+# План: Миграционна система + Data Migration Engine
+
+## Архитектурен проблем
+
+BaraDB сървърът има пълна BaraQL миграционна система:
+```sql
+CREATE MIGRATION name { UP: ...; DOWN: ...; }
+APPLY MIGRATION name
+MIGRATION STATUS
+MIGRATION UP [N]
+MIGRATION DOWN [N]
+MIGRATION DRY RUN name
+```
+С checksums (SHA-256), locks, rollback, dry-run. Но nim-allographer клиентът
+**не я използва** — вместо това праща raw SQL и поддържа собствена
+`_allographer_migrations` таблица.
+
+## Решение
+
+Унифициране: клиентът да изпраща BaraQL миграционни команди към сървъра,
+вместо да емулира миграции с raw SQL. Сървърът вече знае как да валидира,
+lock-ва, и track-ва миграциите.
+
+---
+
+## Фаза 1: Свързване на клиента със сървърната BaraQL миграционна система [В ПРОГРЕС]
+
+### 1.1 `baradb_client.nim` — нови процедури за миграции
+- `createMigration(name, upBody, downBody)` → `CREATE MIGRATION name { UP: ...; DOWN: ...; }`
+- `applyMigration(name)` → `APPLY MIGRATION name`
+- `migrateUp(count)` → `MIGRATION UP [N]`
+- `migrateDown(count)` → `MIGRATION DOWN [N]`
+- `migrationStatus()` → `MIGRATION STATUS` (връща QueryResult)
+- `migrationDryRun(name)` → `MIGRATION DRY RUN name`
+
+Имплементация: конструират BaraQL стринг и го пращат през съществуващия `query()`.
+
+### 1.2 `baradb_exec.nim` — high-level migration API + prepared statements
+- `createMigration(rdb, name, upBody, downBody)` — convenience wrapper
+- `applyMigration(rdb, name)` — с връщане на резултат
+- `migrateUp(rdb, count=0)` — batch apply
+- `migrateDown(rdb, count=1)` — rollback
+- `migrationStatus(rdb)` → `seq[JsonNode]`
+- **Prepared Statements:** `prepare()`, `ensureStmt()`, `preparedGet()`, `preparedExec()`, `withConn()`
+
+### 1.3 `schema_utils.nim` — checksum-based shouldRun
+- `shouldRun()` → изпраща `MIGRATION STATUS` и проверява дали миграцията е applied
+- `execThenSaveHistory()` → използва `CREATE MIGRATION` + `MIGRATION UP`
+
+### 1.4 `create_migration_table.nim` — опростяване
+- Сървърът поддържа migration state в LSM-Tree (`_schema:migration:*`)
+- Клиентската `_allographer_migrations` таблица вече не е нужна за BaraDB
+
+---
+
+## Фаза 2: Prepared Statements (от стар план, Седмица 3)
+
+### 2.1 `baradb_exec.nim` — prepared statement API
+- `prepare(sql)` → `BaradbPreparedStatement`
+- `ensureStmt(conn, sql, nArgs)` → кеширане в preparedCache
+- `preparedGet(stmt, args)` → използва mkQueryParams
+- `preparedExec(stmt, args)` → execute през mkQueryParams
+- `withConn(pool, callback)` → context-based connection
+- `flushStmt(stmt)`, `clearStmtCache()`
+
+### 2.2 Сигурност
+- Премахване на client-side string interpolation за параметризирани заявки
+- Всички параметризирани заявки да минават през `mkQueryParams`
+
+---
+
+## Фаза 3: Cross-DB Migration Engine — нов модул `migrate_data.nim`
+
+### 3.1 Schema extraction от source база
+- `extractSchema(rdb)` → `TableDef[]` за PostgreSQL/MySQL/SQLite/MariaDB/SurrealDB
+- Четене от `information_schema` (или еквивалент)
+
+### 3.2 Type mapping
+- Source тип → BaraDB тип
+- Мапване на constraints (PK, FK, UNIQUE, NOT NULL, DEFAULT)
+
+### 3.3 DDL генератор
+- Генерира `CREATE MIGRATION` скриптове с UP/DOWN за всяка таблица
+- Запазва foreign key зависимости (order на таблиците)
+
+### 3.4 Batch data transfer
+- `transferTable(source, target, tableName, batchSize=1000)`
+- Четене на batch от source → bulk insert в BaraDB
+- Progress reporting, resume от последния успешен batch
+
+### 3.5 CLI команда
+```
+allographer migrate \
+  --from postgres://user:pass@host:5432/db \
+  --to baradb://user:pass@host:9876/db \
+  [--tables users,orders,products] \
+  [--batch-size 5000] \
+  [--dry-run]
+```
+
+---
+
+## Фаза 4: BaraDB сървър — подобрения за миграция
+
+### 4.1 `IMPORT FROM` синтаксис в BaraQL
+### 4.2 `EXPORT TO` синтаксис в BaraQL
+### 4.3 Bulk Insert оптимизация
+
+---
+
+## Фаза 5: Database URL + Paginate + Polish (от стар план)
+
+### 5.1 Database URL support — `baradb://user:pass@host:port/db`
+### 5.2 Paginate / fastPaginate
+
+---
+
+## Фаза 6: Тестове и документация
+
+### 6.1 Липсващи тестове за BaraDB (от стар план)
+- `test_prepared_statement.nim`, `test_schema.nim`, `test_create_schema.nim`
+- `test_pool_wait.nim`, `test_transaction.nim`
+
+### 6.2 Нови тестове за миграция
+- `test_migration_create.nim`, `test_migration_up_down.nim`
+- `test_cross_db_migration.nim`
+
+### 6.3 Документация
+- `documents/migration.md`

+# BaraDB Migration System — Ръководство
+
+## Общ преглед
+
+BaraDB има вградена миграционна система чрез BaraQL. Миграциите се управляват
+изцяло от сървъра — checksums, locking, rollback, status tracking. Клиентът
+(nim-allographer) изпраща BaraQL команди и не поддържа собствена миграционна
+таблица.
+
+## BaraQL миграционен синтаксис
+
+```sql
+-- Създаване на миграция с UP и DOWN скриптове
+CREATE MIGRATION add_users_table {
+  UP: CREATE TABLE users (
+    id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
+    name VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
+    email VARCHAR(255) UNIQUE,
+    created_at TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
+  );
+  DOWN: DROP TABLE IF EXISTS users;
+}
+
+-- Прилагане на конкретна миграция
+APPLY MIGRATION add_users_table
+
+-- Прилагане на всички неприложени миграции
+MIGRATION UP
+
+-- Прилагане на следващите N миграции
+MIGRATION UP 3
+
+-- Отмяна на последната миграция (rollback)
+MIGRATION DOWN
+
+-- Отмяна на последните N миграции
+MIGRATION DOWN 2
+
+-- Преглед на статуса на всички миграции
+MIGRATION STATUS
+
+-- Dry run — проверка без изпълнение
+MIGRATION DRY RUN add_users_table
+```
+
+## Nim API (nim-allographer)
+
+### Свързване
+
+```nim
+import allographer/connection
+import allographer/query_builder
+
+# Стандартно свързване
+let rdb = dbOpen(Baradb, "mydb", "admin", "", "127.0.0.1", 9472)
+
+# Или чрез URL
+let rdb = dbOpen(Baradb, asDatabaseUrl("baradb://admin@127.0.0.1:9472/mydb"))
+```
+
+### Управление на миграции
+
+```nim
+import allographer/query_builder/models/baradb/baradb_exec
+
+# Създаване на миграция
+let upSql = """
+  CREATE TABLE products (
+    id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
+    name VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
+    price DECIMAL(10,2)
+  )
+"""
+let downSql = "DROP TABLE IF EXISTS products"
+let qr = waitFor rdb.createMigration("add_products", upSql, downSql)
+
+# Прилагане на миграция
+let qr = waitFor rdb.applyMigration("add_products")
+
+# Прилагане на всички неприложени
+let qr = waitFor rdb.migrateUp()
+
+# Rollback
+let qr = waitFor rdb.migrateDown(1)
+
+# Проверка на статус
+let status = waitFor rdb.migrationStatus()
+for row in status:
+  echo row["name"].getStr, " → ", row["status"].getStr
+
+# Проверка дали миграция е приложена
+if waitFor rdb.isMigrationApplied("add_products"):
+  echo "Migration already applied"
+
+# Dry run
+let qr = waitFor rdb.migrationDryRun("add_products")
+echo $qr
+```
+
+### Schema Builder (автоматични миграции)
+
+```nim
+import allographer/schema_builder
+import allographer/query_builder
+
+let rdb = dbOpen(Baradb, "mydb", "admin", "", "127.0.0.1", 9472)
+
+# Дефиниране на таблица
+let usersTable = table("users", [
+  Column.increments("id"),
+  Column.string("name"),
+  Column.string("email").unique(),
+  Column.integer("age").nullable(),
+  Column.timestamps()
+])
+
+# Създаване (автоматично генерира CREATE MIGRATION)
+rdb.create(usersTable)
+
+# Промяна
+let alteredTable = table("users", [
+  Column.string("phone").nullable().add()  # добавяне на колона
+])
+rdb.alter(alteredTable)
+
+# Изтриване
+rdb.drop(usersTable)
+```
+
+### Prepared Statements
+
+```nim
+import allographer/query_builder/models/baradb/baradb_exec
+
+# Подготовка на statement (кешира се)
+let stmt = waitFor rdb.prepare(
+  "SELECT * FROM users WHERE age > ? AND status = ?", nArgs = 2
+)
+
+# Изпълнение с параметри
+let youngAdmins = waitFor stmt.preparedGet(@[
+  WireValue(kind: fkInt32, int32Val: 18),
+  WireValue(kind: fkString, strVal: "active")
+])
+
+# Execute (INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE)
+let affected = waitFor stmt.preparedExec(@[
+  WireValue(kind: fkInt32, int32Val: 21),
+  WireValue(kind: fkString, strVal: "pending")
+])
+
+# Освобождаване
+stmt.flushStmt()
+
+# Изчистване на целия кеш
+rdb.clearStmtCache()
+```
+
+### Pagination
+
+```nim
+# Offset-based
+let page1 = waitFor rdb.table("users")
+  .orderBy("id", Asc)
+  .paginate(page = 1, perPage = 20)
+echo page1.rows.len  # 20
+echo page1.total     # 150
+echo page1.hasMore   # true
+
+# Cursor-based (по-бързо за големи таблици)
+let batch = waitFor rdb.table("users")
+  .fastPaginate("id", perPage = 100, afterId = "42")
+echo batch.hasMore
+```

+
+## Cross-DB Migration Engine
+
+Мигриране на данни от PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, SQLite или SurrealDB към BaraDB.
+
+### Поддържани source бази
+
+| База | Статус | Schema extraction |
+|------|--------|-------------------|
+| PostgreSQL | ✅ | `information_schema` |
+| MySQL | ✅ | `information_schema` |
+| MariaDB | ✅ | `information_schema` |
+| SQLite | ✅ | `sqlite_master` + `PRAGMA` |
+| SurrealDB | ✅ | `INFO FOR DB` / `INFO FOR TABLE` |
+
+### API
+
+```nim
+import allographer/migrate_data
+
+# Свързване към source и target
+let pg = dbOpen(PostgreSQL, "sourcedb", "user", "pass", "localhost", 5432)
+let bdb = dbOpen(Baradb, "targetdb", "admin", "", "127.0.0.1", 9472)
+
+# Мигриране на всички таблици
+let report = waitFor migrate(pg, bdb, batchSize = 5000)
+echo report
+# Migration: PostgreSQL → BaraDB
+#   Tables: 12/12
+#   Rows:   45230
+#   Time:   3.2s
+
+# Мигриране само на конкретни таблици
+let report = waitFor migrate(pg, bdb, tables = @["users", "orders", "products"])
+```
+
+### Как работи
+
+1. **Schema extraction** — чете структурата на таблиците от source базата
+2. **Type mapping** — мапва типовете към BaraDB еквиваленти:
+   - `SERIAL` → `SERIAL`
+   - `VARCHAR(n)` → `VARCHAR(n)`
+   - `TEXT` → `TEXT`
+   - `JSONB` → `JSON`
+   - `BOOLEAN` → `BOOLEAN`
+   - и още 50+ типа
+3. **DDL генерация** — създава `CREATE MIGRATION` с UP/DOWN скриптове
+4. **Data transfer** — чете данни на batch-ове и ги вмъква в BaraDB
+5. **Progress tracking** — връща `MigrationReport` с детайли
+

+
+## Често задавани въпроси
+
+### Мога ли да мигрирам от SQLite директно към BaraDB?
+
+Да. Свържете се към SQLite файла и използвайте `migrate()`:
+
+```nim
+let sqlite = dbOpen(SQLite3, "mydb.sqlite")
+let bdb = dbOpen(Baradb, "mydb", "admin", "", "127.0.0.1", 9472)
+let report = waitFor migrate(sqlite, bdb)
+```
+
+### Какво става ако миграцията се прекъсне?
+
+BaraDB сървърът поддържа transaction safety. Всяка миграция се изпълнява в
+рамките на една транзакция. При грешка:
+- DDL промените се отменят автоматично
+- `MIGRATION STATUS` показва кои миграции са applied и кои не
+- Може да продължите от последната успешна миграция
+
+### Как да проверя какви миграции са приложени?
+
+```nim
+let status = waitFor rdb.migrationStatus()
+for row in status:
+  echo &"{row[\"name\"]} → {row[\"status\"]} ({row[\"applied_at\"]})"
+```
+
+Или чрез BaraQL:
+```sql
+MIGRATION STATUS
+```
+
+### Поддържат ли се foreign key зависимости при cross-DB миграция?
+
+Да. `migrate_data.nim` запазва foreign key дефинициите в генерирания DDL.
+Препоръчва се таблиците без foreign key зависимости да се мигрират първи.
+
+### Как се прави backup преди миграция?
+
+```sql
+-- Експортирайте данните преди миграция
+EXPORT TO '/backup/before_migration.csv' FROM users FORMAT CSV
+
+-- Или използвайте backup manager-а
+-- (backup restore list verify cleanup)
+```
