Generation and file ownership

Update rules, conflicts and SQL history.

On this page

Generated code can be recreated from the model. Preserve your custom files and extend SQL history through new migrations. The generation plan defines these rules; a folder name alone does not identify how a file will be updated.

Category Examples On the next Generate
Generated code and contracts domain/article.go, app/article/, HTTP/SQL adapters, React generated, OpenAPI Updated from the model. Manual edits to a tracked file may cause a conflict. Force overwrite replaces the affected file; inspect what you would lose first.
Custom files backend/internal/custom/, features/article/custom/, admin/custom/vite.ts seed_if_missing creates a starter only when missing. Existing files are preserved and are not automatically adapted to model changes.
Generator SQL migrations backend/migrations/*.sql Schema changes are appended as new migrations. Previous history is not regenerated like ordinary source.
Custom migrations backend/migrations/custom/ Write SQL and register the file in backend/migrations/manifest.json to join the shared sequence. Do not rewrite an applied migration; create another migration for the next change.

Generate changes project files. The database changes separately when migrations run. Discard ungenerated changes restores only the manifest to the last successful Generate; it does not roll back data or a running release. Explicit entity retirement may archive its custom files after a separate confirmation.
