Add migrate script to pre-deploy

[DavidTheProgrammer]

Add a migrate command to the predeploy script to ensure any pending migrations are always run at startup.

@kilemensi, @thepsalmist thoughts on this? The deployment had some hiccups because the application didn't run migrations at startup. There's already a predeploy script that runs collectstatic, I'm considering adding a migrate command to it as wel..

My 2 cents would be to keep this as issue for now. We'll pick it up when we discuss the future of the project i.e. lets not make any changes not already in/incompatible with upstream.

I believe migrations can be run manually after you've ssh'ed into the instance/app, right @DavidTheProgrammer ?

[DavidTheProgrammer]

That's fair, I think we can leave it as an issue for now as advised. We can circle back to it if needed.

Yes, they can. That's how i resolved it this time around. I'll have to remember to do it again when we switch to the final DB

@DavidTheProgrammer 👍 I see they have a migrate command within the app.json but i'll double also check

Yes, but it's under the "review" section, so I believe it only applies to review apps.
