Use say and say_with_time in migrations to make a useful migration log

Is a good practice to use say_with_time and say in migrations. When doing multiple things in a migration it is more explanatory than just show the name of the file.

For example, imagine you have a migration that just update column information for all users.

Example

class UpdateUsersNames < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def self.up
    say_with_time("Spliting name to extract last name") do
      User.find_each do |user|
        user.firstname, user.lastname = name.match(/^([^\s]*)\s*(.*)$/).to_a[1..-1] unless user.lastname.present?
        if user.changed?
          user.save
          say "#{user.id} was updated", subitem: true
        end
      end
    end
  end

  def self.down
  end
end

Produce

==  UpdateUserName: migrating =================================================
-- Spliting name to extract last name
   -- 859302 was updated
   -- 859303 was updated
   -> 0.0786s
==  UpdateUserName: migrated (0.0787s) ========================================
