Migrate to 1.3.0

Version 1.3.0 added recordings and several other things.

Migration

Generate the new migration and apply it:

bundle exec rails generate bigbluebutton_rails:install 1.3.0 --migration-only
bundle exec rake db:migrate

Locales

Copy the new locale file config/locales/en.yml to your application replacing the old one.

Views

Update your views. Version 1.3.0 added several new views for recordings and modified some of the already existent ones. If you wish to replace the old ones you can simply generate the new ones with:

bundle exec rails generate bigbluebutton_rails:views

Otherwise you'll have to copy the new ones and take a look at the changes in the old ones to make the same thing to your views. Here are some links to help you find out what changed:

• Diff with all changes from 1.2.0 to 1.3.0 (quite a lot of changes but you can just skip to the views with CTRL+F app/views/): https://github.com/mconf/bigbluebutton_rails/compare/v1.2.0...v1.3.0
• Diff with the changes in Mconf-Web when migrating to 1.3.0: https://github.com/mconf/mconf-web/compare/2bf0a38ad2d6...e7325b8a2769
  • Look at the changes in the views inside app/views/custom_bigbluebutton_servers/, app/views/custom_bigbluebutton_rooms/ and app/views/custom_bigbluebutton_recordings/

Cron job

BigbluebuttonRails now uses whenever to schedule a cron job that will synchronize the recordings database (read more about it at How recordings work). You can simply copy the file config/schedule.rb to your application's config directory and add whenever to your Gemfile:

gem 'whenever', :require => false
