ActiveRecord is available to you. Inside the self.up, you can do: AnyArbitraryModel.connection.execute(all_of_your_sql)
Any model in your app will do, as you are bypassing your model's business rules and going directly to the connection. The return is a Mysql::Result, which you can look up here: http://www.tmtm.org/en/ruby/mysql/ Hope this helps.
