Is there an automatic way of running the database migration for a custom plugin if it has not already been run? Instead of manually running a DB migration in a fresh Discourse installation?

How are you running Discourse? This should be covered if you’re using our docker installation.

Running the Discourse development environment

You don’t run migrations from within a plugin. In a Dev environment you perform them from the console. Why? Because when you deploy a plugin the migrations are taken care of by the host app. It’s out of scope of what a plugin should do. (FYI that’s not to say you don’t include migrations within…

That’s correct, I am using the console to run the migrations in the development environment. My question is that is this the way forward and do I also have to run these manually in the console for a production docker environment?

[image] bstgmr02: do I also have to run these manually in the console for a production docker environment? That would be done automatically as part of a (re)build.

Cela serait fait automatiquement dans le cadre d’une reconstruction (ou d’une nouvelle construction).
