Moin, I'm trying to fix #712991, and got frustratingly stuck at what is clearly a lack of understanding from my part.
Drupal7 uses dbconfig-common to handle the database configuration. And Drupal7 handles SQLite as well as MySQL and PostgreSQL. But the configuration should be quite different (which is natural given the different nature of said DBMSs): My current debian/dbconfig.template reads (omitting comments and stuff): /------------------------------------------------------------ | $databases['default']['default'] = array( | 'driver' => '_DBC_DBTYPE_', | 'database' => '_DBC_DBNAME_', | 'username' => '_DBC_DBUSER_', | 'password' => '_DBC_DBPASS_', | 'host' => '_DBC_DBSERVER_', | 'port' => '_DBC_DBPORT_', | 'prefix' => '_DBC_BASEPATH_' | ); \------------------------------------------------------------ So, for the currently supported cases, the output is correct as follows: /------------------------------------------------------------ | $databases['default']['default'] = array( | 'driver' => 'mysql', | 'database' => 'mydbname', | 'username' => 'mydbuser', | 'password' => 'f00bar', | 'host' => 'localhost', | 'port' => '', | 'prefix' => '' | ); \------------------------------------------------------------ However, for SQLite, the output reads: /------------------------------------------------------------ | $databases['default']['default'] = array( | 'driver' => 'sqlite', | 'database' => 'drupal7', | 'username' => '', | 'password' => '', | 'host' => 'localhost', | 'port' => '', | 'prefix' => '/var/lib/dbconfig-common/sqlite/drupal7' | ); \------------------------------------------------------------ Most extra fields do not bother me (as they are ignored), but the 'prefix' field is ignored, and its contents should be prepended to the 'database'. What I would love to output is just: /------------------------------------------------------------ | $databases['default']['default'] = array( | 'driver' => 'sqlite', | 'database' => '/var/lib/dbconfig-common/sqlite/drupal7/drupal7' | ); \------------------------------------------------------------ Although I'd be reasonably happy with keeping the unneeded fields, outputting: /------------------------------------------------------------ | $databases['default']['default'] = array( | 'driver' => 'sqlite', | 'database' => '/var/lib/dbconfig-common/sqlite/drupal7/drupal7', | 'username' => '', | 'password' => '', | 'host' => '', | 'port' => '', | 'prefix' => '' | ); \------------------------------------------------------------ However, this depends on having some sort of conditional handling in the template. I could get around this by having something ugly like: /------------------------------------------------------------ | $dbs['mysql'] = array( | 'driver' => '_DBC_DBTYPE_', | 'database' => '_DBC_DBNAME_', | 'username' => '_DBC_DBUSER_', | 'password' => '_DBC_DBPASS_', | 'host' => '_DBC_DBSERVER_', | 'port' => '_DBC_DBPORT_', | 'prefix' => '_DBC_BASEPATH_' | ); | | $dbs['pgsql'] = array( | 'driver' => '_DBC_DBTYPE_', | 'database' => '_DBC_DBNAME_', | 'username' => '_DBC_DBUSER_', | 'password' => '_DBC_DBPASS_', | 'host' => '_DBC_DBSERVER_', | 'port' => '_DBC_DBPORT_', | 'prefix' => '_DBC_BASEPATH_' | ); | | $dbs['sqlite'] = array( | 'driver' => '_DBC_DBTYPE_', | 'database' => '_DBC_BASEPATH_/_DBC_DBNAME_', | ); | | $databases['default']['default'] = $dbs['_DBC_DBTYPE_']; \------------------------------------------------------------ But of course, having this in what should just be a _configuration file_ seems confusing and downright stupid to me :-/ Any ideas? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
