hello there, for example i have been editing this page https://github.com/dunnleaddress/dataverse/blob/4.2.1/doc/sphinx-guides/source/developers/dev-environment.rst
18:15
dunn_
today, i would like to edit this page http://guides.dataverse.org/en/2884-install-guide-reorg/installation/installation-main.html
18:16
dunn_
but i can not seem to find it anywhere in my fork here https://github.com/dunnleaddress/dataverse
18:16
dunn_
is the page not in source files of the project, can you please advise?
18:17
dunn_
my focus is on https://github.com/dunnleaddress/dataverse/tree/4.2.1
18:17
dunn_
thank you!
18:18
pdurbin
dunn_: hi! one moment
18:23
pdurbin
dunn_: it sounds like you forked the repo *before* I pushed that 2884-install-guide-reorg branch.
18:25
dunn_
ok so that is good. I will update my repo so that i can contribute with pull requests. Thank you Philip!
18:29
pdurbin
dunn_: since you seem to be working on the Dev Guide you should probably keep an eye on https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/2863
18:30
pdurbin
we haven't created a branch yet for Dev Guide changes but I'm sure we will eventually
18:38
dunn_
thank you!
18:41
dunn_
pdurbin, I have not had time to explore user/admin manual, but can I convert pdf or xsl or csv files to JSON using dataverse? Thanks!
18:41
dunn_
ours is here: http://www.dataverse.ucalgary.ca/
19:06
pdurbin
dunn_: you can converts csv files to XML (DDI) with Dataverse: http://guides.dataverse.org/en/4.2.3/user/tabulardataingest/index.html
19:06
pdurbin
convert*
19:17
dunn_
got it thanks. one more please in this page http://guides.dataverse.org/en/2884-install-guide-reorg/installation/installation-main.html - What is Rserve Server, remote data frame service ... ?
19:19
dunn_
(I am looking into the install script resulted in the above question. The script can be a bit more descriptive in the server names and usernames and passwords, though they are working very well as current)
19:19
pameyer
dunn_ : rserver is a way to run R on data in dataverse through apache
19:20
dunn_
R means remote right?
19:22
pameyer
programming language focused on stats
19:22
pameyer
https://www.r-project.org/
19:23
pameyer
R because it came after the "S" language

Thanks I got it.
19:26
pdurbin
pameyer has it right. thanks!
19:26
pdurbin
dunn_: you can read more about rserve and friends at http://guides.dataverse.org/en/4.2.3/installation/r-rapache-tworavens.html
19:27
pdurbin
pameyer: unlikely I will call in to the meeting. I just finished feeding my kids and the neighbor kids and after I clean up this kitchen I plan to get them outside
19:28
dunn_
Yep. Thanks for the info.
19:29
pdurbin
sure
19:30
pameyer
pdurbin: hope they enjoy the snow
19:31
pdurbin
one would think that a snow day would mean *less* work :)
19:35
pameyer
if you're one of the kids playing in the snow, it probably does :)
19:36
pdurbin
maybe I'll make 'em shovel
19:37
pdurbin
or at least try to

pameyer: phew! phone battery died but I heard a good deal of that call (i assume it's over). back inside and warming up
21:14
pameyer
pdurbin: at one point, there were two of you on that call
21:14
pdurbin
I have spies everywhere.
21:15
pameyer
I'd thought you learned how to be two places at once - I'd like to learn :)
21:15
pdurbin
the one thing was being called a migration but it sounded a bit more of a "sync" to me
21:16
pameyer
I didn't pick up on anything that had things going in both directions
21:17
pdurbin
oh, that's true, one way sync
21:18
pdurbin
but the idea is that the non-Dataverse system is the source of truth, right? and it sends periodic updates to Dataverse?
21:18
pameyer
now I see what you're thinking
21:19
pameyer
batched might make more sense than periodic
21:19
pdurbin
sure
21:19
pdurbin
but the non-Dataverse system doesn't go away, it sounds like. that's what a migration is to me
21:20
pameyer
so the question is how often do we want to propagate info from non-dv to dv, right?
21:20
pameyer
I'd been assuming one-off's for testing; but that's an *assumption*
21:21
pdurbin
yeah. and to be clear, this non-dataverse system is *not* the prototype, which *is* being migrated
21:21
pdurbin
it's some *other* system...
21:22
pameyer
there is another system; but I'd been using them interchangably in this context
21:23
pameyer
so my saying there wouldn't need to be two-way communications might've been wrong
21:23
pameyer
prototype is getting migrated - but not in the next two weeks
21:24
pdurbin
I don't see an action item about the sync stuff. I do see "API integration" under LINCS. I guess I'll leave a comment.
21:26
pdurbin
done
21:42
pameyer
one thing I put on the list - do you have recommendations for a dev system?
21:43
pdurbin
oh. hmm. well, my laptop is out of warranty and I just ordered a new one. I can forward the specs to you
21:46
pameyer
I'd been assuming that netbeans + glassfish with a laptop keyboard might not be the way to go - but I haven't tried it for long periods
21:47
pdurbin
I have an external monitor. Just got a new retina screen one. Love it.
21:47
pdurbin
pameyer: I just forwarded you an email about this. Did you get it?
21:48
pameyer
pdurbin: got it, thanks
21:48
pdurbin
sure
21:49
pameyer
I like the nvidia gpu's - but that's mostly for other reasons
21:49
pameyer
I don't *think* there's opengl lurking anywhere in dataverse
21:49
pdurbin
doubt it
21:50
pdurbin
netbeans doesn't fit very well on a laptop screen. needs room to breath
21:52
pameyer
and a SSD. my old laptop with a spinning disk wasn't very happy running netbeans
21:53
pdurbin
nor glassfish, probably
