| th1a | replaceafill: So... do we need to discuss anything about this XML-RPC project? | 19:42 |
| replaceafill | the exact signatures for the calls | 19:43 |
| th1a | Meaning? | 19:44 |
| replaceafill | Needed operations: | 19:45 |
| replaceafill | People | 19:45 |
| replaceafill | enumerate people | 19:45 |
| replaceafill | get person | 19:45 |
| replaceafill | create person | 19:45 |
| replaceafill | modify person | 19:45 |
| replaceafill | delete person | 19:45 |
| replaceafill | i guess enumerate people is everybody in the persons container | 19:45 |
| replaceafill | just: server.getPersons() | 19:46 |
| replaceafill | get person: server.getPerson(person_id) | 19:46 |
| th1a | I think so. | 19:46 |
| replaceafill | but for create person i dont know how much data will chris will send | 19:46 |
| replaceafill | three attributes are required to build a basicperson object | 19:46 |
| replaceafill | person_id, first_name and last_name | 19:47 |
| replaceafill | but you can store a lot of other info for a person, like demographics for example | 19:47 |
| th1a | I would code it the way that is cleanest on our side. | 19:48 |
| replaceafill | Meaning? :) | 19:48 |
| replaceafill | just basic stuff? | 19:49 |
| replaceafill | i was thinking that if somebody needs to store demographics for example we could write another method for it | 19:49 |
| th1a | How does SchoolTool's internal API do it? | 19:50 |
| replaceafill | demographics stuff? | 19:50 |
| th1a | Well, if I want to create a person and set their demographics. | 19:50 |
| replaceafill | it uses an adapter IBasicPerson -> IDemographics | 19:50 |
| replaceafill | and basicperson also has some other attributes like prefix, middle_name, suffix | 19:51 |
| replaceafill | prefered_name, gender | 19:51 |
| replaceafill | i was thinking of using a signature like this: methodName(required_attr1, required_attr2, optional_attrs_as_dict) | 19:52 |
| th1a | for demo? | 19:52 |
| replaceafill | since XMLRPC doesnt allow optional attributes | 19:53 |
| th1a | I see. | 19:53 |
| replaceafill | the other side will have to send: createPerson("tom", "Tom", "Hoffman", {"gender": "male"}) | 19:53 |
| replaceafill | or createPerson("tom", "Tom", "Hoffman", {}) | 19:53 |
| th1a | Yes. | 19:54 |
| *** mgedmin has joined #schooltool | 19:54 | |
| th1a | The things to remember here are: | 19:55 |
| th1a | 1) Chris is writing a little utility for himself and you're extending something pretty complicated, | 19:55 |
| th1a | so it is easier for him to adapt to us than vice versa; | 19:55 |
| th1a | 2) I'm paying you. | 19:55 |
| replaceafill | ah cool | 19:56 |
| replaceafill | ok | 19:56 |
| th1a | So just make it work cleanly and sensibly from ST's point of view. | 19:56 |
| th1a | He can adapt his XML-RPC calls easily enough. | 19:56 |
| replaceafill | great | 19:56 |
| replaceafill | i'll stick to the required, required, optional form then | 19:57 |
| th1a | y | 19:57 |
| th1a | Later we may adapt this to fit better with mnet, but that's not a concern now. | 19:59 |
| replaceafill | yes i was thinking the same, moodle will send different data probably | 19:59 |
| replaceafill | userdata: associative array such as: | 19:59 |
| replaceafill | * username=>moquist | 19:59 |
| replaceafill | * firstname=>Matt | 19:59 |
| replaceafill | * lastname=>Oquist | 19:59 |
| replaceafill | * idnumber=>1234457 # unique ID shared by Moodle & SchoolTool | 19:59 |
| replaceafill | * email=>moquist@majen.net | 19:59 |
| replaceafill | * password_hash=>234lih23rlh2asldfjas | 19:59 |
| replaceafill | * password_hash_algorithm=>md5 | 19:59 |
| replaceafill | * ircnick=>moquist | 19:59 |
| replaceafill | * arbitrary_field=>arbitrary_data_string... | 19:59 |
| replaceafill | sorry for the flooding :( | 20:00 |
| th1a | Doing this first will give us a nice clear understanding of how to do the next mnet steps though. | 20:00 |
| replaceafill | th1a, Matt just asked: "Are we expecting to try and leverage this api for the direct Moodle integration as well?" | 20:04 |
| replaceafill | sorry, Brett | 20:04 |

| th1a | anyhow, you should just start working on this as soon as you can. | 20:35 |
| th1a | replaceafill ^ | 20:35 |
| replaceafill | i almost finish :) | 20:36 |
| replaceafill | looking for a better way to write tests for it | 20:36 |
| th1a | Ya. | 20:36 |
| replaceafill | there's a TestRequest class in the zope.publisher package that looks promising | 20:37 |
| replaceafill | th1a, can i create a subpackage xmlrpc in every package we're creating views for? | 20:37 |
| replaceafill | basicperson.xmlrpc | 20:37 |
| replaceafill | course.xmlrpc | 20:38 |
| th1a | y | 20:38 |
| replaceafill | cool | 20:38 |

| th1a | pcardune: Have you been talking more to Dan Meyer? | 20:55 |
| pcardune | th1a: not lately | 20:56 |
| th1a | Do you know if he's getting anywhere with that? | 20:56 |
| pcardune | pcardune: I suspect he is swamped with being a teacher | 21:05 |
| pcardune | as I have not heard anything/seen any tweets | 21:05 |
| th1a | Actually he's starting grad school, but perhaps swamped by that. ;-) | 21:05 |
