Agenda 6/22/11
Pushing and pulling (git), deploying to server
Learning code and web programming
- Read later chapters in Django book - read the whole thing
- Documentation on Django website is a reference
Event viewer (Noam, Jimmy, review)
- Check permissions before displaying fields in template code
{% ifagentcan 'view Item.name' event %}
{{ item.name }}
{% else %}
YOU CANNOT VIEW THIS FIELD
{% endifagentcan %}
Diff displayer' (Mike, Noam)
- Noam found HTML diff viewer that is open source: HTLMDiffs.py
- HTML is harder than plain text so need to go with what is available
Email integration (deliverable due June 30)
- Will include diff display
- Firewall issue on Deme website not an issue for AIR specifically - can't send to outside addresses
- Need to edit template for email deme_django/cms/templates/notification/
- four types of notif messages discussed and agreed upon
List viewer proposal
Symsys website - spam, slowness, code push (Chris, Mike, Joe)
- performance problems may be due to virtualization - Ubuntu standard (KVM) in use now, but everyone else uses Xen or vmware
- Also may be due to database not being able to fully reside in memory
- Chris may copy Symsys databse to his laptop and see how fast it runs, profile performance, work with Mike to get started
- Chris will do research and take on moving to the cloud: 4 servers are PIECE ($40/mnth on Linode), Whovoted (under $20/month); keep Deme and Symsys on our box; entire machine would cost about $200/month
- Todd and Chris will talk about integrating alumni database with spreadsheet data
Issues document (and Mike's local todo document) - create project tool?
- Mike recommends using Git plaintext document instead - committing a text file there
- Synchronous and asynchronous editing with notice to users seeing users - synchro is harder because can't use TinyMCE, and how do we store versions with synchro editing
- Jimmy will create new Git document in repository for issues, migrating and organizing issues in Deme Issues, placing link item in Deme Team Folio to replace current Deme Issues document, merge with Mike's old document in repo
Report on yesterday at CMU-SV (Todd)
- Possible empirical studies this summer with Jimmy
Mike webcast to everyone to explain Deme plumbing (including permissions)
