# ActiveRecord::Migrations

This gem provides opinionated support for ActiveRecord migrations in non-Rails applications. It's more opinionated than [active_record_migrations](https://github.com/rosenfeld/active_record_migrations) and [standalone-migrations](https://github.com/thuss/standalone-migrations), and therefore simpler to configure.

## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

```ruby
gem 'activerecord-migrations'
```

## Usage

Add something like this to `tasks/db.rake`

```ruby
require 'active_record/migrations/tasks'
# The root must be the root of your application, and contain `db/`.
ActiveRecord::Migrations.root = File.dirname(__dir__)
```

Somewhere else, ensure you have a suitable `environment` task, e.g:

```ruby
task :environment do
# This must be a symbol... or establish_connection thinks it's a URL.
DATABASE_ENV = :development

ActiveRecord::Base.configurations = {
# This key must be a string or it will not be matched by ActiveRecord:
'development' => {
# Using symbols for keys is fixed by this gem.
adapter: 'sqlite3',
database: 'db/development.db'
}
}

# Connect to database:
unless ActiveRecord::Base.connected?
ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection(DATABASE_ENV)
end
end
```

### Deployment

This gem includes an additional task `db:deploy` which is designed to assist with deployment of sites with databases. When deploying a site for the first time, this task will create the database and load the seed data, then run any outstanding migrations. If deploying the site to an existing database it will simply run migrations.

The typical usage is to run `db:fixtures:update` which will generate all the required files into `db/fixtures/$DATABASE/`, which includes the contents of all tables and the current `schema.rb`.

### Fixtures

Fixtures are generated into `db/fixtures/$DATABASE_ENV/$TABLE_NAME.yml` by running `rake db:fixtures:dump`. You can limit this to specific tables by editing `db/fixtures/$DATABASE_ENV/tables.conf` which is loaded if present, or by specifying `TABLES=table1,table2` environment variable.

### Seed

This gem replaces the existing data seed mechanism with `db:fixtures:load`.
