Upgrade Instructions

When upgrading from a previous release, you need to perform a so-called "fake migrate" before (!) running the pull-script.

Step by step:

1. Remove the compiled-folder
2. Edit models/00_db.py to add the ignore_field_case parameter to the DAL instantiation:

    db = DAL(db_string,
             check_reserved = check_reserved,
             pool_size = pool_size,
             migrate_enabled = migrate,
             fake_migrate_all = fake_migrate,
             lazy_tables = not migrate,

             # Add this line:
             ignore_field_case = db_type != "postgres",
             )

3. Edit models/000_config.py, and enable both migrate and fake_migrate settings:

settings.base.migrate = True
settings.base.fake_migrate = True

4. Run a noop-cycle:

cd /home/web2py
python web2py.py -S eden -M -R applications/eden/static/scripts/tools/noop.py

5. Disable both migrate and fake_migrate settings again:

settings.base.migrate = False
#settings.base.fake_migrate = True

6. Run the regular pull-script

Release 1.1.0-stable

New Production Release of Sahana Eden

Breaking Changes:

• All validators implementing validate-method (requires web2py-2.20.4 or later)

Feature Previews:

• Payment Services (PayPal) Integration

New Features:

• Generic disease template
• Scheduler task management through Admin UI

Core Changes and Enhancements:

• Component filters can be callables to construct complex join filters
• Hook for post-processing of selected resource data (postprocess_select)
• Support for custom messages to registration approver
• Support for custom functions to add/remove roles
• Scope for TUIDs in imports limited to same resource (relaxed uniqueness requirement)
• improved support for CSV templates at custom locations
• Role assignment by Non-Admins can be restricted to certain roles
• Ability to populate custom form from another record

Migration Instructions

This release requires web2py-2.20.4-stable (Commit #777c305) or later - upgrade support is available via our mailing list.

After upgrading to this release, a database migration is required. Using the pull service script does this automatically. Development instances which routinely run with settings.base.migrate=True will also update automatically. In all other cases, you may need to perform the migration manually - support is available via our mailing list.

Reminder

The target platform for Sahana Eden is now Python-3.6+ - we do no longer actively maintain nor verify Python-2 backwards-compatibility, nor provide support for Python-2 compatibility issues.

As of 2020, Python-2 itself, as well as all of the Python-2 support libraries we have been using, will no longer receive bug fixes or security updates, and may even no longer be available in package repositories - making it both untenable for production use, and impractical for continued development.
