Ensure db:seed runs before spree_sample:load by lsizani · Pull Request #4907 · solidusio/solidus

lsizani · 2023-02-06T15:28:54Z

Summary

When running bundle exec rake spree_sample:load against an empty database, an exception is raised in db/samples/tax_rates.rb on account of missing a Spree::Zone with the name "North America.

In this PR we:

Add db:seed as a dependent task of spree_sample:load
Check that Spree::Zone "North America" is present in db/samples/tax_rates.rb before running the rest of the seed file. This makes it consistent with db/samples/shipping_methods.rb

Thanks a lot for your collaboration, @lsizani 🙌 🙌 It's a great and long-due improvement 🙂

I left some suggestions. We can probably take the occasion to leverage the new flexibility also in the installer by removing the && @load_seed_data check here:

solidus/core/lib/generators/solidus/install/install_generator.rb

Line 67 in 26a867f

@load_sample_data = options[:sample] && @run_migrations && @load_seed_data

core/app/models/spree/order_merger.rb

sample/lib/spree/sample.rb

sample/solidus_sample.gemspec

sample/spec/lib/load_sample_spec.rb

Thanks! I left a comment. Also, I'm curious about what happens if db:seed and sample:load are run independently, one after the other. Is db:seed executed twice in that case?

It will run db:seed twice in that case. I checked on this and I can confirm that the current seeds can be run multiple times without raising errors or duplicating data.

@lsizani do you know if we have any spec that verify we can run seeds multiple times without breaking or creating duplicate records?

We do not... But I'm sure I can write one

core/spec/generators/solidus/install/install_generator_spec.rb

🎉 Great change! LGTM!

Thanks, it's perfect! ❤️ Last ask, could you please rebase from master so that CI runs? 🙏

I just noticed that with this change in the solidus installer, we are executing seeds twice: once during the seeds step and another during the samples step.

I think this is not ideal, no matter if it's safe to run seeds multiple times. Maybe we can merge populate_seed_data and load_sample_data to call a single rake command in case we want both?

kennyadsl · 2023-06-13T12:18:44Z

Hey @lsizani! I lost track of this PR, I didn't notice you updated it following my suggestions. I will re-review it now, in the meantime there are some conflict with the main branch to address, if you have time for a rebase. Thanks again!

kennyadsl

Left some questions, thanks again Lunga!

sample/spec/lib/load_sample_spec.rb

+describe "Load seeds multiple times" do
+  it "doesn't duplicate records" do
+    4.times do
+      pid = fork { Spree::Core::Engine.load_seed }


Will this local variable be overridden at each cycle? Might this interfere with the process killing in the ensure block (it only always kills the last process but previous ones might still be executing)?

kennyadsl · 2023-06-13T12:23:06Z

sample/db/samples/shipping_methods.rb

 rescue ActiveRecord::RecordNotFound
-  puts "Couldn't find 'North America' zone. Did you run `rake db:seed` first?"
-  puts "That task will set up the countries, states and zones required for Spree."
+  puts <<~TEXT


Love this DX, thanks!

kennyadsl · 2023-06-13T12:23:59Z

sample/spec/lib/load_sample_spec.rb

-    expect {
-      Spree::Core::Engine.load_seed
+    expect do
+      pid = fork { Spree::Core::Engine.load_seed }


Why do we need a separate process here instead of just running load_seed and load_sample one after the other?

We do not feel comfortable merging this in this state. Please feel free to open it if this issues is still persisting.
