dgroup / vcs4sql Goto Github PK

In the last few years, version control for database became best practice. There are several implementations/ways for ruby, however, most of them are focused/dependent on particular frameworks that restrict the migration outside the framework. vcs4sql allows organizing version control for the database(s) in a simple, elegant and lightweight way without any dependencies on existing frameworks.

The main idea is to keep changes as simple as possible and be able to have full control of the database structure without hidden frameworks "magic". Initial PoC is designed for sqlite.

Vcs4sql::Sqlite::Migration.new "sqlite.db"
                          .upgrade "upgrades/sqlite"

The scripts will be executed in a natural order based on name, so far.
