SQL: Use a migration framework

[airtonix 7]

Please, in your server releases, make use of a migration tool.

• https://www.npmjs.com/package/migrit
• https://www.npmjs.com/package/db-migrate

Hardcoding file names to run against mysql is very fragile.

 

$ migrate ./migrations up

much better.

Everyone already has a mysql database, adding a requirement for further software to implement changes would just cause further complications for inexperienced users.

The other reason for not using this is that the vast majority of Arma servers are Windows based.

I have MySQL servers since over 15 years and NEVER was in use of migration tools nor ever see it is "fragile" but there is always someone out....
