Request Details

I would like to be able to make arbitrary changes to my database's schema without needing to delete all the data. I would like to be able to write module code to migrate the data from the old schema to the new one.

  2. Hello, is there any work being done for this feature? Are you looking for help to tackle it? I use spacetimedb for some of my client's websites and I love it, but it's a shame to keep zombie tables when they are no longer needed.

  3. Same, interested in this feature as well.
