June 1st

  • Development device back and ready testing device and getting set up again with development software and environment
  • Studying, doing tutorials, and researching functionality Meteor.js, Three.js, and material UI libraries

June 2nd

  • Recompiling previous Pull Request with repaired dev environment
  • Planning out future updates, checking schedule and looking at issue list
  • Realized Authentication Bugs on OGV backend limited a lot with being able to fully see UI functionality

June 3rd

  • Focusing on fixing Meteor Backend Issues to be able to fix the functionality of authentication and to be able to fix the UI through being able to troubleshoot other pages which require certain authentication clearances

June 4th

  • Focusing on fixing Meteor Backend Issues to be able to fix the functionality of authentication and to be able to fix the UI through being able to troubleshoot other pages which require certain authentication clearances
  • Now combining UI fixes and authentication fixes and finalizing them

June 5th

  • Fixed Issue Regarding Meteor Authentication Service Worker Initialization Alert

June 6th

  • Fixed Meteor Authentication Alert Issue preventing most users from signing in properly after signing up
  • Fixed Error Image Loading instead of real image in page initialization

June 7th

  • Testing 3D object storage due to a BIG issue regarding its persistence on different service workers and accounts

June 8th

  • Planning to revamp the previous non-persistent mongodb 3d object uploader code due to the 3d objects not loading from the server properly (3d data object persistence issues)

June 9th

  • Creating a separate cloud storage bucket for OGV Geometry Viewer with Google Cloud CORS setup fixed for 3D files persistence and loading
  • Initializing firebase in the code

June 10th

  • Switching upload process in code to include NEW 3d data upload to firebase storage through anonymous authentication for upload to cloud storage (able to still utilize the old authentication process and transition easily to using other login providers in the future)
  • Able to load 3D files from cloud storage when interacting with other profiles and 3d Objects

June 11th

  • Went ahead and fixed the 404 Page Issue with Meteor Iron-Router

- https://github.com/iron-meteor/iron-router

- 404 Error Page Fix PR: https://github.com/BRL-CAD/OGV-meteor/pull/89

June 12th

  • Working on error being shown when upload fails for 3d object

- https://github.com/BRL-CAD/OGV-meteor/issues/63

June 13th

  • Getting closer to load 3D files from cloud storage successfully with CORS from firebase with meteor.js

-https://github.com/BRL-CAD/OGV-meteor/issues/90

June 14th

June 15th

  • Working on https://github.com/BRL-CAD/OGV-meteor/issues/53 to fix meteor default admin bug, looking into different ways to generate the randomized password serverside on the backend and not clientside on the frontend (may involve using firebase, but preferably an option which does not require adding additional libraries)

June 16th

June 17th

June 18th

  • Still Researching into https://github.com/BRL-CAD/OGV-meteor/issues/53 to fix meteor default admin bug on serverside without the security being able to be compromised on the clientside. May have to use third party authentication library to help

June 19th

  • Able to load OBJ files with CORS server settings set properly, now testing and making sure the other default upload file work as well

-https://github.com/BRL-CAD/OGV-meteor/issues/90

June 22th

  • Researching Meteor and working on the 404 Fix issue over the weekend

-https://github.com/BRL-CAD/OGV-meteor/pull/89

June 23th

  • Researching Iron-Router to be able to fix the pull request over the weekend

-https://github.com/BRL-CAD/OGV-meteor/pull/89

June 24th

  • Submitted 3 Commits on the PR to recreate the 404 page properly and display it in the right place fixing most of the problem, now the link in the text to go back to the landing page doesnt work half of the time, trying other options
  • I added the 404 page template to the error.html because error.html, error.js, and error.css control the 404 pages right now, and not all errors. Errors right now are actually controlled by alert notifications which I have to fix as well soon, because some of them come up at the wrong time, or are too intrusive.
  • When researching further into app.js and the relation 404.html has to it, the error.js is set as the default redirect and not 404.html. I believe the error.js implementation is actually set up as the 404 page due to how the set it up in Meteor in app.js
  • To quickly solve this, I added the 404.html to the error.js, error.html to not break the routing with iron-router and fixed some style to center the content.

June 25th

  • Through looking into the parent-child div relationship I was able to find out that the SVG clouds zindex inside the parent div was preventing the href link from working on the text, I went ahead and reorganized the layout for the 404 through centering it and properly creating a new transparent div for the text so it is interactive. This link for the 404 now works 100%

June 26th

  • Preparing the BRL-CAD OGV library for public hosting to more easily show my mentors
  • Creating another internal branch specifically for hosting as a Droplet in digital ocean or a hosted site on firebase (looking primarily into firebase)

June 27th

  • Realized model loading and and 404 are linked to the same routing, discussing about separating the routing so model loading errors and 404 page are separated the right way.
  • Hosting site on firebase, getting ready to share it publicly with BRL-CAD
