Changes that I implemented for the data reset stuff.


Changes to /addon/setup

If data needs to be reset, it returns:

{ success: false, reason: 'reset-required' }


Changes to /addon/push

If data needs to be reset, it returns:

{ success: false, reason: 'reset-required' }


When the above happens, you have to stop collecting data (stop the engines), reset the add-on state (except username/password) and then call the /addon/reset method.

The /addon/reset method needs the same POST data as /addon/setup:

{ version: 1 }

It will reset data immediately and then clear the internal reset-required flag for the user.

The add-on can now do its initial upload as usual.


To test this, connect to mysql:

mysql --user=fxhome --password=fxhome fxhome

select id from users where username = 'max@mozilla.com'; // replace with your account name

insert into UserProperties (user_id, name, value) values (your user id, 'reset-required', 'true');


Let me know if you have questions.
