We've noticed a number of anomalies in our database caused by ill-defined forms and/or table schema definitions. This PR resolves a number of issues related to the
slicestable including:datasource_idcolumn is not-NULL.datasource_namecolumn is not-NULL.datasource_typecolumn is non-NULL.Long terms we should look at trying to deprecate the denormalized
datasource_namecolumn which can (and should) be inferred from the (datasource_id,datasource_type) tuple. I believe the reason for its existence is mostly legacy however it may be required for importing/exporting of slices where one must identify entities by name rather than ID.Note this migration will fail if the
slices.datasource_id,slices.datasource_name, orslices.datasource_typecolumn is NULL. One must manually fix these records as programmatically trying to remedy these invalid records is difficult as it may not be apparent what the corresponding datasource should be given the possibly lack of information. The following query determines which records are problematic:Note this PR is gated by #5445 and #7084 which ensure that empty strings associated with form-data wont persist in the database and is necessary for ensuring that the relevant entries are non-NULL.
