features wanted

list of features wanted, most from a discussion with kc8pxy (some will be taken care of by him/his coders), others need my help.

• settings page (admin password, everything in the defaults table, metadata too..)
• 01:17 <kc8pxy> volunteer certification trancking
  • 01:17 <Ryan52> aka contact_types? :)
  • 01:18 <kc8pxy> btu i don't want unilateral designation.
  • 01:18 <kc8pxy> i want to have 2 or 3 people to "vote" them competent.

way too old saturday todo list

• cleanup the data that was deadbeat during the coveredness time. it doesn't have the field set called covered. (fixed in code)
  • add a migration to "UPDATE gizmo_events SET covered = false WHERE covered IS NULL AND donation_id IS NOT NULL"?
• DELETE FROM gizmo_events WHERE donation_id IS NULL AND sale_id IS NULL AND disbursement_id IS NULL AND recycling_id IS NULL;

i'm working on

• library
• get ticgit ready, and start adding stuff to it
  • port remaining 5 skedjulnator tickets to ticgit (I hope Richard won't mind..)
• finish sorting trac tickets, and move them to RT or ticgit

soon todos

todos for this release

• fgdb-announce mailing list
• track down bugs w/nokogiri
• get tests sane again
• get cruise control working again

next release

• add the onsubmit thing for contact_methods as well
• add onblur for the automatic line item completion thing
• skedjulnator
  • make it integrate with the "normal" contacts table and merging the customizations and defaults
• when editing a persons hours, add some way to get back to the original thing
• IMPORTANT: write a is_last_enabled_visable_there_field_thing_in_line_item javascript helper...there is a big mess there, and there are most likely bugs.
• merge markstos's docs patch
• add some reports
• ugh I kind of messed up...diff of this on nokogiri and before shows bugs:

./script/runner "include PrintmeHelper; (1..1000).map{|x| begin; SpecSheet.find(x * 5); rescue; nil; end}.delete_if{|x| x.nil?}.each{|x| begin; @system_model = @system_serial_number = @system_vendor = @mobo_model = @mobo_serial_number = @mobo_vendor = @model = @serial_number = @vendor = nil; parse_stuff(x.lshw_output) or next; ['system_model', 'system_serial_number', 'system_vendor', 'mobo_model', 'mobo_serial_number', 'mobo_vendor', 'model', 'serial_number', 'vendor'].each{|y| puts x.id.to_s + ': ' + y + ': ' + eval('@' + y).to_s}; rescue; end}"

needs discussion

• "points"
• returns
• volunteer scheduling
• staff hours

not fgdb.rb

• #13058: basiccheck -- floppy drives
• #12791: HD testing script and human interaction
• there's 2 more...I own the RT tickets.

blah

• fix our plugins stuff
  • move them to their own git repos
    • submodule them in
  • upgrade to the latest versions
  • forward patches upstream, and hope that they apply the changes
• reports over time:
  • conditions
    • add OR support to conditions ... this will be invasive, probably
• switch to rspec
  • fix existing tests how they are
  • learn to use rspec
  • start writing new tests

library

original list of things needed

• Lookup books from library of congress or similar
• Check out books to people
• Track checkout history
• Print labels
• Inventory list (so we can check to see what's missing, etc.)
• Looking up all overdue books
• (this may not be a complete list)

things left to do

before beta test

• search (mostly done)
  • need to make it use ajax
  • display results better
  • search by isbn
• print labels (halfway done)
  • format it nicely
    • works now
    • needs small tweaking wrt the limits on the sides and such
  • choose labels to skip
    • labels stuff supports it, just need teh interface
    • also need an interface to search for copies that have not been labeled, and mark them as labeled once you click the "the printing worked" button
• list books/history by person

before/during release

• moving from openbiblios schema (figured out)
  • add foreign keys, and create (or redo..) the migrations
  • need to create a temporary rails project that migrates the schema

later

• consider regenerating the xapian database on each start up. it might not be that hard on the database. I'll have to time it or something.
• isbn checksumming

things left for git

things that matter

• trac
• cruise control (useless since all of the tests are broken)

things that dont

• gitweb on devo (currently have it on my vps...)
• make the git repos publicly accessible from somewhere other than git.ryan52.info (alternate method is to just make {git,other-dev}.freegeek.org a CNAME to my vps :D)
  • should we also push to github? currently my scripts do pulling, but I guess pushing could be added..
• rewrite the commit email script -- it sucks (I can live with it now)
• figure out somewhere for the devel data to live that is faster than the horrible freegeek dsl (heh. I *do* have enough bandwith on my vps...guess I miscalculated or somethin)

should do soonish

• make it work with rails 2.2.2
• interface for adding contracts
• a way to disable contracts
• "power user" multiple systems per line item

for a rainy day

• review the diffs for nokogiri, keeping in mind the default behavior (// vs /) of the old parser
• should check back to see differences between the original version of fgss and see if they were intended
• look through *all* of the xpath and *all* of the xml to look for potential problems
• add the line items edit link for payments and contact methods as well
• validation is done on the submit button's onclick...why not the forms onsubmit?
• add notes via web ui
• speed up the regex in the vhosting stuff wrt printme, so that it caches results or somethin.
• coveredness without contracts is broken (in the js) -- no big deal
• figure out a more convenient way of upgrading to a new sprint
• covered condition (extra)
  • so we can see either. we don't need side by side numbers at this point, but who knows???
• update the documentation (meh, not *that* important)
• security fixing
  • CSRF (use rails' protect_from_forgery and verify methods)
    • Look at this: [1] looks really kewl!
  • check for SQL injection, we won't have to worry about this in most places since we use active record, but the reports where we use SQL directly should be checked.
  • Rails Security Guide
• look closer at the XSS stuff (safe erb) -- I got a lot of em
  • the on_display stuff for contact searches is an XSS bug, sort of. regardless, it should be cleaned up.
• remove cruft from that ajax helper thing
• get rid of duplicated data in code
  • permissions for various controllers are split between the sidebar and the controller itself
• fgss generic regexps
  • 18:44 < aSmig> this should match everything but 31: ([0]{5,}|123456789|^.{1,4}$|^[^0-9]*$)
    • false positives still exist ... figure it out
• move the vendor/plugins to their own submodules...maybe I shoulda done this first, since it's gonna get even more messy with the git bug...anyway, too late for that, whatever. I'll work it out :)
  • update them
