New subject: Wiping Eliot's versions Re: [squeak-dev] automated way to delete specific trunk packages?

9 May 2015

      Hi all,
I just tried wiping the versions Eliot asked to be removed.
I am able to remove the corresponding files from the disk and also remove
the Squeaksource version entries.
However, it seems that source.squeak.org is running on some kind of
Magma-backend, where wiping the versions is virtually impossible for me.
I put together the following script:
"=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-"
| project projectDir rawVersions fs candidates condition mcModel | 
project := SSRepository current projects detect: [:p |  p id = 'trunk'].
mcModel := (SSRepository storage respondsTo: #mcModelFor: ) ifTrue: [
    			SSRepository storage mcModelFor: project].
projectDir := SSFilesystem new projectDirectoryFor: project.
" we really want to delete the versions, so circumvent the accessor that filters them "
rawVersions := project instVarNamed: 'versions'.
condition := [:version |
    #('Collections.spur' 'Compiler.spur' 'Kernel.spur' 'System.spur')
    	anySatisfy: [:pat | version fileName beginsWith: pat]].
candidates :=  (rawVersions select: condition) values.
candidates
    do: [:version| | fileName |
    	fileName := version fileName.
    	Transcript showln: '> ', fileName. 		
    	version diffs copy keysDo: [:diffName |
    		projectDir deleteFileNamed: diffName ifAbsent: ["ok"].
    		Transcript showln: '    Removed ', diffName. 		
    		version diffs removeKey: diffName.
    		Transcript showln: '    Wiped ', diffName].
    	projectDir deleteFileNamed: fileName ifAbsent: ["ok"].
    	Transcript showln: '  Removed ', fileName. 
    	rawVersions removeKey: fileName.
    	" mcModel ifNotNil: [:m | m removeVersion: (project mcVersionFrom: version)]. " "<============== this does not work, chris"
    	Transcript showln: '  Wiped ', fileName]
    displayingProgress: [:version | 'Wiping ', version fileName].
self assert: [rawVersions noneSatisfy: condition].
"=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-"
At the position Indicated I tried removing the faulty version from the magma-based
data structures, but #removeVersion: tries to remove from an (magma)array, which fail.
I can't help any further here, sorry. Please somebody step in?
Best regards
    -Tobias
PS: I already backed up all affected files to ~squeaksoure/spur-backup

     Hi Eliot,
 If you can generate the files while they are in the repository (on the server), then you can save the time waiting for someone to
 delete them, because while you can't delete the files from the server, you can overwrite them. This wouldn't help with the .mcds, but
 I think those are not cached in the image, so deleting just the .mcds is probably a way easier thing to do.

I thought this too.  But when I tried doing this yesterday, and earlier, the files were not replaced.  I have a generated set waiting to upload as
soon as the old ones have been deleted.
I just reuploaded Collections-ul.625.mcz, and the server happily accepted it. It even sent a mail about it.
It's possible that it won't accept packages with different content, but it clearly accepts reuploads (which is a bug).

       Hi David,

           and to be very clear, the *only* packages to be deleted are those matching

       Collections.spur*
       Compiler.spur*
       Kernel.spur*
       System.spur*

             Hi David,

                 it is always possible to fix it another way but it would be hugely expensive.  The only affordable way I
             know is to delete the existing files and upload new ones.  Can someone who has access to the box simply login
             with either ash or FTP and delete them with a single command?  If I had access to the box that is what I would
             do.

                           I need to delete all the patched Spur packages in trunk to ensure that
                         correctly patched versions replace them.  Is there an automated way of
                         deleting packages on trunk?  I've used the web interface, but it'll take
                         all day :-(

                   I don't know the answer to your question, but if I look at the files in
                   the squeaksource repository, there are quite a few:

                     davidlewis@squeak-box4:/home/squeaksource/sso2/ss/trunk$ ls *spur*mcz | wc -l
                     246
                     davidlewis@squeak-box4:/home/squeaksource/sso2/ss/trunk$ ls *spur*mcd | wc -l
                     152
                     davidlewis@squeak-box4:/home/squeaksource/sso2/ss/trunk$ ls *spur*mcm | wc -l
                     33
                     davidlewis@squeak-box4:/home/squeaksource/sso2/ss/trunk$ ls *spur* | wc -l
                     450

                   Is it really necessary to delete all of this stuff? Or could we keep it as is, and
                   work around the problems in some other way?

                   Dave
