All tests were in relation to building ConfigCodes

As the Silverstripe Admin ecosystem is severely out of date (WebPack 2), and I've also never learnt to configure a build system from scratch. It was time to up my game. Although these musings might not be entirely accurate, they are my experience, and the thoughts on that particular use case at that time.

The headings are in chronological order of testing.

-- file names are relative to the active database's data directory (e.g. /var/lib/mysql/SS_yoursite/${outfile}.csv) and are therefore only readable by the mysql user (use sudo) - or output to an absolute path with write permission e.g. /tmp as below

with recursive kids as (
    select st.ID, URLSegment, cast(URLSegment as varchar(1000)) as Link, ParentID, Title, st.Version, LastEdited
    from SiteTree st
    left join Page pagedata on st.ID = pagedata.ID
    where st.ParentID = 0
    union all
    select child.ID, child.URLSegment, cast(concat(parent.Link, '/', child.URLSegment) as varchar(1000)) as Link, child.ParentID, child.Title, child.Version, child.LastEdited
    from SiteTree as child

Why don't Silverstripe CMS queries run in MySQL?

When debugging an ORM call, you may find yourself collecting the SQL that will be exectued via the DataList::sql function - this is great, but when copied and pasted into e.g. PHPMyAdmin, MySQL Workbench, HeidiSQL, DBeaver, Sequel Pro, etc... it doesn't seem to work!

Lets look at an example query that might* be used for a template call such as <% if $Menu(1) %>:

SELECT DISTINCT count(DISTINCT "SiteTree_Live"."ID") AS "Count"
 FROM "SiteTree_Live"
 WHERE (("SiteTree_Live"."ParentID" = 0))
