Re: Database migrations

Hello,

> I was thinking about just having a bunch of SQL files with a version number and date and applying them to the database from oldest to newest (with a table storing information for files that have already been processed). Does this sound like a reasonable solution?

It does. Actually, there is a known JS library that does exactly that: Knex.js (1). It allows you to define your SQL in plain JS (e.g. `knex.schema.createTable(‘users’, …)`). It will then keep track of which migrations (JS files) have been ran and which need to be run. It stores this metadata in a table called “migrations” (you can configure the exact name).
