 Alembic supports migration branches. The advanced services (FW/LB/VPNaaS) have

 now. I hope to work on a more pluggable framework in the future.

I could add another entry in neutron/common/repos.py

 For Kilo you could try to monkeypatch neutron's script to support your
 plugin's migration. Or you can try to do something like the group-based-policy
 project does, by consuming the neutron migration script[1]. (GBP also has its
 own migration branch.)

Actually, these two methods doesn't have much difference.  cli.py
sets 'script_location', env.py sets 'version_table' (old
python-migrate had this option in migrate.cfg).  It doesn't look
like as alembic's migration branches at all, just isolated
configurations in one database.

Thank you, this is exactly what I was looking for.

[openstack-dev] [Nutron] Extending database schema from 3rd-party plugin

2015-05-12 Thread Alexey I. Froloff
Greetings!

I am developing ML2 type/mech plugin for some very special
environment.  Because this environment is very special (using
addressing based on physical hypervisor location), it will be
separate package, I don't plan to alter Neutron code.  And this
plugin needs to store some information in Neutron database.  Not
altering existing tables, but adding couple.

I'm not very good with alembic (better say not good at all),
maybe someone can enlight me, if this possible at all and how to
make it with minimal damage.  I am writing this plugin for Kilo
release, and this installation is supposed to be further updated
to next OpenStack releases.
