Notes on system stability:
70 14091 aaronmk
	**WARNING**: when shutting down the VM, always first stop Postgres:
71
		sudo service postgresql stop
72
		this prevents the OS from SIGKILLing Postgres, which sometimes causes
73
		database corruption
74 13024 aaronmk
75 12011 aaronmk
Notes on running programs:
76
	**WARNING**: always start with a clean shell, to avoid spurious bugs. the
77
		shell should not have changes to the env vars. (there have been bugs
78
		that went away after closing and reopening the terminal window.) note
79
		that running `exec bash` is not sufficient to *reset* the env vars.
80
81 11967 aaronmk
Notes on editing files:
82
	**WARNING**: shell scripts should always be read-only, so that editing them
83
		while an import is in progress will not crash the import (see
84
		http://vegpath.org/links/#**%20modifying%20a%20running%20shell%20script)
85
86 7287 aaronmk
Full database import:
87 12226 aaronmk
	**WARNING**: You must perform *every single* step listed below, to avoid
88 9499 aaronmk
		breaking column-based import
89 12011 aaronmk
	**WARNING**: always start with a clean shell, as described above under
90
		"Notes on running programs"
91 13021 aaronmk
	**IMPORTANT**: the beginning of the import should be scheduled at a time
92
		when the DB will not be needed for other uses. this is necessary because
93
		vegbiendev will be slow for the first few hours of the import, due to
94
		the import using all the available cores.
95 13000 aaronmk
	do steps under Maintenance > "to synchronize vegbiendev, jupiter, and
96
		your local machine"
97 8458 aaronmk
	On local machine:
98
		make inputs/upload
99 10025 aaronmk
		make inputs/upload live=1
100 14077 aaronmk
		make test by_col=1 # runtime: 1 h ("53m7.383s") @starscream
101 10549 aaronmk
			if you encounter errors, they are most likely related to the
102
				PostgreSQL error parsing in /lib/sql.py parse_exception()

105 13284 aaronmk
	ssh -t vegbiendev.nceas.ucsb.edu exec sudo -u aaronmk -i

108 8458 aaronmk
	make inputs/download
109 10025 aaronmk
	make inputs/download live=1
110 8458 aaronmk
	For each newly-uploaded datasource above: make inputs/<datasrc>/reinstall
111
	Update the auxiliary schemas: make schemas/reinstall
112 12226 aaronmk
		**WARNING**: requires sudo access!
113 8458 aaronmk
		The public schema will be installed separately by the import process
114
	Delete imports before the last so they won't bloat the full DB backup:
115
		make backups/vegbien.<version>.backup/remove
116
		To keep a previous import other than the public schema:
117
			export dump_opts='--exclude-schema=public --exclude-schema=<version>'
118 13009 aaronmk
			# env var will be inherited by `screen` shell
119 13016 aaronmk
	restart Postgres to free up any disk space used by temp tables from the last
120
		import (this is apparently not automatically reclaimed):
121
		make postgres_restart
122 13022 aaronmk
	Make sure there is at least 1 TB of disk space on /: df -h
123
		although the import schema itself is only 315 GB, Postgres uses
124 13023 aaronmk
			significant temporary space at the beginning of the import.
125 13028 aaronmk
			the total disk usage oscillates between 1.2 TB and the entire disk
126
			for the first day (for import started @12:55:09, high-water marks of
127 13031 aaronmk
			1.7 TB @14:00:25, 1.8 TB @15:38:32; then next day w/ 2 datasources
128
			running: entire disk for 4 min @05:35:44, 1.8 TB @11:15:05).
129 8458 aaronmk
		To free up space, remove backups that have been archived on jupiter:
130
			List backups/ to view older backups
131
			Check their MD5 sums using the steps under On jupiter below
132
			Remove these backups
133 13423 aaronmk
	for full import:
134
		screen
135
		Press ENTER
136 14087 aaronmk
	$0 # nested shell to prevent errexit from closing the window
137 13422 aaronmk
	the following must happen within screen to avoid affecting the outer shell:
138 13428 aaronmk
	unset TMOUT # TMOUT causes shell to exit even with background processes
139
	set -o ignoreeof # prevent Ctrl+D from exiting shell to keep attached jobs
140 13426 aaronmk
	on local machine:
141
		unset n # clear any limit set in .profile (unless desired)
142
		unset log # allow logging output to go to log files
143 13424 aaronmk
	unset version # clear any version from last import, etc.
144
	if no commits have been made since the last import (eg. if retrying an
145
		import), set a custom version that differs from the auto-assigned one
146
		(would otherwise cause a collision with the last import):
147
		svn info
148
		extract the svn revision after "Revision:"
149
		export version=r[revision]_2 # +suffix to distinguish from last import
150
			# env var will be inherited by `screen` shell
151 13119 aaronmk
	to import just a subset of the datasources:
152 13427 aaronmk
		declare -ax inputs; inputs=(inputs/{src,...}/) # no () in declare on Mac
153 13119 aaronmk
			# array vars *not* inherited by `screen` shell
154
		export version=custom_import_name
155 10579 aaronmk
	Start column-based import: . bin/import_all
156
		To use row-based import: . bin/import_all by_col=
157 8458 aaronmk
		To stop all running imports: . bin/stop_imports
158 12226 aaronmk
		**WARNING**: Do NOT run import_all in the background, or the jobs it
159
			creates won't be owned by your shell.
160 8458 aaronmk
		Note that import_all will take up to an hour to import the NCBI backbone
161
			and other metadata before returning control to the shell.
162 12026 aaronmk
		To view progress:
163 14882 aaronmk
			tail inputs/{.[^as.],}*/*/logs/$version.log.sql
164 13020 aaronmk
	note: at the beginning of the import, the system may send out CPU load
165
		warning e-mails. these can safely be ignored. (they happen because the
166
		parallel imports use all the available cores.)
167 13425 aaronmk
	for test import, turn off DB backup (also turns off analytical DB creation):
168 13429 aaronmk
		kill % # cancel after_import()
169 10850 aaronmk
	Wait (4 days) for the import to finish
170 14197 aaronmk
	**WARNING**: do *not* run backups/pg_snapshot while the import is running,
171
		due to continuously-changing files
172
	**WARNING**: do *not* run backups/pg_snapshot until the previous import has
173
		been replaced, to avoid running into disk space limits
174 8458 aaronmk
	To recover from a closed terminal window: screen -r
175 10583 aaronmk
	To restart an aborted import for a specific table:
176
		export version=<version>
177 11800 aaronmk
		(set -o errexit; make inputs/<datasrc>/<table>/import_scrub by_col=1 continue=1; make inputs/<datasrc>/publish) &
178 10588 aaronmk
		bin/after_import $! & # $! can also be obtained from `jobs -l`
179 8458 aaronmk
	Get $version: echo $version
180
	Set $version in all vegbiendev terminals: export version=<version>
181 13017 aaronmk
	When there are no more running jobs, exit `screen`: exit # not Ctrl+D
182 13025 aaronmk
	upload logs: make inputs/upload live=1
183 10025 aaronmk
	On local machine: make inputs/download-logs live=1
184 13030 aaronmk
	check for disk space errors:
185 14882 aaronmk
		grep --files-with-matches -F 'No space left on device' inputs/{.[^as.],}*/*/logs/$version.log.sql
186 13030 aaronmk
		if there are any matches:
187
			manually reimport these datasources using the steps under
188
				Single datasource import
189
			bin/after_import &
190
			wait for the import to finish
191 14882 aaronmk
	tail inputs/{.[^as.],}*/*/logs/$version.log.sql
192 13029 aaronmk
	In the output, search for "Command exited with non-zero status"
193
	For inputs that have this, fix the associated bug(s)
194
	If many inputs have errors, discard the current (partial) import:
195
		make schemas/$version/uninstall
196
	Otherwise, continue
197 8458 aaronmk
	In PostgreSQL:
198 11568 aaronmk

199 11728 aaronmk
		Get the # observations
200
		Get the # datasources
201
		Get the # datasources with observations
202 11892 aaronmk
		in the r# schema:
203 11569 aaronmk
		Check that analytical_stem contains [# observations] rows
204 12148 aaronmk
		Check that source contains [# datasources] rows up through XAL. If this
205
			is not the case, manually check the entries in source against the

208 11568 aaronmk
		Check that provider_count contains [# datasources with observations]
209
			rows with dataset="(total)" (at the top when the table is unsorted)
210 9492 aaronmk
	Check that TNRS ran successfully:
211
		tail -100 inputs/.TNRS/tnrs/logs/tnrs.make.log.sql
212

313 8469 aaronmk
	umask ug=rwx,o= # prevent files from becoming web-accessible
314 8458 aaronmk
	Add a new datasource: make inputs/<datasrc>/add
315
		<datasrc> may not contain spaces, and should be abbreviated.
316
		If the datasource is a herbarium, <datasrc> should be the herbarium code
317
			as defined by the Index Herbariorum <http://sweetgum.nybg.org/ih/>

			Place the original .sql file in _src/ (*not* in _MySQL/)
323
			Follow the steps starting with Install the staging tables below.

		cp -p lib/MySQL.{data,schema}.sql.make inputs/<datasrc>/_MySQL/
333
		Edit _MySQL/*.make for the DB connection
334
			For a .sql export, use server=vegbiendev and --user=bien
335
		Skip the Add input data for each table section
336
	For MS Access databases:
337
		Place the .mdb or .accdb file in _src/
338 14661 aaronmk
		Download and install Bullzip's MS Access to PostgreSQL from
339
			http://bullzip.com/download.php > Access To PostgreSQL > Download
340 8458 aaronmk
		Use Access To PostgreSQL to export the database:
341
			Export just the tables/indexes to inputs/<datasrc>/<file>.schema.sql
342 14662 aaronmk
				using the settings in the associated .ini file where available
343
			Export just the data to inputs/<datasrc>/<file>.data.sql using the
344
				settings in the associated .ini file where available
345 8458 aaronmk
		In <file>.schema.sql, make the following changes:
346 14813 aaronmk
			Replace text "^CREATE DATABASE .*?;$" with "/*$0*/"
347 8458 aaronmk
			Replace text "BOOLEAN" with "/*BOOLEAN*/INTEGER"
348
			Replace text "DOUBLE PRECISION NULL" with "DOUBLE PRECISION"
349
		Skip the Add input data for each table section
350
	Add input data for each table present in the datasource:
351
		For .sql exports, you must use the name of the table in the DB export
352
		For CSV files, you can use any name. It's recommended to use a table
353
			name from <https://projects.nceas.ucsb.edu/nceas/projects/bien/wiki/VegCSV#Suggested-table-names>
354
		Note that if this table will be joined together with another table, its
355
			name must end in ".src"
356
		make inputs/<datasrc>/<table>/add
357
			Important: DO NOT just create an empty directory named <table>!
358
				This command also creates necessary subdirs, such as logs/.
359
		If the table is in a .sql export: make inputs/<datasrc>/<table>/install
360
			Otherwise, place the CSV(s) for the table in
361
			inputs/<datasrc>/<table>/ OR place a query joining other tables
362
			together in inputs/<datasrc>/<table>/create.sql
363
		Important: When exporting relational databases to CSVs, you MUST ensure
364
			that embedded quotes are escaped by doubling them, *not* by
365
			preceding them with a "\" as is the default in phpMyAdmin
366
		If there are multiple part files for a table, and the header is repeated
367
			in each part, make sure each header is EXACTLY the same.
368 8466 aaronmk
			(If the headers are not the same, the CSV concatenation script
369
			assumes the part files don't have individual headers and treats the
370
			subsequent headers as data rows.)
371 8458 aaronmk
		Add <table> to inputs/<datasrc>/import_order.txt before other tables
372
			that depend on it
373 11018 aaronmk
		For a new-style datasource:
374
			"cp" -f inputs/.NCBI/nodes/run inputs/<datasrc>/<table>/
375
			inputs/<datasrc>/<table>/run
376 8458 aaronmk
	Install the staging tables:
377
		make inputs/<datasrc>/reinstall quiet=1 &
378
		For a MySQL .sql export:
379
			At prompt "[you]@vegbiendev's password:", enter your password
380
			At prompt "Enter password:", enter the value in config/bien_password
381
		To view progress: tail -f inputs/<datasrc>/<table>/logs/install.log.sql
382
		View the logs: tail -n +1 inputs/<datasrc>/*/logs/install.log.sql
383
			tail provides a header line with the filename
384
			+1 starts at the first line, to show the whole file
385
		For every file with an error 'column "..." specified more than once':
386
			Add a header override file "+header.<ext>" in <table>/:
387
				Note: The leading "+" should sort it before the flat files.
388
					"_" unfortunately sorts *after* capital letters in ASCII.
389
				Create a text file containing the header line of the flat files
390
				Add an ! at the beginning of the line
391
					This signals cat_csv that this is a header override.
392
				For empty names, use their 0-based column # (by convention)
393
				For duplicate names, add a distinguishing suffix
394
				For long names that collided, rename them to <= 63 chars long
395
				Do NOT make readability changes in this step; that is what the
396
					map spreadsheets (below) are for.
397
				Save
398
		If you made any changes, re-run the install command above
399
	Auto-create the map spreadsheets: make inputs/<datasrc>/
400
	Map each table's columns:
401
		In each <table>/ subdir, for each "via map" map.csv:
402
			Open the map in a spreadsheet editor
403
			Open the "core map" /mappings/Veg+-VegBIEN.csv
404
			In each row of the via map, set the right column to a value from the
405
				left column of the core map
406
			Save
407
		Regenerate the derived maps: make inputs/<datasrc>/
408
	Accept the test cases:
409 11018 aaronmk
		For a new-style datasource:
410
			inputs/<datasrc>/run
411
			svn di inputs/<datasrc>/*/test.xml.ref
412
			If you get errors, follow the steps for old-style datasources below
413
		For an old-style datasource:
414
			make inputs/<datasrc>/test
415 8458 aaronmk
			When prompted to "Accept new test output", enter y and press ENTER
416
			If you instead get errors, do one of the following for each one:
417
			-	If the error was due to a bug, fix it
418
			-	Add a SQL function that filters or transforms the invalid data
419
			-	Make an empty mapping for the columns that produced the error.
420
				Put something in the Comments column of the map spreadsheet to
421
				prevent the automatic mapper from auto-removing the mapping.
422
			When accepting tests, it's helpful to use WinMerge
423
				(see WinMerge setup below for configuration)
424
		make inputs/<datasrc>/test by_col=1
425
			If you get errors this time, this always indicates a bug, usually in
426
				the VegBIEN unique constraints or column-based import itself
427
	Add newly-created files: make inputs/<datasrc>/add
428
	Commit: svn ci -m "Added inputs/<datasrc>/" inputs/<datasrc>/
429
	Update vegbiendev:

	Refactoring tips:
707
		To rename a table:
708
			In vegbien.sql, do the following:
709
				Replace regexp (?<=_|\b)<old>(?=_|\b) with <new>
710
					This is necessary because the table name is *everywhere*
711
				Search for <new>
712
				Manually change back any replacements inside comments
713
		To rename a column:
714
			Rename the column: ALTER TABLE <table> RENAME <old> TO <new>;
715
			Recreate any foreign key for the column, removing CONSTRAINT <name>
716
				This resets the foreign key name using the new column name
717
	Creating a poster of the ERD:
718
		Determine the poster size:
719
			Measure the line height (from the bottom of one line to the bottom
720
				of another): 16.3cm/24 lines = 0.679cm
721
			Measure the height of the ERD: 35.4cm*2 = 70.8cm
722
			Zoom in as far as possible
723
			Measure the height of a capital letter: 3.5mm
724
			Measure the line height: 8.5mm
725
			Calculate the text's fraction of the line height: 3.5mm/8.5mm = 0.41
726
			Calculate the text height: 0.679cm*0.41 = 0.28cm
727
			Calculate the text height's fraction of the ERD height:
728
				0.28cm/70.8cm = 0.0040
729
			Measure the text height on the *VegBank* ERD poster: 5.5mm = 0.55cm
730
			Calculate the VegBIEN poster height to make the text the same size:
731
				0.55cm/0.0040 = 137.5cm H; *1in/2.54cm = 54.1in H
732
			The ERD aspect ratio is 11 in W x (2*8.5in H) = 11x17 portrait
733
			Calculate the VegBIEN poster width: 54.1in H*11W/17H = 35.0in W
734
			The minimum VegBIEN poster size is 35x54in portrait
735
		Determine the cost:
736
			The FedEx Kinkos near NCEAS (1030 State St, Santa Barbara, CA 93101)
737
				charges the following for posters:
738
				base: $7.25/sq ft
739
				lamination: $3/sq ft
740
				mounting on a board: $8/sq ft

	Mapping process: make test
749
		Including column-based import: make test by_col=1
750
			If the row-based and column-based imports produce different inserted
751
			row counts, this usually means that a table is underconstrained
752
			(the unique indexes don't cover all possible rows).
753
			This can occur if you didn't use COALESCE(field, null_value) around
754
			a nullable field in a unique index. See sql_gen.null_sentinels for
755
			the appropriate null value to use.
