21st May

22nd May

  • Worked on File Upload module, tried various file upload packages.
  • At last settled for packaged named formidable from npm.

23rd May

  • Having done the first milestone, today I explored other frameworks and read more about the technologies involved. Did some work in expressJS.

24th May

  • Uptil now, I was dealing with file uploader in a separate app, today I ported file uploader to OGV.
  • Now we can upload files in OGV, currently any files can be uploaded but will soon change that so that it only accepts .g files.

Week 2

26th May

  • The ported file uploader started facing errors, mostly regarding styles. I was unable to apply global bootstrap. I couldn't work much due to some power issues at my home.

27th May

  • Today, I improved my earlier file-uploader by removing the dependency from formidable and directly use the 'fs' package.
  • As I have time, I am still giving Collection-FS a try, so that I don't miss out on anything useful.

28th May

  • Read about meteor collections, started working on file manager.

29th May

  • I was unable to work, due to some urgent work at home. Will make up for it by working more in coming time.

30th May

  • Completed the new file uploader (except validations), and added it into main code. Looking into rendering part and routers.

31st May

  • Added Basic router file.
  • Each user will now have it's own folder and uploaded files go there.
  • Added more comments in the code.
  • Implemented the file extension check, now only .obj files can be uploaded (will restrict that to .g files when I deal with g-obj conversion)
  • A bit stuck on how to pass errors from server to client via meteor.
