= migration_station

== DESCRIPTION:

All aboard!  Do you love the way Rails handles migrations?  Do you have non-Rails projects that could benefit from migrations?  Well set yourself up a migration station and get to work! 


== PROPOSED MIGRATION GENERATORS:
* table_migration - This migration will [eventually] generate the same 
style migrations that are generated when creating a Rails model.  Proposed 
syntax: script/generate table_migration Users first_name:text 
last_name:text to generate the up and down migration methods filled with 
the appropriate information from the arguments.

* migration - This generates a standard migration.  If possible (this is 
where help will come in handy!), establish the Rails style 
"script/generate migration AddAgeToUsers" to generate the 
migration with the up and down migration methods adding and removing the 
column from the table stated in the argument.


== PROPOSED USAGE

migration_station ProjectName
cd ProjectName
.script/generate table_migration User first_name:text last_name:text
.script/generate migration AddAgeToUser
rake migrate


== INSTALL & TEST

git clone git://github.com/mwilliams/migration_station.git
cd migration_station
rake local_deploy
cd ..
migration_station MyMigrationStation
cd MyMigrationStation
rake -T
(note: none of the Rake tasks are functioning, this simply demonstrates feature capability)
