Schema.pm

  • Required
  • Edit the big data structure in FS/FS/Schema.pm and add your tables and columns

Essential documentation

Skeleton class autogeneration

  • For new tables. Optional but recommended. We're trying to save you work!
  • Make sure the tables have been added to FS/FS/Schema.pm and run make install-perl-modules
  • From the root freeside directory, run bin/generate-table-module tablename for each table.
  • Edit the resulting FS/FS/table.pm
  • FS/MANIFEST is updated and FS/t/table.t is added. Don't forget to cvs add FS/FS/table.pm and FS/t/table.t and check them in.

Optional: Documentation looking for adopters or innovative autogeneration

  • sorta neglected: FS/FS.pm
  • somehwat neglected: httemplate/docs/schema.html
  • really neglected: httemplate/docs/schema.dia
