**Read the breaking changes on how to migrate your history**

It's time for 0.24 and it contains some structural changes to our history which requires action from your end, so please keep reading.

Roy Hooper did an amazing job migrating the history support from being tied to SQLite to use the ORM SQLAlchemy instead. This means that you can now use **any** SQL backend for the history. So besides SQLite you can now databases like MySQL or PostgreSQL.

However, this does require that you run a command to migrate your existing history over. We tried to make the process as seamless as possible by introducing a new command line script:

bash
hass --script db_migrator --config /path/to/config


You can omit the `--config` option if you use the default configuration directory. Run the script with `--help` to get more options.
