	Important: Whenever you install a system update that affects PostgreSQL or
56
		any of its dependencies, such as libc, you should restart the PostgreSQL
57
		server. Otherwise, you may get strange errors like "the database system
58
		is in recovery mode" which go away upon reimport, or you may not be able
59
		to access the database as the postgres superuser. This applies to both
60
		Linux and Mac OS X.

Datasource setup:
226 8469 aaronmk
	umask ug=rwx,o= # prevent files from becoming web-accessible
227 8458 aaronmk
	Add a new datasource: make inputs/<datasrc>/add
228
		<datasrc> may not contain spaces, and should be abbreviated.
229
		If the datasource is a herbarium, <datasrc> should be the herbarium code
230
			as defined by the Index Herbariorum <http://sweetgum.nybg.org/ih/>
231
	For MySQL inputs (exports and live DB connections):
232
		For .sql exports:
233
			Place the original .sql file in _src/ (*not* in _MySQL/)
234
			Follow the steps starting with Install the staging tables below.
235
				This is for an initial sync to get the file onto vegbiendev.
236
			On vegbiendev:
237
				Create a database for the MySQL export in phpMyAdmin
238 9494 aaronmk
				Give the bien user all database-specific privileges *except*
239
					UPDATE, DELETE, ALTER, DROP. This prevents bugs in the
240
					import scripts from accidentally deleting data.
241 8458 aaronmk
				bin/mysql_bien database <inputs/<datasrc>/_src/export.sql &
242
		mkdir inputs/<datasrc>/_MySQL/
243
		cp -p lib/MySQL.{data,schema}.sql.make inputs/<datasrc>/_MySQL/
244
		Edit _MySQL/*.make for the DB connection
245
			For a .sql export, use server=vegbiendev and --user=bien
246
		Skip the Add input data for each table section
247
	For MS Access databases:
248
		Place the .mdb or .accdb file in _src/
249
		Download and install Access To PostgreSQL from
250
			http://www.bullzip.com/download.php
251
		Use Access To PostgreSQL to export the database:
252
			Export just the tables/indexes to inputs/<datasrc>/<file>.schema.sql
253
			Export just the data to inputs/<datasrc>/<file>.data.sql
254
		In <file>.schema.sql, make the following changes:
255
			Replace text "BOOLEAN" with "/*BOOLEAN*/INTEGER"
256
			Replace text "DOUBLE PRECISION NULL" with "DOUBLE PRECISION"
257
		Skip the Add input data for each table section
258
	Add input data for each table present in the datasource:
259
		For .sql exports, you must use the name of the table in the DB export
260
		For CSV files, you can use any name. It's recommended to use a table
261
			name from <https://projects.nceas.ucsb.edu/nceas/projects/bien/wiki/VegCSV#Suggested-table-names>
262
		Note that if this table will be joined together with another table, its
263
			name must end in ".src"
264
		make inputs/<datasrc>/<table>/add
265
			Important: DO NOT just create an empty directory named <table>!
266
				This command also creates necessary subdirs, such as logs/.
267
		If the table is in a .sql export: make inputs/<datasrc>/<table>/install
268
			Otherwise, place the CSV(s) for the table in
269
			inputs/<datasrc>/<table>/ OR place a query joining other tables
270
			together in inputs/<datasrc>/<table>/create.sql
271
		Important: When exporting relational databases to CSVs, you MUST ensure
272
			that embedded quotes are escaped by doubling them, *not* by
273
			preceding them with a "\" as is the default in phpMyAdmin
274
		If there are multiple part files for a table, and the header is repeated
275
			in each part, make sure each header is EXACTLY the same.
276 8466 aaronmk
			(If the headers are not the same, the CSV concatenation script
277
			assumes the part files don't have individual headers and treats the
278
			subsequent headers as data rows.)
279 8458 aaronmk
		Add <table> to inputs/<datasrc>/import_order.txt before other tables
280
			that depend on it
281
	Install the staging tables:
282
		make inputs/<datasrc>/reinstall quiet=1 &
283
		For a MySQL .sql export:
284
			At prompt "[you]@vegbiendev's password:", enter your password
285
			At prompt "Enter password:", enter the value in config/bien_password
286
		To view progress: tail -f inputs/<datasrc>/<table>/logs/install.log.sql
287
		View the logs: tail -n +1 inputs/<datasrc>/*/logs/install.log.sql
288
			tail provides a header line with the filename
289
			+1 starts at the first line, to show the whole file
290
		For every file with an error 'column "..." specified more than once':
291
			Add a header override file "+header.<ext>" in <table>/:
292
				Note: The leading "+" should sort it before the flat files.
293
					"_" unfortunately sorts *after* capital letters in ASCII.
294
				Create a text file containing the header line of the flat files
295
				Add an ! at the beginning of the line
296
					This signals cat_csv that this is a header override.
297
				For empty names, use their 0-based column # (by convention)
298
				For duplicate names, add a distinguishing suffix
299
				For long names that collided, rename them to <= 63 chars long
300
				Do NOT make readability changes in this step; that is what the
301
					map spreadsheets (below) are for.
302
				Save
303
		If you made any changes, re-run the install command above
304
	Auto-create the map spreadsheets: make inputs/<datasrc>/
305
	Map each table's columns:
306
		In each <table>/ subdir, for each "via map" map.csv:
307
			Open the map in a spreadsheet editor
308
			Open the "core map" /mappings/Veg+-VegBIEN.csv
309
			In each row of the via map, set the right column to a value from the
310
				left column of the core map
311
			Save
312
		Regenerate the derived maps: make inputs/<datasrc>/
313
	Accept the test cases:
314
		make inputs/<datasrc>/test
315
			When prompted to "Accept new test output", enter y and press ENTER
316
			If you instead get errors, do one of the following for each one:
317
			-	If the error was due to a bug, fix it
318
			-	Add a SQL function that filters or transforms the invalid data
319
			-	Make an empty mapping for the columns that produced the error.
320
				Put something in the Comments column of the map spreadsheet to
321
				prevent the automatic mapper from auto-removing the mapping.
322
			When accepting tests, it's helpful to use WinMerge
323
				(see WinMerge setup below for configuration)
324
		make inputs/<datasrc>/test by_col=1
325
			If you get errors this time, this always indicates a bug, usually in
326
				the VegBIEN unique constraints or column-based import itself
327
	Add newly-created files: make inputs/<datasrc>/add
328
	Commit: svn ci -m "Added inputs/<datasrc>/" inputs/<datasrc>/

	Refactoring tips:
399
		To rename a table:
400
			In vegbien.sql, do the following:
401
				Replace regexp (?<=_|\b)<old>(?=_|\b) with <new>
402
					This is necessary because the table name is *everywhere*
403
				Search for <new>
404
				Manually change back any replacements inside comments
405
		To rename a column:
406
			Rename the column: ALTER TABLE <table> RENAME <old> TO <new>;
407
			Recreate any foreign key for the column, removing CONSTRAINT <name>
408
				This resets the foreign key name using the new column name
409
	Creating a poster of the ERD:
410
		Determine the poster size:
411
			Measure the line height (from the bottom of one line to the bottom
412
				of another): 16.3cm/24 lines = 0.679cm
413
			Measure the height of the ERD: 35.4cm*2 = 70.8cm
414
			Zoom in as far as possible
415
			Measure the height of a capital letter: 3.5mm
416
			Measure the line height: 8.5mm
417
			Calculate the text's fraction of the line height: 3.5mm/8.5mm = 0.41
418
			Calculate the text height: 0.679cm*0.41 = 0.28cm
419
			Calculate the text height's fraction of the ERD height:
420
				0.28cm/70.8cm = 0.0040
421
			Measure the text height on the *VegBank* ERD poster: 5.5mm = 0.55cm
422
			Calculate the VegBIEN poster height to make the text the same size:
423
				0.55cm/0.0040 = 137.5cm H; *1in/2.54cm = 54.1in H
424
			The ERD aspect ratio is 11 in W x (2*8.5in H) = 11x17 portrait
425
			Calculate the VegBIEN poster width: 54.1in H*11W/17H = 35.0in W
426
			The minimum VegBIEN poster size is 35x54in portrait
427
		Determine the cost:
428
			The FedEx Kinkos near NCEAS (1030 State St, Santa Barbara, CA 93101)
429
				charges the following for posters:
430
				base: $7.25/sq ft
431
				lamination: $3/sq ft
432
				mounting on a board: $8/sq ft

Testing:
435 8458 aaronmk
	On a development machine, you should put the following in your .profile:
436 8469 aaronmk
		umask ug=rwx,o= # prevent files from becoming web-accessible
437 8458 aaronmk
		export log= n=2
438
	Mapping process: make test
439
		Including column-based import: make test by_col=1
440
			If the row-based and column-based imports produce different inserted
441
			row counts, this usually means that a table is underconstrained
442
			(the unique indexes don't cover all possible rows).
443
			This can occur if you didn't use COALESCE(field, null_value) around
444
			a nullable field in a unique index. See sql_gen.null_sentinels for
445
			the appropriate null value to use.

	"Binary chop" debugging:
452
		(This is primarily useful for regressions that occurred in a previous
453
		revision, which was committed without running all the tests)
454
		svn up -r <rev>; make inputs/.TNRS/reinstall; make schemas/public/reinstall; make <failed-test>.xml

457 8471 aaronmk
			IMPORTANT: whenever you change the DirectorySlash setting for a
458
				directory, you *must* clear your browser's cache to ensure that
459
				a cached redirect is not used. this is because RewriteRule
460
				redirects are (by default) temporary, but DirectorySlash
461
				redirects are permanent.
