README

This is a Database Migrations system for CakePHP.

The plugin consists of a CakePHP CLI wrapper for the Phinx migrations library.

This branch is for use with CakePHP 5.x. See version map for details.

Installation

You can install this plugin into your CakePHP application using Composer.

Run the following command

composer require cakephp/migrations

Configuration

You can load the plugin using the shell command:

bin/cake plugin load Migrations

Or you can manually add the loading statement in the src/Application.php file of your application:

public function bootstrap(): void
{
    parent::bootstrap();
    $this->addPlugin('Migrations');
}

Enabling the builtin backend

In a future release, migrations will be switching to a new backend based on the CakePHP ORM. We're aiming to be compatible with as many existing migrations as possible, and could use your feedback. Enable the new backend with:

// in app/config/app_local.php
$config = [
    // Other configuration
    'Migrations' => ['backend' => 'builtin'],
];

Documentation

Full documentation of the plugin can be found on the CakePHP Cookbook.
