Change management for Aller Retour database

Change management for Aller Retour database

Getting started

Install git, postgresql, perl, cpan, DBD::Pg, cpanminus and sqitch. Don't forget that you have to be root to do that. For installaton process on OS different from CentOS see sqitch download page.

yum install git perl-devel perl-CPAN postgresql perl-DBD-Pg
curl -L https://cpanmin.us | perl - --sudo App::cpanminus
cpanm --quiet --notest App::Sqitch

If there is problem installing cpan modules, check if gcc is installed.

gcc -v
yum install gcc

Login as postgres admin.

su - postgres
psql

Create new database user with the same name as your Aller Retour OS user.

CREATE USER aller_retour WITH PASSWORD "Your password goes here";

Create database.

-- If you have different databases do it for each of them
CREATE DATABASE aller_retour;
REVOKE ALL ON DATABASE aller_retour FROM public;
ALTER DATABASE aller_retour OWNER TO aller_retour;

Now you can login with peer authentication as aller_retour user with ar_* databases.

Login with aller_retour user in your command line and download git repo.

su - aller_retour
mkdir dev
cd dev
git clone [e-mail]:allerretour/db-plan.git

Add your name and email to sqitch user level config.

sqitch config --user user.name 'Firstname Lastname'
sqitch config --user user.email '[e-mail]'

Copy example configuration file to sqitch.conf and make necessary changes.

cd db-plan
cp sqitch.example.conf sqitch.conf
vi sqitch.conf

Check if everything works.

sqitch status

You should see something like that:

# On database aller_retour
No changes deployed

Hooray! You can now start working!

For different login methods see sqitch auth manual or just change uri parameter in target section of config.
