i hope authors would make documentation for this, how to use wit .env, i can't use .env on dbconfig.yml, and there is no documentation as well how touse envirotnment
@daddycarbone I figured that when you strictly dockerize your application (which is always a very good thing to do!) you won't have a problem with this. My Dockerfile runs a script, that executes
export "$(< .env xargs)"
// and then you may want to run...
sql-migrate up
Since your application lives in docker, you wouldn't use the sql-migrate CLI locally anyway. You would run docker-compose exec server sql-migrate down
or something like that.
While I'm satisfied with this, I still think it would be a great feature for others to have the dbconfig.yml
file read from .env
file.
I would never recommend using the CLI in production. Use sql-migrate
as a library and embed it into your application.
I wasn‘t talking about production. Just using docker locally and use the CLI in the containers.
But I do the same in production. Why should I not? I need to get my migrations to apply on the production databse.
It is possible to reference environment variables in the
dbconfig.yml
. I am used to work with a.env
file here. But sql-migrate is not reading from it.
