Gorm: Automigrate all structs automatically

Created on 2 Jan 2014 · 3Comments · Source: go-gorm/gorm

Is it possible to automigrate all structs automatically?

Currently it seems like the name of each struct to migrate needs to be passed to this function https://github.com/jinzhu/gorm/blob/690cb1430c2e27011324c51826301a7daf728e65/main.go#L261

Because gorm can't know which struct you want to migrate, so can't do this automatically.

But I am doing something like this in my application.

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    . "xxx.com/xxxx/xxxx/app/models"
    . "xxx.com/xxxx/xxxx/db"
    "reflect"
)

func main() {
    for _, model := range []interface{}{
        Payment{}, Invoice{}, Transaction{},
        SubscriptionService{}, SubscriptionBenefit{}, Subscription{},
        Address{}, User{}, UserService{},
        Service{},
    } {
        if err := DB.AutoMigrate(model).Error; err != nil {
            fmt.Println(err)
        } else {
            fmt.Println("Auto migrating", reflect.TypeOf(model).Name(), "...")
        }
    }
}
