bencomp: merged! now you're listed here: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/graphs/contributors :)
10:39 bencomp
pdurbin: woohoo! I changed more lines than Gary King and Kevin together! :)
10:43 pdurbin
heh
10:44 pdurbin
every contribution is valued, of course :)
10:46 pdurbin
bencomp: hmm, I may not have linked you to http://tmp.greptilian.com/tmp/devcycle or http://tmp.greptilian.com/tmp/devcycle2 yet... what do you think? :)
10:56 bencomp
pdurbin: errr, I think it needs explanation :) I saw the original drawing, and this looks nice, but what are you trying to tell us?
10:58 bencomp
(I don't always ask this question to myself, not as often as I should at least…)
11:06 pdurbin
I get that a lot... "What are you trying to say?" :)
12:27 bencomp
pdurbin: have you tried rephrasing what you wanted to say in problem statement and (suggested) solution? :)
12:35 pdurbin
- if you want a feature, get involved in the design process before development begins
12:35 pdurbin
- development never stops; the moment a branch is handed to QA, a new branch is created and development happens there
12:36 bencomp joined #dataverse
12:36 pdurbin
- we are striving for a regular release cycle
12:38 pdurbin
- contributors need to be conscious of where we are in a release cycle to know which branch to make pull requests against. this is also covered in http://guides.dataverse.org/en/latest/developers/branching-strategy.html
13:05 bencomp1 joined #dataverse
13:07 bencomp
pdurbin: that's mostly the problem statements, and that's great, but you should also explain why your cycle helps solve these problems
13:07 * bencomp
ducks
13:11 pdurbin
bencomp: when you say "cycle" I assume you mean http://guides.dataverse.org/en/latest/developers/branching-strategy.html and not my silly diagram
13:13 bencomp
in this case I meant your diagram
13:15 pdurbin
oh
13:18 pdurbin
bencomp: oh, let's get on the same page with this issue when you're ready: API Documentation Organization · Issue #1489 · IQSS/dataverse - https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/1489
14:53 axfelix joined #dataverse
15:09 bencomp
pdurbin: right, let's get on the same page. From Mercè's issue description I expected that there would be "metadata API " documentation, but in the approved version I don't see it.
15:10 bencomp
I wondered if there was a way around needing a builtin component that provides OAI-PMH by reading metadata from another API
15:11 bencomp
… and letting some OAI-PMH server serve that
15:13 metamattj joined #dataverse
15:13 bencomp
but I now realise the native API does serve dataset metadata :) (though not without API key apparently)
15:14 pdurbin
bencomp: when you say "dataset metadata API " I think of how you can download dataset metadata as JSON .
15:14 pdurbin
and create and update datasets with JSON
15:14 pdurbin
which is documented under "native API " (which I don't like, per my comments... it should be a top level API in terms of documentation)
15:15 bencomp
it used to include OAI-PMH I think
15:15 pdurbin
what did?
15:16 bencomp
my memory of the contents of documentation about getting metadata through APIs
15:16 bencomp
my recollection
15:17 bencomp
... but it didn't: http://thedata.harvard.edu/guides/dataverse-api-main.html#metadata-api
15:18 pdurbin
or here: http://guides.dataverse.org/en/3.6.2/dataverse-api-main.html#metadata-api
15:18 pdurbin
hmm, so in DVN 3.6.2 there *was* something called a "Metadata API "
15:19 pdurbin
part of the Data Sharing API
15:19 pdurbin
but the Data Sharing API was not brought forward into Dataverse 4.0
15:19 pdurbin
I mean, parts of it were.
15:20 bencomp
it needed a fresh view, maybe it's not all bad ;)
15:21 bencomp
Data Access API covers it better
15:36 pdurbin
yeah
15:48 pdurbin
bencomp: anyway, I hope you're fine with *not* re-opening https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/1489 . There's a new ticket to keep working on API doc organization: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/2174
15:50 bencomp
pdurbin: agreed, don't reopen 1489. The new issue looked a little too specific
15:50 bencomp
but I'm fine with using it
15:51 pdurbin
bencomp: it sounds like you have a new issue in mind, which is fine
15:51 pdurbin
but I don't know what it is :)
15:51 bencomp
I'll think about what I want to say :)
15:53 pdurbin
I never have that problem ;)
15:58 pdurbin
bencomp: I'm trying to import an epub I just made and uploaded to http://dvn-vm1.hmdc.harvard.edu/tmp/
15:58 pdurbin
"Processing"
15:58 bencomp
oooh
15:58 pdurbin
wow it worked
16:00 * bencomp
looks at the epub in CoolReader on Android
16:06 bencomp
pdurbin: I like it :)
16:07 pdurbin
me too. showing it to people here :)
