Dbmate is a database migration tool, to keep your database schema in sync across multiple developers and your production servers. It is a standalone command line tool, which can be used with Go, Node.js, Python, Ruby, PHP, or any other language or framework you are using to write database-backed applications. This is especially helpful if you are writing many services in different languages, and want to maintain some sanity with consistent development tools. Supports MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, and ClickHouse. Uses plain SQL for writing schema migrations. Migrations are timestamp-versioned, to avoid version number conflicts with multiple developers. Migrations are run atomically inside a transaction. Supports creating and dropping databases (handy in development/test). Supports saving a schema.sql file to easily diff schema changes in git. Database connection URL is defined using an environment variable (DATABASE_URL by default), or specified on the command line.
