the form <level><separator><comment>.sql where:

• level must be numeric
• separator can be any non numeric
• comment can contain any characters except . (dot)
