I think its better to do migrations like the polls plugin. I created a migration and model generator for plugins: [GitHub - spirobel/discourse at plugin\_model\_and\_migrations](https://github.com/spirobel/discourse/tree/plugin_model_and_migrations) It puts the migration files at the same spot like in the polls plugin.
