[ECODP-dev] Trying to install release 01

[John Glover]

Hi Bert,

The PO will presumably be updating an existing database (whether in test or
production), which already has tracking data, so they will see their view
counts up to and including the previous day as described. So, they will see
the view immediately (although the data is always 1 day out of date).

We could add artificial data to the database for testing purposes when
using a new database, but we don't have an existing script to do this so
one would have to be created. Another option would be to show datasets with
0 views in the list as well, although this doesn't seem ideal. We could
probably change the behaviour of the tracking update command to include
partial results from the current day, but this would obviously require
additional work, and would still mean that someone would have to view
datasets on the test machine before updating the stats and search index.

Regards,
John
