title: Migrations
---
MikroORM has integrated support for migrations via [umzug](https://github.com/sequelize/umzug). It allows you to generate migrations with current schema differences.
By default, each migration will be all executed inside a transaction, and all of them will be wrapped in one master transaction, so if one of them fails, everything will be rolled back.
## Migration class
Migrations are classes that extend Migration abstract class:
```typescript
export class Migration20191019195930 extends Migration {
async up(): Promise<void> {
this.addSql('select 1 + 1');
}
}
```
To support undoing those changed, you can implement the `down` method, which throws an error by default.
Migrations are by default wrapped in a transaction. You can override this behaviour on per migration basis by implementing the `isTransactional(): boolean` method.
`Configuration` object and driver instance are available in the `Migration` class context.
## Configuration
```typescript
await MikroORM.init({
// default values:
migrations: {
tableName: 'mikro_orm_migrations', // name of database table with log of executed transactions
path: './migrations', // path to the folder with migrations
pattern: /^[\w-]+\d+\.ts$/, // regex pattern for the migration files
transactional: true, // wrap each migration in a transaction
disableForeignKeys: true, // wrap statements with `set foreign_key_checks = 0` or equivalent
allOrNothing: true, // wrap all migrations in master transaction
dropTables: true, // allow to disable table dropping
safe: false, // allow to disable table and column dropping
emit: 'ts', // migration generation mode
},
})
```
## Using via CLI
You can use it via CLI:
```sh
npx mikro-orm migration:create # Create new migration with current schema diff
npx mikro-orm migration:up # Migrate up to the latest version
npx mikro-orm migration:down # Migrate one step down
npx mikro-orm migration:list # List all executed migrations
npx mikro-orm migration:pending # List all pending migrations
```
For `migration:up` and `migration:down` commands you can specify `--from` (`-f`), `--to` (`-t`) and `--only` (`-o`) options to run only a subset of migrations:
```sh
npx mikro-orm migration:up --from 2019101911 --to 2019102117 # the same as above
npx mikro-orm migration:up --only 2019101923 # apply a single migration
npx mikro-orm migration:down --to 0 # migrate down all migrations
```
> To run TS migration files, you will need to [enable `useTsNode` flag](./installation.md) in your `package.json`.
## Using the Migrator programmatically
Or you can create a simple script where you initialize MikroORM like this:
```typescript title="./migrate.ts"
import { MikroORM } from 'mikro-orm';
(async () => {
const orm = await MikroORM.init({
dbName: 'your-db-name',
// ...
});
const migrator = orm.getMigrator();
await migrator.createMigration(); // creates file Migration20191019195930.ts
await migrator.up(); // runs migrations up to the latest
await migrator.up('name'); // runs only given migration, up
await migrator.up({ to: 'up-to-name' }); // runs migrations up to given version
await migrator.down(); // migrates one step down
await migrator.down('name'); // runs only given migration, down
await migrator.down({ to: 'down-to-name' }); // runs migrations down to given version
await migrator.down({ to: 0 }); // migrates down to the first version
await orm.close(true);
})();
```
Then run this script via `ts-node` (or compile it to plain JS and use `node`):
```sh
$ ts-node migrate
```
## Limitations
### MySQL
There is no way to rollback DDL changes in MySQL. An implicit commit is forced for those queries automatically, so transactions are not working as expected.
