callkalpa: wanna start things off? |
| 17:14 |
callkalpa |
sure |
| 17:14 |
|
I am currently developing a python script to convert html doc to mallard |
| 17:15 |
|
pandoc can be used to convert rst or markdown to html and from html, it will be converted to mallard |
| 17:15 |
|
decause <decause!~decause fedora/decause> has joined #sugar-meeting |
| 17:15 |
callkalpa |
the basic functionality is set up and I am adding html tags and their mallard counterparts to the script |
| 17:16 |
walterbender |
callkalpa: any roadblocks? |
| 17:16 |
callkalpa |
not at the moment walte |

walterbender |
callkalpa: curious how you plan to deal with i18n |
| 17:17 |
|
is there a standard mallard solution? |
| 17:17 |
callkalpa |
and writing help for Measure is also in progress |
| 17:17 |
walterbender |
any way to leverage the existing po files? |
| 17:18 |
callkalpa |
yes there is a way with mallard, it adhere to xml standards and I am reading on that too |
| 17:18 |
|
lionaneesh <lionaneesh!~aneeshdogunaffiliated/lionaneesh> has joined #sugar-meeting |
| 17:18 |
walterbender |
good to hear |
| 17:18 |
callkalpa |
It seems that it can be easily achievable with the existing tools |
| 17:19 |
lionaneesh |
pulls out a chair and sits in quietly. |
| 17:19 |
callkalpa |
anyway I have not come to a conclusion with that regard yet, still reading on the possible options :-) |
| 17:19 |
walterbender |
callkalpa: would be good to repurpose strings for toolbars, etc we have translated for the activities themselves |
| 17:19 |
|
(that was the approach I was taking when I made a mallard version of the TA docs) |
| 17:19 |
callkalpa |
yeah sure |
| 17:20 |
|
btw, walterbender what does TA stand for? |
| 17:20 |
walterbender |
Turtle Art |
| 17:20 |
callkalpa |
got it :-) |
| 17:21 |
walterbender |
CDeLorme: you wanna go next? |
| 17:21 |
callkalpa |
That's all from me for the moment |

walterbenter: sure, thank you |
| 17:22 |
|
My laptop was in the shop this week, got a call to pickup a replacement this morning. |
| 17:22 |
|
I worked on wire-frames for cross platform, and experimented with some Gtk3 things, like hotkeys. |
| 17:22 |
|
I also spent some time reading the GStreamer documentation, hoping to begin diagramming that next week and finish up the UI work |
| 17:22 |
decause |
tell em about the patch CDeLorme ;) |
| 17:23 |
CDeLorme |
Right, I want to submit a patch to the Terminal activity for new tab and go-to-tab hotkeys |
| 17:23 |
walterbender |
needs a gstreamer consult when CDeLorme is up to speed |
| 17:24 |
|
CDeLorme: you can make a pull request |
| 17:24 |
CDeLorme |
I am working on some hefty documentation for GStreamer as I experiment, I will be sure to share the whole thing when it is closer to useful. |
| 17:24 |
|
tch__ <tch__!~webchatrev-18-85-44-69.sugarlabs.org> has joined #sugar-meeting |
| 17:24 |
walterbender |
CDeLorme: I think Terminal is still hosted on gitorious, so it would be a Merge request |
| 17:25 |
CDeLorme |
as soon as I finish testing the changes on an XO I will submit a merge request, I did find the repo so that won't be a problem. |
| 17:25 |
walterbender |
is not sure who is the current maintainer |
| 17:26 |
CDeLorme |
Oh, some concerns I had about the GStreamer performance, not sure if it is tied to CPU limitations or the webcam, but FPS is still not too great above 20FPS it bogs down |
| 17:26 |
|
I am looking into ways to build the buffer ahead of time to see if that might fix it |
| 17:27 |
walterbender |
CDeLorme: on the XO? |
| 17:27 |
CDeLorme |
and plan to test a USB web cam to see if that works any better |
| 17:27 |
walterbender |
CDeLorme: dsd did some optimizations for Record |
| 17:27 |
CDeLorme |
Yes, the XO 1.75, latest model, anything over 20FPS and it goes too slow for frames. |
| 17:27 |
walterbender |
seems certain sizes play better with the hardware |
| 17:27 |
|
so maybe look at the latest record bits |
| 17:27 |
CDeLorme |
dsd? if possible I want to know more about that. |
| 17:28 |
walterbender |
(may only be relevant for XO 4... not sure) |
| 17:28 |
|
dsd is Daniel Drake |
| 17:28 |
CDeLorme |
alright, I will get in touch with Daniel then. Thanks |
| 17:29 |
walterbender |
surajgillespie: next? |
| 17:29 |
surajgillespie |
Sure |
| 17:30 |
|
Trying to get the subtoolbar of Sugar into the HTML5 framework |
| 17:30 |
|
Manuel's idea is something like, |
| 17:30 |
|
# link http://sugarlabs.github.io/sug[…]ples/palette.html |
| 17:31 |
|
An activity palette drops down when we click the activity icon. |
| 17:31 |
decause |
surajgillespie: nice work |
| 17:31 |
surajgillespie |
decause: Actually manual was one who did that :) |
| 17:32 |
|
I'm trying to get it synched up with the datastore |
| 17:32 |
|
to display activity name, description, etc. |
| 17:33 |
walterbender |
surajgillespie: what is the general status of the js interface to the datastore? |
| 17:33 |
surajgillespie |
My work on checkboxes and radio buttons were merged into sugar-web a few days back |
| 17:33 |
walterbender |
saw that commit :) |
| 17:34 |
surajgillespie |
walterbender: it is working fine. I'm working on an activity too. managed to add datastore capability to it using the current framework |
| 17:35 |
|
it is still a very basic activity though |
| 17:35 |
|
and that's what I've been upto last week. Thanks :) |
| 17:36 |
walterbender |
thanks for the update |
| 17:36 |
|
boredomist: ready? |
| 17:36 |
boredomist |
yep! |
| 17:37 |
|
this week, I built off the basic server components I started last week |
| 17:37 |
|
I added some more functionality to the API endpoints, added a web translation service backend (http://wiki.apertium.org/wiki/[…]tium_web_service), fleshed out the plugin system some more, and added more unit tests. |
| 17:37 |
|
Also added a couple of miscellaneous things as well, like more configuration options and some rate limiting for the api service |
| 17:37 |
|
An incredibly simple example: http://home.erikprice.net:5000[…]ld&callback=jsonp |
| 17:38 |
walterbender |
Hello World is the place to start :P |
| 17:39 |
decause |
boredomist++ |
| 17:39 |
boredomist |
I'm planning on finalizing the API and plugin specification this weekend. I already have it mostly set, but I just want to document it completely |
| 17:39 |
walterbender |
seems to work: jsonp({"to": "es", "from": "en", "result": "adi\u0e23\u0e13s"}) |
| 17:40 |
boredomist |
this is the part where everything explodes spectacularly in my face :P |
| 17:40 |
walterbender |
we'll see how it all scales up |
| 17:41 |
boredomist |
yeah, i haven't done any kind of benchmarking of it yet |
| 17:42 |
walterbender |
seems like good progress |
| 17:43 |
|
maybe rgs can help with the scaling the time comes |
| 17:43 |
tch__ |
boredomist: cool! |
| 17:44 |
walterbender |
axitkhurana: ? |
| 17:44 |
axitkhurana |
Sure. |
| 17:44 |
|
I read about pygtk, gobject and gconf, so the code makes a lot more sense now. |
| 17:44 |
|
I am able to display social_ids (added to buddy's data earlier) in group/network view (via buddy updated callbacks) |
| 17:45 |
|
Have to read social_ids from where webservices will store other services data like tokens, currently hard coded. |
| 17:46 |
walterbender |
axitkhurana: the Sugar webservices bits finally landed upstream, so you should be able use that frame now |
| 17:46 |
axitkhurana |
great, I'll pull it and update my code. |
| 17:48 |
|
Fortnight <Fortnight!~Fortnightyacht.rit.edu> has joined #sugar-meeting |
| 17:48 |
walterbender |
any issues? |
| 17:49 |
axitkhurana |
no, tch__ helped with the problems. |
| 17:49 |
|
Thengrad <Thengrad!~Thengradyacht.rit.edu> has joined #sugar-meeting |
| 17:50 |
walterbender |
thanks tch__ |
| 17:50 |
|
mzepf: wanna report? |
| 17:50 |
decause |
walterbender: can you link to repo? |
| 17:50 |
mzepf |
Sure. |
| 17:50 |
walterbender |
decause: it is in mainline Sugar on github |
| 17:50 |
mzepf |
I manually translated two TurtleArt sample projects to python |
| 17:51 |
decause |
walterbender: kk |
| 17:51 |
walterbender |
decause: https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar |
| 17:51 |
|
mzepf: well, more than that... |
| 17:51 |
mzepf |
to see whether there would be problems with 'real code, but everything worked fine. |
| 17:52 |
|
I also moved the code for setting up the window etc. to an extra module. |
| 17:52 |
walterbender |
mzepf: you had to make a couple of patches to Turtle Art along the way :P |
| 17:52 |
mzepf |
Yes, I submitted two patches. |
| 17:53 |
|
I also found a way to automatically find the TA installation directory in the PYTHONPATH. |
| 17:54 |
walterbender |
the code is starting to look vaguely like Python now... |
| 17:55 |
mzepf |
I'm constantly considering the tradeoff between keeping it readable for learners and making it as similar to TA as possible. |
| 17:55 |
walterbender |
the good news is that we can change TA if necessary :P |
| 17:56 |
|
will hopefully have time to look into the turtle-centric model we discussed a few weeks ago |
| 17:57 |
|
iamaregee2 <iamaregee2!~aregee122.177.254.189> has joined #sugar-meeting |
| 17:57 |
mzepf |
That's it from me. |
| 17:57 |
walterbender |
once we add blocks for web programming, eveyone can write their GSoC projects in Turtle Art |
| 17:57 |
|
thanks mzepf |
| 17:57 |
|
iamaregee2: just in time... what's up? |
| 17:58 |
iamaregee2 |
hello everyone |
| 17:58 |
CDeLorme |
iamaregee2 hello |
| 17:58 |
walterbender |
maybe we just need a wget block |
| 17:58 |
|
that'd accomplish a lot :) |
| 17:59 |
iamaregee2 |
over the week i have implemented user profile management , friendship / follow model |
| 17:59 |
|
and a basic project upload and download model in my project . |
| 18:00 |
|
Right now everything *just works* |
| 18:00 |
walterbender |
iamaregee2: is there a link we can look at? |
| 18:00 |
iamaregee2 |
https://github.com/aregee/moksaya |
| 18:01 |
|
I would update my wiki and I right now i am working on user profiles , hope to push the code on github by tonight |
| 18:02 |
walterbender |
iamaregee2: let us know when you have something you want us to review |
| 18:02 |
iamaregee2 |
I have already asked tch__ to review my work |
| 18:03 |
|
plus I have been trying to stage this project on redhat's openshift platform |
| 18:03 |
tch__ |
iamaregee2: I will give it a try this weekend :) |
| 18:04 |
|
walterbender: got some ws-plugins to finish hehe |
| 18:04 |
iamaregee2 |
but there is some problem as they don't officially support python 2.7 with django 1.4+ |
| 18:06 |
tch__ |
iamaregee2: the website says " version 2.6.5 or higher", |
| 18:06 |
|
iamaregee2: are you having specific problems? |
| 18:06 |
iamaregee2 |
they support 2.7 python as well |
| 18:07 |
walterbender |
hard to believe 2.7 would be an issue |
| 18:07 |
iamaregee2 |
but the problem is there is no official support for django 1.4+ |
| 18:08 |
tch__ |
iamaregee2: you mean the packaging? |
| 18:10 |
walterbender |
anyone I missed? |
| 18:11 |
|
we haven't heard about Music Painter |
| 18:11 |
|
otherwise I think we are done for today... |
| 18:11 |
iamaregee2 |
tch__: actually the paths have changed in openshift from 2.6 to 2.7 , so I guess that's creating some problem |
| 18:11 |
walterbender |
thanks for the updates |
| 18:12 |
|
mentors: can you stick around for a moment> |
| 18:12 |
iamaregee2 |
I have figured out a workaround using https://github.com/ehazlett/op[…]t-diy-py27-django approach |
| 18:13 |
tch__ |
iamaregee2: I see angry unicorns...github is having a hard time |
| 18:14 |
iamaregee2 |
tch__ works for me |
| 18:14 |
walterbender |
tch__: the bits must be havign a hard time crossing the Andes. works for me too |
| 18:14 |
decause |
walterbender: can do |
| 18:15 |
