-
Upgrade Steps:
In order to update your Shareabouts codebase beyond commit 714c41f3, you will have to do the following:
Go into your flavor directory
$ cd flavors/myflavor
Move your existing pages into a folder called
jstemplates
$ mkdir jstemplates $ git mv static/pages/ jstemplates/
In your
config.yml
file, update your pages section. For example, if you had:pages: - title: _(About) slug: about url: /static/pages/overview.html start_page: true - title: _(Why Shareabouts?) slug: why url: /static/pages/why.html - title: _(Features) slug: features url: /static/pages/features.html - title: _(Feedback) external: true url: https://openplans.zendesk.com/anonymous_requests/new
You should change to:
pages: - title: _(About) slug: about name: overview start_page: true - title: _(Why Shareabouts?) slug: why - title: _(Features) slug: features - title: _(Feedback) external: true url: https://openplans.zendesk.com/anonymous_requests/new
Things to note:
- If the name of the template is the same as the page slug (e.g., "Features" has a slug 'features' and a filename of 'features.html') then you only need to specify the slug. If they differ (e.g., "About" has a slug 'about', but a file name of 'overview.html') you'll need to specify the page name in addition to the slug.
- External links are the same as they were before.
See the configuration documentation for more information.
-
New Features:
- Now deployable to Heroku!
- Add data layers to your map using Argo configurations
- Make your configuration strings translatable
- Upload images
-
Upgrade Steps:
-
The configuration values for setting the dataset root and api key have moved from the flavor config.yml file into the
settings
module. If your config.yml file contained the following:dataset: user-name/dataset-name api_root: http://api.shareabouts.org/api/v1/ dataset_api_key: abcd1234
You would now delete those values from the config file, and instead, in your local_settings.py file include the following:
SHAREABOUTS = { 'FLAVOR': 'flavor_name', 'DATASET_ROOT': 'http://api.shareabouts.org/api/v1/datasets/user-name/dataset-name/' 'DATASET_KEY': 'abcd1234', }
NOTE that the
SHAREABOUTS_FLAVOR
variable also moved in here as theFLAVOR
attribute.The format of the dataset root URL will usually be:
'http://<hostname>/api/v1/datasets/<username>/<dataset>/'
-
If you have a Shareabouts client deployed on DOTCLOUD, you will need to update your environment variables as follows:
SHAREABOUTS_FLAVOR
stays the sameSHAREABOUTS_API_KEY
becomesSHAREABOUTS_DATASET_KEY
SHAREABOUTS_API_ROOT
becomesSHAREABOUTS_DATASET_ROOT
, and should use the format above.

- Started keeping versions
We use this version scheme: 2.M.m-i
We'll be on 2 for a while, so we'll consider the 2nd number the major version. The major version changes when we introduce code that requires users to change their code to keep it working (backwards-incompatible change). The minor number may change when we add a significant feature. If a change will not break existing users' instances, but they may make a change to take advantage of some new functionality, the minor version should be bumped.
The incremental version will usually not change, though may be useful for support purposes. It may be a letter or a number or a datetime stamp. We'll figure that out when we have a use for it.
Whichever version number heading is at the top of this file is the current version of this project. If the version is Development (master), the last marked version is the next version number down.
Any time we introduce a new feature, or make a change in a current feature, we should mark a new version. Each version should correspond to a tag in the git repository.
- Update this file. Whatever's under the heading 'Development (master)' will now be under a new heading corresponding to the new version number.
- Commit this file, and create a tag labeled with the version number.
- Add a new 'Development (master)' section for recording ongoing changes.
