Research direction

Start with the upgrade steps in this issue and the linked docs/setup.sql section, then review the referenced appserver.js and feedland.js locations. The issue describes an implemented feature rather than a specific requested documentation change, so confirm the missing or outdated documentation and define what completion should verify.

Description

What is this?

There's a new release of FeedLand that can store static files in a MySQL table instead of the local filesystem or S3.

Converting data is automatic

You don't have to worry about converting the data from the previous format to the new format, we do that automatically.

How to

If you have an existing installation and want to upgrade --

  1. npm update to get the new versions of daveappserver (0.7.6) and feedland (0.5.74).
  2. Add "flStaticFilesInSql": true, to config.json.
  3. Run the SQL code to create the new staticfiles table in your feedland database.
Code review

If you want to review the new code (please do), the new stuff in appserver.js and feedland.js.
