Add support for db migrations #18

Open dolsysmith opened 2 years ago

dolsysmith commented 2 years ago

Flask doesn't support migrations natively, but there's a library called Alembic that builds on SQLAlchemy to support them. It may not be worth the effort. On the other hand, if we end up needing to change the database in the future (to store additional information as we get more clarity on requirements), perhaps we'd find it useful.

Alembic has also been bunded into a Flask extension library called Flask-Migrate.
