Framework: - Per-plugin Alembic migration chains (ADR-008): every bundled plugin carries its own chain with a stamp-only anchor at the ownership cutover; new plugin schema lands in plugins/<name>/migrations/, never the core chain. Deploys add flask plugin upgrade-all. Fixed a latent bug in the shared alembic template (engine URL resolution) and taught the metadata filter to include FK-referenced core tables. - Frontend plugin route gating (ADR-009): plugin routes carry meta.plugin; a disabled plugin's pages redirect to the dashboard via a cached, fail-open check against the new public GET /api/plugins/enabled. - get_reports() plugin hook (contract 0.5.0 -> 0.6.0): plugins contribute report cards; warranty and toner cards moved off the hardcoded list. Reports: - Hub grouped by category with search; inline reports render at the top, are URL-backed (?report=id, back-button and deep links work), expose their server-side filter params as controls, and export CSV. Warranty and Toner pages gained CSV export. - Deleted the dead legacy Warranty Status report (always-zero buckets from a retired column). Theming and fonts: - Inter (variable) bundled locally via @fontsource, replacing the Google Fonts Roboto import - air-gapped installs now render correctly; tables use tabular numerals. - Optional brand_primary_dark_color, brand_accent_color, brand_sidebar_color settings applied to CSS vars at bootstrap. USB frontend repair (views were reading a dead legacy shape): - List/detail/form and the employee profile USB panels remapped to the real API shape (device_id/device_desc/checkinoutlog); employee panels now use /usb/checkouts endpoints; external-mode /usb/checkouts/active honors the badge filter; dead client methods pruned. Also: warranties list page no longer requires login (matches app convention); collector doc rewritten with a GE-Enforce integration guide and paste-ready PowerShell reporter; ADR index and CHANGELOG updated. Verified: 323 tests pass, naming/style green, frontend builds, plugin migration dry-run green on scratch MySQL. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Upgrading an existing site
This is the procedure for moving a running shopdb-flask instance to a newer version. For a first-time install use DEPLOY.md instead.
Each site is single-tenant (ADR-004), so an upgrade touches only that site's
own stack. Read the ADRs added since your last update (docs/adr/) and the
CHANGELOG.md before starting; a breaking ADR may require coordinated work.
Step 0: Back up first
Never upgrade without a fresh backup you have tested. Take a full database dump
and copy the instance/ directory. See BACKUP-RESTORE.md.
# Docker:
docker compose exec -T db mysqldump -u root -p"${MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD}" shopdb_flask | gzip > pre-upgrade-$(date +%F).sql.gz
cp -a instance/ instance-backup-$(date +%F)/
Step 1: Get the new code / image
git pull origin main
The application is distributed through the internal GE Aerospace Gitea; pull from there. There is no external image registry.
Step 2: Rebuild
The Docker image builds the Vue frontend in-image, so a container rebuild picks up frontend changes automatically:
docker compose build api
docker compose up -d api
Bare-metal / venv install: rebuild the frontend by hand and refresh Python dependencies:
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
cd frontend && npm ci && npm run build && cd ..
Step 3: Apply migrations
# Docker:
docker compose exec api flask db upgrade
docker compose exec api flask plugin upgrade-all
# venv:
flask db upgrade
flask plugin upgrade-all
flask db upgrade applies any new migrations in the core Alembic chain.
flask plugin upgrade-all then applies any new per-plugin migrations (each
bundled plugin owns its schema going forward - see ADR-008). Both are
idempotent; running them when already at head is a no-op.
Step 4: Re-seed permissions and settings
New versions may add RBAC permissions or default Settings keys. Both seeders are idempotent - they add anything missing and leave existing rows untouched, so your site's customized values are preserved.
# Docker:
docker compose exec api flask seed permissions
docker compose exec api flask seed settings
# venv:
flask seed permissions
flask seed settings
Step 5: Restart
docker compose restart api
# venv: restart your process manager, e.g. pm2 restart shopdb-flask-api shopdb-flask-ui
Confirm the app is healthy (login page renders, /api/auth/login returns a
VALIDATION_ERROR for an empty body rather than a 500).
Version-specific notes
Upgrading to v0.5.0 or later: bundled West Jefferson floor plan removed
Versions before 0.5 shipped the West Jefferson facility floor-plan PNGs as the
map default (/static/images/sitemap2025-light.png and -dark.png). v0.5+
removes those bundled PNGs and ships a generic placeholder SVG instead.
If your instance's map_blueprint_light / map_blueprint_dark Settings still
point at /static/images/sitemap2025-*, the map will 404 those images after the
upgrade. Re-upload your own floor plan in Settings > Map. Uploaded floor
plans are stored under instance/ and survive upgrades, so a site that already
uploaded its own plan is unaffected. Only instances still using the old bundled
default need to act.
To check what your instance points at:
docker compose exec api flask shell -c "from shopdb.core.models.setting import Setting; print(Setting.query.filter(Setting.key.like('map_blueprint%')).all())"
