# Jun 13th 2019, 15:29 noel yes, it was created and it looks correct
# Jun 13th 2019, 15:29 ricksaccous to assure your migration was created?
# Jun 13th 2019, 15:29 ricksaccous did you end up checking your config/Migrations folder
# Jun 13th 2019, 15:27 noel oops.. repeat message
# Jun 13th 2019, 15:27 noel Not really understanding migrations. I created a migration from my db using `bin/cake bake migration_snapshot`, then I cleared my db to test the migration and ran `bin/cake migrations migrate`
# Jun 13th 2019, 15:25 admad When you need to work with large number of records like for e.g. bulk updates use the db layer directly instead of ORM
# Jun 13th 2019, 15:24 admad @val it's not a "problem". Just how PHP works. Objects take more memory than arrays. You shouldn't be pulling/creating 153000 entities at a time.
# Jun 13th 2019, 15:24 chris-andre @val Just a input: you can use `->enableHyadration(false)` to return array results.
# Jun 13th 2019, 15:21 neon1024 Do you have debug mode on? That will increase memory usage quite a bit
# Jun 13th 2019, 15:20 neon1024 Also, an entity is an object
# Jun 13th 2019, 15:18 neon1024 Collections didn’t exist in Cake 2 though
# Jun 13th 2019, 15:13 val Hi, I just discovered that Cake 3.x Entity objects use 2 times more memory than Cake 2.x associative arrays and 4 times more memory than plain PHP objects. Tested with 153000 items collection. Is it a known problem? Are there any plans to improve memory usage? https://gist.github.com/nikic/5015323
# Jun 13th 2019, 14:41 swimboy And thanks, using 4.x-dev worked perfectly.
# Jun 13th 2019, 14:40 swimboy I have an app that I’ve built in 3.7, and have a short-term need for a small subset of it as a separate app. I figured it would be a good test-case for the alpha release.
# Jun 13th 2019, 14:39 neon1024 I should upgrade my test app to alpha2 also! Good reminder
# Jun 13th 2019, 14:39 neon1024 But as you say we’ve no idea what @swimboy is trying out! Good job testing the alphas though :thumbsup:
# Jun 13th 2019, 14:38 neon1024 I prefer it for testing the release as it’s a fixed point for the core team to work from, whereas a commit hash can be a little more frustrating I think
# Jun 13th 2019, 14:38 dereuromark if its just about testing things this would be fine
# Jun 13th 2019, 14:38 neon1024 https://semver.mwl.be/#?package=cakephp%2Fcakephpandversion=4.0.0-alpha2andminimum-stability=alpha
# Jun 13th 2019, 14:38 dereuromark you could also just use 4.x-dev :slightly_smiling_face: I do that
# Jun 13th 2019, 14:36 neon1024 Don’t you need to specify special releases exactly?
# Jun 13th 2019, 14:33 swimboy Is there a reason that I can install 4.0.0-alpha1 via composer, but not alpha2? I used the command `composer create-project --prefer-dist cakephp/app:4.0.0-alpha1 myproject`. And even `composer update` won’t pick up alpha2 from an installation of alpha1.
# Jun 13th 2019, 14:29 ricksaccous what lars said
# Jun 13th 2019, 14:29 ricksaccous yeah
# Jun 13th 2019, 14:28 ricksaccous you need the NameOfMigration
# Jun 13th 2019, 14:28 lars.ebert If it is empty or contains no commands, then something went wrong when creating the migration.
# Jun 13th 2019, 14:28 ricksaccous to the bin/cake bake migration_snapshot NAmeOfMigration
# Jun 13th 2019, 14:28 lars.ebert @noel Take a look into the config/migrations folder. There you should see a file for your migration snapshot. If you open that file, you should see the migration that `bake` created for you.
# Jun 13th 2019, 14:28 ricksaccous are you sure the migration was even created in the first place because you are supposed to add an argument
# Jun 13th 2019, 14:26 ricksaccous seems your snapshot wasn't that good then i suppose
# Jun 13th 2019, 14:26 ricksaccous when he tried to run the migration again
# Jun 13th 2019, 14:26 ricksaccous if he deleted the whole db it should have worked
# Jun 13th 2019, 14:22 dereuromark use "migrations status" to check for details on each step
# Jun 13th 2019, 14:21 dereuromark or did you also clear those?
# Jun 13th 2019, 14:21 dereuromark they have been marked as migrated for a reason there
# Jun 13th 2019, 14:21 dereuromark you cant just remove/clear tables
# Jun 13th 2019, 14:11 noel Not really understanding migrations. I created a migration from my db using `bin/cake bake migration_snapshot`, then I cleared my db to test the migration and ran `bin/cake migrations migrate`, which reported success but no tables were created in the db?
# Jun 13th 2019, 13:25 dereuromark yeah thats why we use it :slightly_smiling_face: with an IDE it is even just single clicks.
# Jun 13th 2019, 13:23 noel It's quite useful if you're still designing and prototyping because sometimes table names changes and such.
# Jun 13th 2019, 13:22 noel It's fine I can use `git clean -df` instead.
# Jun 13th 2019, 13:15 dereuromark overwriting is more common here
