Phoenix Deploying with Releases guides misprint?

in the Ecto migrations and custom commands

def rollback(repo, version) do
    {:ok, _, _} = Ecto.Migrator.with_repo(repo, &Ecto.Migrator.run(&1, :down, to: version))
  end

Shouldn’t you add Application.load(@app) inside the body of rollback/2?

It starts the default required apps for you (you can configure more for it to start).

However there’s still one error :

** (RuntimeError) connect raised KeyError exception: key :database not found. The exception details are hidden, as they may contain sensitive data such as database credentials.

Connection.enter_connect/5 seems closely coupled with the phoenix app.

One way to solve this issue was to add Application.load(@app) inside the body of rollback/2.

Ah, you’re right, yeah. It needs access to the application environment. Nice catch!
