So, e.g. |
| 12:12.54 | YatharthROCK | tbrowder2: So I just do the regex replace and I'm done? |
| 12:16.29 | tbrowder2 | Yes, as long as "make doc" shows valid code (if I were checking it, I would check the patches looking for the format as in the task description). |

| 12:43.16 | tbrowder2 | Are you using the setup in the VM? |
| 12:44.24 | starseeker | YatharthROCK: if you whip up a tool to do the replacements correctly, that would be an awesome way to complete the task! |
| 12:45.31 | YatharthROCK | starseeker: Du-oh! Did you think I'd do it manually? |
| 12:45.43 | starseeker | some people would |
| 12:45.49 | starseeker | either way, so long as it gets done! |
| 12:45.58 | YatharthROCK | How about a follow-up task asking for the tool, and this task just asking for 4 documents? ;) |
| 12:46.06 | YatharthROCK | Pleease... |
| 12:46.09 | starseeker | heh - sure |
| 12:46.52 | starseeker | YatharthROCK: are you set up to compile? (i.e. did you do the build steps for CMake configuring?) |
| 12:47.31 | YatharthROCK | starseeker: No. I downloaded the source, but installed from the deb. |
| 12:47.40 | YatharthROCK | I dunno how to build it. |
| 12:47.47 | starseeker | YatharthROCK: one thing about automated tools - you want to make very sure it changed only what you intended |
| 12:47.51 | starseeker | YatharthROCK: that's why |
| 12:48.01 | starseeker | go to the soure directory and do the following: |
| 12:48.06 | starseeker | mkdir build |
| 12:48.07 | starseeker | cd build |
| 12:48.13 | starseeker | cmake .. |
| 12:48.43 | starseeker | if you don't have CMake, you may need to install that from your distro's package archive |
| 12:49.35 | YatharthROCK | I had to do this last year, so i have that : |
| 12:49.38 | YatharthROCK | It's building. |
| 12:51.03 | starseeker | OK, so once it's built you should see it re-building as you make changes to the xml files |
| 12:51.22 | YatharthROCK | starseeker: Ohhh... till now I was using 'make' for some stupid reason. |
| 12:51.33 | starseeker | you use make to actually build |
| 12:51.35 | YatharthROCK | No wonder it was showing me that stupid error. |
| 12:51.40 | starseeker | but you need to run cmake first |
| 12:51.43 | YatharthROCK | Wait, what? |
| 12:51.45 | YatharthROCK | Ohh... |
| 12:52.01 | starseeker | make didn't have any Makefiles to tell it what to do, because CMake generates them |
| 12:52.22 | YatharthROCK | I foud cmake using apropos. Reading the man page, I though it made the CMakeLists files for make to use. |
| 12:52.41 | YatharthROCK | Oh, you just typed that before me. |
| 12:52.53 | starseeker | so the error "nothing to be done" was because there were no Makefiles - if you run make in a totally empty directory, you'll see the same error |
| 12:52.53 | YatharthROCK | starseeker: So will i have to run make after this |
| 12:52.57 | starseeker | yep |
| 12:53.12 | YatharthROCK | Will it take a sh*t-load of time? |
| 12:53.22 | YatharthROCK | I don't exactly have top-notch hardware. |
| 12:53.31 | starseeker | since you are focused on the docbook, I'd suggest changing directories into build/doc/docbook |
| 12:53.45 | starseeker | then type "make" and it'll build just the documentation |
| 12:53.58 | starseeker | and whatever tools it needs to generate it |
| 12:54.03 | YatharthROCK | Uhh... you mean ./doc/docbook/build right |
| 12:54.04 | YatharthROCK | ? |
| 12:54.07 | starseeker | nope |
| 12:54.15 | starseeker | let's say your source is in /home/user/brlcad |
| 12:54.31 | starseeker | you should have made a directory "build" at /home/user/brlcad/build/ |
| 12:54.45 | starseeker | then cd /home/user/brlcad/build && cmake .. |
| 12:54.50 | starseeker | that's what's running initially |
| 12:55.02 | starseeker | once that's done, you cd into /home/user/brlcad/build/doc/docbook/ |
| 12:55.19 | starseeker | that's where the Makefiles specific to DocBook have been placed |
| 12:56.11 | YatharthROCK | Oh, OK. 10x |
| 12:56.18 | YatharthROCK | And how do you do a SVN diff? |
| 12:56.34 | YatharthROCK | Why don't you guys use git? Historical reasons? |
| 12:56.49 | starseeker | from the directory /home/user/brlcad run the command 'svn diff' |
| 12:56.53 | *** join/#brlcad awabimakoto (~awabimako@117.136.0.196) | |
| 12:56.59 | starseeker | that'll show you what has been changed. |
| 12:57.22 | YatharthROCK | So redirect it to a file and upload? |
| 12:57.25 | starseeker | I usually pipe that into a patch file: svn diff > /home/user/brlcad_doc_changes.patch |
| 12:57.30 | starseeker | er, yeah |
| 12:58.21 | starseeker | lot of reasons - we stick to a centralized development model |
| 12:58.33 | starseeker | svn is very good for that scenario |
| 12:59.06 | starseeker | everyone has to stay up with the latest changes, rather than working in isolation |
| 12:59.18 | starseeker | which we view as a Good Thing |
| 12:59.48 | starseeker | open source software is a collaborative process, but lots of times people prefer to go off into their own corner and work until their piece is "done" |
| 13:00.37 | starseeker | we try to encourage people to interact with the community as part of the development process - faster learning, easier integration of work, can help to avoid pursuit of "blind alleys" |
| 13:02.01 | starseeker | YatharthROCK: if you are comfortable with DocBook, would you be interested in other "follow-on" DocBook tasks? The image command updating is just the first step - after that, we need to get the images correctly sized and positioned |
| 13:03.52 | starseeker | that'll require having Apache FOP installed and working (I believe there is an 'fop' package for most of the Debian based distros) |
| 13:04.25 | starseeker | OK, I gotta run - thanks YatharthROCK for your work on this task! |
| 13:04.44 | YatharthROCK | starseeker: I dunno about the image one, |
| 13:04.47 | YatharthROCK | kk bye |
| 13:04.57 | YatharthROCK | What about the follow-up task for a sciprt to this task? |
| 13:05.12 | YatharthROCK | starseeker: The one that asks for the script, not just the files. |
| 13:05.43 | starseeker | YatharthROCK: I think that sounds reasonable, if you do in fact have a script that can do the update for *all* the xml files and change only what you're intending to change |
| 13:06.04 | YatharthROCK | starseeker: Uhhh... 'python script' belongs to 'script', right? |
| 13:06.14 | starseeker | is wary of unintended consequences with regex expressions and xml files ;-) |
| 13:06.17 | starseeker | YatharthROCK: sure |

| 13:26.31 | starseeker | can you update one more of those to make 4? |
| 13:26.37 | YatharthROCK | <facepalm> OK. |

| 15:11.57 | brlcad | I mean be careful about what questions you ask and how you ask them |
| 15:12.10 | YatharthROCK | brlcad: And whaddaya' mean, same as last year? You actually remember me doing that last year too? (I really need to learn after just being told once...) |

| 15:18.24 | YatharthROCK | brlcad: Also, did you see starseeker's task proposal to write a script to format all the image tags? |
| 15:18.33 | brlcad | by the way -- "what exactly is expected" is not a good question, if it's unclear to you state what you do understand of the task and what you do not understand |

| 15:23.07 | YatharthROCK | Why don't you just use a library? Googling for 'google charts python' gave lots of comprehensive and easy-to-use libraries with minimal dependencies. |
| 15:23.39 | ishwerdas | hi MartinHermida |
| 15:24.08 | YatharthROCK | I just want to know, can we return the chart as a finished PNG? |

| 15:33.38 | ishwerdas | MartinHermida: making it somewhat responsive probably by using fluid widths, can you do that? |

| 15:36.19 | MartinHermida | ishwerdas: I'll try, but if I can't do it that way will it be right scaling it with the CSS property 'transform:scale();' |

| 15:40.25 | brlcad | YatharthROCK: whats the current output of that class? if it ultimately is used to get a png, then you probably could just return an image |
| 15:40.46 | brlcad | you'll have to look at the callers of that class |

| 15:42.51 | brlcad | and again, asking me if i saw something isn't very useful -- ask what you're intending to ask in followup |
| 15:43.47 | ishwerdas | MartinHermida: Yes, but then you would have to add slight javascript so that it checks the width and height of the container div and whenever browser is resized, it scales accordingly. |
| 15:45.02 | MartinHermida | ishwerdas: By using transform:scale(); I think I won't have to use javascript |
| 15:45.21 | MartinHermida | ishwerdas: it's a CSS property |
| 15:48.05 | ishwerdas | MartinHermida: Yes, you can also use media queries to have that effect, what I want to say is firstly try it without transform scale, I am sure you will be able to do that. |
| 15:48.47 | ishwerdas | MartinHermida: Also, I guess transform:scale() has limited browser support for only webkit browsers (if I am not wrong) |

| 15:50.22 | MartinHermida | ishwerdas: It also works on firefox. OK, I'll try doing it with CSS, SVG and JS |
| 15:51.02 | ishwerdas | MartinHermida: SVG for what? |
| 15:52.30 | YatharthROCK | brlcad: It returns some HTML and embedded JS code. I now see why: it makes for higher-resolution, faster, possibly-interactive and expected code. |
| 15:52.37 | MartinHermida | ishwerdas: For the 'bridges' between the two white circles in the pink shape |
| 15:53.20 | andromeda-galaxy | brlcad: the pt function tests are taking ~3hrs for half of them due to the necessity of coming up with test cases |
| 15:53.29 | YatharthROCK | MartinHermida: It is possible to approximate it with only CSS, |
| 15:53.47 | ishwerdas | MartinHermida: you can do it without SVG and only CSS, can't you? |
| 15:54.00 | brlcad | tbrowder2: greetings |
| 15:54.31 | brlcad | tbrowder2: it's not acceptable, but I don't see what you spoke of in my immediate lot -- checking further back but feel free to PM me any names involved |
| 15:54.37 | brlcad | s/lot/log/ |
| 15:55.19 | brlcad | andromeda-galaxy: thanks for the feedback |
| 15:55.26 | MartinHermida | ishwerdas: I'll try to improve the 'connection' between, because brlcad told me it has to be smother |
| 15:55.42 | brlcad | that's pretty good then -- basically if you had to write it again, you'd probably easily come in under 2 hours |
| 15:56.01 | andromeda-galaxy | brlcad: can we break this one into two tasks? since the first half has taken so long? |
| 15:56.06 | brlcad | heh, don't smother me! |
| 15:56.08 | ishwerdas | MartinHermida: It can be done only with CSS, our last claimant 'binaryking' was able to do that, he just quit before he could make it responsive. He didn't upload that file on melange, but he shared it on IRC, and it was smooth :) |
| 15:56.10 | brlcad | smoother would be good though |
| 15:56.22 | YatharthROCK | brlcad: 'Have you seen it?' -> 'What do you think of it'? -> 'Is the task going to be added to the list?' -> 'I had written some code for it already while completing another task. Will the task be added?' |
| 15:56.57 | andromeda-galaxy | brlcad: The problem is that coming up with the testcases takes a certain amount of time, even when familiar with the code, because you have to make sure that you can actually put the right results in your testcases |
| 15:57.13 | YatharthROCK | ishwerdas: 'smooth' in which sense? No discontinuities? |

| 15:58.57 | ishwerdas | YatharthROCK: yes no space between various sub-modules and also the curves in the bridge between the various subparts need to be good (which binary king was able to do with a bit of assistance) |
| 15:59.56 | brlcad | binaryking's was off a little bit too, but some mentor let it pass |
| 16:00.40 | YatharthROCK | Even mine... :$ |
| 16:01.41 | ishwerdas | brlcad: Yes, but here at IRC he had a good amount of chat with me and during that he was able to improve, he also shared a screenshot of the results which were just what I wanted in the task (while I was writing it) |
| 16:01.43 | YatharthROCK | BTW I found the fix to the transparency problem: use a negative border-radius for the bridge using CSS3 gradients!! |
| 16:02.04 | ishwerdas | YathartROCK: exactly! |
| 16:02.37 | ishwerdas | YatarthROCK: can you share a screenshot of your best output here? |

| 21:03.41 | maths22 | Also, is there any documentation of the Com-Geom type itselft? |
| 21:04.11 | starseeker | maths22: um. I think the GIFT reports might have something... |
| 21:04.46 | maths22 | just so you know, after I had run it through ocr, table 2 (I think the easiest) took about an hour |
| 21:05.01 | maths22 | Thank you |
| 21:05.10 | starseeker | nods - yeah, it's tedious |
| 21:05.29 | starseeker | maths22: give me a second, I'm checking the GIFT stuff... |
| 21:06.06 | starseeker | maths22: could we write a script or something to help? (like, say, converting five characters consisting of either 0 or O to all 0?) |
| 21:07.59 | starseeker | maths22: try this - http://www.dtic.mil/docs/citations/ADB006037 |
| 21:09.27 | starseeker | maths22: if we need to scope the tasks to parts of the PDF file, that's fine too |
| 21:10.03 | maths22 | Does brlcad do anything with the names themselves, or do they not matter? |
| 21:11.04 | starseeker | which names? |
| 21:11.24 | maths22 | The comments/remarks fields |

| 21:16.23 | starseeker | maths22: for the transcription tasks, even a literal ascii text transcription of the report would be fine - if we need to, we can make subsequent tasks to assemble "valid" comgeom files |
| 21:19.18 | maths22 | ok |
| 21:19.26 | maths22 | Would an excel/csv file work? |
| 21:19.39 | starseeker | maths22: in my opinion, it's worth preserving the contents of the REMARKS column - it won't (currently) be reflected in the object names, but the converter should preserve it as an attribute even if it isn't doing it now |
| 21:20.03 | starseeker | I'd go with csv - excel is a commercial format - but that's a fine place to start |
| 21:20.21 | maths22 | OK |
| 21:20.59 | starseeker | maths22: and yes, it's expected that the solids table will take more time due to the density of the numerical information |
| 21:21.27 | starseeker | if you want to do your work in excel and then export CSV, that's fine |
| 21:22.00 | starseeker | or gnumeric, or libreoffice - whatever you prefer ;-) |
| 21:23.17 | starseeker | you might even be able to get acrobat reader to spit out a text file you could import into the spreadsheet as a starting point... |
| 21:24.41 | maths22 | I am using an ocr file to start |
| 21:24.50 | starseeker | cool |
| 21:26.02 | maths22 | Does table 2 actually have the descr in the final file |
| 21:26.41 | starseeker | you mean the remarks column in table 2? |
| 21:26.55 | maths22 | yes |
| 21:27.09 | starseeker | I'm not sure if comgeom-g currently preserves them, but if it doesn't it should |
| 21:27.18 | maths22 | . |
| 21:27.20 | maths22 | [4~ |

| 21:31.15 | MartinHermida | starseeker: Oh sorry, never mind |
| 21:31.38 | starseeker | MartinHermida: no need to apologize, I just have a really bad artistic eye |
| 21:32.26 | starseeker | looks like you're getting a lot of interest and feedback - someone should be able to look at it fairly soon |
| 21:33.14 | MartinHermida | starseeker: OK, so I'll wait for someone 'qualified' to do it ;-) |
| 21:33.48 | maths22 | I did not see it in the pdf you posted in the comgeom |
| 21:33.58 | starseeker | maths22: which "it"? |
| 21:34.06 | starseeker | the file format definition? |
| 21:34.25 | maths22 | the prsence of the remarks column |
| 21:35.32 | starseeker | ah - are you hoping that you won't have to review that column for accuracy? ;-) |
| 21:36.33 | maths22 | no- I just have to re-ocr it then |
| 21:36.54 | starseeker | maths22: take a look at page 47 (page 48 in my PDF reader) - Figure 25 |
| 21:37.33 | maths22 | That is table 3 |
| 21:37.50 | maths22 | I mean am refering to the one on 44 |
| 21:38.46 | starseeker | Ah, OK. so for that one, it looks like the "REMARKS" column corresponds to the "Comments" section, 70-80 |
| 21:41.53 | starseeker | maths22: ultimately, we want comgeom-g to handle the file as-is - my take on it is that means we should strive to be as accurate as possible in preserving what's in the data file as seen in the report |
