### For non-omnibus installations
On non-omnibus installations (distributed using Git) we retrieve the index
declarations from version control using `git stash`.
``` ```
# Clone the database converter on your Postgres-backed GitLab server # Clone the database converter on your Postgres-backed GitLab server
cd /tmp cd /tmp
git clone https://github.com/gitlabhq/mysql-postgresql-converter.git git clone https://github.com/gitlabhq/mysql-postgresql-converter.git
# Stash changes to db/schema.rb to make sure we can find the right index statements
cd /home/git/gitlab cd /home/git/gitlab
# Stash changes to db/schema.rb to make sure we can find the right index statements
sudo -u git -H git stash sudo -u git -H git stash
# Generate the `CREATE INDEX CONCURRENTLY` statements based on schema.rb # Generate add_index.rb
cd /tmp/mysql-to-postgresql-converter ruby /tmp/mysql-postgresql-converter/add_index_statements.rb db/schema.rb > /tmp/mysql-postgresql-converter/add_index.rb
ruby index_create_statements.rb /home/git/gitlab/db/schema.rb > index_create_statements.psql
# Create the indexes
sudo -u git -H bundle exec rails runner -e production 'eval $stdin.read' < /tmp/mysql-postgresql-converter/add_index.rb
```
### For omnibus-gitlab installations
On omnibus-gitlab we need to get the index declarations from a file called
`schema.rb.bundled`. For versions older than 6.9, we need to download the file.
```
# Clone the database converter on your Postgres-backed GitLab server
cd /tmp
/opt/gitlab/embedded/bin/git clone https://github.com/gitlabhq/mysql-postgresql-converter.git
cd /tmp/mysql-postgresql-converter
# Download schema.rb.bundled if necessary
test -e /opt/gitlab/embedded/service/gitlab-rails/db/schema.rb.bundled || sudo /opt/gitlab/embedded/bin/curl -o /opt/gitlab/embedded/service/gitlab-rails/db/schema.rb.bundled https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/raw/v6.9.1/db/schema.rb
# Generate add_index.rb
/opt/gitlab/embedded/bin/ruby add_index_statements.rb /opt/gitlab/embedded/service/gitlab-rails/db/schema.rb.bundled > add_index.rb
# Execute the SQL statements against the GitLab database # Create the indexes
sudo -u git psql -f index_create_statements.psql -d gitlabhq_production /opt/gitlab/bin/gitlab-rails runner 'eval $stdin.read' < add_index.rb
``` ```
