CellarioScheduler Database Switcher

Usage

To run the switcher, execute the .bat file as an administrator. To preserve compatability with older verisons of CellarioScheduler and their default install locations, you must run with write access to C:\Program Files\HighRes Biosolutions.

When running the tool for the first time, a config file (extension .toml) will be generated. Edit this file to add additional databases. The format of this file is outlined below.

After you have added your databases to the config file, restart the tool and they should appear as buttons. Clicking a button will:

  1. Either alter the registry entry for the connection string (<=4.2) or alter appsettings.Production.json (>=4.3) to reflect your database settings.
  2. Create a symlink from the specified CellarioScheduler directory to C:\Program Files\HighRes Biosolutions\Cellario
    • If a real install of CellarioScheduler already exists here, it is automatically renamed with a random suffix so it will not be clobbered.
  3. Launches CellarioScheduler

Configuration

A database entry has the following sections:

Entry Name

This is the part in the square brackets. Whatever is entered here will appear in the UI. Spaces are not permitted, underscores and hyphens are permitted.

DatabaseUser

This is the user login for the database. It should be verbatim what you would use to log in to your database.

DatabasePassword

This is the password for the database. It is likely either postgres or oracle.

DatabaseType

Either postgres or oracle

CellarioDirectory

This is the absolute path to your installation directory for CellarioScheduler. This allows you to associate a particular database with a given installation of CS. The backslash characters \ must be escaped with another backslash character \; see the example database if this is unclear.

Version

This is the version of CellarioScheduler installed in CellarioDirectory. You do not need to enter the full version, only the major and minor version numbers (i.e. 4.1 is sufficient). This is only used to determine if the registry should be altered or if appsettings should be altered.
