How to run Migration in laravel project for database

 1. Basic Migration:

• Assuming you have created migrations using php artisan make:migration MyMigrationName (replace with your desired name), run the following command to apply all pending migrations:

php artisan migrate

2. Specific Options:

• You can utilize various options with the migrate command:

  • --pretend: Simulates the migration process without actually making changes to the database (useful for testing).
  • --seed: Runs the database seeders after applying migrations (for adding initial data).
  • --force: Forces the migration to run even if there are potential risks like data loss. Use with caution!

Here are some examples:

php artisan migrate --pretend  # Simulate migration
php artisan migrate --seed      # Migrate and seed
php artisan migrate --force      # Force migration (use carefully)

3. Specific Migrations:

• To run a specific migration by its migration file name:

php artisan migrate --path=database/migrations/MyMigrationName.php

• Replace MyMigrationName.php with the actual filename of the migration you want to run.

4. Resetting Migrations:

• To completely rollback all migrations and start fresh:

php artisan migrate:reset

Remember:

• Ensure you have configured your database connection details correctly in the .env file before running any migrations.
• Refer to the Laravel documentation for more advanced options and detailed explanations: https://laravel.com/docs/10.x/migrations
