MIGRATION_NAME_REQUIRED

Cause

nextly migrate:create was given no name for a migration that is not blank.

A migration's name becomes part of its file name, so nextly migrate:create asks for one whenever it writes the changes from your configuration. Only an empty migration for hand-written SQL, made with --blank, may go without one.

Fix

Name the migration, as a positional argument or with --name:

nextly migrate:create add_excerpt
nextly migrate:create --name=add_excerpt

Or pass --blank to create an empty migration for SQL you write yourself.

Example

✗ `nextly migrate:create` needs a name for the migration.
  Why:  Only a `--blank` migration may be created without a name.
  Next: Name it, as in `nextly migrate:create add_excerpt` or `--name=add_excerpt`, or pass `--blank` for an empty migration.
