Make is an old tool with one job: orchestrate shell commands. It's used to build things, and is the oldest build tool there is. We can use this power to build out our database!
rebuild: dev change schema migrate migrate: rails db:migrate schema: rails db:schema:dump dev: psql -q railz_development < db.sql change: psql -q railz_development < change.sql .PHONY: dev change migrate schema db
This file will run the commands in order, creating our dev database, running our SQL scripts, and finally any migrations.
