knex raw query schema builder

I would like use the knex raw for schema building. Mainly I want to use to create this session table because seems like knex doesn't have collate functionality

CREATE TABLE session (
    sid varchar NOT NULL COLLATE "default",
    sess json NOT NULL,
    expire timestamp(6) NOT NULL
)

WITH (OIDS=FALSE);

ALTER TABLE "session" ADD CONSTRAINT "session_pkey" PRIMARY KEY ("sid") NOT DEFERRABLE INITIALLY IMMEDIATE;

I tried putting the entire thing in the quotes in knex.raw(), but it's giving me errors. What is the best strategy in this case?

The short answer is to use knex.schema.raw rather than knex.raw.

The raw below worked for me. I created an abbreviated version of the SQLs since I was getting SQLite Syntax errors while testing with SQLite. Also, note the use of .on('query-error',... which is helpful in returning SQL engine errors.

let rawCreate = 'CREATE TABLE session ( '+
    'sid varchar NOT NULL, sess json NOT NULL, '+
    'expire timestamp(6) NOT NULL );';
let rawCreateOriginal = 'CREATE TABLE session ( '+
    'sid varchar NOT NULL COLLATE "default", sess json NOT NULL, '+
    'expire timestamp(6) NOT NULL ) WITH (OIDS=FALSE);';

let rawAlter = 'ALTER TABLE "session" ADD KEY "sid" NOT DEFERRABLE INITIALLY IMMEDIATE;';
let rawAlterOriginal = 'ALTER TABLE "session" ADD CONSTRAINT "session_pkey" PRIMARY KEY ("sid") NOT DEFERRABLE INITIALLY IMMEDIATE;';

return knex.schema.hasTable('session')
    .then(function(exists) {
        if (!exists) {
            return knex.schema.raw(rawCreate)
            .on('query-error', function(ex, obj) {
                console.log("DA.INIT81 query-error ex:", ex, "obj:", obj);
            }).then(function() {
                console.log("DA.INIT01 Created table session.");
            }).then(function() {
                return knex.schema.raw(rawAlter)
            }).then(function() {
                console.log("DA.INIT02 Altered table session.");
            });
        }
    })
    .catch((ex) => {
        console.error("DA.INIT88 Create or Alter table session is broken. ex:",ex);
    });

Hope this helps! Gary.
