I'm trying to add Flyway to a Spring Boot project. In accordance with the instructions, I've created my initial DDL script and committed it to src/main/resources/db/migration/V1__base_version.sql.
If I run the baseline command, this will create the flyway_schema_history table and set the baseline version therein to 1.
While this works fine for my local database, I would like this to happen automatically on the other developers' local environments, UAT environment, etc.
I tried adding the following property to the Spring Boot config
spring:
flyway:
baseline-on-migrate: true
I expected this to do the same thing as the baseline command when the Spring Boot app starts up if the flyway_schema_history table does not exist, i.e. create this table and insert a row specifying the current schema version, but it didn't.
Is there a way to automatically baseline the database when the app starts up?
