[Maria-docs] 3-rd party tools docs
by Federico Razzoli 04 Oct '13

04 Oct '13

Hi all I would like to add to KB some info about 2 (great) tools: Shard Query and FlexViews. Shard Query is a sharding solution and FlexViews manages materialized views, both are written in PHP + SQL stored programs, BSD-new, copyright owner is Justin Swanhart: http://shardquery.com/ Since the KB contains info about some GUIs, I beleive that tools like these are appropriate too, but I think that some approval from the list is needed... Regards, Federico Razzoli

[Maria-docs] Adding versions to documentation
by Daniel Bartholomew 03 Oct '13

03 Oct '13

All, Whenever we document new features in the Knowledge Base, one thing we need to do is say when it was (or will be) introduced. For example, if I'm documenting a feature that was introduced in MariaDB 10.0.4, I would add something similar to the following to the top of the page: <<product mariadb from=10.0.4>> This feature was introduced in MariaDB 10.0.4 <</product>> If you're in a hurry and can't remember the <<product>> macro syntax, just use a sentence. We'll wrap it in a product macro later. Also, if you come across an article that doesn't have this information, please add it if you can, or send me an email so that I know it's missing. Thanks! -- Daniel Bartholomew, Sr Tech Writer / Sys Admin MariaDB

Re: [Maria-docs] Fwd: [JIRA] (MDEV-4928) Merge collation customization improvements
by Alexander Barkov 03 Oct '13

03 Oct '13

Hi Ian and Daniel, Can you please suggest how to document MDEV-4928? This is a merge-from-5.6 task. Probably, just mentioning it in ChangeLog and Release Notes is enough. Greetings.

[Maria-docs] Prep for MariaDB 5.5.33a
by Daniel Bartholomew 20 Sep '13

20 Sep '13

I've begun the prep for the special 5.5.33a release. Draft changelog and release notes are here: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb-5533a-changelog/ https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb-5533a-release-notes/ As always, fixes, additions, and such are welcome. I'm currently just waiting for buildbot to finish building and then I'll package up the release so that it can get mirrored over the next few hours and we can release tomorrow after some final testing of the finished repos. Assuming things go well, my plan is to release around noon US Eastern time. Thanks. -- Daniel Bartholomew, Sr Tech Writer / Sys Admin MariaDB

[Maria-docs] The KB has moved to mariadb.com
by Daniel Bartholomew 09 Sep '13

09 Sep '13

Many people have expressed to me and others working on MariaDB that it would make the most sense for the KB to be located under a MariaDB domain, so I'm happy to report that the KB is now at https://mariadb.com/kb If you've used the KB in the last couple of days, you've probably already noticed this as the change went live over the weekend. We've also updated the colors to match the new look of mariadb.com. We're working on a complete visual refresh to integrate it completely into the look and feel of the new site. But that will come later. For now it's the same KB with slightly different colors under a new domain. All https://kb.askmonty.org/... links should redirect automatically to the correct spot on the new site. Please let me know ASAP via email, IRC, Twitter, G+, or even carrier pigeon if anything isn't working. Thanks! -- Daniel Bartholomew Google+ - http://gplus.to/dbart Twitter - http://twitter.com/daniel_bart MariaDB: An Enhanced Drop-in Replacement for MySQL Website - http://mariadb.org Twitter - http://twitter.com/mariadb Google+ - http://google.com/+mariadb Facebook - http://fb.com/MariaDB.dbms Knowledgebase - http://kb.askmonty.org

[Maria-docs] sql_quote_show and SHOW CREATE PROCEDURE etc
by Ian Gilfillan 07 Sep '13

07 Sep '13

The SHOW CREATE PROCEDURE, SHOW CREATE FUNCTION and SHOW CREATE TRIGGER articles were documented with the change: The output of these statements is not affected by the sql_quote_show_create server system variable. (see for example https://kb.askmonty.org/en/show-create-procedure/revision/18704/18357/) I've reverted this, as this is not strictly-speaking true. The output is unreliably affected by the variable. In my testing, the output of ALL procedures was quoted when the MOST RECENT procedure was created with sql_quote_show=1, and the output of all was unquoted when the most recent procedure was created with sql_quote_show=0. A related bug is: http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=12719 but that bug report doesn't fully explain the (current) situation. The bug was also noted as "can't fix" in the comments. I didn't want to document the above without further testing (will the quoted status of functions being created affect procedures? Triggers? Events?), so just reverted for now, but it's worth further investigating. ian

The SQLSTATE page is created. I re-readed these pages a few times, but maybe someone else's revision would help...
