# Go database migrate
This is a simple database migration library for Go. This library is intended to be used with go-bindata.
We recommended using a go generate command to update the go-bindata file.
## Example
`files/0001.sql`:
```sql
CREATE TABLE tests (
Name varchar(100) NOT NULL
);
INSERT INTO tests VALUES ('migration test');
```
Run `go-bindata --prefix files files`
*Optionally add the flags `-nomemcopy` and `-nometadata`*
`main.go`:
```go
package main
import (
"migrate"
)
func main() {
db, err = sql.Open(`postgres`, `host=/run/postgresql dbname=testdb sslmode=disable`)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println(`Failed to connect to database. Message:`, err)
}
err = migrate.Migrate(db, 1, migrate.Options{Schema:`testschema`}, migrations.Asset}
if err != nil {
fmt.Println(`The migration failed! Message:`, err)
}
fmt.Println(`The database migration/update was successful`)
}
```
## File names:
The names of your migration files should look like this:
```
0001.sql
0002.sql
...
0010.sql
...
0325.sql
```
