Migrating/Seeding Page Types

sumentuten - 2 years ago

Hi guys! Been trying out PyroCMS3 for a week now. And I've created my Page Types locally, assigning fields and creating templates for them. And now I have to migrate them to my staging server. What is the best way to do this? Can this be done using the streams platform? How?

You can set these up as a seed in some cases that may be what you want to do - but for migration to stage / remote I usually do this:

  • Mark remote as INSTALLED=false in .env
  • Import DB
  • php artisan streams:compile
  • Mark remote as INSTALLED=true again.

That will effectively push everything up (be sure to upload your file uploads too).

We're investigating stashing migrations for everything in the system but.. not entirely sure what that looks like right now.
