Laravel Migrate Specific File(s) from Migrations
LaravelLaravel 5MigrationLaravel 8Laravel Problem Overview
Hi read all the included documentation here in https://laravel.com/docs/5.4/migrations.
Is there a way on how to migrate a certain migration file (1 migration only), cause right now every time there is a change I use php artisan migrate:refresh
and all fields are getting reset.
Laravel Solutions
Solution 1 - Laravel
First you should create one migration
file for your table like:
public function up()
{
Schema::create('test', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->string('fname',255);
$table->string('lname',255);
$table->rememberToken();
$table->timestamps();
});
}
After create test folder in migrations folder then newly created migration moved/copied in test folder and run below command in your terminal/cmd like:
php artisan migrate --path=/database/migrations/test/
Solution 2 - Laravel
you should add the path to your migration file to refresh just this table and run
php artisan migrate:refresh --path=/database/migrations/fileName.php
Solution 3 - Laravel
Just look at the migrations
table in your database, there will be a list of migration file name and batch number value.
Suppose you have following structure,
id migration batch
1 2014_10_12_000000_create_users_table 1
2 2014_10_12_100000_create_password_resets_table 1
3 2016_09_07_103432_create_tabel_roles 1
If you want to just rollback 2016_09_07_103432_create_tabel_roles
migration,
change it's migration batch value to 2 which is highest among all and then just execute following.
php artisan migrate:rollback
Here only table with batch value 2 will be rolled back. Now, make changes to that table and run following console command.
php artisan migrate
Batch value in the migrations
table defines order of the migrations. when you rollback, migrations that are latest or have highest batch value are rolled back at first and then others. So, you can change the value in database and then rollback a particular migration file.
Although it's not a good idea to change batch number every time because of relationship among the table structure, we can use this case for some cases where single table rollback doesn't violates the integrity among the tables.
Hope you understand.
Solution 4 - Laravel
if you use tab for autocomplete
php artisan migrate --path='./database/migrations/2019_12_31_115457_create_coworking_personal_memberships_table.php'
Solution 5 - Laravel
php artisan migrate --path=database/migrations/2020_04_10_130703_create_test_table.php
Note : > after --path no / before
Solution 6 - Laravel
You can run command like this
php artisan migrate --path=/database/migrations/2020_04_10_130703_create_test_table.php
Solution 7 - Laravel
You need to put the file(s) into a new directory (ex:selected) and then apply
php artisan migrate --path=/database/migrations/selected
if you need rollback:
php artisan migrate:rollback --path=/database/migrations/selected
Note:
php artisan migrate:refresh
this will rollback and then migrate all the migrations files in the default directory (/database/migrations)
Solution 8 - Laravel
php artisan help migrate
You will see the option: >--path[=PATH] The path to the migrations files to be executed
By the way, you can probably indicate the root folder of the file that you want to migrate:
php artisan migrate --path=/database/migrations/sample.php
Or, You can create a new folder in migrations, then migrate all the migration files you want inside it:
php artisan migrate --path=/database/migrations/new_folder
Solution 9 - Laravel
You can only run this command in your terminal
php artisan migrate --path=database/migrations/2020_10_01_164611_create_asset_info_table.php
After migrations you should put the particular file name. or if you have any folder inside migration then just add that folder name after the migration.
Like this
php artisan migrate --path=database/migrations/yourfolder/2020_10_01_164611_create_asset_info_table.php
I hope this will help you a lil bit. Happy Coding.
Solution 10 - Laravel
Get the actual file name and path of the migration and run the command like below
php artisan migrate --path=/database/migrations/2021_10_03_071450_create_reset_codes_table.php
Solution 11 - Laravel
If you want to create one and specific table. You can use this code. It works for laravel(5.x) versions.
php artisan migrate:refresh --path=/database/migrations/fileName.php
Solution 12 - Laravel
For Specific File run this command:
php artisan migrate:refresh --path="database/migrations/Your_Migration_File_Name_table.php"
Here --file=
is for location of your file and migrate:refresh
will empty your table data
If you want to empty all table's data from database then run
php artisan migrate:refresh
command.
Solution 13 - Laravel
Just wanted to post another solution, which i think is worth mentioning.
- Find row with your migration name in migrations table and DELETE it. It should look like this: 2016_06_01_000001_create_oauth_auth_codes_table
- Remove your table from database e.g. DROP TABLE oauth_auth_codes
- Run php artisan migrate
It will migrate only the table you need, and won't touch anything else
Solution 14 - Laravel
Correction- remove slash before the database
$ php artisan migrate --path=database/migrations/migration.php
Solution 15 - Laravel
php artisan migrate --path=/database/migrations/fileName.php
You don't have to refresh for migration, because refresh means : Rollback all migrations and run them all again.
Solution 16 - Laravel
You can only rollback:
php artisan migrate:rollback
https://laravel.com/docs/5.4/migrations#rolling-back-migrations
You can specify how many migrations to roll back to using the 'step' option:
php artisan migrate:rollback --step=1
Some tricks are available here:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30287896/rollback-one-specific-migration-in-laravel
Solution 17 - Laravel
Delete the table and remove its record from migration table.
After that you just run migration again:
php artisan migrate
Solution 18 - Laravel
Specific Table Migration
php artisan migrate --path=/database/migrations/fileName.php
Solution 19 - Laravel
Or you can simply delete migration file name from your database, in "migrations" table and then run : php artitsan migration
Solution 20 - Laravel
You could try to use the --path= option to define the specific sub-folder you're wanting to execute and place specific migrations in there.
Alternatively you would need to remove reference and tables from the DB and migrations tables which isn't ideal :/
Solution 21 - Laravel
If you want to create another table, just create a new migration file. It'll will work.
If you create a migration named users_table
with id, first_name, last_name
. You can create a migration file like
public function up()
{
Schema::create('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->string('first_name',255);
$table->string('last_name',255);
$table->rememberToken();
$table->timestamps();
});
}
public function down()
{
Schema::dropIfExists('users');
}
If you want to add another field like "status" without migrate:refresh. You can create another migration file like "add_status_filed_to_users_table"
public function up()
{
Schema::table('users', function($table) {
$table->integer('status');
});
}
And don't forget to add the rollback option:
public function down()
{
Schema::table('users', function($table) {
$table->dropColumn('status');
});
}
And when you run the migration with php artisan migration
, just migrate the new migration file.
But if you add field "status" into the first migration file (users_table) and run migration. It's nothing to migrate. You need to run php artisan migrate:refresh
.
Hope this help.
Solution 22 - Laravel
install this package
https://github.com/nilpahar/custom-migration/
and run this command.
php artisan migrate:custom -f migration_name
Solution 23 - Laravel
php artisan migrate --path=/database/migrations/fileName.php
Just follow the instruction execute this commant file name here should be your migration table name Example: php artisan migrate --path=/database/migrations/2020_02_21_101937_create_jobs_table.php
Solution 24 - Laravel
Just use the --path flag. You don't need to use rollback, refresh, or any other command. Example:
php artisan migrate --path=/database/migrations/migration_file_name.php
Solution 25 - Laravel
You can use this.
-> https://packagist.org/packages/sayeed/custom-migrate
-> https://github.com/nilpahar/custom-migration/
this is very easy to use
Solution 26 - Laravel
you can also migrate again migrated table but first you need to go in database migration table and delete row that specific migration name. and then hit php artisan migrate
Solution 27 - Laravel
Use: --path=database/migrations/your_migration_file_name.php
Examples:
php artisan migrate:refresh --path=database/migrations/your_migration_file_name.php
php artisan migrate:rollback --path=database/migrations/your_migration_file_name.php
php artisan migrate --path=database/migrations/your_migration_file_name.php
