Example using Doctrine Migration with a Custom Configuration File from code in https://github.com/JeffPeters/migrations/tree/custom-configuration-class

CustomConfiguration.php

<?php
class CustomConfiguration extends \Doctrine\DBAL\Migrations\Configuration\Configuration
{
    protected function createVersion($version, $class)
    {
        return new CustomVersion($this, $version, $class);
    }
    
    //createMigrationTable with an extra excuted date column
    protected $migrationTableCreated=false;
    public function createMigrationTable() {
        $this->validate();

        if ($this->migrationTableCreated) {
            return false;
        }

        $schema = $this->getConnection()->getSchemaManager();

            $columns = array(
                'version' => new Column('version', Type::getType('string'), array('length' => 255)),
                'excuted' => new Column('excuted', Type::getType('string'), array('length' => 255)),
            );
            $table = new Table($this->getMigrationsTableName(), $columns);
            $table->setPrimaryKey(array('version'));
            $schema->createTable($table);

            $this->migrationTableCreated = true;

            return true;
        } else if (count($schema->listTableColumns($this->getMigrationsTableName())) == 1) {
            $columns = array(
                'excuted' => new Column('excuted', Type::getType('string'), array('length' => 255)),
            );
            $tableDiff = new \Doctrine\DBAL\Schema\TableDiff($this->getMigrationsTableName(),$columns);
            $schema->alterTable($tableDiff);

CustomVersion.php

<?php
use Doctrine\DBAL\Schema\Schema;
use Doctrine\DBAL\Migrations\Version;

class CustomVersion extends Version
{
    public function markMigrated()
    {
        $this->getConfiguration()->createMigrationTable();
        $this->getConfiguration()->getConnection()->executeQuery(
            "INSERT INTO " . $this->getConfiguration()->getMigrationsTableName()
                . " (version,excuted) VALUES (?,?)",
                array($this->getVersion(),date('Y-m-d H:i:s')));
    }

}

MigrationConfigurationHelper.php

<?php
class MigrationConfigurationHelper extends \Symfony\Component\Console\Helper\Helper
{
    
    public function getName() {
        return "migration-configuration";
    }
    
    public function getConfiguration($conn, $outputWriter, $input) {
        $configuration = new CustomConfiguration($conn, $outputWriter);
        return $configuration;
    }
}
