Generate migration for database fields

[singeryo]

Hello !

I had this idea while looking for database instructions and only found this:

Finally, you should make sure that all translatable attributes are set to the text-datatype in your database. If your database supports json-columns, use that.

Wouldn't it be nice to have a command that automatically generates a new database migration that transforms all translatable fields to JSON or TEXT, based on the models $translatable fields ?

This would prevent users to have to either

• manually set database field types (-> can't possibly be an acceptable solution right ?),
• manually create a new migration with new field types or
• manually modify existing migrations with new types and refresh DB (currently the solution I am looking at)

All of these solutions seem a little redundant to me, or am I missing an easy solution ?
