Re: Best stable version for production ecommerce web site
Posted by Bruno Busco <br...@gmail.com>.
I like this production/development patching system, I was also looking for
an efficient way to follow ofbiz improvements while keeping my own
modifications, great!
BTW I find some difficulties working with binary files and patches (sorry if
OT); for instance my development patch should add to my working copy the
mysql-connector-java-5.1.5-bin.jar file in the entity lib folder.
I cannot make TortoiseSVN patch command to handle this; in the patch file I
find:
Index: entity/lib/jdbc/mysql-connector-java-5.1.5-bin.jar
===================================================================
Cannot display: file marked as a binary type.
svn:mime-type = application/octet-stream
Property changes on: entity\lib\jdbc\mysql-connector-java-5.1.5-bin.jar
___________________________________________________________________
Name: svn:mime-type
+ application/octet-stream
Do you think this is something that can be fixed? Or should I go with a
batch file that applies the patch for the text files and than add binary
files by copying them?
Thank you,
-Bruno

The folder that contains our custom code is kept in a local SVN repository.

Adrian,
When I thought through your method more and under what circumstances I
might adopt it I was a little unsure as to whether you do any source
control on your own changes other than effectively creating the patch.
Personally I like to have my mods committed to a source control system
as well so I can see history and manage change etc but wasn't sure if
you are doing that and how?
I suppose as your custom app is not part of the standard SVN it could be
added to another local SVN server...although if you want to get the
product version on another machine you've got to checkout a specific
trunk revision that you need to document somewhere as well as apply the
production patch and checkout the custom app SVN which could be tagged
in the local SVN.
Sorry Adrian email is rambling a bit as I think aloud. I like your idea
as it is certainly simper and as Jacques suggested it's good to add to
the list of options people can look at because it's very much an area
where people can choose to use a method that suits them or even
different for different projects.
Thanks,
Ray

If anyone finds it useful, sure - go ahead.
The funny thing is, when I first got started with OFBiz I didn't ask
anyone how they were doing it. I came up with this system on my own, so
I don't know if it's good or bad.

Maybe we could create a hat page for

Re: Best stable version for production ecommerce web site

That's similar to how I do it.
1. Update local copy from the trunk.
2. Apply the development patch.
3. Test the local copy. If all is okay, then
4. Revert local copy, apply production patch.
5. Deploy local copy to the server. I have a script that does an SVN
export, then zips it into a single file. Then I ftp the zipped file to
the server and unzip it.

Re: Best stable version for production ecommerce web site
Posted by Eric DE MAULDE <er...@free.fr>.
Hi,
Do you have a production server working every time (without failure) ?
If an updated version of the trunk contains a bug, what happens ?
Is the following system realistic ?
I develop with a local copy from the OFBiz Trunk.
*** At once this local copy is my working copy (client) from the official
repository (OFBiz trunk server)
and the server (repository) to my OFBiz production copy in the
hosting computer.
When I stabilize my local development copy (without bug)
I upate my hosting production copy
Then again I update and stabilize my local development copy
...
Thanks
Eric

Re: Best stable version for production ecommerce web site

Here is the system I use, for what it's worth:
1. I keep two main patch files - basic_development.patch and
basic_production.patch. Both patch files change the OFBiz configuration
to work with our network environment, each one using settings chosen for
the task - development or production. Only one patch is used at a time.
2. I keep all of my custom development in a single folder under the
ofbiz/applications folder. I avoid touching the trunk code at all costs
- except for the configuration patches mentioned above.
3. To keep my local copy updated, I do an SVN revert (to reverse the
changes made by the patch), then an SVN update, then re-apply the patch.
My custom development folder is untouched by the SVN commands, because
SVN doesn't "know" about the folder.
This works really well and it doesn't involve any complicated merging -
since the configuration files changed by the patches seldom change in
the trunk.

Thank you very much for your advices
I go to study in order to use and maintain a custom trunk !

The release branch would hopefully be more stable, but it will be
missing all of the features added to the main trunk since it branched.
At the end of the day the choice is yours, if you are going to do enough
testing then no reason you can't snapshot the trunk version test what
you need to use, fix (and submit patches) and get the best of the recent
changes.

PS: I don't think there is a "stable" tag, just the release branch and
trunk.
PPS: There have been rumours of doing a new release branch sometime
soonish but no commitments on that one!
