migration-sandbox

When to Use

Run database migrations for SandboxRemote environment, apply pending EF Core migrations, create backups, and verify connectivity.

Prerequisites

.NET SDK installed (dotnet --version)
PostgreSQL accessible for SandboxRemote
Connection string in appsettings.SandboxRemote.json
scripts/safe-migrate.sh available and executable

Execution Steps

Step 1: Verify Script Exists and is Executable

Check: test -f scripts/safe-migrate.sh

If missing: Error and STOP

If not executable: chmod +x scripts/safe-migrate.sh

Step 2: Verify Environment Configuration

Check: test -f src/Managing.Api/appsettings.SandboxRemote.json

If missing: Check appsettings.Sandbox.json, else STOP

Step 3: Run Migration Script

Run: ./scripts/safe-migrate.sh SandboxRemote

Script performs: Build projects → Check connectivity → Create DB if needed → Prompt backup → Check pending changes → Generate script → Apply migrations → Verify status

On success: Show success message, backup location, log file location

On failure: Show error output, diagnose (connectivity, connection string, server status, permissions), provide guidance or STOP if unresolvable

Error Handling

Script not found: Check ls -la scripts/safe-migrate.sh, STOP if missing

Not executable: chmod +x scripts/safe-migrate.sh, retry

Database connection fails: Verify PostgreSQL running, check connection string in appsettings.SandboxRemote.json, verify network/firewall/credentials

Build fails: Show errors (C# compilation, missing dependencies, config errors), try auto-fix (compilation errors, imports, config), if fixed re-run else STOP

Migration conflicts: Review migration history, script handles idempotent migrations, schema conflicts may need manual intervention

Backup fails: Script warns, recommend fixing before proceeding, warn if proceeding without backup

Example Execution

Success flow:

Verify script → ✅
Check executable → ✅
Verify config → ✅
Run: ./scripts/safe-migrate.sh SandboxRemote
Script: Build → Connect → Backup → Generate → Apply → Verify → ✅
Show backup/log locations

Connection fails: Diagnose connection string/server, provide guidance, STOP

Build fails: Show errors, try auto-fix, if fixed re-run else STOP

Important Notes

✅ Backup recommended, script prompts for it
✅ Review migration script before applying
✅ Idempotent migrations - safe to run multiple times
