Master database schema and data migrations across ORMs (Sequelize, TypeORM, Prisma), including rollback strategies and zero-downtime deployments.

## Do not use this skill when

- The task is unrelated to database migration
- You need a different domain or tool outside this scope

## Instructions

- Clarify goals, constraints, and required inputs.
- Apply relevant best practices and validate outcomes.
- Provide actionable steps and verification.
- If detailed examples are required, open `resources/implementation-playbook.md`.

## Use this skill when

- Migrating between different ORMs
- Performing schema transformations
- Moving data between databases
- Implementing rollback procedures
- Zero-downtime deployments
- Database version upgrades
- Data model refactoring

## ORM Migrations

### Sequelize Migrations
```javascript
// migrations/20231201-create-users.js
module.exports = {
  up: async (queryInterface, Sequelize) => {
    await queryInterface.createTable('users', {
      id: {
        type: Sequelize.INTEGER,
        primaryKey: true,
        autoIncrement: true
      },
      email: {
        type: Sequelize.STRING,
        unique: true,
        allowNull: false
      },
      createdAt: Sequelize.DATE,
      updatedAt: Sequelize.DATE
    });
  },

  down: async (queryInterface, Sequelize) => {
    await queryInterface.dropTable('users');
  }
};

// Run: npx sequelize-cli db:migrate
// Rollback: npx sequelize-cli db:migrate:undo
```

### TypeORM Migrations
```typescript
// migrations/1701234567-CreateUsers.ts
import { MigrationInterface, QueryRunner, Table } from 'typeorm';

export class CreateUsers1701234567 implements MigrationInterface {
  public async up(queryRunner: QueryRunner): Promise<void> {
    await queryRunner.createTable(
      new Table({
        name: 'users',
        columns: [
          {
            name: 'id',
            type: 'int',
            isPrimary: true,
            isGenerated: true,
            generationStrategy: 'increment'
          },
          {
            name: 'email',
            type: 'varchar',
            isUnique: true
          },
          {
            name: 'created_at',
            type: 'timestamp',
            default: 'CURRENT_TIMESTAMP'
          }
        ]
      })
    );
  }

  public async down(queryRunner: QueryRunner): Promise<void> {
    await queryRunner.dropTable('users');
  }
}

// Run: npm run typeorm migration:run
// Rollback: npm run typeorm migration:revert
```

### Prisma Migrations
```prisma
// schema.prisma
model User {
  id        Int      @id @default(autoincrement())
  email     String   @unique
  createdAt DateTime @default(now())
}

// Generate migration: npx prisma migrate dev --name create_users
// Apply: npx prisma migrate deploy
```

## Schema Transformations

### Adding Columns with Defaults
```javascript
// Safe migration: add column with default
module.exports = {
  up: async (queryInterface, Sequelize) => {
    await queryInterface.addColumn('users', 'status', {
      type: Sequelize.STRING,
      defaultValue: 'active',
      allowNull: false
    });
  },

  down: async (queryInterface) => {
    await queryInterface.removeColumn('users', 'status');
  }
};
```

### Renaming Columns (Zero Downtime)
```javascript
// Step 1: Add new column
module.exports = {
  up: async (queryInterface, Sequelize) => {
    await queryInterface.addColumn('users', 'full_name', {
      type: Sequelize.STRING
    });

    // Copy data from old column
    await queryInterface.sequelize.query(
      'UPDATE users SET full_name = name'
    );
  },

  down: async (queryInterface) => {
    await queryInterface.removeColumn('users', 'full_name');
  }
};

// Step 2: Update application to use new column

// Step 3: Remove old column
module.exports = {
  up: async (queryInterface) => {
    await queryInterface.removeColumn('users', 'name');
  },

  down: async (queryInterface, Sequelize) => {
    await queryInterface.addColumn('users', 'name', {
      type: Sequelize.STRING
    });
  }
};
```

### Changing Column Types
```javascript
module.exports = {
  up: async (queryInterface, Sequelize) => {
    // For large tables, use multi-step approach

    // 1. Add new column
    await queryInterface.addColumn('users', 'age_new', {
      type: Sequelize.INTEGER
    });

    // 2. Copy and transform data
    await queryInterface.sequelize.query(`
      UPDATE users
      SET age_new = CAST(age AS INTEGER)
      WHERE age IS NOT NULL
    `);

    // 3. Drop old column
    await queryInterface.removeColumn('users', 'age');

    // 4. Rename new column
    await queryInterface.renameColumn('users', 'age_new', 'age');
  },

  down: async (queryInterface, Sequelize) => {
    await queryInterface.changeColumn('users', 'age', {
      type: Sequelize.STRING
    });
  }
};
```

## Data Transformations

### Complex Data Migration
```javascript
module.exports = {
  up: async (queryInterface, Sequelize) => {
    // Get all records
    const [users] = await queryInterface.sequelize.query(
      'SELECT id, address_string FROM users'
    );

    // Transform each record
    for (const user of users) {
      const addressParts = user.address_string.split(',');

      await queryInterface.sequelize.query(
        `UPDATE users
         SET street = :street,
             city = :city,
             state = :state
         WHERE id = :id`,
        {
          replacements: {
            id: user.id,
            street: addressParts[0]?.trim(),
            city: addressParts[1]?.trim(),
            state: addressParts[2]?.trim()
          }
        }
      );
    }

    // Drop old column
    await queryInterface.removeColumn('users', 'address_string');
  },

  down: async (queryInterface, Sequelize) => {
    // Reconstruct original column
    await queryInterface.addColumn('users', 'address_string', {
      type: Sequelize.STRING
    });

    await queryInterface.sequelize.query(`
      UPDATE users
      SET address_string = CONCAT(street, ', ', city, ', ', state)
    `);

    await queryInterface.removeColumn('users', 'street');
    await queryInterface.removeColumn('users', 'city');
    await queryInterface.removeColumn('users', 'state');
  }
};
```

## Rollback Strategies

### Transaction-Based Migrations
```javascript
module.exports = {
  up: async (queryInterface, Sequelize) => {
    const transaction = await queryInterface.sequelize.transaction();

    try {
      await queryInterface.addColumn(
        'users',
        'verified',
        { type: Sequelize.BOOLEAN, defaultValue: false },
        { transaction }
      );

      await queryInterface.sequelize.query(
        'UPDATE users SET verified = true WHERE email_verified_at IS NOT NULL',
        { transaction }
      );

      await transaction.commit();
    } catch (error) {
      await transaction.rollback();
      throw error;
    }
  },

  down: async (queryInterface) => {
    await queryInterface.removeColumn('users', 'verified');
  }
};
```

### Checkpoint-Based Rollback
```javascript
module.exports = {
  up: async (queryInterface, Sequelize) => {
    // Create backup table
    await queryInterface.sequelize.query(
      'CREATE TABLE users_backup AS SELECT * FROM users'
    );

    try {
      // Perform migration
      await queryInterface.addColumn('users', 'new_field', {
        type: Sequelize.STRING
      });

      // Verify migration
      const [result] = await queryInterface.sequelize.query(
        "SELECT COUNT(*) as count FROM users WHERE new_field IS NULL"
      );

      if (result[0].count > 0) {
        throw new Error('Migration verification failed');
      }

      // Drop backup
      await queryInterface.dropTable('users_backup');
    } catch (error) {
      // Restore from backup
      await queryInterface.sequelize.query('DROP TABLE users');
      await queryInterface.sequelize.query(
        'CREATE TABLE users AS SELECT * FROM users_backup'
      );
      await queryInterface.dropTable('users_backup');
      throw error;
    }
  }
};
```

## Zero-Downtime Migrations

### Blue-Green Deployment Strategy
```javascript
// Phase 1: Make changes backward compatible
module.exports = {
  up: async (queryInterface, Sequelize) => {
    // Add new column (both old and new code can work)
    await queryInterface.addColumn('users', 'email_new', {
      type: Sequelize.STRING
    });
  }
};

// Phase 2: Deploy code that writes to both columns

// Phase 3: Backfill data
module.exports = {
  up: async (queryInterface) => {
    await queryInterface.sequelize.query(`
      UPDATE users
      SET email_new = email
      WHERE email_new IS NULL
    `);
  }
};

// Phase 4: Deploy code that reads from new column

// Phase 5: Remove old column
module.exports = {
  up: async (queryInterface) => {
    await queryInterface.removeColumn('users', 'email');
  }
};
```

## Cross-Database Migrations

### PostgreSQL to MySQL
```javascript
// Handle differences
module.exports = {
  up: async (queryInterface, Sequelize) => {
    const dialectName = queryInterface.sequelize.getDialect();

    if (dialectName === 'mysql') {
      await queryInterface.createTable('users', {
        id: {
          type: Sequelize.INTEGER,
          primaryKey: true,
          autoIncrement: true
        },
        data: {
          type: Sequelize.JSON  // MySQL JSON type
        }
      });
    } else if (dialectName === 'postgres') {
      await queryInterface.createTable('users', {
        id: {
          type: Sequelize.INTEGER,
          primaryKey: true,
          autoIncrement: true
        },
        data: {
          type: Sequelize.JSONB  // PostgreSQL JSONB type
        }
      });
    }
  }
};
```

- **assets/schema-migration-template.sql**: SQL migration templates
- **assets/data-migration-script.py**: Data migration utilities
- **scripts/test-migration.sh**: Migration testing script

## Best Practices

1. **Always Provide Rollback**: Every up() needs a down()
2. **Test Migrations**: Test on staging first
3. **Use Transactions**: Atomic migrations when possible
4. **Backup First**: Always backup before migration
5. **Small Changes**: Break into small, incremental steps
6. **Monitor**: Watch for errors during deployment
7. **Document**: Explain why and how
8. **Idempotent**: Migrations should be rerunnable

## Common Pitfalls

- Not testing rollback procedures
- Making breaking changes without downtime strategy
- Forgetting to handle NULL values
- Not considering index performance
- Ignoring foreign key constraints
- Migrating too much data at once
