52.0.3-rc01

Important

• You should test all releases, with actual data, several days before a competition.
• It is always wise to export your current database before updating if it contains important data.

• Fixes

  • 52.0.3 This release does not touch owlcms.

    • Publicresults: added logging to measure sessions vs memory usage.

  • 52.0.2 The new faster SBDE (Start Book Data Entry) full export was not correctly exporting the session information, now fixed.

  • 52.0.2 Fixed formatting for schedules, restored the DaySchedule with individual age groups.

  • 52.0.1 Overzealous check was preventing some customized schedules from printing.

• MIGRATION NOTES

  • If you have created your own document templates, or if you created a "kit" of local documents for your federation, some templates have been moved to more specific folders and you may need to move your own templates. Install a clean copy of the application and look at the locations in local/templates. Use the updated Prepare Competition > Documents page to check that the buttons show your templates.

• Documents: New and Improved Documents page

  • All documents needed to prepare and run the competition are here (Results are still on their own page).
  • The Competition-wide documents such as the Start List are handled as in the previous versions.
  • Documents like the Athlete Cards can be produced for one or more sessions. If more than one session is selected, a zip file is produced, otherwise the Excel is produced.
  • Document sets can be produced, for example, a weigh-in form together with the cards. When a document set is selected, a zip file is produced. The document set can be produced for one or more sessions.
  • If more than one copy of a document is needed (for example, two weigh-in forms for each session), you can adjust your template by duplicating the tab. Same for jury forms if you want to avoid printing 3 copies manually.
  • Schedule:
    • added a Simple schedule template that uses the description of the sessions.
    • A more sophisticated DaySchedule template shows age groups and bodyweight categories, now available in local languages.

• Scoreboards:

  • Fix: Immediately after the 3rd snatch, while the decision lights were shown, the bottom line of the scoreboard would be stretched. Now fixed.

• SBDE export:

  • Converted the template to jxls3, resulting in massive speed improvement (~7 seconds for 1000 athletes).
