Database Migrations

This directory contains all the database migrations for the web app. Migrations are done using the peewee-migrate library.

Migrations are automatically ran at app startup.

Creating a migration

Have you made a change to the schema of an existing model? You will need to create a migration file to ensure that existing databases are updated for backwards compatibility.

  1. Have a database file (webui.db) that has the old schema prior to any of your changes.
  2. Make your changes to the models.
  3. From the backend directory, run the following command:
    pw_migrate create --auto --auto-source apps.web.models --database sqlite:///${SQLITE_DB} --directory apps/web/internal/migrations ${MIGRATION_NAME}
    
    • $SQLITE_DB should be the path to the database file.
    • $MIGRATION_NAME should be a descriptive name for the migration.
  4. The migration file will be created in the apps/web/internal/migrations directory.
