| th1a | replaceafill: back. | 20:23 |
| th1a | Send me the script? | 20:23 |
| replaceafill | it's running again | 20:24 |
| th1a | Which script are we talking about? | 20:24 |
| th1a | Did you add the host record? | 20:24 |
| replaceafill | oh no | 20:24 |
| replaceafill | i forgot | 20:24 |
| replaceafill | i just marked the skills out | 20:24 |
| replaceafill | what was the host change again? | 20:24 |
| th1a | To grab the file? | 20:27 |
| replaceafill | yes | 20:28 |
| replaceafill | no | 20:28 |
| th1a | http://www.cteresource.org/CanDo/Import_Templates/06-verso_skills.xls | 20:28 |
| replaceafill | you said something about changing the host record | 20:28 |
| th1a | ? | 20:28 |
| th1a | Oh. | 20:28 |
| th1a | 96.82.2.152 api.cteresource.org | 20:29 |
| replaceafill | kk, thanks | 20:30 |
| th1a | replaceafill: What are you up to now? | 20:52 |
| replaceafill | a sec | 20:52 |
| replaceafill | the goal was to get the verso skills xls with the Skills sheet empty, right? | 20:53 |
| replaceafill | for glenda to review | 20:53 |
| th1a | Well, I tried to indicate it wasn't really necessary. | 20:56 |
| th1a | But it is probably helpful. | 20:56 |
| th1a | I'm going to forward an email from Glenda from yesterday (when I said the script was working fine). | 20:57 |
| th1a | Actually it is my reply. | 20:57 |
| th1a | If this is going to be CanDo day... | 20:57 |

| replaceafill | th1a, killed my laptop :S | 20:59 |
| th1a | Memory? | 21:00 |
| replaceafill | yeah | 21:00 |
| th1a | OK, don't sweat it. | 21:00 |
| th1a | I can't use the mac right now. | 21:00 |
| th1a | It is their problem. | 21:00 |
| replaceafill | ok | 21:00 |
| replaceafill | so switch back to docs? | 21:00 |
| th1a | I forwarded an email from Glenda from yesterday (when I said the script was working fine). | 21:01 |
| replaceafill | god this forwards... | 21:01 |
| th1a | It also has her general wishes. | 21:01 |
| th1a | Well, do you want every email from Glenda... ;-) | 21:01 |
| replaceafill | what am i supposed to be looking here? | 21:02 |
| replaceafill | my mental state...? | 21:02 |
| th1a | lol. | 21:02 |
| th1a | Well, just the overall status report. | 21:02 |
| th1a | What Glenda is worried about. | 21:02 |
| th1a | What I think the situation is. | 21:02 |
| th1a | It would be nice if at some point we could give her CSV versions of the reports she's concerned about. | 21:03 |
| replaceafill | csv? | 21:03 |
| th1a | Excel, CSV. | 21:03 |
| th1a | Whatever. | 21:03 |
| replaceafill | what reports are you talking about? | 21:03 |
| replaceafill | what reports she's concerned about? | 21:04 |
| th1a | Hm... some of the CanDo reports... | 21:04 |
| th1a | Let me see if I can find it. | 21:04 |
| th1a | The main reports that folks need in a csv export are the Virginia Section Report and the Virginia Required Skills Progress Report and the Completion Report. These are figures that must be used by division to complete state reports. | 21:04 |
| replaceafill | that's a new feature i'm afraid | 21:05 |
| th1a | Well, yes. | 21:05 |
| th1a | This would be, essentially, a favor to Glenda. | 21:05 |
| replaceafill | hhmm | 21:06 |
| th1a | That's why it depends on your feelings, not what we're getting paid. | 21:06 |
| replaceafill | this morning has reminded me how lost i am about all of this at this point | 21:06 |
| th1a | Well, that script is insane. | 21:06 |
| th1a | Did Justas write that? | 21:07 |
| replaceafill | yes initially | 21:07 |
| replaceafill | anyway | 21:07 |
| th1a | A csv version of an existing report is in theory not hard... | 21:07 |
| replaceafill | it is | 21:08 |
| replaceafill | that's my point | 21:08 |
| replaceafill | it's not tweaks | 21:08 |
| replaceafill | at all | 21:08 |
| th1a | Well, then that's fine. | 21:08 |
| th1a | OK. | 21:08 |
| th1a | I'll stop stringing her along. | 21:08 |
| replaceafill | you would think "if it's already coming in xls, how hard would it be to get a csv from it" | 21:08 |
| replaceafill | answer: very hard | 21:09 |
| th1a | Well, do I even know what we are talking about? | 21:09 |
| th1a | What form are these reports in to start with? | 21:09 |
| replaceafill | the whole report (background tasks) is currently designed for xls and pdf | 21:09 |
| replaceafill | the logic for producing the report is not well abstracted, like | 21:09 |
| replaceafill | this part calculates the data | 21:10 |
| th1a | This would be XLS or CSV, I was only saying CSV because I assume that it is easier. | 21:10 |
| th1a | OK. | 21:10 |
| replaceafill | and this part converts it into this format | 21:10 |
| replaceafill | it's all a single step | 21:10 |
| th1a | Ah. You didn't write those? | 21:10 |
| replaceafill | i did | 21:10 |
| replaceafill | that's why i know | 21:10 |
| th1a | OK. ;-) | 21:10 |
| th1a | All right. | 21:10 |
| replaceafill | for the record, all our our reports are like that | 21:11 |
| replaceafill | we may have working infrastructure but not adequate for this type of change | 21:12 |
| th1a | OK, that's fine. | 21:13 |
| th1a | Don't worry about it. | 21:14 |
| replaceafill | ok so | 21:14 |
| replaceafill | docs again? | 21:14 |
| th1a | Yes. | 21:14 |
| replaceafill | cool | 21:14 |
