Edits a materialized view to the chado database to help speed data access. This function supports the older style where postgres column specifications are provided using the $mv_table, $mv_specs and $indexed variables. It also supports the newer preferred method where the materialized view is described using the Drupal Schema API array.

Parameters

$mview_id: The mview_id of the materialized view to edit

$name: The name of the materialized view.

$modulename: The name of the module submitting the materialized view (e.g. 'tripal_library')

$mv_table: The name of the table to add to chado. This is the table that can be queried.

$mv_specs: The table definition

$indexed: The columns that are to be indexed

$query: The SQL query that loads the materialized view with data

$special_index: currently not used

$comment: A string containing a description of the materialized view

$mv_schema: If using the newer Schema API array to define the materialized view then this variable should contain the array.
