PecanProject/bety: BETYdb 5.3.0

Please read the steps below to upgrade your system. Not following these steps could break your instance of BETY.

The previous versions of BETY would ignore the environment variable SECRET_KEY_BASE and use the default value defined in config/defaults.yml. If you have set SECRET_KEY_BASE and upgrade BETY you will not be able to login anymore!. It is best to remove SECRET_KEY_BASE if set and default back to the default SECRET_KEY_BASE.

1. Log in to the server.
2. cd to the Rails root directory.
3. Run git pull to get the latest version of the master branch.
4. Update any gems using bundle
5. Run the migration in the new release with bundle exec rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=production
6. Restart the Rails server with touch tmp/restart.txt

1. Log in to the server
2. cd to the directory with the docker-compose file
3. update the version of bety (if you don't use latest)
4. stop BETY docker-compose rm --stop bety
5. download latest version docker-compose pull bety
6. run migration docker-compose run --rm bety migrate
7. start bety docker-compose up -d bety

There is a change to the script/dump.bety.sh that will keep the creation/update times of the users in the database. This is needed for future work to speed up database synchronizations. If you use the script standalone, please copy latest script.
