Hi all.
While writing the PostgresV3 help, I am following Balázs Kósi-2 example here: http://forum.world.st/Status-of-PostgresV3-td4780110.html
In the section on SchemaMirror
To create a schema mirror, subclass PG3SchemaMirror and implement its pool and schema class side methods.
YourSchemaMirror class >> pool
^YourConnectionPool default
YourSchemaMirror class >> schema
^’schema_name’
Schema mirrors mirror the functions in your database and provide an interface to call them. There is a little tool to inspect the differences between the methods of the schema mirror and the functions in the database, which can be invoked by:
YourSchemaMirror browseChanges
You can up and download functions via this interface. In earlier times we would write the database functions in pgAdmin3 and download them into the image. Nowadays we use the smalltalk browser to write the plpgsql code. You can set the autocommit behavior with:
YourSchemaMirror commitOnAccept: true I have this beautiful tool that lists all the functions in my schema and it has buttons "Download All" and "Upload All" etc.
My question are "Which way is Up" and "Which way is Down"?
What I want to accomplish is this direction [My database] ---->[Squeak]
I am guessing that I want to Upload, BUT for documentation purposes I want to be clear. Also, I don't want to have to re-import the functions.
thx
Poking around a bit, it appears that down is up and up is down.
If you go to
PG3SchemaChanges >> uploadAll
changes do: [ :each | each isRemoteOnly ifFalse: [ each saveToDatabase ] ]. self refresh
PG3SchemaChanges >>downloadAll
changes do: [ :each | each isLocalOnly ifFalse: [ each saveIntoSchemaMirror ] ]. self refresh
yikes. I am afraid to push the buttons!

Download means to download the functions from the database server into your image. Upload means the opposite direction.
You can also do this method-by-method using the context menu of the listed functions. There's also an option there to delete the function from the database.

So, you want to Download.
Levente
thx
Thank you Levente.
BTW, I have started the PostgresV3-Help classes and would like to start committing them to the project.
Can you recommend a way to get the mcz submitted?
Perhaps I can create a personal github account and put it there for you guys to grab?
thx

If you have an account on squeaksource.com, I can add you to the project as developer, so that you can commit the mcz directly to the repository.
Levente

Hi Levente.
I have modified one of the PostgresV3 help pages on schema mirror and added your clarification:
Schema mirrors mirror the functions in your database and provide an interface to call them. There is a little tool to inspect the differences between the methods of the schema mirror and the functions in the database, which can be invoked by:
YourSchemaMirror browseChanges
You can up and download functions via this interface.
Download means to download the functions from the database server into your image. Upload means to upload from Sqeuak to the database.
Download = DB->Squeak Upload = Squeak->DB.
You can also do this method-by-method using the context menu of the listed functions. There''s also an option there to delete the function from the database.
In earlier times we would write the database functions in pgAdmin3 and download them into the image. Nowadays we use the smalltalk browser to write the plpgsql code and upload them to the DB.
Cheers.
