# generateMigrationScript

fun generateMigrationScript(vararg tables: Table, scriptDirectory: String, scriptName: String, withLogs: Boolean = true): File

This function simply generates the migration script without applying the migration. Its purpose is to show what the migration script will look like before applying the migration. If a migration script with the same name already exists, its content will be overwritten.
