Orchard Core Data Migrations - Prompt Templates
Create Data Migrations
You are an Orchard Core expert. Generate data migration code for Orchard Core modules.
Guidelines
- Data migrations inherit from
DataMigration. - Migrations define content types, parts, fields, and database indexes.
- Use
CreateAsync()for initial migration,UpdateFrom1Async(),UpdateFrom2Async()for incremental updates. - Register migrations in
Startup.csusingservices.AddScoped<IDataMigration, Migrations>(). IContentDefinitionManageris used to define content types and parts.SchemaBuilderis used to create and alter YesSql index tables.- Always seal classes.
Basic Migration with Content Type
using OrchardCore.ContentManagement.Metadata;
using OrchardCore.ContentManagement.Metadata.Settings;
using OrchardCore.Data.Migration;
public sealed class Migrations : DataMigration
{
private readonly IContentDefinitionManager _contentDefinitionManager;
public Migrations(IContentDefinitionManager contentDefinitionManager)
{
_contentDefinitionManager = contentDefinitionManager;
}
public async Task<int> CreateAsync()
{
await _contentDefinitionManager.AlterTypeDefinitionAsync("{{ContentType}}", type => type
.DisplayedAs("{{DisplayName}}")
.Creatable()
.Listable()
.Draftable()
.Versionable()
.WithPart("TitlePart", part => part.WithPosition("0"))
.WithPart("AutoroutePart", part => part
.WithPosition("1")
.WithSettings(new AutoroutePartSettings
{
AllowCustomPath = true,
Pattern = "{{ ContentItem | display_text | slugify }}"
})
)
.WithPart("HtmlBodyPart", part => part
.WithPosition("2")
.WithEditor("Wysiwyg")
)
.WithPart("{{ContentType}}Part", part => part.WithPosition("3"))
);
return 1;
}
}
Migration with Custom Content Part and Fields
public sealed class Migrations : DataMigration
{
private readonly IContentDefinitionManager _contentDefinitionManager;
public Migrations(IContentDefinitionManager contentDefinitionManager)
{
_contentDefinitionManager = contentDefinitionManager;
}
public async Task<int> CreateAsync()
{
// Define the custom part with fields
await _contentDefinitionManager.AlterPartDefinitionAsync("{{PartName}}", part => part
.WithField("{{FieldName}}", field => field
.OfType("TextField")
.WithDisplayName("{{FieldDisplayName}}")
.WithPosition("0")
.WithSettings(new TextFieldSettings
{
Required = true,
Hint = "{{FieldHint}}"
})
)
.WithField("Description", field => field
.OfType("TextField")
.WithDisplayName("Description")
.WithPosition("1")
.WithEditor("TextArea")
)
.WithField("Image", field => field
.OfType("MediaField")
.WithDisplayName("Image")
.WithPosition("2")
)
);
// Define the content type with the custom part
await _contentDefinitionManager.AlterTypeDefinitionAsync("{{ContentType}}", type => type
.DisplayedAs("{{DisplayName}}")
.Creatable()
.Listable()
.WithPart("TitlePart", part => part.WithPosition("0"))
.WithPart("{{PartName}}", part => part.WithPosition("1"))
);
return 1;
}
}
Migration with YesSql Index Table
using OrchardCore.Data.Migration;
using YesSql.Sql;
public sealed class Migrations : DataMigration
{
public async Task<int> CreateAsync()
{
await SchemaBuilder.CreateMapIndexTableAsync<{{IndexName}}>(table => table
.Column<string>(nameof({{IndexName}}.ContentItemId), col => col.WithLength(26))
.Column<string>(nameof({{IndexName}}.{{PropertyName}}), col => col.WithLength(256))
.Column<bool>(nameof({{IndexName}}.Published))
.Column<DateTime>(nameof({{IndexName}}.CreatedUtc))
);
await SchemaBuilder.AlterIndexTableAsync<{{IndexName}}>(table => table
.CreateIndex(
"IDX_{{IndexName}}_{{PropertyName}}",
nameof({{IndexName}}.{{PropertyName}}),
nameof({{IndexName}}.Published)
)
);
return 1;
}
}
Incremental Migration (UpdateFrom)
public sealed class Migrations : DataMigration
{
private readonly IContentDefinitionManager _contentDefinitionManager;
public Migrations(IContentDefinitionManager contentDefinitionManager)
{
_contentDefinitionManager = contentDefinitionManager;
}
public async Task<int> CreateAsync()
{
// Initial migration
await _contentDefinitionManager.AlterTypeDefinitionAsync("{{ContentType}}", type => type
.DisplayedAs("{{DisplayName}}")
.Creatable()
.Listable()
.WithPart("TitlePart")
);
return 1;
}
public async Task<int> UpdateFrom1Async()
{
// Add a new field in version 2
await _contentDefinitionManager.AlterPartDefinitionAsync("{{ContentType}}", part => part
.WithField("Category", field => field
.OfType("TextField")
.WithDisplayName("Category")
.WithPosition("2")
)
);
return 2;
}
public async Task<int> UpdateFrom2Async()
{
// Add an index table in version 3
await SchemaBuilder.CreateMapIndexTableAsync<{{ContentType}}Index>(table => table
.Column<string>("ContentItemId", col => col.WithLength(26))
.Column<string>("Category", col => col.WithLength(256))
.Column<bool>("Published")
);
return 3;
}
}
Registering Migrations and Indexes
using OrchardCore.Data.Migration;
using YesSql.Indexes;
public sealed class Startup : StartupBase
{
public override void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
services.AddScoped<IDataMigration, Migrations>();
services.AddIndexProvider<{{IndexName}}Provider>();
}
}
Uninstall Migration
Handle cleanup when a feature is disabled:
public sealed class Migrations : DataMigration
{
public async Task UninstallAsync()
{
await SchemaBuilder.DropMapIndexTableAsync<{{IndexName}}>();
}
}
Recommended Agent Skills
Expand your agent's capabilities with these related and highly-rated skills.
agent-ops-spec
Manage specification documents in .agent/specs/. Use when user provides requirements, acceptance criteria, or feature descriptions that need to be tracked and validated against implementation.
agent-ops-state
Maintain .agent state files. Use at session start, after meaningful steps, and before concluding: read/update constitution/memory/focus/issues/baseline consistently.
agent-ops-spec
Manage specification documents in .agent/specs/. Use when user provides requirements, acceptance criteria, or feature descriptions that need to be tracked and validated against implementation.
agent-ops-testing
Test strategy, execution, and coverage analysis. Use when designing tests, running test suites, or analyzing test results beyond baseline checks.
