# Legacy bot migration
Until the introduction of the database migration system around December 2019, migrations were done manually.
To bridge the gap between the `legacy` branch's database schema and something the modern migration system can work with, run the following SQL commands on the database:
```sql
-- Create the proxy_tag type
do $$ begin
create type proxy_tag as (
prefix text,
suffix text
);
exception when duplicate_object then null;
end $$;
-- Add new columns to `members`
alter table members add column IF NOT EXISTS display_name text;
alter table members add column IF NOT EXISTS proxy_tags proxy_tag[] not null default array[]::proxy_tag[];
alter table members add column IF NOT EXISTS keep_proxy bool not null default false;
-- Transfer member proxy tags from the `prefix` and `suffix` columns to the `proxy_tags` array
update members set proxy_tags = array[(members.prefix, members.suffix)]::proxy_tag[]
where members.prefix is not null or members.suffix is not null;
-- Add other columns
alter table messages add column IF NOT EXISTS original_mid bigint;
alter table servers add column IF NOT EXISTS log_blacklist bigint[] not null default array[]::bigint[];
alter table servers add column IF NOT EXISTS blacklist bigint[] not null default array[]::bigint[];
-- Drop old proxy tag columns
alter table members drop column IF EXISTS prefix cascade;
alter table members drop column IF EXISTS suffix cascade;
```
You should probably take a database backup before doing any of this.
The .NET version of the bot should pick up on any further migrations from this point :)

# Upgrading database from legacy version
There are a few adjustments to do for the new versions of PluralKit to work with a legacy PluralKit database :
* Dump the database (you never know what may happen !)
* Upgrade the database by firing those lines in psql (or by putting them in an sql file and giving it to postgres) :
```sql
do $$ begin
create type proxy_tag as (
prefix text,
suffix text
);
exception when duplicate_object then null;
end $$;
alter table members add column IF NOT EXISTS display_name text;
alter table members add column IF NOT EXISTS proxy_tags proxy_tag[] not null default array[]::proxy_tag[];
alter table members add column IF NOT EXISTS keep_proxy bool not null default false;
update members set proxy_tags = array[(members.prefix, members.suffix)]::proxy_tag[] where members.prefix is not null or members.suffix is not null;
alter table members drop column IF EXISTS prefix cascade;
alter table members drop column IF EXISTS suffix cascade;
alter table messages add column IF NOT EXISTS original_mid bigint;
alter table servers add column IF NOT EXISTS log_blacklist bigint[] not null default array[]::bigint[];
alter table servers add column IF NOT EXISTS blacklist bigint[] not null default array[]::bigint[];
```
* Start PluralKit and let it finish the automatic database upgrades
If you have an instance of the Python version of the bot (from the `legacy` branch), you may need to take extra database migration steps.
