« Back to Update:Remora

This page is about the migration from the v1 database to the new (remora) database structures.

The Utility

The Python script that does the migration has all sorts of fun features, exciting options, as well as providing thrilling output. It is a wholesome command line program.

Installation

The script is called migration.py and lives in svn at .../trunk/services/bin

The script requires Python 2.4 to work correctly. Versions before 2.4 will likely produce syntax errors like this one:

  File "./migration.py", line 961
    delimitedListOfVersionIdsThatShouldBeDeleted = ",".join((str(x.id) for x in newDB.executeSql("select v.id from versions v where addon_id in (%s)" %  delimitedListOfAddons)))

SyntaxError: invalid syntax

The tests require the use of "generator expressions" that were not available until 2.4.

Also, keep in mind that you shouldn't expect existing data in the target database to persist. You should run the script on a clean target database.

The script has three Python library dependencies:

Use

Disclaimer

migration.py is a sharp edged tool.  It makes it easy to completely screw up the
data in the database, therefore it must be used carefully.  migration.py logs its
every use, so if something bad does happen, you can go back through the log to
see what went wrong and perhaps assign blame.

To use the script, just invoke it on the command line with appropriate options. The complete list of options can be found with this command:

./migration.py --help

Command Line Options

lars@deerlodge:~/project> ./migration.py -?
m1 0.2
This routine migrates data from the old AMO database schems to the new one.
        -a, --addons
                a quoted comma delimited list of the ids of addons OR the word
                "all" (default: all)
            --addonStatusWhenNoFilesApproved
                the status to set an addon if no files approved 
                (null, sandbox, pending, nominated, public, disabled)
                (default: sandbox)
            --addonStatusWhenSomeFilesApproved

                a progressive log of all runs of the migration script
                (default: ./migration.log)
        -A, --migrateAddons
                if present, this switch causes the addons in the "addons" 
                option list to be migrated
        -M, --migrateMetaData

Feedback

If we don't migrate add-ons which are only compatible with fx 1.0, then users can upload add-ons with the same em:ID and then users who might have had the old add-ons still installed but disabled (or who are still using fx 1.0) will be updated to the new one.

Previews

  • No previews were migrated -- but we need to solve this issue to help get images over.
  • In order to pull them we'd need to generate the URI and grab them so we can insert them into the proper blob in the previews table

Old db:

mysql> describe previews;
+------------+------------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| Field      | Type             | Null | Key | Default | Extra          |
+------------+------------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+
| PreviewID  | int(11)          |      | PRI | NULL    | auto_increment |
| PreviewURI | varchar(200)     |      |     |         |                |
| ID         | int(5)           |      | MUL | 0       |                |
| caption    | varchar(255)     |      |     |         |                |
| preview    | enum('YES','NO') |      |     | NO      |                |
+------------+------------------+------+-----+---------+----------------+

  • "PreviewURI" column points to the relative path of the preview.
  • "ID" is the FK to main.ID
  • "caption" would get ported to dynamic l10n
  • "preview" would be "highlight" in the new previews table

Moving to new db:

  • Use "https://addons.mozilla.org".$PreviewURI to grab the image and insert it into the filedata blog in the new db.
  • Filetype should be preserved as well so it can display properly in the images controller.

Duplicate Files

  • (clouserw) I think there were some duplications within the `files` table. For example:
mysql> select * from files where filename like 'stumbleupon-2.1%';
+--------+------------+-------------+---------------------------------+------+------+------------+--------+---------------------+---------------------+---------------------+

  • (morgamic) I think the script may have created duped rows in files because in the old 'version' table rows would be duped except for the app/appversion info -- in this database that data is spliced off. Might want to start there.
  • (lars) files are duplicated because sometimes the the same physical file is specified for more than one application (Firefox & Mozilla) - it is very easy to prevent this from resulting in two entries in to the file table. However, if the two entries may not match exactly (hash, approval, etc), the one seen later will superceed the one seen earlier...

Duplicate Categories/Tags

  • I haven't looked at the results since last week, but as I recall, there are many duplicate categories. My guess is that this is because in v1/v2, each application has to have its own category, so there might be an "Emo" category for Firefox and a different "Emo" category for Thunderbird, and the add-on is in both of them, but it only shows one because we grouped by name before. We will need to look at this and figure out whether to fix this in the code or migration. Fligtar 16:28, 27 December 2006 (PST)
  • (lars) the database schema for the `tags` table requires that we duplicate the entries because it has foreign keys to both the addontypes and applications tables. There are six tags called "Miscellaneous" because we need entries for the addontypes "extension" and "theme" for the applications "Firefox", "Mozilla" and "Thunderbird"

Other

  • There are blank filenames in the `files` table - is this a result of the migration?
    • (lars) empty filenames in the migration are faithful reproductions from the old database. There are entries in the olddb version table where the URI column is blank. What would you like me to do with them?
  • Some sha sums are calculated in the files table, some aren't. Since we're migrating data, would it be useful to calculate hashes while we're at it? (Would it be easily doable?)

Updates, 2007-02-07

Things that we need to tweak:

  • When there are multiple files per version/platform (one for each app, for example) AND there is at least one Firefox file, keep the firefox one and get rid of the non-firefox one.
        SELECT
           addons.guid as guid,
           addons.id as id,
           addons.addontype_id as type,
           applications.guid as appguid,
           appmin.version as min,
           appmax.version as max,
           files.filename,
           files.hash,
           versions.version as version
       FROM
           versions 
       INNER JOIN addons ON versions.addon_id = addons.id AND addons.guid = '{c45c406e-ab73-11d8-be73-000a95be3b12}' AND addons.status = 4
       INNER JOIN applications_versions ON applications_versions.version_id = versions.id 
       INNER JOIN applications ON applications_versions.application_id = applications.id  AND applications.guid = '{ec8030f7-c20a-464f-9b0e-13a3a9e97384}'       
       INNER JOIN appversions appmin ON appmin.id = applications_versions.min AND '2.0.0.2pre' >= appmin.version
       INNER JOIN appversions appmax ON appmax.id = applications_versions.max  
       INNER JOIN files ON files.version_id = versions.id AND (files.platform_id = 1 OR files.platform_id = '3' ) AND files.status = 4
       ORDER BY
           versions.id DESC
       LIMIT 1 

In the case above, when using the migrated data set, the -mz file is returned because it is selected at random. The file should actually be the -fx file.

  • Verify main.description is getting trimmed at max 250 chars. when migrating to summary

Final Migration

Clouserw performed the final migration on 2007-03-05:

I expect this script will be retired at this point, but just to be complete, this is what happened with the final run:

  • Initial AMOv2 database was loaded with a db dump from v2 from 2007-03-05 08:10am
  • Initial AMOv3 database was loaded with remora.sql from r2206
  • migration.conf was setup, etc. Final command run was ./migration.py -MAv --recalculateHash > migration.out 2>&1. We had to run the --recalculateHash flag so the script would download new addons (if it finds a hash in the db, it doesn't download the addon)
  • The following previews failed to migrate (but there are blank entries for them in the db):
 acid_burn-1.jpg for addon_id 453
 acid_burn-2.jpg for addon_id 453
 futurama-4.jpg for addon_id 1240
 kiminbu?-1.jpg for addon_id 2904
 ook?_video_ook!-4.jpg for addon_id 2584
 webos_xul#_extension-1.jpg for addon_id 2945
 ook?_video_ook!-5.jpg for addon_id 2584
 print_preview-2.jpg for addon_id 1778
  • Ran the supplemental SQL
  • ./migration.py --clearAddons -a `cat amov2_addons_marked_for_deletion` to remove the old disabled addons. Just some housekeeping.
