jelknerand as many of us as possible skilled in working with it11:00
replaceafilljelkner, indeed11:01
jelknerbefore we signed in i drew a diagram on the white board (we made it into my classroom) that looked roughly like this:11:01
jelknerhelios <---> tendenci <--> mailman311:01
jelknertendenci is the mother ship11:02
jelknerintegration with the other two pieces happens through her.11:02
replaceafilljelkner, from the data point of view that's true11:03
replaceafilljelkner, but we need to discuss the front-end point of view too11:03
jelknerdo you want to do that now?11:03
jelkneror as we move forward later11:03
jelknerzOnny is here now ready to do whatever you want him to do.11:04

jelknerand developers meetings, in which i won't11:06
replaceafilljelkner, do you have audio/hangout capability?11:06
replaceafilljelkner, zOnny i think it'll be a bit quicker to talk about this11:07
replaceafilljelkner, zOnny i mean, instead of irc11:07
jelknerthis will be zOnny's first time doing this11:07
jelknerso let's help him get setup11:07

replaceafillmr_german, notice the COPY13:00
mr_germanreplaceafill, ok13:00
replaceafillmr_german, and have helios using it13:00

mr_germanreplaceafill, ok13:00
replaceafillmr_german, as long as the bird and the footer are there... :)13:01
replaceafillmr_german, in each page13:01
replaceafillmr_german, for the booth it may be a bit more complicated13:01

zOnnyI'm back replaceafill13:08
replaceafillzOnny, do you have more swap now?13:08
zOnnyyes, replaceafill13:09
replaceafillzOnny, cool, let's start with access to the demo server, ok?13:09
replaceafillzOnny, i pasted our shared tendenci directory above13:10
replaceafillzOnny, i'm adding a doc about Development13:10
replaceafillzOnny, so try to get to those13:10
replaceafillzOnny, try to log in to the demo instance13:12
zOnnyI am In, replaceafill13:14
replaceafillzOnny, cool13:15
replaceafillzOnny, i've added your gitlab ssh keys to the server too13:15
*** mjsir911 has joined #novawebdev13:15
replaceafillzOnny, i'm going to write how you ssh into it to the doc13:15
zOnnycool, replaceafill13:16
replaceafillzOnny, done, try to ssh in to it13:16
zOnnyI am In, replaceafill13:18
replaceafillzOnny, cool13:19
replaceafillzOnny, i'm documenting the file structure now13:19
replaceafillzOnny, and i'll add the commands to start, stop the service13:19
replaceafillzOnny, in the meantime you could check the tendenci installation tutorial:13:19
replaceafillhttps://tendenci.readthedocs.io/en/latest/13:20
zOnnyok, replaceafill13:20
replaceafillzOnny, and most importantly the theming guideines in the code base13:20
replaceafillguidelines*13:20
replaceafillzOnny, you can find those in the theming shared doc13:21
zOnnyok, replaceafill13:25
replaceafillzOnny, the instance should be down no13:26
replaceafillnow*13:26
replaceafillzOnny, try starting the service in your ssh session13:26
zOnnywhat you mean? replaceafill13:33
replaceafillzOnny, if you see https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1_RfNDM60_V9oQFNe0PzKmr80LWzrN2mH13:33
replaceafilloops13:33
replaceafillzOnny, sorry13:33
replaceafillzOnny, i meant, if you see: http://172.104.19.176:9000/13:33
replaceafillzOnny, you'll get an error, right?13:34
zOnnyyou right, replaceafill13:35
replaceafillzOnny, that's because i stopped the service13:35
replaceafillzOnny, you can control that now13:35
replaceafillzOnny, to do so, you need to ssh into the server13:35
replaceafillzOnny, you know how to do that already13:35
replaceafillzOnny, and then run the command i put in the shared doc13:36
replaceafillzOnny, as long as you have that command running in your terminal, the service will be available13:36
replaceafillzOnny, once you hit CTRL + C13:36
replaceafillzOnny, the server will stop working13:36
replaceafillzOnny, try starting the server again and let me know when the "instance" is up again13:37
zOnnyok, replaceafill13:38
zOnnyI got that as a warkning You have unapplied migrations; your app may not work properly until they are applied.13:39
zOnnyRun 'python manage.py migrate' to apply them.13:39
replaceafillzOnny, that's fine13:40
replaceafillzOnny, you can ignore that for now13:40
replaceafillzOnny, great you can control it now13:40
replaceafillzOnny, i can see the service up13:40
replaceafillzOnny, now try stopping it13:40
zOnnyI did, replaceafill13:41
replaceafillzOnny, cool13:41
replaceafillzOnny, now you have control on it13:41
replaceafillmjsir911, could you do me a favor13:42
mjsir911yes?13:42
replaceafillmjsir911, and explain zOnny about screen13:42
mjsir911do you want a shared screen session?13:42
replaceafillmjsir911, no, just the background running feature13:42
mjsir911oh I see13:42
replaceafillmjsir911, so he can let the service running13:42
replaceafillmjsir911, even if he leaves his ssh session13:43
mjsir911Could I suggest using background with the ampersand and the disown command?13:43
mjsir911"sleep 10 & disown" runs the command even if you quit13:43
replaceafillmjsir911, does it allow to get control back?13:43
mjsir911no, is that needed?13:43
replaceafillmjsir911, like screen does13:43
replaceafillmjsir911, yes13:43
mjsir911Ok well then yes screen is the proper tool for the job, will show him13:44
replaceafillmjsir911, thanks!13:44
replaceafillmjsir911, zOnny i'm already running a screen there fyi13:44
replaceafillmjsir911, zOnny which i forgot to name properly :S13:44
mjsir911I'm just showing him the basics for now13:45
replaceafillmjsir911, zOnny feel free to kill it13:45
replaceafillmjsir911, i just added your ssh key to the tendenci testing server too13:46
replaceafillmjsir911, in case you need it13:46
mjsir911thank you13:46
mjsir911replaceafill, whats the reason behind having gain control back to the process?13:54
replaceafillmjsir911, so a different person can restart it if needed13:54
replaceafillmjsir911, i use the same instance when i'm demoing things13:54
mjsir911how do you restart it from the session? do you not just shut it down and start it back up?13:55
replaceafillmjsir911, yes13:55
replaceafillmjsir911, we could set it up correctly by putting Apache/ngnix in front13:56
replaceafillmjsir911, but i want to avoid that because of the caching django does13:56
replaceafillmjsir911, it's just the quick/dirty way13:57
mjsir911I'm just suggestion using bash's background handling instead of screen, but its not that big of a deal13:57
replaceafillmjsir911, i'm fine with either way too, as long as everybody understand it13:59
mjsir911Screen is more versatile, but eventually I would hope that we understand where each has it's place13:59
replaceafillzOnny, so you can control it and leave it running, yes?14:02
zOnnyyes, replaceafill14:03
replaceafillzOnny, great14:03
replaceafillzOnny, so if you go to the themes directory14:04
replaceafillzOnny, you'll see a few available14:04
replaceafillzOnny, this is the one we're currently using https://github.com/tendenci/tendenci-base-theme14:04
replaceafilljelkner would like your opinion on something?14:05
replaceafilljelkner, *i* would like your opinion on something? :)14:06
replaceafillzOnny, this is the part of the django tutorial that explains templates: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/intro/tutorial03/14:06
jelknerreplaceafill, did my user stories help?14:07
replaceafilljelkner, yes, i was only going to request if you could make them issues instead14:07
jelknerdefinitely14:08
replaceafilljelkner, thanks14:08
jelkneri'll get right on it.14:08
replaceafilljelkner, i was thinking zOnny could go through the django tutorial before really starting on theming14:09
replaceafilljelkner, the alternative would be me or mjsir911 explaining how to understand the relationship between views and templates14:10
replaceafilljelkner, which is the most important part in theming really14:10
replaceafilljelkner, well, url + views and templates14:11
replaceafilljelkner, mjsir911 what i'd like zOnny to understand is how to go from a url to the template that is being rendered14:11
replaceafillACTION thinks maybe he could document that...14:12
jelknerACTION will leave that up to you all to decide ;-)14:14
replaceafill:D14:14
replaceafilli think docs is the solution14:14
replaceafillor at least part of it14:14
replaceafillso i'm working on that14:14
*** mjsir911 has joined #novawebdev14:32
*** mjsir911_ has joined #novawebdev14:35
jelkneruser stories submitted, replaceafill, and sent to the or arlington sc ;-)14:35
replaceafilljelkner, awesome!14:35
jelkneri sent a follow up email without cc'ing you, replaceafill, since it just mentions that i neglected to thank roshan for signing up also ;-)14:41
jelknerwe have 3 of the 5 sc members14:41
replaceafilljelkner, ah ok14:41
replaceafilljelkner, good!14:41
jelkneronce we get the last 2, louisea should begin a conversation with them about how they want the system to work14:42
jelknerfor example, since we have a login based system14:42
jelknerdo we need to use email for voting?14:42
replaceafilljelkner, right14:42
jelkneror could we have folks login in and vote14:42
jelknerwe want to smoothest, most effective system possible14:43
replaceafilljelkner, we don't support email voting right?14:43
jelkneryou tell me14:43
jelknerwe want our users to love our system14:43
jelknerwhat will work the best?14:43
jelknerthe psu uses email14:44
replaceafilljelkner, by email voting you mean: they receive a link, get to the "ballot" and send it14:44
jelkneryes14:44
replaceafilljelkner, the alternative is "go here, then here, and finally here", they do it by clicking14:44
jelkneryes14:44
replaceafilljelkner, got it14:44
replaceafilljelkner, it's really not email for voting :P14:45
jelkneror perhaps they just login and see an "outstanding votes" tab?14:45
replaceafilljelkner, we just provide the link through email ;)14:45
jelkneryes, i know14:45
jelknerbut you interact with it through email14:45
replaceafilljelkner, yes14:45
jelknerthat's how it feels14:45
jelkneranyway, we should bring the rest of the sc into the conversation14:46
jelkneras we learned in the schooltool process years ago14:46
jelknerthe sc members will really begin to feel ownership of our tool once they become part of the development proecess14:47
replaceafillyou don't want developers adding features that nobody uses14:47
replaceafillor needs14:47
jelknerthat's how they will really come to understand the freedom in free software too14:47
jelknerah, you are speaking of a the lack of customers14:48
jelkneri was thinking more of the excitement cando users i worked with felt about our process14:48
jelkneranyway, two sides of the same coin14:48
replaceafillyeah14:49
jelknerdwelsh, for example, came to love the process14:49
jelknersince he could work with developers directly to get his vision implemented14:49
replaceafillindeed14:50
replaceafillhe was really good at that14:50
jelkneri think at least some of the or sc members will be too14:50
jelknerthey are a smart and dedicated bunch14:50
replaceafillzOnny, you still around?14:53
jelknerreplaceafill, he is still around14:57
zOnnyyes, replaceafill14:58
replaceafillzOnny, are you in the middle of something? i have a theme task for you :)14:58
replaceafillzOnny, that will teach you something really useful14:58
replaceafillzOnny, but i don't want to overwhelm you with concepts14:59
zOnnyI am free, replaceafill15:00
replaceafillzOnny, great15:00
replaceafillzOnny, so here's the task15:00
replaceafillzOnny, log in as admin in the testing instance15:00
replaceafillzOnny, and go to http://172.104.19.176:9000/profiles/admin/15:01
replaceafillzOnny, i want you to change the title "Upcoming Event Registrations" to red15:01
replaceafillzOnny, can we talk briefly?15:02
zOnnysure, replaceafill15:02
replaceafillzOnny, calling you15:03
replaceafillzOnny, can you hear me?15:04
replaceafillzOnny, i can't hear you15:04
*** mr_german has joined #novawebdev15:15
replaceafilljelkner, i'm going to go get lunch15:33
replaceafilljelkner, i think zOnny has a good set up and has a small theming task15:34
replaceafilljelkner, that should get him started the "right" way15:34
replaceafilljelkner, i wrote some steps for him to follow at https://docs.google.com/document/d/1X8vp1Rb6gydOEOo545NNcza1eY3cwse47CZ28vQ_nIw/edit#15:34
replaceafilljelkner, with an example, now he only needs to adjust15:34
replaceafillACTION is excited about all these moving parts :S15:35
jelknernice replaceafill thanks!15:35
