     Installation Instructions

General Instructions for Deployment of a New Release
====================================================

 1. Make a directory to hold the new release::
      sudo su - -s /bin/bash wwwrun
      mkdir /a/www/ietf-datatracker/${releasenumber}
      cd /a/www/ietf-datatracker/${releasenumber}

 2. Fetch the release tarball from github 
    (see https://github.com/ietf-tools/datatracker/releases)::

      wget https://github.com/ietf-tools/datatracker/releases/download/${releasenumber}/release.tar.gz
      tar xzvf release.tar.gz
  
 3. Copy ietf/settings_local.py from previous release::

      cp ../web/ietf/settings_local.py ietf/

 4. Setup a new virtual environment and install requirements::

      python3.9 -mvenv env
      source env/bin/activate
      pip install -r requirements.txt
      pip freeze > frozen-requirements.txt

    (The pip freeze command records the exact versions of the Python libraries that pip installed.
     This is used by the celery docker container to ensure it uses the same library versions as
     the datatracker service.)

 5. Move static files into place for CDN (/a/www/www6s/lib/dt):

      ietf/manage.py collectstatic

 6. Run system checks (which patches the just installed modules)::

      ietf/manage.py check

 7. Switch to the docker directory and update images:

      cd /a/docker/datatracker
      docker image tag ghcr.io/ietf-tools/datatracker-celery:latest datatracker-celery-fallback
      docker image tag ghcr.io/ietf-tools/datatracker-mq:latest datatracker-mq-fallback
      docker-compose pull

 8. Stop and remove the async task containers:
    Wait for this to finish cleanly. It may take up to about 10 minutes for the 'stop' command to
    complete if a long-running task is in progress.

      docker-compose down

 9. Stop the datatracker 
    (consider doing this with a second shell at ietfa to avoid the exit and shift back to wwwrun)

      exit
      sudo systemctl stop datatracker.socket datatracker.service
      sudo su - -s /bin/bash wwwrun

 10. Return to the release directory and run migrations:

      cd /a/www/ietf-datatracker/${releasenumber}
      ietf/manage.py migrate

      Take note if any migrations were executed.
 
 11. Back out one directory level, then re-point the 'web' symlink::

      cd ..
      rm ./web; ln -s ${releasenumber} web

 12. Start the datatracker service (it is no longer necessary to restart apache) ::

      exit # or CTRL-D, back to root level shell
      sudo systemctl start datatracker.service datatracker.socket

 13. Start async task worker and message broker:

      cd /a/docker/datatracker
      bash startcommand

 14. Verify operation:

      http://datatracker.ietf.org/

 15. If install failed and there were no migrations at step 9, revert web symlink and docker update and repeat the
     restart in steps 11 and 12. To revert the docker update:

          cd /a/docker/datatracker
          docker-compose down
          docker image rm ghcr.io/ietf-tools/datatracker-celery:latest ghcr.io/ietf-tools/datatracker-mq:latest
          docker image tag datatracker-celery-fallback ghcr.io/ietf-tools/datatracker-celery:latest
          docker image tag datatracker-mq-fallback ghcr.io/ietf-tools/datatracker-mq:latest
          cd -

     If there were migrations at step 10, they will need to be reversed before the restart at step 12.
     If it's not obvious what to do to reverse the migrations, contact the dev team.

 
Patching a Production Release
=============================

Sometimes it can prove necessary to patch an existing release.
The following process should be used:

 1. Code and test the patch on an copy of the release with any
    previously applied patches put in place.

 2. Produce a patch file, named with date and subject::

      $ git diff > 2013-03-25-ballot-calculation.patch

 3. Move the patch file to the production server, and place it in 
    '/a/www/ietf-datatracker/patches/'

 4. Make a recursive copy of the production code to a new directory, named with a patch number.  

      /a/www/ietf-datatracker $ rsync -a web/ ${releasenumber}.p1/

 5. Apply the patch::

      /a/www/ietf-datatracker $ cd ${releasenumber}.p1/      
      /a/www/ietf-datatracker/${releasnumber}.p1 $ patch -p1 \
			< ../patches/2013-03-25-ballot-calculation.patch

    This must not produce any messages about failing to apply any chunks;
    if it does, go back to 1. and figure out why.

 6. Edit ``.../ietf/__init__.py`` in the new patched release to indicate the patch
    version in the ``__patch__`` string.

 7. Stop the async task container (this may take a few minutes if tasks are in progress):

      cd /a/docker/datatracker
      docker-compose stop celery

 8. Change the 'web' symlink, reload etc. as described in
    `General Instructions for Deployment of a New Release`_.

 9. Start async task worker:

      cd /a/docker/datatracker
      bash startcommand
