System Update

Provides a centralized interface to update the system to the latest available version. It supports a seamless upgrade process for both global (main system) and tenant (school) databases.

e-School SaaS

Update Process Overview​

Super Admin can initiate a system update with a single action after providing the required inputs (Purchase Code and ZIP file).

  • File Extraction: Core system files are extracted and replaced from the ZIP.
  • Database Migrations: Applies changes to both main and tenant databases.
  • Data Seeders: Executes seeders for required data updates.
  • Architecture: Designed for multi-tenant architecture, ensuring consistent updates across all school databases.

Multi-Tenant Update Handling​

Automatically applies updates to:

  • Main (Central) Database
  • Individual School (Tenant) Databases
  • Executes school-specific migrations and seeders in the background, ensuring data consistency across all tenants.

Real-Time Progress Tracking​

Displays live update progress using progress indicators for both:

  • Global System Update Status
  • Individual School-wise Progress Provides clear visibility into completed, ongoing, and pending updates.

Queue & Reverb Requirement​

The update process depends on background job processing and real-time communication.

  • Laravel Queue (Supervisor): Required for handling update jobs.
  • Laravel Reverb (WebSocket): Required for real-time progress updates.
  • Ensure these are properly configured to avoid tracking or execution failures.

Pre-Update Validation​

The system performs critical checks before starting:

  • Purchase code and ZIP file integrity validation.
  • Server configuration and database permissions check.
  • Queue worker and Reverb/WebSocket availability check.

Post-Update Verification​

  • Confirms all migrations and seeders executed successfully.
  • Validates tenant database updates.
  • Provides detailed success or failure status with logs.

System Safety & Reliability​

  • No Downgrade Support: Once updated, the system cannot be rolled back to an older version.
  • Atomic Process: Ensures a consistent upgrade across all tenants.
  • Pre-checks: Minimizes risk by preventing updates if requirements are not met.

Key Features​

  • One-click upgrade using purchase code and ZIP file.
  • Multi-tenant database update support.
  • Real-time progress tracking via WebSocket (Reverb).
