Happy Holidays Datavere developers.
19:23 pdurbin
freeman__: thanks! you too! I actually have the day off but do you want to see something I'm hacking on? :)
19:24 freeman__
yes certainly. i love to hack in python which is my specialty
19:24 freeman__
java i can read code but not good at it.
19:24 pdurbin
https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse-android
19:24 freeman__
i also came to another issue with DVN v3.6.x
19:24 freeman__
question: does the new Dataverse 4.0 include the notion of keeping track of individual files download counter per study instead of during download where if an user selected two files, those two files will be lump together as one package.
19:25 freeman__
oh man, dont tell me, Dataverse on Android platform.
19:26 freeman__
pdurbin: Awesome !!! There will be a release of Dataverse for the Android platform. NIce !!!!!
19:28 pdurbin
freeman__: whoa, whoa, whoa... let's not get ahead of ourselves. :) this is just something I'm hacking on. :) look at how primitive it is: http://imgur.com/h2r9gKt
19:28 freeman__
pdurbin: Kool. Right, OfCourse. :)
19:29 pdurbin
freeman__: if you know anyone who wants to help, please direct them to https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse-android/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md :)
19:30 freeman__
pdurbin: will do. i was thinking of learning Android development a few years ago. Yes if i know of anyone who wishes to help i will inform them. I just might git pull the source myself to check it out.
19:31 pdurbin
freeman__: I recommend http://appinventor.mit.edu to make your first app. That's what I did.
19:32 pdurbin
freeman__: if you want to try to build the Dataverse app for Android, please use Android Studio: http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2014/12/android-studio-10.html
19:32 freeman__
pdurbin: i see. the Google android tutorial was quite difficult when i first tried to develop something simple with android moons ago. I am certain its easier now a days. ;)
19:34 pdurbin
this was very helpful in learning how to parse JSON : http://www.newthinktank.com/2014/10/make-android-apps-14/
19:36 freeman__
pdurbin: there is a colleague here who can parse JSON -LD and XML files pretty well, i forgot the javalibrary he used to do so. Right, Java has all kinds of kool tools to parse JSON files.
19:38 freeman__
pdurbin: i can clearly see that you are keeping yourself very busy even on your day off. :) i bet its very nice up in MA this time of the year.
19:38 pdurbin
yeah, it seems to be built in to android
19:39 pdurbin
meh, it's pretty rainy today. good weather in NH last weekend though. took the kids skiing. saw a moose
19:39 pdurbin
oh good, I started this android project on Ubuntu but it seems to build find on Mac too
19:39 pdurbin
fine*
19:39 freeman__
pdurbin: i will look into learning Android development this coming new year and will try (not a promise) to git pull Your source code, install the android Development environment and see what happens. ;)
19:40 pdurbin
freeman__: great! once you're set up I'll send you some videos to watch
19:41 freeman__
several co-workers of mine are from up north, Hartford, CT snowed a bit a few days ago. Its raining here in Baltimore as well. Cloudy, not much excitment at the moment. I will be traveling south to visit my dad soon.
19:41 pdurbin
nice
19:41 freeman__
pdurbin: Excellent, i will watch them. getting back to programmming something instead of doing more of linux monkieying around. lol
19:42 pdurbin
freeman__: oh, for your question about download numbers... I don't know. Can you please ask on the Google Group?
19:42 freeman__
pdurbin: ok will do. i will post a question on the googlegroup
19:43 pdurbin
cool. or privately via support
19:43 pdurbin
but others would probably be interested in the answer too
19:46 freeman__
i see. the version we are using is good but after further digging, i realized that researchers might be interested in the actual number file download counter on DVN. I found the google DVN posting site.
19:46 freeman__
will post this question shortly: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/dataverse-community
20:20 freeman__
pdurbin: many thanks in pointing this out to me. My brain is not quite here with me today, i do hope that i have made my question to a point where it may make scense to everyone in this community.
20:27 freeman__
Take it easy, i am calling it done for today. Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas to everyone. Peace !
