11:38 donsizemore joined #dataverse
13:54 donsizemore @pdurbin when is your talk? is there a stream?
15:03 donsizemore joined #dataverse
15:06 pdurbin donsizemore: heh, did you see https://twitter.com/philipdurbin/status/1161271120907001857 ? :)
18:01 donsizemore joined #dataverse
18:01 donsizemore @pdurbin I did!
18:01 pdurbin sounds like Sherry wants my slides: https://twitter.com/shlakeuva/status/1161315003342835712
18:02 pdurbin The thing is, I didn't have any slides. Just a new version of the API Guide.
18:02 pdurbin But I'll write up the points I tried to touch on and include the handout.
18:27 donsizemore @pdurbin i'll dig into #97 - they _were_ working...?
18:28 pdurbin Once upon a time they worked. I'm also open to ripping them out (the flags and from "usage") if we should always feed it a group_vars_file instead.
18:29 pdurbin Do you have a preference?
18:43 donsizemore @pdurbin group_vars was the original plan, but i flattened those two variables to make them flags
18:43 donsizemore @pdurbin group_vars would be much simpler
18:44 pdurbin Ok, so we should just remove those flags?
18:44 donsizemore i can do that. i'm curious what broke tho
18:45 pdurbin I'm curious too.
18:45 pdurbin I like the flags. But if they don't work and there's a way that's better or more simple, that's fine.
18:47 donsizemore the flags were intended to be handy. then we wanted more, and moar. that's when i threw in the entire group_vars file
18:47 donsizemore i do like the simplicity of firing off ec2-create against a branch
18:51 donsizemore but i want to reproduce what broke on you. i like to know what broke
18:54 pdurbin Ok, please go ahead and poke around. :) Thanks!
18:57 donsizemore @pdurbin yeah, i made a stupid mistake.
18:57 donsizemore smart mistakes are above my pay grade
19:57 donsizemore @pdurbin ok, compromise. if there is no group_var file passed, grab the current defaults from the dataverse-ansible repo.
20:34 pdurbin_m joined #dataverse
20:34 pdurbin_m donsizemore: but what about the flags? Should we continue to support them?
21:20 donsizemore @pdurbin I think I fixed it all. Let me test some more and I'll push a commit. Sorry, we had an internal event to get ready for, then I went to the gym.
21:23 pdurbin No worries, I wander off for a meeting about sample data (works for Danny and Mike now) and then picked up my kids from camp.
21:26 pdurbin wandered*
21:55 donsizemore test out my push to #97? i'm going to brave the monsoon home
