The community database is the foundation for a set of social software applications. The primary focus is a user roster, a node roster, and a whuffie/mojo calculation and management system. The database is currently implemented in SQL tables on postgresql.

General table design notes

When indexing one table to another table, ie when table A contains a foreign key from table B, follow these practices: BR

  • 1..1 one to one mapping between table A and table B - create a field in table A with attribute 'REFERENCES B'. this tell postgresql that the field contains a unique ID into table B.
  • 1..N one to many mapping between table A and table B - Create a table called A_B with two fields. One field is a uniqueID for table A. the other field is uniqueID for B with attribute 'REFERENCES B'. Create a field in table A with attribute 'REFERENCES A_B'. This will support cascading deletes since there is a path from a record in table A to the corresponding record(s) record in B.
  • All tables should have an 'id' field of type numeric and attribute PRIMARY KEY. most tables should have a creationdate and modificationdate field of type timestamp - the default time is 'without timezone', all stored times should be in GMT.
  • To make a major change to a table, run 'pg_dump -t tablename databasename > file.sql' to get a record of the existing schema. Then modify and run through psql to recreate the table. Note that this method does not seem to save the PRIMARY KEY attribute so be sure to put that back into the id field.

System for getting at the data

Implementation

  • PHP page talking to a MySQL server
