Setting Flyway 'baselineOnMigrate' and 'baselineVersion' using spring boot property file

Question

Spring Boot's FlywayProperties.java supports many of the Flyway settings but not 'baselineVersion' or 'baselineOnMigrate'. I am converting an existing application to Flyway and these setting appear to be designed for this purpose. Our production environment is highly controlled and running a commandline version of flyway there to achieve this is not practical.

Is creating a custom Flyway @Bean the only option here?

Answer 1

You can set any of flyways properties be prefixing them with flyway in your application.yml/.properties.

It is made possible by org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.flyway.FlywayAutoConfiguration.FlywayConfiguration#flyway which is annotated with @ConfigurationProperties(prefix = "flyway").

If you are using an application.yml add the following:

flyway:
    baselineOnMigrate: true

If using an application.properties add the following:

flyway.baselineOnMigrate = true
