th1a | hi replaceafill. | 22:01 |
---|---|---|
replaceafill | hey th1a | 22:01 |
th1a | How are you doing? | 22:02 |
replaceafill | i fixed the issue with layouts in multiple years | 22:03 |
replaceafill | i also fixed the issue i found last year with interventions | 22:03 |
replaceafill | last week* | 22:04 |
replaceafill | :) | 22:04 |
replaceafill | i'm back in the transcript | 22:04 |
replaceafill | i should finish it today | 22:04 |
replaceafill | oh | 22:04 |
replaceafill | and i added the fields David Ally requested | 22:04 |
th1a | Great. | 22:04 |
replaceafill | not sure what to do about the importer/exporter he suggested | 22:05 |
th1a | I'm going to put off writing an export for him until we really know where it is going and what their requirements are. | 22:05 |
replaceafill | ah ok | 22:05 |
th1a | There is really NO POINT in guessing on that. | 22:05 |
replaceafill | agree | 22:05 |
replaceafill | oh, the ABC's IT manager answered last week too | 22:06 |
replaceafill | saying that they're going to try it out | 22:06 |
th1a | Yeah I was going to ask my mother in law to translate that for me but I forgot. | 22:06 |
replaceafill | so i hope they contact me again... | 22:06 |
replaceafill | :D | 22:06 |
th1a | Well, you might have to actually follow up if they don't. ;-) | 22:07 |
replaceafill | sure | 22:07 |
replaceafill | one thing i liked about his last email is that they seem to have a person | 22:07 |
replaceafill | who acts as a link between them and the ministry of education | 22:07 |
replaceafill | data interchange he said | 22:08 |
replaceafill | that's interesting | 22:08 |
th1a | Yeah, well, when you have money... | 22:08 |
replaceafill | :) | 22:08 |
th1a | All tings are possible. | 22:08 |
th1a | things | 22:08 |
replaceafill | so, my last question for you is | 22:08 |
replaceafill | what's the goal for thursday? | 22:08 |
replaceafill | you mentioned importers in the original plan | 22:08 |
replaceafill | assumming we leave parents access out | 22:09 |
replaceafill | which btw i also tested last week | 22:09 |
th1a | Async importers? | 22:09 |
replaceafill | and it works | 22:09 |
replaceafill | yes | 22:09 |
th1a | What's the state of the importers? | 22:09 |
replaceafill | aren't they async? | 22:09 |
replaceafill | or did you mean converting ALL the importers to async? | 22:09 |
replaceafill | cando, etc? | 22:09 |
th1a | Well, I'm not worried about the csv. | 22:10 |
th1a | I'd like all the xls importers to be async. | 22:10 |
th1a | Esp. since CanDo is the biggest. | 22:10 |
replaceafill | ah ok | 22:10 |
replaceafill | got it | 22:10 |
replaceafill | virginia has the sections importer too | 22:11 |
th1a | Also just making sure they actually work. | 22:11 |
replaceafill | cool | 22:11 |
replaceafill | i think we'll make it | 22:11 |
replaceafill | what happens after the 20th? | 22:11 |
replaceafill | we can still mess with the code, right? | 22:12 |
replaceafill | i've never understood this ubuntu dev cycle very well | 22:12 |
replaceafill | especially how it affects us... | 22:12 |
th1a | Yeah, we just don't want to be writing new features. | 22:12 |
th1a | Uh... | 22:12 |
replaceafill | ah ok | 22:12 |
th1a | Basically we want all the new features doneish. | 22:13 |
replaceafill | got it | 22:13 |
th1a | There's really nothing to *start* in the next three days. | 22:13 |
replaceafill | what are we going to do with the egypt report? | 22:14 |
replaceafill | David seems willing to start over | 22:14 |
replaceafill | if i understood his last email correctly | 22:14 |
th1a | We should try to get him to start over. | 22:15 |
th1a | Sorry I wasn't really able to update things over the weekend. | 22:15 |
replaceafill | np | 22:16 |
th1a | Do you have any thoughts about THIS THING: https://bugs.launchpad.net/schooltool/+bug/1280006 | 22:16 |
replaceafill | not really, i haven't checked that importer at all | 22:18 |
replaceafill | i mean, the timetable one | 22:18 |
replaceafill | i could try to reproduce | 22:18 |
th1a | No... | 22:19 |
th1a | Tell him to try making a fresh timetable? | 22:19 |
replaceafill | i'm looking at what pieces use that havetimetables interface | 22:20 |
replaceafill | looks to me like the "round-trip" is not possible with timetables and sectiontimetables | 22:33 |
replaceafill | even if i don't edit the xls | 22:33 |
replaceafill | i get "not a valid day" error | 22:34 |
th1a | Huh. | 22:34 |
th1a | Does that break them? | 22:34 |
replaceafill | no, just doens't allow me to import back | 22:34 |
th1a | I don't think that was always a problem. | 22:35 |
replaceafill | the issue seems to be an empty schedule for the first section in the xls | 22:36 |
replaceafill | it's empty | 22:36 |
replaceafill | so the exporter send a "Day | Period ID" header line | 22:36 |
replaceafill | and since it's empty | 22:36 |
replaceafill | the following line is the header for the next schedule | 22:36 |
th1a | So... do you see a straightforward fix? | 22:37 |
replaceafill | he's obviously messed up the day/period id rows | 22:38 |
replaceafill | not sure how | 22:38 |
th1a | Wait, is this a general problem? | 22:39 |
th1a | You have me confused now. | 22:40 |
replaceafill | sorry | 22:41 |
replaceafill | ok | 22:41 |
replaceafill | the error happens when the schedule is created | 22:41 |
th1a | Any time you try to round trip. | 22:42 |
replaceafill | no, the problem i just found is because a section (from jelkner) has an empty schedule | 22:43 |
replaceafill | making the round trip to fail | 22:43 |
replaceafill | that's another/diffrent bug | 22:43 |
replaceafill | different* | 22:43 |
th1a | OK, well, yes, there are likely to be fragile bits in there still. | 22:44 |
th1a | So basically this guy made a random change. | 22:44 |
replaceafill | right | 22:45 |
th1a | I guess I should suggest just starting the timetable over? | 22:45 |
th1a | Manually? | 22:45 |
replaceafill | but the importing failed, right? | 22:45 |
replaceafill | so, nothing has changed | 22:46 |
replaceafill | in his data | 22:46 |
th1a | OK. | 22:47 |
replaceafill | i'm not sure you and i are referring to the same issue :D | 22:47 |
th1a | I'll ask. | 22:47 |
replaceafill | i think you mean the "School Timetables" sheet | 22:47 |
th1a | https://bugs.launchpad.net/schooltool/+bug/1280006 | 22:47 |
replaceafill | his error is in the "SectionTimetables" one | 22:47 |
th1a | Oh. OK. | 22:47 |
replaceafill | in any case i'm already in the rabbit hole :( | 22:48 |
replaceafill | i'll get out | 22:48 |
replaceafill | i'd ask "what did you try to do" | 22:48 |
th1a | I just asked a question. | 22:49 |
th1a | Do you want to meet tomorrow regular time to go over the transcript? | 22:49 |
replaceafill | can we do it 9 pm? | 22:49 |
replaceafill | i have a meeting with the hilt foks | 22:50 |
replaceafill | folks* | 22:50 |
replaceafill | at 8:30 m | 22:50 |
replaceafill | pm* | 22:50 |
th1a | Is that enough time for them? | 22:51 |
replaceafill | yeah | 22:51 |
replaceafill | we usually meet for 15-30 mins | 22:51 |
th1a | OK. 9:00 then. | 22:52 |
replaceafill | cool | 22:52 |
th1a | OK. Thanks. See you then. | 22:53 |
th1a | Anything else? | 22:53 |
replaceafill | no, i'm done | 22:54 |
replaceafill | thanks th1a | 22:54 |
* th1a drops the bag of gravel. | 22:55 |
