13:37 pdurbin bmckinney pameyer1: I just created a sprint planning doc for our 2pm meeting: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Oc6kLLUf8VG1PjGwBLH0qs64einss3-Vcu9-P06un7g/edit?usp=sharing
13:38 pdurbin djbrooke: have you met Bill and Pete yet? If not, you should swing by the small conference room if you can.
13:39 djbrooke Will do - thanks!
13:39 bmckinney cool, thanks
13:40 bmckinney pdurbin: i seem to remember you were initiating some meetings with Leonid?
13:40 pdurbin bmckinney: right. He said to grab him whenever. This Thursday or next or whenever. So let's do that.
13:41 bmckinney pdurbin: excellent
13:41 pdurbin What do we call that topic? "Is rsync compatible with versioning of files?"
13:43 djbrooke joined #dataverse
14:03 pdurbin bmckinney: Leonid is under the impression that you have a solution to this problem.
14:05 bmckinney pdurbin: no
14:06 bmckinney pdurbin: as i've mentioned before, this isn't a use case for experimental data (you shouldn't be changing x-ray images)
14:06 bmckinney but we understand it is an issue for others
14:07 jri joined #dataverse
14:08 pdurbin bmckinney: I tried to disabuse him of the notion. :)
14:09 bmckinney pdurbin: this will be a good chance to get on the same page
14:10 pdurbin my hacky solution is to say that all data should be rsync'ed to a folder called "1" and if you publish and change the files, all the files in "1" get copied to a folder called "2" before the rsync can continue... this is slow and stupid but solves the problem
14:11 bmckinney yes, and pameyer can share his current workarounds for this (it's a rare case i believe)
14:14 pameyer1 it's currently a rare case, and the current workarounds are suboptimal
14:14 pameyer1 it was a nice surprise to find out that some of the metadata people had already drawn a line in the sand between experimental data and reference dataset (which might change)
14:15 jri joined #dataverse
14:16 pdurbin pameyer1: but you're thinking that some day some of your users might have a use case for using rsync *and* having versions of their datasets, I believe.
14:17 pdurbin outside of structural biology, perhaps
14:17 pameyer1 we've got multiple datatypes - and one of them is much closer to reference dataset than primary experimental data
14:17 pameyer1 so even within structural biology it's at least a minor use case
14:18 pdurbin which datatype do you expect to have reference datasets?
14:21 pdurbin which datatype do you expect to have files that change?
14:21 pameyer1 what we're calling structural models at the moment
14:23 pdurbin pameyer1: thanks. I left myself a note: https://github.com/pdurbin/dataverse/commit/c7175231df70166129d7866b9e7b2566d3d50031#commitcomment-17806291
14:25 pdurbin maybe we can write a user story around stuctural models
14:25 pdurbin and rsync
14:25 pdurbin and files changing
14:27 pdurbin On a related note, I recently watched https://youtu.be/Yth7O6yeZRE?t=8h16m about how Dat ( http://dat-data.com ) versions files. I have no idea how well it deals with datasets of 50 GB or more though.
14:29 bsilverstein pdurbin: for what it's worth I've pinpointed where the account creation email comes from - MailServiceBean.java - and it looks simple enough to limit/edit to confirmed email addresses.
14:29 pdurbin bsilverstein: yep, that sounds right. Awesome.
14:30 bsilverstein although from here, would confirming an email address utilize MailServiceBean? would I add a case to the switch..?
14:31 pdurbin bsilverstein: well, to confirm the email address, you'll need to process a token in a URL. Maybe like https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/blob/v4.3.1/src/main/webapp/passwordreset.xhtml
14:32 bsilverstein right, got it. I'll sift through it, thanks Phil!
14:32 axfelix joined #dataverse
14:33 pdurbin yep, no problem
14:33 pdurbin pameyer1: back to mitigating password attacks for a moment... great minds think alike: http://irclog.perlgeek.de/crimsonfu/2016-06-09#i_12634167 :)
14:35 pameyer1 funny how that works sometimes...
14:36 pameyer1 re dat - looks like a cool architecture, but without testing it (aka - could be wrong) I assume that javascript + signifcant amounts of data = :(
14:36 pameyer1 and "exponential backoff" sounds like the term I was trying to think of
14:37 pdurbin pameyer1: actually, in #dat they are telling me they have a command line tool that can upload all of Wikipdedia (which is quite big) to a Dat server *and* versioning is still supported: https://botbot.me/freenode/dat/2016-06-09/?msg=67590264&page=2
14:38 pdurbin see https://github.com/datproject/docs#sharing-data and https://github.com/datproject/docs#versioning
14:39 pameyer1 sounds like I should poke around in it a bit
14:39 pdurbin Maybe "Dat" could be in the menu along side rsync, Globus, Aspera, etc. some day.
14:42 pameyer1 maybe - part of the idea of trying to do multi-protocol is that new protocols sometimes show up
14:43 pdurbin heh. sure
14:44 pdurbin sounds like we'd be considered an "early adopter" of Dat at this point: https://botbot.me/freenode/dat/msg/67591282/
14:47 pameyer1 "early adopter" can be good or bad sometimes
14:47 pdurbin skay: you first clued me in to Dat at http://irclog.iq.harvard.edu/dvn/2014-03-05#i_6761
14:48 * skay waves
14:49 pdurbin :)
14:49 pdurbin anyway, back to rsync I guess

15:48 pameyer1 for a few more moments
15:49 pdurbin pameyer1: Leonid is not available to meet today afterall. Next week.
15:49 pameyer1 ok
