tasks

• generate metadata from core+available apps (apps are temporary enabled during the process if needed)
• download file from dl.nc.c
• extract data and compare with already applied Migrations
• emulate a generic entry in case a new Attribute is implemented in a future version
• display data using the occ command
• making endpoint to display result on the webclient (not done yet, but easily doable as code is now out of Command file)
• commenting and polishing the code

new occ commands

• running ./occ migrations:generate-metadata to create a JSON file
• running ./occ migrations:preview <version> to display migration that will be executed if an upgrade to version is initiated

details

When adding some attributes to a migration:

#[DropTable(table: 'old_table')]
#[CreateTable(table: 'new_table', description: 'Table is used to store things, but also to get more things', notes: ['this is a notice', 'and another one, if really needed'])]
#[AddColumn(table: 'my_table')]
#[AddColumn(table: 'my_table', name: 'another_field')]
#[AddColumn(table: 'other_table', name: 'last_one', type: ColumnType::DATE)]
#[AddIndex(table: 'my_table')]
#[AddIndex(table: 'my_table', type: IndexType::PRIMARY)]
#[DropColumn(table: 'other_table')]
#[DropColumn(table: 'other_table', name: 'old_column', description: 'field is not used anymore and replaced by \'last_one\'')]
#[DropIndex(table: 'other_table')]
#[ModifyColumn(table: 'other_table')]
#[ModifyColumn(table: 'other_table', name: 'this_field')]
#[ModifyColumn(table: 'other_table', name: 'this_field', type: ColumnType::BIGINT)]

steps to execute implemented new commands:

when using an install made from repository (with apps/testing/ available):

generate metadata from current install:

./occ migrations:generate-metadata > /tmp/nc.metadata

enable testing app:

./occ app:enable testing

delete migration from db:

DELETE FROM oc_migrations WHERE `oc_migrations`.`app` = 'testing' AND `oc_migrations`.`version` = '30000Date20240102030405'

preview future migrations:

./occ migrations:preview /tmp/nc.metadata
