-Migrating to newer versions of Roundup
-======================================
-
-Please read each section carefully and edit your instance home files
-accordingly.
-
-This file contains information for users upgrading from:
- 0.4.0 -> 0.4.1
- 0.3.x -> 0.4.x
- 0.2.x -> 0.3.x
-
-Migrating from 0.4.1 to 0.4.2
-=============================
-
-Configuration
--------------
-
-The USER_INDEX definition introduced in 0.4.1 was too restrictive in its
-allowing replacement of 'assignedto' with the user's userid. Users must change
-the None value of 'assignedto' to 'CURRENT USER' (the string, in quotes) for
-the replacement behaviour to occur now.
-
-The new configuration variables are:
-
-- EMAIL_KEEP_QUOTED_TEXT
-- EMAIL_LEAVE_BODY_UNCHANGED
-- ADD_RECIPIENTS_TO_NOSY
-
-
-Mail Gateway
-------------
-
-You will need to copy the detectors from the distribution into your instance
-home detectors directory. The schema-specific code has been removed from the
-mail gateway and made into auditors:
-
-- nosyreactor.py has now got an updatenosy auditor which updates the nosy
- list with author, recipient and assignedto information.
-- statusauditor.py makes the unread or resolved -> chatting changes and
- presets the status of an issue to unread.
-
-
-Migrating from 0.4.0 to 0.4.1
-=============================
-
-Files storage
--------------
-
-Messages and files from newly created issues will be put into subdierectories
-in thousands e.g. msg123 will be put into files/msg/0/msg123, file2003
-will go into files/file/2/file2003. Previous messages are still found, but
-could be put into this structure.
-
-Configuration
--------------
-
-To allow more fine-grained access control, the variable used to check
-permission to auto-register users in the mail gateway is now called
-ANONYMOUS_REGISTER_MAIL rather than overloading ANONYMOUS_REGISTER. If the
-variable doesn't exist, then ANONYMOUS_REGISTER is tested as before.
-
-Configuring the links in the web header is now easier too. The following
-variables have been added to the classic instance_config.py:
-
- HEADER_INDEX_LINKS - defines the "index" links to be made available
- HEADER_ADD_LINKS - defines the "add" links
- DEFAULT_INDEX - specifies the index view for DEFAULT
- UNASSIGNED_INDEX - specifies the index view for UNASSIGNED
- USER_INDEX - specifies the index view for USER
-
-See the <roundup source>/roundup/templates/classic/instance_config.py for more
-information - including how the variables are to be set up. Most users will
-just be able to copy the variables from the source to their instance home. If
-you've modified the header by changing the source of the interfaces.py file in
-the instance home, you'll need to remove that customisation and move it into
-the appropriate variables in instance_config.py.
-
-The extended schema has similar variables added too - see the source for more
-info.
-
-Alternate E-Mail Addresses
---------------------------
-
-If you add the property "alternate_addresses" to your user class, your users
-will be able to register alternate email addresses that they may use to
-communicate with roundup as. All email from roundup will continue to be sent
-to their primary address.
-
-If you have not edited the dbinit.py file in your instance home directory,
-you may simply copy the new dbinit.py file from the core code. If you used
-the classic schema, the interfaces file is in:
-
- <roundup source>/roundup/templates/classic/dbinit.py
-
-If you used the extended schema, the file is in:
-
- <roundup source>/roundup/templates/extended/dbinit.py
-
-If you have modified your dbinit.py file, you need to edit the dbinit.py
-file in your instance home directory. Find the lines which define the user
-class:
-
- user = Class(db, "msg",
- username=String(), password=Password(),
- address=String(), realname=String(),
- phone=String(), organisation=String(),
- alternate_addresses=String())
-
-You will also want to add the property to the user's details page. The
-template for this is the "user.item" file in your instance home "html"
-directory. Similar to above, you may copy the file from the roundup source if
-you haven't modified it. Otherwise, add the following to the template:
-
- <display call="multiline('alternate_addresses')">
-
-with appropriate labelling etc. See the standard template for an idea.
-
-
-
-Migrating from 0.3.x to 0.4.x
-=============================
-
-Message-ID and In-Reply-To addition
------------------------------------
-0.4.0 adds the tracking of messages by message-id and allows threading
-using in-reply-to. Most e-mail clients support threading using this
-feature, and we hope to add support for it to the web gateway. If you
-have not edited the dbinit.py file in your instance home directory, you may
-simply copy the new dbinit.py file from the core code. If you used the
-classic schema, the interfaces file is in:
-
- <roundup source>/roundup/templates/classic/dbinit.py
-
-If you used the extended schema, the file is in:
-
- <roundup source>/roundup/templates/extended/dbinit.py
-
-If you have modified your dbinit.py file, you need to edit the dbinit.py
-file in your instance home directory. Find the lines which define the msg
-class:
-
- msg = FileClass(db, "msg",
- author=Link("user"), recipients=Multilink("user"),
- date=Date(), summary=String(),
- files=Multilink("file"))
-
- and add the messageid and inreplyto properties like so:
-
- msg = FileClass(db, "msg",
- author=Link("user"), recipients=Multilink("user"),
- date=Date(), summary=String(),
- files=Multilink("file"),
- messageid=String(), inreplyto=String())
-
-Also, configuration is being cleaned up. This means that your dbinit.py will
-also need to be changed in the open function. If you haven't changed your
-dbinit.py, the above copy will be enough. If you have, you'll need to change
-the line (round line 50):
-
- db = Database(instance_config.DATABASE, name)
-
-to:
-
- db = Database(instance_config, name)
-
-
-Configuration
--------------
-INSTANCE_NAME and EMAIL_SIGNATURE_POSITION have been added to the
-instance_config.py. The simplest solution is to copy the default values
-from template in the core source.
-
-The mail gateway now checks ANONYMOUS_REGISTER to see if unknown users are to
-be automatically registered with the tracker. If it is set to "deny" then
-unknown users will not have access. If it is set to "allow" they will be
-automatically registered with the tracker.
-
-
-CGI script roundup.cgi
-----------------------
-The CGI script has been updated with some features and a bugfix, so you should
-copy it from the roundup cgi-bin source directory again. Make sure you update
-the ROUNDUP_INSTANCE_HOMES after the copy.
-
-
-Nosy reactor
-------------
-The nosy reactor has also changed - copy the nosyreactor.py file from the core
-source roundup/templates/[schema]/detectors/nosyreactor.py to your instance
-home "detectors" directory.
-
-
-HTML templating
----------------
-The field() function was incorrectly implemented - links and multilinks now
-display as text fields when rendered using field(). To display a menu (drop-
-down or select box) you need to use the menu() function.
-
-
-
-Migrating from 0.2.x to 0.3.x
-=============================
-
-Cookie Authentication changes
------------------------------
-0.3.0 introduces cookie authentication - you will need to copy the
-interfaces.py file from the roundup source to your instance home to enable
-authentication. If you used the classic schema, the interfaces file is in:
-
- <roundup source>/roundup/templates/classic/interfaces.py
-
-If you used the extended schema, the file is in:
-
- <roundup source>/roundup/templates/extended/interfaces.py
-
-If you have modified your interfaces.Client class, you will need to take
-note of the login/logout functionality provided in roundup.cgi_client.Client
-(classic schema) or roundup.cgi_client.ExtendedClient (extended schema) and
-modify your instance code apropriately.
-
-
-Password encoding
------------------
-This release also introduces encoding of passwords in the database. If you
-have not edited the dbinit.py file in your instance home directory, you may
-simply copy the new dbinit.py file from the core code. If you used the
-classic schema, the interfaces file is in:
-
- <roundup source>/roundup/templates/classic/dbinit.py
-
-If you used the extended schema, the file is in:
-
- <roundup source>/roundup/templates/extended/dbinit.py
-
-
-If you have modified your dbinit.py file, you may use encoded passwords:
-
- 1. Edit the dbinit.py file in your instance home directory
- 1a. At the first code line of the open() function:
-
- from roundup.hyperdb import String, Date, Link, Multilink
-
- alter to include Password, as so:
-
- from roundup.hyperdb import String, Password, Date, Link, Multilink
-
- 1b. Where the password property is defined (around line 66):
-
- user = Class(db, "user",
- username=String(), password=String(),
- address=String(), realname=String(),
- phone=String(), organisation=String())
- user.setkey("username")
-
- alter the "password=String()" to "password=Password()":
-
- user = Class(db, "user",
- username=String(), password=Password(),
- address=String(), realname=String(),
- phone=String(), organisation=String())
- user.setkey("username")
-
- 2. Any existing passwords in the database will remain cleartext until they
- are edited. It is recommended that at a minimum the admin password be
- changed immediately:
-
- roundup-admin -i <instance home> set user1 password=<new password>
-
-
-Configuration
--------------
-FILTER_POSITION, ANONYMOUS_ACCESS, ANONYMOUS_REGISTER have been added to
-the instance_config.py. Simplest solution is to copy the default values from
-template in the core source.
-
-MESSAGES_TO_AUTHOR has been added to the IssueClass in dbinit.py. Set to 'yes'
-to send nosy messages to the author. Default behaviour is to not send nosy
-messages to the author. You will need to add MESSAGES_TO_AUTHOR to your
-dbinit.py in your instance home.
-
-
-CGI script roundup.cgi
-----------------------
-There have been some structural changes to the roundup.cgi script - you will
-need to install it again from the cgi-bin directory of the source
-distribution. Make sure you update the ROUNDUP_INSTANCE_HOMES after the
-copy.
