This is a small package that builds on Laravel's wonderful database package. It extracts the database migration feature in order to use it in any project that may not be built on Laravel.

Note
----

[](#note)

This is currently a proof of concept. There are rough edges (such as the configuration file and migrations folder location). Those should be fixed given enough time and feedback. Feel free to submit a PR if you have a suggestion on how to deal with those!

This project currently uses some from of "hack" by creating some files in the `Illuminate/Foundation` namespace. It is expected you will not use this project within the context of a Laravel application, otherwise conflicts will occur.

Getting Started
---------------

[](#getting-started)

### Laravel 4

[](#laravel-4)

Due to technical constraints, the folder structure in Laravel 4 has to be a certain way (specifically, we need a `database/migrations` path). You can follow Laravel 5 instructions on how to get started, simply make sure that you create the `database/migrations` path (instead of simply `migrations`).

```
your-project
- database
-- database.php
-- database
--- migrations
---- 2015_11_17_215411_some_migration.php
- vendor
-- tomzx
--- LaravelMigration

```

### Laravel 5

[](#laravel-5)

The current implementation looks in the current working directory for a configuration file `database.php` and migration files in the `migrations` directory.

```
your-project
- database
-- database.php
-- migrations
--- 2015_11_17_215411_some_migration.php
- vendor
-- tomzx
--- LaravelMigration

```

To use the tool, you would call `laravel-migration` within the `database` directory in the following way:

`php ../vendor/bin/laravel-migration`

Thus, the current setup steps are:

1. Create a `database` directory where you will store your `database.php` and `migrations` files
2. Copy `database.php` to your newly created directory and configure it to your needs
3. Create a `migrations` directory in the newly created directory
4. You may now enjoy `laravel-migration`!
