ContributionTracking
ContributionTracking is currently an extension that is deployed on the cluster, and on payments. It mostly allows us to save donation metadata to a table which currently resides not in the fundraising civicrm database, but in the drupal database for the drupal instance inside which civicrm is a module. The placement of this table in a random drupal database is clearly very silly, and as such it needs to be moved elsewhere.
Plan To Change The Contribution Tracking Table
Moving to its own database
- Create a new ContributionTracking database
- Import a dump of the old ContributionTracking table to the new database
- Alter the auto increment on the ContributionTracking's id, to be significantly higher than the current highest id
- Grant mysql privileges to user@host that need various levels of access to the new ContributionTracking database
- Change the references to the ContributionTracking db. This process will have to wait for a cluster deploy.
- Disable the queue consumer
- Update the references and credentials in the following places:
- On the Cluster
- Payments Cluster
- All Drupal/Civi Modules
- Re-enable the Queue Consumer
- Watch the old database to determine that nothing is still updating the old table
- Once you have determined that there is no movement on the old table, import all records that were created between the initial import, and the switch-over.
- Kill the old table
Schema Changes to the new ContributionTracking DB
- Analyze the ContributionTracking extension, determine what must be changed so the actual schema change can be done code-first or DB-first, and make the necessary changes
- Push just those changes out to the cluster
- Do the same analysis and make the same changes for extensions on the payments cluster which require ContributionTracking.
- Push those changes out to the payments cluster.
- Do the same analysis and make the same changes for all drupal/civi modules.
- Push those changes out to aluminium.
- Get the schema change ready to go
- Get the old crufty code cleanup ready to go
- Do the schema change and old crufty code cleanup in any order (shouldn't matter if you did the rest of this properly).
