fix-db-schema-conflicts
Advanced tools
It prevents db/schema.rb conflicts in your Rails projects when working with multiple team members.
Specifically the situation that goes like this:
John is working on a feature, and adds a migration to create an updated_at
timestamp to Task. Sara is working on a different feature, and adds a
migration to create a name column to Task. They both run their migrations
locally, and then get a new copy of master with the other's feature and
migration. Then when they run migrations again, John's tasks table looks like
this:
t.timestamp :updated_at
t.string :name
And Sara's looks like this:
t.string :name
t.timestamp :updated_at
And every time they run migrations before committing new code, their
db/schema.rb file will be showing a change, because they are flipping the
order of the columns.
By using the fix-db-schema-conflicts gem, this problem goes away.
This gem sorts the table, index, extension, and foreign key names before outputting them to the schema.rb file. Additionally it runs Rubocop with the auto-correct flag to ensure a consistent output format.
You don't have to do anything different. It should just work. Simply run rake db:migrate or rake db:schema:dump as you would before and
fix-db-schema-conflicts will do the rest.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile in your development group:
gem 'fix-db-schema-conflicts'
And then execute:
$ bundle
If you wish to use a version of Rubocop < 0.36.0 or below, use
gem 'fix-db-schema-conflicts', '~> 1.0.2'
This gem only works with Ruby >= 2.2. Use versions 1.2.2 or below if you have an old Ruby.
