--- Comment #11 from Martin Renvoize <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Katrin Fischer from comment #9) > I think reinstalling might be a real issue: What if the plugin comes with > its own data, will it get killed? So the re-installing all really isn't a change.. that's always happened.. for any plugin you installed we would iterate and re-install all other plugins at the same time. By 'install' I mean literally telling Koha that the plugin exists and what methods are available within it.. we update the plugin_methods table but we do not update any internal plugin data, that all remains intact. We will trigger the 'install' or 'upgrade' methods from within the plugin if required (i.e. we check versions within the database and only run the install if it has not been run before, or the upgrade if we've caught a version change). It is up to the plugin author to make sure their 'upgrade' method doesn't splat older data during such actions. In short.. I think the re-install loop is a non-issue.. it's a minor annoyance performance wise but it shouldn't cause any harm and in reality is unrelated to this patch.. Clearly the fact that I output the actual results of the script run is confusing people :( -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. _______________________________________________ Koha-bugs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.koha-community.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/koha-bugs website : http://www.koha-community.org/ git : http://git.koha-community.org/ bugs : http://bugs.koha-community.org/
