I have columns as mentioned bellow:
public function up()
{
Schema::create('stnk', function(Blueprint $table)
{
$table->increments('id');
$table->string('no_reg', 50)->unique();
$table->string('no_bpkb', 50)->unique();
$table->string('nama_pemilik', 100);
$table->string('alamat');
$table->string('merk', 50);
$table->string('tipe', 50);
$table->string('jenis', 50);
$table->smallInteger('tahun_pembuatan');
$table->smallInteger('tahun_registrasi');
$table->smallInteger('isi_silinder');
$table->string('no_rangka', 50);
$table->string('no_mesin', 50);
$table->string('warna', 50);
$table->string('bahan_bakar', 50);
$table->string('warna_tnkb', 50);
$table->string('kode_lokasi', 50);
$table->date('berlaku_sampai');
$table->timestamps();
$table->index('created_at');
$table->index('updated_at');
});
}
I have made seeder to stnk table
Now I want to rename id
to id_stnk
.
I've added a "doctrine / dbal" in the "composer" and do a composer update
.
I've made migration php artisan migration:make rename_column
.
Then I've added new method to rename_column:
Schema::table('stnk', function(Blueprint $table)
{
$table->renameColumn('id', 'id_stnk');
});
And then I've tried to run command php artisan migrate
but I got error as mentioned bellow:
[Ulluminate\Database\QueryException]
SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 1025 Error on rename of './my_database/#sql -447_33' to './my_database/stnk' (error: 150) (SQL: ALTER TABLE stnk CHANGE id id_stnk INT UNSIGENED AUTO_INCREMENT NOT NULL)
[PDOException]
SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 1025 Error on rename of './my_database/#sql -447_33' to './my_database/stnk' (error: 150)
You need to create another migration file - and place it in there:
Run
Laravel 4: php artisan migrate:make rename_stnk_column
Laravel 5: php artisan make:migration rename_stnk_column
Then inside the new migration file place:
class RenameStnkColumn extends Migration
{
public function up()
{
Schema::table('stnk', function(Blueprint $table) {
$table->renameColumn('id', 'id_stnk');
});
}
public function down()
{
Schema::table('stnk', function(Blueprint $table) {
$table->renameColumn('id_stnk', 'id');
});
}
}
Follow these steps, respectively for rename column migration file.
1- Is there Doctrine/dbal library in your project. If you don't have run the command first
composer require doctrine/dbal
2- create update migration file for update old migration file. Warning (need to have the same name)
php artisan make:migration update_oldFileName_table
for example my old migration file name: create_users_table update file name should : update_users_table
3- update_oldNameFile_table.php
Schema::table('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->renameColumn('from', 'to');
});
'from' my old column name and 'to' my new column name
4- Finally run the migrate command
php artisan migrate
Source link: laravel document
NOT: This feature supports from laravel 5.x to 8.x version.
first thing you want to do is to create your migration file.
Type in your command line
php artisan make:migration rename_stk_column --table="YOUR TABLE" --create
After creating the file. Open the new created migration file in your app folder under database/migrations.
In your up method insert this:
Schema::table('stnk', function(Blueprint $table)
{
$table->renameColumn('id', 'id_stnk');
});
}
and in your down method:
Schema::table('stnk', function(Blueprint $table)
{
$table->renameColumn('id_stnk', 'id);
});
}
then in your command line just type
php artisan migrate
Then wollah! you have just renamed id to id_stnk. BTW you can use
php artisan migrate:rollback
to undo the changes. Goodluck
Renaming Columns (Laravel 5.x)
To rename a column, you may use the renameColumn method on the Schema builder. *Before renaming a column, be sure to add the doctrine/dbal dependency to your composer.json file.*
Or you can simply required the package using composer...
composer require doctrine/dbal
Source: https://laravel.com/docs/5.0/schema#renaming-columns
Note: Use make:migration and not migrate:make for Laravel 5.x
Throwing my $0.02 in here since none of the answers worked, but did send me on the right path. What happened was that a previous foreign constraint was throwing the error. Obvious when you think about it.
So in your new migration's up
method, first drop that original constraint, rename the column, then add the constraint again with the new column name. In the down
method, you do the exact opposite so that it's back to the sold setting.
/**
* Run the migrations.
*
* @return void
*/
public function up()
{
Schema::table('proxy4s', function (Blueprint $table) {
// Drop it
$table->dropForeign(['server_id']);
// Rename
$table->renameColumn('server_id', 'linux_server_id');
// Add it
$table->foreign('linux_server_id')->references('id')->on('linux_servers');
});
}
/**
* Reverse the migrations.
*
* @return void
*/
public function down()
{
Schema::table('proxy4s', function (Blueprint $table) {
// Drop it
$table->dropForeign(['linux_server_id']);
// Rename
$table->renameColumn('linux_server_id', 'server_id');
// Add it
$table->foreign('server_id')->references('id')->on('linux_servers');
});
}
Hope this saves someone some time in the future!

I know this is an old question, but I faced the same problem recently in Laravel 7 application. To make renaming columns work I used a tip from this answer where instead of composer require doctrine/dbal
I have issued composer require doctrine/dbal:^2.12.1
because the latest version of doctrine/dbal still throws an error.
Just keep in mind that if you already use a higher version, this answer might not be appropriate for you.
The above answer is great or if it will not hurt you, just rollback the migration and change the name and run migration again.
php artisan migrate:rollback
Success story sharing
id
on thestnk
table.make:migration
and notmigrate:make
"doctrine/dbal": "~2.3"
Without that you get some very obscure errors. It was raised as a bug here github.com/laravel/framework/issues/3116 and with an arguably less useful mention in the documentation here laravel.com/docs/5.0/schema#renaming-columns
