Questions Manage source code with multiple clients

[Sam924]

අපි software එකක් හදල ඒකම වෙන client කෙනෙක්ට දාද්දී එයාට අනුව 5% - 10% වගේ පොඩි පොඩි වෙනස්කම් ටිකක් (Required customizations) එක්ක වෙනස් කරලා දානවනම් සම්පුර්ණ code base එක duplicate කරලා වෙනම client wise projects folders තියාගන්නේ නැතුව එ ඒ client ඉල්ලන customizations කරලා single code base එකක් maintain කරන් යන්න විදියක් තියෙනවද?

Database triggers walin wage module ekai eka adala wena customer wai identify karannada?

 

[Draco Malfoy]

Database triggers walin wage module ekai eka adala wena customer wai identify karannada?

mamath karala na mage adahasak kiwwe.
mehemai oya kiwwa widiya neme, modules kiwwe nikan basic/core function ekata reusable solution ekak hadanawa (eg: payments handling) oke basic api set ekak denawa payment ekak karanna and db update wenna, payment receipt generate karanna wage.
but user ge requirements anuwa me module eke changes karanawa.
ethakota core module eke bug ekak nam eka fix kalama, e module eka use wela thiyena okkoma cleintslage payment module eke bug eka fix wenawa.

ethakota kawruhari user kenek eyata payment one kiwwoth oya ara core payment module eka denawa, eyala ekata customisation illuwoth ekata user specific upgrades karanawa.

module wise git project or repos hadala, user specific customization branches walin hadanawa. me branches wala loku samanakam thiyenna ba, ehema samana wenawanam ewa core module ekatama integrate karanawa.

meka mata hithuna adahasak, meka practicle da, loku project waladi kela wenna puluwan architecture ekakda danna ithin.

Use Git submodules. Use your core software as a git submodule. For a new client make a new repo and add the base sub module

Git Branch karath 10% code change ekak kiynne tikak loku portion ekak neh?

Pluwan tram features configurtion level ekakta ganna balanna machan..eka lesiy anith widi walata wada..

 

[realpubba]

Git branches walin karana projectsuth thiyenawa. Eth eka echchara honda solution ekak neme. Mokada branch diverge wela different history ekak thibbama passe dawasaka oka hena wathayak wenawa. (eg. client A ta dipu feature ekak client B kiwwoth matath one kiyala, how to merge? B ta A ge okkoma one na, just one feature. This gets extremely messy)

Me wage ewa handle karanna use wenawa feature flags. Client configuration ekak thiyagena, eke define karanna enable karanna ona features for that client. Configuration eka deployment config ekak(env variables) or database eke config ekak widiyta thiyanna puluwan.
