Aerich is a database migration tool for TortoiseORM, similar to Alembic for SQLAlchemy or Django's built-in migrations. It provides a CLI to generate, apply, and roll back schema migrations for MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQLite databases.

Use cases

  • manage tortoise orm database migrations
  • generate migration files from tortoise orm models
  • upgrade and downgrade database schema versions
  • introspect existing database tables into tortoise models
  • initialize migration folders for a tortoise orm project

When to choose

  • you use TortoiseORM and need versioned schema migrations
  • you want Alembic-like or Django-like migration workflows for an async Python ORM
  • you need to roll back database schema changes safely

When to avoid

  • you use SQLAlchemy (use Alembic instead)
  • you use TortoiseORM >= 1.0.0, which has built-in migration CLI support
  • you need migrations for ORMs other than TortoiseORM
