If you're using the DBIx::Class ORM and building websites in Perl using Catalyst or similar modern frameworks, you might be interested in my take on packaging up DBIx::Class::DeploymentHandler and DBIx::Class::Fixtures into a neat set of classes and scripts designed to give you a standard workflow for database migrations.
The goal of the project is to help you get started fast using migrations and to help take away some of the painful setup effort it takes to get started with an DBIC project. Over time I am hoping to build a set of standard practices that are community tested and well documented around these tools. Lets give some of the other popular daabase tools for migrating and deploying something to worry about!
Currently this is a Github only project since its pending review and integration of several patches to DBIx::Class::DeploymentHandler, but if you are curious have a sneak peak and feedback is very welcomed!
