Most plugin updates needs database changes. Because of the missing upgrade functionality of the plugin API of eqdkp, i wrote a simple possibility to add SQL updates. Simply add this after the permission check on the settings page...
$rupdater = new PluginUpdater('raidbanker','rb_','raidbanker_config','includes');
1. Name of the plugin 2. Prefix of the plugin database tables 3. Name of the configuration Table without prefix 4. Name of the folder where the /updates folder is located
All you have to do now, is to set the output to the template and insert it into the settings.html template file
'UPDATE_BOX' => $rupdater->OutputHTML(),
Now, we’re ready to add the updates folder in the include(s) folder. Add a new file: versions.php. This files contains an array with ALL new versions require database updates. If a version bump do not need Database changes, simply do not add it to this file.
$up_updates = array( '2.0.0' => array( 'file' => '100_to_200.php', 'old' => '1.0.0', ), );
The structure is pretty simple:
$up_updates = array( 'NEW VERSION' => array( 'file' => 'FILE WITH DATABASE CHANGES', 'old' => 'OLD VERSION', ), // you can add more than one... for each version one value.... );
All you have to do now is to add the file provided in the updates folder. $new_version The new Version after the update $updateFunction Do you want to use an update function? If yes, provide an UNIQUE function name, p.e. “raidplan400to410” $updateSQL The update array, each value = one SQL statement
$new_version = '2.0.0'; $updateFunction = false; $updateSQL = array("ALTER TABLE `".$table_prefix."raidplan_raids` ADD raid_date_invite int(11) NOT NULL default '0';", "ALTER TABLE `".$table_prefix."raidplan_raid_attendees` ADD attendees_note text default NULL;", );
