Usage

This extension allows you to "hotfix" urgent issues on your Foswiki system. It has been tested on Foswiki 1.1.0 and beyond. It does not work on Foswiki 1.0.x.

When this extension is installed, it adds some required libraries to your Foswiki system, and includes a plugin to display an inventory of patches on the system. This extension does not ship with any patches. this extension will be identified as a dependency of the actual patch, so that necessary infrastructure is installed.

Patches are only applied if the target file is an exact match to the original file. There is no attempt to do "fuzzy" patching.

There is no "dependency" between patches. Patches are installed in order of their patch file name.

Patches will be mapped from the default Foswiki filename to the directory location used on the target system.

Before any file is patched, a backup is copied to working/configure/backup/<Itemxxxx-nnn-YYYMMDD-HHMMSS>. If archive tools are found on the system, a zip or tar archive is created of the backup.

Installation

Patches are applied during the POSTINSTALL exit, and removed in the PREUNINSTALL exit. You must install this extension using the "Extension Installer" to get automatic patching. If this extension is installed by direct unzip / tar -x, or using pseudo_install.pl, patches will not be applied and will have to be manually patched using the patch tool.

Manual installation

unzip or tar -x the extension archive. It can be extracted into the root of the foswiki installation if the directory paths use the default location. The structure of a typical patch:
|-- data
|   |-- System
|       |-- PatchRelease01x01Contrib.txt
|-- lib
|   |-- Foswiki
|       |-- Contrib
|           |-- PatchItem13775Contrib.pm
|           |-- PatchRelease01x01Contrib
|               |-- DEPENDENCIES
|-- working
    |-- configure
        |-- patch
            |-- Item11267-110.patch    (A unique version of each patch for each applicable Foswiki version.)
            |-- Item11267-111.patch
            |-- Item11267-....patch
            |-- Item12616-118.patch
            |-- Item13775-118.patch
            |-- Item13775-119.patch
            |-- Item13777-118.patch
            |-- Item13777-119.patch

The files in the working/configure/patch directory are the actual patches. If a collection of related files is patched in a single file, they can be manually applied by changing to the root of the install and running:
patch -p0 < working/configure/patch/Item54321-001.patch

By a "collection of related files", Item12345-001.patch might contain patches for lib/Foswiki.pm and lib/Foswiki/Render.pm. These could be appplied directly. But if Item12345-002.patch contained different versions of patches for the same file, ex. lib/Foswiki.pm for 1.1.9, and lib/Foswiki.pm for 1.1.8, then the file would have to be split apart in order to apply it manually.
