Add MySql support

Open Ranger2959 opened this issue 7 years ago • 1 comments

After reading a bunch about StackOverflow's DB migration process, I started writing one based on the blog posts I could find, until I found out about this repo. I'm mainly using MySql in my projects now, so I wanted a version of this migrator for MySql, so that's what this pull request is.

Let me know what you think and i'm open to any suggestions you have about the implementation.

Hey, I haven't meant to ignore this for so long. I just have no time to maintain this library at the moment. I started a complete redesign at one point because I wasn't particularly happy with the initial design, but I ran out of free time. It's different enough that if I ever finish it, I probably shouldn't even call it Mayflower.

So, in essence, I'm saying I don't have time to work on this library, and if I did, I'd be working on a replacement, instead of improving the existing code. If you're interested enough, I could make you a maintainer.

At a glance, your changes look good, except for how you deleted the sample SQL Server files. There's also a part of me that feels like a solution which was extensible, and would result in different libraries for different db providers would probably be better than pulling every database in as a dependency. However, that is also more work, and I don't have the time to care much at this point.
