Migrations

Attention!

Migrations use transactions inside. They work only with MongoDB replica sets

Create

To create a new migration, run:

bunnet new-migration -n migration_name -p relative/path/to/migrations/directory/

It will create a file named *_migration_name.py in the directory relative/path/to/migrations/directory/

Migration file contains two classes: Forward and Backward. Each one contains instructions to roll migration respectively forward and backward.

Run

To roll one forward migration, run:

bunnet migrate -uri 'mongodb+srv://user:pass@host/db' -p relative/path/to/migrations/directory/ --distance 1

To roll all forward migrations, run:

bunnet migrate -uri 'mongodb+srv://user:pass@host/db' -p relative/path/to/migrations/directory/

To roll one backward migration, run:

bunnet migrate -uri 'mongodb+srv://user:pass@host/db' -p relative/path/to/migrations/directory/ --distance 1 --backward

To roll all backward migrations, run:

bunnet migrate -uri 'mongodb+srv://user:pass@host/db' -p relative/path/to/migrations/directory/ --backward

To show the help message with all the parameters and descriptions, run:

bunnet migrate --help

Migration types

Migration class contains instructions - decorated functions. There are two types of instructions:

  • Iterative migration - instruction that iterates over all the documents of the input_document collection and updates it. Most convenient to use, should be used in 99% cases.
  • Free fall migrations - instruction where user can write any logic. Most flexible, but verbose.

Iterative migrations

To mark a function as iterative migration, @iterative_migration() decorator must be used. The function itself must accept typed input_document and output_document arguments. Like here:

@iterative_migration()
def name_to_title(
        self, input_document: OldNote, output_document: Note
):

A simple example of field name changing

There are the next models:

class Tag(BaseModel):
    color: str
    name: str


class OldNote(Document):
    name: str
    tag: Tag

    class Settings:
        name = "notes"


class Note(Document):
    title: str
    tag: Tag

    class Settings:
        name = "notes"

To migrate from OldNote to Note, file name has to be renamed to title.

Forward migration:

class Forward:
    @iterative_migration()
    def name_to_title(
            self, input_document: OldNote, output_document: Note
    ):
        output_document.title = input_document.name

Backward migration:

class Backward:
    @iterative_migration()
    def title_to_name(
            self, input_document: Note, output_document: OldNote
    ):
        output_document.name = input_document.title

And a little more complex example:

from pydantic.main import BaseModel

from bunnet import Document, iterative_migration


class OldTag(BaseModel):
    color: str
    name: str


class Tag(BaseModel):
    color: str
    title: str


class OldNote(Document):
    title: str
    tag: OldTag

    class Settings:
        name = "notes"


class Note(Document):
    title: str
    tag: Tag

    class Settings:
        name = "notes"


class Forward:
    @iterative_migration()
    def change_color(
            self, input_document: OldNote, output_document: Note
    ):
        output_document.tag.title = input_document.tag.name


class Backward:
    @iterative_migration()
    def change_title(
            self, input_document: Note, output_document: OldNote
    ):
        output_document.tag.name = input_document.tag.title

Free fall migrations

It is a much more flexible migration type, which allows the implementation of any migration logic. But at the same time, it is more verbose.

To mark function as a free fall migration, @free_fall_migration() decorator with the list of Document classes must be used. Function itself accepts session as an argument. It is used in order to roll back the migration in case something has gone wrong. To be able to roll back, please pass session to the Documents methods. Like here:

@free_fall_migration(document_models=[OldNote, Note])
def name_to_title(self, session):
    for old_note in OldNote.find_all():
        new_note = Note(
            id=old_note.id, title=old_note.name, tag=old_note.tag
        )
        new_note.replace(session=session)

The same example as for the iterative migration, but with free fall migration type

from pydantic.main import BaseModel

from bunnet import Document, free_fall_migration


class Tag(BaseModel):
    color: str
    name: str


class OldNote(Document):
    name: str
    tag: Tag

    class Settings:
        name = "notes"


class Note(Document):
    title: str
    tag: Tag

    class Settings:
        name = "notes"


class Forward:
    @free_fall_migration(document_models=[OldNote, Note])
    def name_to_title(self, session):
        for old_note in OldNote.find_all():
            new_note = Note(
                id=old_note.id, title=old_note.name, tag=old_note.tag
            )
            new_note.replace(session=session)


class Backward:
    @free_fall_migration(document_models=[OldNote, Note])
    def title_to_name(self, session):
        for old_note in Note.find_all():
            new_note = OldNote(
                id=old_note.id, name=old_note.title, tag=old_note.tag
            )
            new_note.replace(session=session)
