I got a table in PostgreSQL containing a column 'X' of type character (255). Now I would like to migrate that table so that 'X' changes to type character[] (255), but I want the columns original character (255) value to be in the migrated column as an element of the new array in 'X'.

Using sequelize, is there a way to do that through a migration script? Or is there a way to do it in JavaScript with transitions and stuff? 

What would be the best (or maybe only) way to go?
