As of now, I am thinking of a following solution. For the current
upgrade, I will have some code which will automatically evolve the
existing installation during startup
(i.e. DatabaseOpenedEvent) and actually assign a generation number
in the root[generations_key]['product_name'] key.
In the later upgrades, I will replace this with the regular schema
manager.
Comments from the zope 3 experts would be very useful.
well this is a real flaw with generations ...
in our projects we always add an initial .generations package to
avoid such cases, you can do this too, but it needs an intermediate
version but no "dummy" schema manager.
in generations/__init__.py you add
from zope.app.generations.generations import SchemaManager
pkg = 'myapp'
schemaManager = SchemaManager(
minimum_generation=0,
generation=0,
package_name=pkg)
and register the manager.
make a realease, this will set the generation to 0
then add your first "evolve1.py" to generations, the manager stays
the same - you only have to increase the generation number
