RECORD_SNAPSHOT_STORAGE_MISSING

Cause

nextly migrate:create --record-snapshot would record translated fields that the database has no translations table or column for.

--record-snapshot writes a snapshot that records which fields are translated, for a project whose snapshots predate that record. It records them as the database holds them: every translated field needs its column in the entity's translations table (<table>_locales). A config changed since the last migration can declare a translated field the database has no storage for yet, and a snapshot that recorded it would have later migrations planned over a translations table that is not there.

Fix

Run it against a database that has applied every migration, with the config as it was at the last migration:

nextly migrate
npx nextly migrate:create --record-snapshot

Then make your change to the config again, and run npx nextly migrate:create --name <name>.

Example

✗ `--record-snapshot` found translated fields the database holds no storage for: collection "posts" has no translations table (dc_posts_locales).
  Why:  It records which fields are translated as the database holds them, so that no later migration is planned over a translations table that is not there. Nothing was written.
  Next: Run it against a database that has applied every migration, with the config as it was at the last migration.
