alexjustesen/speedtest-tracker v0.16.0

v0.16.0 (Data Quality - Action Required!)

on GitHub

This release fixes a data quality issue (#812) that has existed since day-1. Result responses stored in data column where incorrectly formatted which caused extra steps and some messy code throughout the application. This release will copy your existing results table to a new results_bad_json table for safe keeping and deploy new DDL for a fresh results table.

Data Migration

If you have existing results data you can follow the steps below to migrate and fix your data.

1. Sign in as an admin user and visit the results page.
2. Click "Migrate" at the top of the table and confirm you want to start the data migration.
3. The migration will be processed by a queue worker behind the scenes, you'll receive notifications at the start and end of the data processing. This can take a couple of minutes depending how much data you have.
4. Once completed you'll need to add your schedule for speedtests back under General settings.
