    How to add a migration that adds a boolean column to an existing table, is not null and has a default value of false?

    Using Umbraco And Getting Started
    Umbraco 8

    I tried this 

     public override void Migrate()
    {
        Alter.Table(DatabaseConstants.QuestionTable).AddColumn(DatabaseConstants.UnpublishedColumn).AsBoolean().NotNullable().WithDefaultValue(false);

    }

    but I get the obscure error The migration has run, but leaves an expression that has not run.

    Umbraco fails to boot - i have tried replacing the value with 0 instead of false - same error.

    What is the correct way of doing this in Umbraco 8?

    Hey, I fixed it. We need to add Do() at the end of the statement as below:

    Alter.Table(DatabaseConstants.QuestionTable).AddColumn(DatabaseConstants.UnpublishedColumn).AsBoolean().NotNullable().WithDefaultValue(false).Do();

    Thanks.
