Laravel DB Updates

In short, database updates package is used to update or fix your data in database. It works on the same principle as Laravel migrations.

Each DB update can be run only once across environments.

Installation

Install the package via composer:

composer require rockero-cz/laravel-db-updates

Publish and run migrations with:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="db-updates-migrations"
php artisan migrate

Generating Updates

php artisan make:update update_name

return new class
{
    /**
     * Run the updates.
     */
    public function __invoke(): void
    {
        //
    }
};

Running Updates

php artisan db:update

Usage Examples

Below you can find some practical examples.

Until now, a post could only have one image, now it can have multiple ones though, so you need to transfer your post image to the separate images table:

/**
 * Run the updates.
 */
public function __invoke(): void
{
    Post::all()->each(function (Post $post) {
        $post->images()->create([
            'url' => $post->image,
            'title' => $post->title
        ]);
    });
}

Your production database had some testing data and you finally decided to delete them, so you need to delete all records older than 2023-01-01:

/**
 * Run the updates.
 */
public function __invoke(): void
{
    Post::query()
        ->where('created_at', '<', '2023-01-01')
        ->delete();

    User::query()
        ->where('created_at', '<', '2023-01-01')
        ->delete();
}

You have made some refactoring and you also renamed a state name, so you need to rename it in the database:

/**
 * Run the updates.
 */
public function __invoke(): void
{
    Order::query()
        ->where('state', 'new')
        ->update(['state' => OrderState::CREATED]);
}

Testing

composer test
