📄 How to use it?

BASIC: Create your migrations

import 'package:sqflite_migrator_plus/sqflite_migrator_plus.dart';

// create_table_products
class Migration_202505091026_CreateTableProducts extends MigrationPlus {
  @override
  Future<void> execute(Database db) async {
    await db.execute('''
      CREATE TABLE products (
        id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,
        product_name TEXT
      )
    ''');
  }
}

// add_price_to_products
class Migration_202505101415_AddPriceToProducts extends MigrationPlus {
  @override
  Future<void> execute(Database db) async {
    await db.execute('ALTER TABLE products ADD COLUMN price REAL DEFAULT 0');
  }
}

final List<MigrationPlus> migrations = [
  Migration_202505091026_CreateTableProducts(),
  Migration_202505101415_AddPriceToProducts(),
];

PROGRAMMATIC: Create your migrations

With programmatic way you use our "SQL Statement Generator"

• CreateTableGenerator
• AlterTableGenerator

Making easier for you to construct your migrations without having to write SQL statements manually.

import 'package:sqflite_common/sqlite_api.dart';
import 'package:sqflite_migrator_plus/sqflite_migrator_plus.dart';

// create table products
class Migration_202505261951_create_table_products extends MigrationPlus {
  @override
  Future<void> execute(Database db) {
    List<ColumnDef> columns = [
      ColumnDef(columnName: 'id', type: ColumnTypes.integer, isPrimaryKey: true, isAutoIncrement: true),
      ColumnDef(columnName: 'product_name', type: ColumnTypes.text),
    ];

    var generator = CreateTableGenerator('products', columns);
    var strSqlList = generator.getSqlStatements();

    for (String strSql in strSqlList) {
      await db.execute(strSql);
    }
  }
}

// add_price_to_products
class Migration_202505262211_add_price_table_products extends MigrationPlus {
  @override
  Future<void> execute(Database db) {
    List<ColumnDef> columns = [
      ColumnDef(alterColumnType: AlterColumnType.add, columnName: 'price', type: ColumnTypes.numeric, defaultValue: '0'),
      ColumnDef(alterColumnType: AlterColumnType.add, columnName: 'category_id', type: ColumnTypes.numeric),
    ];

    var generator = AlterTableGenerator('products', columns);
    var strSqlList = generator.getSqlStatements();

    for (String strSql in strSqlList) {
      await db.execute(strSql);
    }
  }
}

// create index
class Migration_202505281425_create_index_category_id_table_products extends MigrationPlus {
  @override
  Future<void> execute(Database db) {
    var indexGen = CreateIndexGenerator(
      onTableName: 'products',
      unique: false,
      indexedColumns: ['category_id'],
    );

    return db.execute(generator.getSqlStatement());

    /* if you run the CreateIndexGenerator after the CreateTableGenerator
       follow this  example:

      List<ColumnDef> columns = [
        ...
      ];

      var generator = CreateTableGenerator('products', columns);
      var strSqlList = generator.getSqlStatements();

      var indexGen = CreateIndexGenerator(
        onTableName: 'products',
        unique: false,
        indexedColumns: ['category_id'],
      );

      strSqlList.add(indexGen.getSqlStatement());

      for (String strSql in strSqlList) {
        await db.execute(strSql);
      }
    */
  }
}

final List<MigrationPlus> migrations = [
  Migration_202505261951_create_table_products(),
  Migration_202505262211_add_price_table_products(),
  Migration_202505281425_create_index_category_id_table_products(),
];

METHOD INITIALIZER: Using the Initializer

final dbMigratorInitializer = DbMigratorInitializer(dbName: "my_database.db", migrations: migrations);
final Database db = await dbMigratorInitializer.openAndRunMigrations();

To keep in mind with the Initializer

IMPORTANT: Always add new migrations to the end of the list, never in the middle.

METHOD RUNNER: Using the Runner

The runner creates the table 'migrations' to track migrations.

This way allows you to insert the new migration into any position of list.

Of course, you can check which migrations have been run.

final Database db = await openDatabase("my_database.db");
final DbMigratorRunner runner = DbMigratorRunner(migrationList: migrations);
await runner.runMigrations(db);

Access your tables as usual

await db.insert("products", {"product_name": "Laptop Gamer", "price": 849.99});
List<Map<String, dynamic>> products = await db.query("products");
print(products);

Smart and easy

🔹 Don't loose your data on app updates

🔹 Update your table schemas programmatically

🔹 Runs needed migrtations only
