From BRL-CAD

Here goes my development logs and personal notes

Personal notes

   github branch "login" -> consisting of email verification+oAuth [Pull Request SENT]
   github branch "model-viewer" -> consisting of changes in the model viewer 
   github branch "feedback" -> feedback system implementation


BONDING PERIOD

  • Playing around with meteor framework
  • Getting to know how models are being viewed
  • Updated the production ready plan
  • Talking to Deepak, discussing about work flow
  • Finding resources that would help me develop back-end and go through my milestones
  • Explored three.js. Made a few alterations to the code, and saw the effects on the view. I am particularly
    unhappy the way the models are being viewed. Lacks clarity, color etc.
  • Updated production ready plan after a few words with Sean. Deploying the app as soon as possible
    shall be a top priority.

CODING PERIOD

May 25

  • I think I should shift the login portion to the end (after deployment). Otherwise I'll have to do the settings
    twice unnecessarily.
  • I'll work on the model-viewer page this week. Need to talk to Deepak about the front-end, so that we are
    finished with it completely this week.
  • Getting random colors on models. Confused :/. How to handle coloring (definite colors on models).
  • Smoother mouse rotation of camera [DONE] and Removed grids and axes [looks more classy]
  • Had some discussions, I'll get back to login now, from tomorrow then


May 26

  • made a gmail ID by the name ogv.mailer[at]gmail.com. I'll use this Email ID to configure mailgun,and
    hand over the password to the BRL-CAD team.
  • Implemented Email Verification of registered user. Forgot Password working fine. Changed Email templates
  • omniAuth remains. Basic issue would be to verify 3rd party login. Need for some searching
    (nothing impressive seen yet).
  • Maybe I know what to do.

page May27 - May 29

  • I just went to my cousin's place for a hangout.
  • Tech-fest in college, loads of meetings.
  • Back to OGV from tomorrow

May 30

  • In my searching for the solution I found a repo that has implemented github login, and is working fine there.
    I will be taking some reference from there for sure.
  • Made a sample app and added user accounts in it. Added omniAuth successfully in the sample app.
  • Still confused. It's the only part left in login. I'll need to ask about it from someone.

May 31

  • Its early in the morning. And I found the bug, residing in router.js -_-.
  • omniAuth will be finished by tonight. I am relaxed.
  • Login system of OGV is production ready.
  • User will be removed from DB, if he does not verifies his/her email within x hours.
   Login
   Registering and email verification working fine (done via mailgun)
   Forgot password mails are going as well
   omniAuth added: google and github (facebook after deployment)
   User entry from DB will be deleted if email is not verified within x hours


   Some points to take note of regarding oAuth:
   1. Will require setup of configuration from your side
   2. Therefore, you won't be able to test on localhost until and unless you configure googe/facebook/github.
   3. I'll do the configurations after deployment
   4. The back-end part for omniAuth is complete. (you can ask for a video as well :D)

  • tried adding the delete button for a model. I think code is right, why is it not working is the issue. confused :/
