Change Key Type Migration

This migration is used when you want to change the type on of data stored in a column but you can't because it is referenced by other foreign key constraints. I came across this problem when trying to update the primary key on my users table from unsigned integer to unsigned big integer.

Usage

<?php

use Kingga\LaravelMigrations\ChangeKeyTypeMigration;

class MigrationNameHere extends ChangeKeyTypeMigration
{
    /**
     * {@inheritDoc}
     */
    protected function getTable(): string
    {
        return 'users';
    }

    /**
     * {@inheritDoc}
     */
    protected function getColumn(): string
    {
        return 'id';
    }

    /**
     * {@inheritDoc}
     */
    protected function getFrom(): array
    {
        // These methods are used on the 'down' method.
        // 0 => parent.id->increments, foreign.user_id->unsignedInteger.
        return ['increments', 'unsignedInteger'];
    }

    /**
     * {@inheritDoc}
     */
    protected function getTo(): array
    {
        // These methods are used on the 'up' method.
        // 0 => parent.id->bigIncrements, foreign.user_id->unsignedBigIncrements.
        return ['bigIncrements', 'unsignedBigIncrements'];
    }
}

This will keep the nullable and size information when changing the column as well as the update and delete rules on the constraint.
