db-migrate

db-migrate is a robust database migration framework for Node.js, designed to manage schema changes across various SQL database systems. Its current stable version is 0.11.14, released in late 2019, with a `v1.0.0-beta.0` also from 2019. The project is currently in a maintenance phase, with ongoing commits to the GitHub repository but no new stable releases for several years. It supports a wide array of databases including PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, and MSSQL, requiring separate driver packages for each. A key differentiator is its dual interface: a powerful command-line tool for everyday use and a comprehensive programmatic API for deeper integration into application deployment and testing workflows. It ensures transactional integrity for migrations and offers clear 'up' and 'down' scripts for reliable schema evolution and rollback capabilities.
