Use Atlas with beego to manage your database schema as code. By connecting your beego
models to Atlas,
you can define and edit your schema directly in Go. Atlas will then automatically plan and apply database schema migrations for you,
eliminating the need to write migrations manually.
Atlas brings automated CI/CD workflows to your database, along with built-in support for testing, linting,
schema drift detection, and schema monitoring. It also allows you to extend beego
with
advanced database objects such as triggers, row-level security, and custom functions that are not supported natively.
- Declarative migrations - Use the Terraform-like
atlas schema apply --env beego
command to apply yourbeego
schema to the database. - Automatic migration planning - Use
atlas migrate diff --env beego
to automatically plan database schema changes and generate a migration from the current database version to the desired version defined by yourbeego
schema.
Install Atlas from macOS or Linux by running:
curl -sSf https://atlasgo.sh | sh
See atlasgo.io for more installation options.
Install the provider by running:
go get -u ariga.io/atlas-provider-beego
If your application contains a package that registers all of its Beego models during initialization, you can use the provider directly to load your Beego schema into Atlas.
In your project directory, create a new file named atlas.hcl
with the following contents:
data "external_schema" "beego" {
program = [
"go",
"run",
"-mod=mod",
"ariga.io/atlas-provider-beego",
"load",
"--path", "./path/to/models",
"--dialect", "mysql", // | postgres | sqlite3
]
}
env "beego" {
src = data.external_schema.beego.url
dev = "docker://mysql/8/dev"
migration {
dir = "file://migrations"
}
format {
migrate {
diff = "{{ sql . \" \" }}"
}
}
}
If you want to use the provider as a Go file, you can use the provider as follows:
Create a new program named loader/main.go
with the following contents:
package main
import (
"io"
"os"
"ariga.io/atlas-provider-beego/beegoschema"
"github.com/<yourorg>/<yourrepo>/path/to/models"
)
func main() {
stmts, err := beegoschema.New("mysql").Load()
if err != nil {
fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "failed to load beego schema: %v\n", err)
os.Exit(1)
}
io.WriteString(os.Stdout, stmts)
}
// If your models are already registered in an init() function elsewhere, you can simply use
// a blank import to ensure that the init() function is called. Otherwise, you can register
// your models here.
func init() {
orm.RegisterModel(new(models.User), new(models.Group))
}
In your project directory, create a new file named atlas.hcl
with the following contents:
data "external_schema" "beego" {
program = [
"go",
"run",
"-mod=mod",
"./loader",
]
}
env "beego" {
src = data.external_schema.beego.url
dev = "docker://mysql/8/dev"
migration {
dir = "file://migrations"
}
format {
migrate {
diff = "{{ sql . \" \" }}"
}
}
}
Once you have the provider installed, you can use it to apply your beego
schema to the database.
You can use the atlas schema apply
command to plan and apply a migration of your database to
your current beego
schema. This works by inspecting the target database and comparing it to the
desired schema and creating a migration plan. Atlas will prompt you to confirm the migration plan
before applying it to the database.
atlas schema apply --env beego -u "mysql://root:password@localhost:3306/mydb"
Where the -u
flag accepts the URL to the
target database.
Atlas supports a version migration
workflow, where each change to the database is versioned and recorded in a migration file. You can use the
atlas migrate diff
command to automatically generate a migration file that will migrate the database
from its latest revision to the current beego
schema.
atlas migrate diff --env beego
The provider supports the following databases:
- MySQL
- PostgreSQL
- SQLite
