Alembic migrations for Virtool

Primary LanguagePython

virtool-migration

Migrations for Virtool's PostgreSQL database written using Alembic.

Usage

Run the latest migration Docker image in your stack.

The SQLALCHEMY_URL environment variable must be set:

Command Line

docker run -e SQLALCHEMY_URL="postgresql://virtool:virtool@localhost/virtool" virtool/migration:1.1.2

Kubernetes

spec:
  containers:
    - name: migration
      image: virtool/migration:1.1.2
      env:
        - name: SQLALCHEMY_URL
          value: "postgresql://virtool:virtool@localhost/virtool"

The following command is executed on container start:

alembic upgrade head

This will bring your database up-to-date with the most recent change.

You can override the command to target a different revision:

Command Line

docker run virtool/migration:1.1.2 alembic upgrade 90bf491700cb

Kubernetes

spec:
  containers:
    - name: migration
      image: virtool/migration:1.1.2
      command: "alembic upgrade 90bf491700cb"
      env:
        - name: SQLALCHEMY_URL
          value: "postgresql://virtool:virtool@localhost/virtool"

Known Issues

If migrations are applied while a transaction is open in asyncpg in another service, it will fail due to the change in schema.

We are still working on a solution for this.
