Abstract:
This contribution is meant to help contribution uploaders manage
the database changes. It allows you to setup additions to the
configuration options, create configuration groups using the next
configuration group id number and place all the items in that new
group. It allows for adding configuration options to existing
configuration groups and to avoid removing groups if not all the
items were removed from the group.
It allows for table additions and field additions for
existing tables also.
The utility interface allows for complete removal of all items.
it also offers an update option that will refresh the titles and
descriptions of configuration options, but not the configuration
setting itself. It also allows for a "force" install that will
reset all the configuration items to the default installed values.
Provide a solution so that the contribution it is included with
can call a function that will return whether any items need to
be setup and whether any items have already been setup (partial
install or updating needed).
