Creating a seed data migration
|
|
==============================
|
|
|
|
.. contents:: Table of contents

|
|
Use case
|
|
^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
It can be convenient to add some seed data into tables as part of the DB init
|
|
process.
|
|
|
|
Step 1: Run the console via the Hasura CLI
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
In order to make sure that the migrations get created, the console needs to be
|
|
run via the Hasura CLI.
|
|
|
|
Step 2: Navigate to the SQL section
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
On the Hasura console, click on the ``Data`` tab and then on the ``SQL`` link on
|
|
the left hand side.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Step 3: Write an insert statement
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
The next step is to write an insert statement that populates the database with
|
|
seed data, like this:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: SQL
|
|
|
|
INSERT INTO addresses (id, location) VALUES
|
|
(1, 'Bangalore'),
|
|
(2, 'Tel Aviv'),
|
|
(3, 'Zurich');
|
|
INSERT INTO authors (id, name, address_id) VALUES
|
|
(1, 'Sarah', 3),
|
|
(2, 'Joey', 1),
|
|
(3, 'Rachel', 2);
|
|
INSERT INTO articles (id, title, content, author_id) VALUES
|
|
(1, 'How to make fajitas', 'Recipe on making the best fajitas in the world', 1),
|
|
(2, 'How to climb mount everest', 'Guide on successfully climbing the hightest mountain in the world', 3),
|
|
(3, 'How to be successful on broadway', 'What it takes for you to be a successful performer at broadway', 2);
|
|
|
|
Step 4: Mark the insert as a migration
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
Check the box ``This is a migration`` and give the migration a name, e.g. ``insert_seed_data``.
|
|
|
|
Step 5: Run the statement
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
Hit the ``Run!`` button.
|
|
|
|
Step 6: Verify data & migration
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
If the insert statement was successful, the data is now added to the DB.
|
|
|
|
Navigate to the ``migrations`` directory in your Hasura project. The latest migration
|
|
will be the the insert statement that was just run.
