Installation:
2
	Check out svn: svn co https://code.nceas.ucsb.edu/code/projects/bien
3
	cd bien/
4
	Install: make install
5
		**WARNING**: This will delete the public schema of your VegBIEN DB!
6
	Uninstall: make uninstall
7
		**WARNING**: This will delete your entire VegBIEN DB!
8
		This includes all archived imports and staging tables.

10
Connecting to vegbiendev:
11
	ssh -t vegbiendev.nceas.ucsb.edu exec sudo su - aaronmk
12
	cd /home/bien/svn # should happen automatically at login
13

    
14
Notes on running programs:
15
	**WARNING**: always start with a clean shell, to avoid spurious bugs. the
16
		shell should not have changes to the env vars. (there have been bugs
17
		that went away after closing and reopening the terminal window.) note
18
		that running `exec bash` is not sufficient to *reset* the env vars.
19

    
20
Notes on editing files:
21
	**WARNING**: shell scripts should always be read-only, so that editing them
22
		while an import is in progress will not crash the import (see
23
		http://vegpath.org/links/#**%20modifying%20a%20running%20shell%20script)
24

    
25
Single datasource import:
26
	ssh -t vegbiendev.nceas.ucsb.edu exec sudo su - aaronmk
27
	(Re)import and scrub: make inputs/<datasrc>/reimport_scrub by_col=1 &
28
	(Re)import only: make inputs/<datasrc>/reimport by_col=1 &
29
	Note that these commands also work if the datasource is not yet imported
30
	Remake analytical DB: see Full database import > To remake analytical DB
31

    
32
Full database import:
33
	**WARNING**: You must perform *every single* step listed below, to avoid
34
		breaking column-based import
35
	**WARNING**: always start with a clean shell, as described above under
36
		"Notes on running programs"
37
	do steps under Maintenance > "to synchronize vegbiendev, jupiter, and
38
		your local machine"
39
	On local machine:
40
		make inputs/upload
41
		make inputs/upload live=1
42
		make test by_col=1 # runtime: 20 min ("4m46.108s" + ("21:50:43" - "21:37:09")) @starscream
43
			if you encounter errors, they are most likely related to the
44
				PostgreSQL error parsing in /lib/sql.py parse_exception()
45
			See note under Testing below
46
	ssh -t vegbiendev.nceas.ucsb.edu exec sudo su - aaronmk
47
	Ensure there are no local modifications: svn st
48
	up
49
	make inputs/download
50
	make inputs/download live=1
51
	For each newly-uploaded datasource above: make inputs/<datasrc>/reinstall
52
	Update the auxiliary schemas: make schemas/reinstall
53
		**WARNING**: requires sudo access!
54
		The public schema will be installed separately by the import process
55
	Delete imports before the last so they won't bloat the full DB backup:
56
		make backups/vegbien.<version>.backup/remove
57
		To keep a previous import other than the public schema:
58
			export dump_opts='--exclude-schema=public --exclude-schema=<version>'
59
	Make sure there is at least 350GB of disk space on /: df -h
60
		The import schema is 315GB, and may use additional space for temp tables
61
		To free up space, remove backups that have been archived on jupiter:
62
			List backups/ to view older backups
63
			Check their MD5 sums using the steps under On jupiter below
64
			Remove these backups
65
	screen
66
	Press ENTER
67
	unset TMOUT # TMOUT causes screen to exit even with background processes
68
	set -o ignoreeof #prevent Ctrl+D from exiting `screen` to keep attached jobs
69
	unset version # it may have been set in the outer shell
70
	if no commits have been made since the last import (eg. if retrying an
71
		import), set a custom version that differs from the auto-assigned one
72
		(would otherwise cause a collision with the last import):
73
		svn info
74
		extract the svn revision after "Revision:"
75
		export version=r[revision]_2 # +suffix to distinguish from last import
76
	Start column-based import: . bin/import_all
77
		To use row-based import: . bin/import_all by_col=
78
		To stop all running imports: . bin/stop_imports
79
		**WARNING**: Do NOT run import_all in the background, or the jobs it
80
			creates won't be owned by your shell.
81
		Note that import_all will take up to an hour to import the NCBI backbone
82
			and other metadata before returning control to the shell.
83
		To view progress:
84
			tail inputs/{.,}*/*/logs/$version.log.sql
85
	Wait (4 days) for the import to finish
86
	To recover from a closed terminal window: screen -r
87
	To restart an aborted import for a specific table:
88
		export version=<version>
89
		(set -o errexit; make inputs/<datasrc>/<table>/import_scrub by_col=1 continue=1; make inputs/<datasrc>/publish) &
90
		bin/after_import $! & # $! can also be obtained from `jobs -l`
91
	Get $version: echo $version
92
	Set $version in all vegbiendev terminals: export version=<version>
93
	When there are no more running jobs, exit the screen
94
	ssh -t vegbiendev.nceas.ucsb.edu exec sudo su - aaronmk
95
		Upload logs: make inputs/upload live=1
96
	On local machine: make inputs/download-logs live=1
97
	In PostgreSQL:
98
		Go to wiki.vegpath.org/VegBIEN_contents
99
		Get the # observations
100
		Get the # datasources
101
		Get the # datasources with observations
102
		in the r# schema:
103
		Check that analytical_stem contains [# observations] rows
104
		Check that source contains [# datasources] rows up through XAL. If this
105
			is not the case, manually check the entries in source against the
106
			datasources list on the wiki page (some datasources may be near the
107
			end depending on import order).
108
		Check that provider_count contains [# datasources with observations]
109
			rows with dataset="(total)" (at the top when the table is unsorted)
110
	Check that TNRS ran successfully:
111
		tail -100 inputs/.TNRS/tnrs/logs/tnrs.make.log.sql
112
		If the log ends in an AssertionError
113
			"assert sql.table_col_names(db, table) == header":
114
			Figure out which TNRS CSV columns have changed
115
			On local machine:
116
				Make the changes in the DB's TNRS and public schemas
117
				rm=1 inputs/.TNRS/schema.sql.run export_
118
				make schemas/remake
119
				inputs/test_taxonomic_names/test_scrub # re-run TNRS
120
				rm=1 inputs/.TNRS/data.sql.run export_
121
				Commit
122
			ssh -t vegbiendev.nceas.ucsb.edu exec sudo su - aaronmk
123
				If dropping a column, save the dependent views
124
				Make the same changes in the live TNRS.tnrs table on vegbiendev
125
				If dropping a column, recreate the dependent views
126
				Restart the TNRS client: make scrub by_col=1 &
127
	tail inputs/{.,}*/*/logs/$version.log.sql
128
	In the output, search for "Command exited with non-zero status"
129
	For inputs that have this, fix the associated bug(s)
130
	If many inputs have errors, discard the current (partial) import:
131
		make schemas/$version/uninstall
132
	Otherwise, continue
133
	Publish the new import:
134
		**WARNING**: Before proceeding, be sure you have done *every single*
135
			verification step listed above. Otherwise, a previous valid import
136
			could incorrectly be overwritten with a broken one.
137
		make schemas/$version/publish # runtime: 1 min ("real 1m10.451s")
138
	unset version
139
	make backups/upload live=1
140
	on local machine:
141
		make backups/vegbien.$version.backup/download live=1
142
			# download backup to local machine
143
	ssh aaronmk@jupiter.nceas.ucsb.edu
144
		cd /data/dev/aaronmk/bien/backups
145
		For each newly-archived backup:
146
			make -s <backup>.md5/test
147
			Check that "OK" is printed next to the filename
148
	If desired, record the import times in inputs/import.stats.xls:
149
		On local machine:
150
		Open inputs/import.stats.xls
151
		If the rightmost import is within 5 columns of column IV:
152
			Copy the current tab to <leftmost-date>~<rightmost-date>
153
			Remove the previous imports from the current tab because they are
154
				now in the copied tab instead
155
		Insert a copy of the leftmost "By column" column group before it
156
		export version=<version>
157
		bin/import_date inputs/{.,}*/*/logs/$version.log.sql
158
		Update the import date in the upper-right corner
159
		bin/import_times inputs/{.,}*/*/logs/$version.log.sql
160
		Paste the output over the # Rows/Time columns, making sure that the
161
			row counts match up with the previous import's row counts
162
		If the row counts do not match up, insert or reorder rows as needed
163
			until they do. Get the datasource names from the log file footers:
164
			tail inputs/{.,}*/*/logs/$version.log.sql
165
		Commit: svn ci -m 'inputs/import.stats.xls: updated import times'
166
	Running individual steps separately:
167
	To run TNRS:
168
		To use an import other than public: export version=<version>
169
		make scrub &
170
		To view progress:
171
			tail -100 inputs/.TNRS/tnrs/logs/tnrs.make.log.sql
172
	To remake analytical DB:
173
		To use an import other than public: export version=<version>
174
		bin/make_analytical_db & # runtime: 13 h ("12:43:57elapsed")
175
		To view progress:
176
			tail -150 inputs/analytical_db/logs/make_analytical_db.log.sql
177
	To back up DB (staging tables and last import):
178
		To use an import *other than public*: export version=<version>
179
		make backups/TNRS.backup-remake &
180
		dump_opts=--exclude-schema=public make backups/vegbien.$version.backup/test &
181
			If after renaming to public, instead set dump_opts='' and replace
182
			$version with the appropriate revision
183
		make backups/upload live=1
184

    
185
Datasource setup:
186
	On local machine:
187
	Example steps for a datasource: wiki.vegpath.org/Import_process_for_Madidi
188
	umask ug=rwx,o= # prevent files from becoming web-accessible
189
	Add a new datasource: make inputs/<datasrc>/add
190
		<datasrc> may not contain spaces, and should be abbreviated.
191
		If the datasource is a herbarium, <datasrc> should be the herbarium code
192
			as defined by the Index Herbariorum <http://sweetgum.nybg.org/ih/>
193
	For a new-style datasource (one containing a ./run runscript):
194
		"cp" -f inputs/.NCBI/{Makefile,run,table.run} inputs/<datasrc>/
195
	For MySQL inputs (exports and live DB connections):
196
		For .sql exports:
197
			Place the original .sql file in _src/ (*not* in _MySQL/)
198
			Follow the steps starting with Install the staging tables below.
199
				This is for an initial sync to get the file onto vegbiendev.
200
			ssh -t vegbiendev.nceas.ucsb.edu exec sudo su - aaronmk
201
				Create a database for the MySQL export in phpMyAdmin
202
				Give the bien user all database-specific privileges *except*
203
					UPDATE, DELETE, ALTER, DROP. This prevents bugs in the
204
					import scripts from accidentally deleting data.
205
				bin/mysql_bien database <inputs/<datasrc>/_src/export.sql &
206
		mkdir inputs/<datasrc>/_MySQL/
207
		cp -p lib/MySQL.{data,schema}.sql.make inputs/<datasrc>/_MySQL/
208
		Edit _MySQL/*.make for the DB connection
209
			For a .sql export, use server=vegbiendev and --user=bien
210
		Skip the Add input data for each table section
211
	For MS Access databases:
212
		Place the .mdb or .accdb file in _src/
213
		Download and install Access To PostgreSQL from
214
			http://www.bullzip.com/download.php
215
		Use Access To PostgreSQL to export the database:
216
			Export just the tables/indexes to inputs/<datasrc>/<file>.schema.sql
217
			Export just the data to inputs/<datasrc>/<file>.data.sql
218
		In <file>.schema.sql, make the following changes:
219
			Replace text "BOOLEAN" with "/*BOOLEAN*/INTEGER"
220
			Replace text "DOUBLE PRECISION NULL" with "DOUBLE PRECISION"
221
		Skip the Add input data for each table section
222
	Add input data for each table present in the datasource:
223
		For .sql exports, you must use the name of the table in the DB export
224
		For CSV files, you can use any name. It's recommended to use a table
225
			name from <https://projects.nceas.ucsb.edu/nceas/projects/bien/wiki/VegCSV#Suggested-table-names>
226
		Note that if this table will be joined together with another table, its
227
			name must end in ".src"
228
		make inputs/<datasrc>/<table>/add
229
			Important: DO NOT just create an empty directory named <table>!
230
				This command also creates necessary subdirs, such as logs/.
231
		If the table is in a .sql export: make inputs/<datasrc>/<table>/install
232
			Otherwise, place the CSV(s) for the table in
233
			inputs/<datasrc>/<table>/ OR place a query joining other tables
234
			together in inputs/<datasrc>/<table>/create.sql
235
		Important: When exporting relational databases to CSVs, you MUST ensure
236
			that embedded quotes are escaped by doubling them, *not* by
237
			preceding them with a "\" as is the default in phpMyAdmin
238
		If there are multiple part files for a table, and the header is repeated
239
			in each part, make sure each header is EXACTLY the same.
240
			(If the headers are not the same, the CSV concatenation script
241
			assumes the part files don't have individual headers and treats the
242
			subsequent headers as data rows.)
243
		Add <table> to inputs/<datasrc>/import_order.txt before other tables
244
			that depend on it
245
		For a new-style datasource:
246
			"cp" -f inputs/.NCBI/nodes/run inputs/<datasrc>/<table>/
247
			inputs/<datasrc>/<table>/run
248
	Install the staging tables:
249
		make inputs/<datasrc>/reinstall quiet=1 &
250
		For a MySQL .sql export:
251
			At prompt "[you]@vegbiendev's password:", enter your password
252
			At prompt "Enter password:", enter the value in config/bien_password
253
		To view progress: tail -f inputs/<datasrc>/<table>/logs/install.log.sql
254
		View the logs: tail -n +1 inputs/<datasrc>/*/logs/install.log.sql
255
			tail provides a header line with the filename
256
			+1 starts at the first line, to show the whole file
257
		For every file with an error 'column "..." specified more than once':
258
			Add a header override file "+header.<ext>" in <table>/:
259
				Note: The leading "+" should sort it before the flat files.
260
					"_" unfortunately sorts *after* capital letters in ASCII.
261
				Create a text file containing the header line of the flat files
262
				Add an ! at the beginning of the line
263
					This signals cat_csv that this is a header override.
264
				For empty names, use their 0-based column # (by convention)
265
				For duplicate names, add a distinguishing suffix
266
				For long names that collided, rename them to <= 63 chars long
267
				Do NOT make readability changes in this step; that is what the
268
					map spreadsheets (below) are for.
269
				Save
270
		If you made any changes, re-run the install command above
271
	Auto-create the map spreadsheets: make inputs/<datasrc>/
272
	Map each table's columns:
273
		In each <table>/ subdir, for each "via map" map.csv:
274
			Open the map in a spreadsheet editor
275
			Open the "core map" /mappings/Veg+-VegBIEN.csv
276
			In each row of the via map, set the right column to a value from the
277
				left column of the core map
278
			Save
279
		Regenerate the derived maps: make inputs/<datasrc>/
280
	Accept the test cases:
281
		For a new-style datasource:
282
			inputs/<datasrc>/run
283
			svn di inputs/<datasrc>/*/test.xml.ref
284
			If you get errors, follow the steps for old-style datasources below
285
		For an old-style datasource:
286
			make inputs/<datasrc>/test
287
			When prompted to "Accept new test output", enter y and press ENTER
288
			If you instead get errors, do one of the following for each one:
289
			-	If the error was due to a bug, fix it
290
			-	Add a SQL function that filters or transforms the invalid data
291
			-	Make an empty mapping for the columns that produced the error.
292
				Put something in the Comments column of the map spreadsheet to
293
				prevent the automatic mapper from auto-removing the mapping.
294
			When accepting tests, it's helpful to use WinMerge
295
				(see WinMerge setup below for configuration)
296
		make inputs/<datasrc>/test by_col=1
297
			If you get errors this time, this always indicates a bug, usually in
298
				the VegBIEN unique constraints or column-based import itself
299
	Add newly-created files: make inputs/<datasrc>/add
300
	Commit: svn ci -m "Added inputs/<datasrc>/" inputs/<datasrc>/
301
	Update vegbiendev:
302
		ssh aaronmk@jupiter.nceas.ucsb.edu
303
			up
304
		On local machine:
305
			./fix_perms
306

	VegCore data dictionary:
401
		Regularly, or whenever the VegCore data dictionary page
402
			(https://projects.nceas.ucsb.edu/nceas/projects/bien/wiki/VegCore)
403
			is changed, regenerate mappings/VegCore.csv:
404
			On local machine:
405
			make mappings/VegCore.htm-remake; make mappings/
406
			apply new data dict mappings to datasource mappings/staging tables:
407
				inputs/run postprocess # runtime: see inputs/run
408
				time yes|make inputs/{NVS,SALVIAS,TEAM}/test # old-style import; runtime: 1 min ("0m59.692s") @starscream
409
			svn di mappings/VegCore.tables.redmine
410
			If there are changes, update the data dictionary's Tables section
411
			When moving terms, check that no terms were lost: svn di
412
			svn ci -m 'mappings/VegCore.htm: regenerated from wiki'
413
			ssh -t vegbiendev.nceas.ucsb.edu exec sudo su - aaronmk
414
				perform the steps under "apply new data dict mappings to
415
					datasource mappings/staging tables" above
416
	Important: Whenever you install a system update that affects PostgreSQL or
417
		any of its dependencies, such as libc, you should restart the PostgreSQL
418
		server. Otherwise, you may get strange errors like "the database system
419
		is in recovery mode" which go away upon reimport, or you may not be able
420
		to access the database as the postgres superuser. This applies to both
421
		Linux and Mac OS X.

Schema changes:
460
	On local machine:
461
	When changing the analytical views, run sync_analytical_..._to_view()
462
		to update the corresponding table
463
	Remember to update the following files with any renamings:
464
		schemas/filter_ERD.csv
465
		mappings/VegCore-VegBIEN.csv
466
		mappings/verify.*.sql
467
	Regenerate schema from installed DB: make schemas/remake
468
	Reinstall DB from schema: make schemas/public/reinstall schemas/reinstall
469
		**WARNING**: This will delete the public schema of your VegBIEN DB!
470
	If needed, reinstall staging tables:
471
		On local machine:
472
			sudo -E -u postgres psql <<<'ALTER DATABASE vegbien RENAME TO vegbien_prev'
473
			make db
474
			. bin/reinstall_all
475
			Fix any bugs and retry until no errors
476
			make schemas/public/install
477
				This must be run *after* the datasources are installed, because
478
				views in public depend on some of the datasources
479
			sudo -E -u postgres psql <<<'DROP DATABASE vegbien_prev'
480
		ssh -t vegbiendev.nceas.ucsb.edu exec sudo su - aaronmk
481
			repeat the above steps
482
			**WARNING**: Do not run this until reinstall_all runs successfully
483
			on the local machine, or the live DB may be unrestorable!
484
	update mappings and staging table column names:
485
		on local machine:
486
			inputs/run postprocess # runtime: see inputs/run
487
			time yes|make inputs/{NVS,SALVIAS,TEAM}/test # old-style import; runtime: 1 min ("0m59.692s") @starscream

506
		Remove any deleted tables by right-clicking the table's diagram element,
507
			selecting Delete '<table name>', and clicking Delete
508
		Save
509
		If desired, update the graphical ERD exports (see below)
510
	Update graphical ERD exports:
511
		Go to File > Export > Export as PNG...

522
	Refactoring tips:
523
		To rename a table:
524
			In vegbien.sql, do the following:
525
				Replace regexp (?<=_|\b)<old>(?=_|\b) with <new>
526
					This is necessary because the table name is *everywhere*
527
				Search for <new>
528
				Manually change back any replacements inside comments
529
		To rename a column:
530
			Rename the column: ALTER TABLE <table> RENAME <old> TO <new>;
531
			Recreate any foreign key for the column, removing CONSTRAINT <name>
532
				This resets the foreign key name using the new column name
533
	Creating a poster of the ERD:
534
		Determine the poster size:
535
			Measure the line height (from the bottom of one line to the bottom
536
				of another): 16.3cm/24 lines = 0.679cm
537
			Measure the height of the ERD: 35.4cm*2 = 70.8cm
538
			Zoom in as far as possible
539
			Measure the height of a capital letter: 3.5mm
540
			Measure the line height: 8.5mm
541
			Calculate the text's fraction of the line height: 3.5mm/8.5mm = 0.41
542
			Calculate the text height: 0.679cm*0.41 = 0.28cm
543
			Calculate the text height's fraction of the ERD height:
544
				0.28cm/70.8cm = 0.0040
545
			Measure the text height on the *VegBank* ERD poster: 5.5mm = 0.55cm
546
			Calculate the VegBIEN poster height to make the text the same size:
547
				0.55cm/0.0040 = 137.5cm H; *1in/2.54cm = 54.1in H
548
			The ERD aspect ratio is 11 in W x (2*8.5in H) = 11x17 portrait
549
			Calculate the VegBIEN poster width: 54.1in H*11W/17H = 35.0in W
550
			The minimum VegBIEN poster size is 35x54in portrait
551
		Determine the cost:
552
			The FedEx Kinkos near NCEAS (1030 State St, Santa Barbara, CA 93101)
553
				charges the following for posters:
554
				base: $7.25/sq ft
555
				lamination: $3/sq ft
556
				mounting on a board: $8/sq ft
557

Testing:
559
	On a development machine, you should put the following in your .profile:
560
		umask ug=rwx,o= # prevent files from becoming web-accessible
561
		export log= n=2
562
	For development machine specs, see /planning/resources/dev_machine.specs/
563
	On local machine:
564
	Mapping process: make test
565
		Including column-based import: make test by_col=1
566
			If the row-based and column-based imports produce different inserted
567
			row counts, this usually means that a table is underconstrained
568
			(the unique indexes don't cover all possible rows).
569
			This can occur if you didn't use COALESCE(field, null_value) around
570
			a nullable field in a unique index. See sql_gen.null_sentinels for
571
			the appropriate null value to use.
572
	Map spreadsheet generation: make remake
573
	Missing mappings: make missing_mappings

		(This is primarily useful for regressions that occurred in a previous
579
		revision, which was committed without running all the tests)
580
		up -r <rev>; make inputs/.TNRS/reinstall; make schemas/public/reinstall; make <failed-test>.xml

		mod_rewrite:
583
			**IMPORTANT**: whenever you change the DirectorySlash setting for a
584
				directory, you *must* clear your browser's cache to ensure that
585
				a cached redirect is not used. this is because RewriteRule
586
				redirects are (by default) temporary, but DirectorySlash
587
				redirects are permanent.
