akhilesh: Updated ! If it's still not clear don't hesitate to ask questions

reosarevok: is your question about MusicBrainz::Server::Entity::PlaceAlias?

No, about root/place/aliases.tt etc

reosarevok: maybe because alias definition depends on entity type

hi iliekcomputers

ping me when you're here?

But we already have a shared Aliases component

These are basically selecting layouts

I'm sending a PR, and you can let me know if you think it's not an improvement :)

Although apparently it's a MAD idea :p

Mr_Monkey: Thanks:) Now clear to me! I am start working in this. If any problem accures then I will reach you.

OK :)

hi Mr_Monkey

Hello !

so, maybe I need your help

I started looking at moving AB to webpack yesterday

I think I have js/react/jsx working

reosarevok: there is no reason not to use layout picker but it may still require specific template for artist at least.

still looking at less/bootstrap/lobes

Did you light all the candles, and does the pentagram have the correct number of points?

are you planning/have you done something similar with your react work on LB? or is that pending?

I copied and pasted lots of examples from a huge number of blog posts, does that count?

Struggling with less compilation, I must confess. It's currently not ideal with Webpack, but I've got my eyes on some open issues to fix it in BB. That's why we still currently don't use Webpack for production, only for dev

ok, right

For LB, nothing of the sort yet.

I was _sure_ that I had used webpack before, and I finally found it in another project that I use

I even upgraded it from wp3 to 4, so spent quite some time with it

What issue(s) are you running into?

it has less compilation, but it doesn't compile bootstrap from source

I don't have the laptop with me, so I can't tell you. but perhaps we could sit down and look at it some time

I suspect it's an issue with paths

Hello, I am Prajjwal Jha from IIT Mandi. I am interseted in contributing to metabrainz. My main interests lies in Machine Learning. Can anyone guide me which projects I should look forward for getting started? Thankyou!!!

require("bootstrap"); - I don't know if this is "bootstrap" from package.json, or if it's from our copy here: https://github.com/metabrainz/acousticbrainz-se...

Welcome prajjwal !

what's that directory? I don't know! is it a particular version of bootstrap? is it lobes? who knows!

Huh.

since you know about lobes maybe we can sit down together one day and see if we can work it out

are we still on for sunday?

Hah

That.

yeah, let's plan to do that. cool

hi prajjwal, we ask all GSoC students to start here: https://musicbrainz.org/doc/Development/Summer_...!

alastairp: It looks to me like that `require("bootstrap");` loads the NPM package. Maybe that's why it's not compiling from source. No idea why there's a bootstrap directory…

Hello alastairp . I have already gone through this link and was facing some problem in doing local installation. I am trying to do it and if I face some problem, i will ask here.

Quite possibly to be able to load the variables.less file

Mr_Monkey: to be fair, I have no plugins to load .less files yet, the error I was getting was something like "cannot find bootstrap", pointing to that line

Ah here we go. Well, that should compile from source… https://github.com/metabrainz/acousticbrainz-se...

today's job, at least

Let's hack it on Sunday then, if it can wait

prajjwal: good! So you should have got to https://wiki.musicbrainz.org/Development/Summer... about asking questions, we're happy to help you if you have a specific question about a specific project

Mr_Monkey: it can absolutely wait, let's look at it then

yvanzo: Oh, true. Well, we could also just add that on the main template if artist, but we'll see :)

hello, Do we have project/ideas page for gsoc 2019 .?

projects link on getting started page are for gsoc 2018

same with ideas page

iliekcomputers: you about?

ruaok: I already pinged him... seems like no :)

k. you needed something last night. did that get resolved?

just wanted to let you both know about https://tickets.metabrainz.org/projects/LB/issu...

LB-420: Click 7 replaces _ in commands with -

which is going to affect many commands in LB manage.py the next time someone does a bulk upgrade of versions in requirements.txt

it's not urgent, as long as we continue pinning click 6 in the requirements

I wonder if we should document these sorts of things in requirements.txt itself, but that doesn't work if it gets re-generated.

maybe requiresments_notes.txt ?

yeah

properly spelled, perhaps?

or DEVELOPERS.md

or a Developers section in readme

I asked in the flask irc channel and the response was basically "- is easier to type than _ so you should thank us" :(

ruaok: "https://wiki.musicbrainz.org/Development/Summer_of_Code" this page don't have info for 2019 project.

this page says to refer getting started page for GSoC

And under do "some homework" section of getting started it have links for project ideas page

kartikpandey2: (note that we don't know if metabrainz will be accepted into GSoC this year yet, it's possible that we won't finish the documents for this year until we are sure that we will go ahead with it)

well, that is all we have right now. we need to start working on it very soon

ohh, ok ok.

however, many of our ideas weren't worked on previously, if you're interested in looking at a task you could work out what was done in previous years and remove them from your list of considerations

we'd definitely look favourably on someone who was able to work out our tasks and see which ones have been done and which ones are still pending

Mr_Monkey: ^^

Oh nice !

That was quick

I'll leave your shirt on the desk in the other office.

Fanks !

alsatairp: ok :)

is that like verboten?

or https://www.discogs.com/artist/2705845-Musikverbot ? (and more to the point, why does discogs come up first instead of mb???)

because MB had no musikverbot.

lol.

and yes, it is verboten. music is verboten. which is why its a great band name. ;)

"and now, we'd like to welcome to the stage <<musikverboten!>>"

audience> awwwwww, *goes home*

ruaok, alastairp: https://beta.musicbrainz.org/artist/49136f50-9e... then

<3

not sure why you're helping my new future evil nemeisis, but ok...

reosarevok: nice

see, ruaok is correct when he says "it's much easier to just say something wrong on the internet and wait for someone to correct you than it is to do it yourself"

ding ding ding. :)

alastairp: ruaok: pong

hi!

hey!

nothing super urgent from me, just pointing out LB-420

LB-420: Click 7 replaces _ in commands with - https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/LB-420

related to the PR that I tagged you on for AB

alastairp: ooh

i think I fixed it most places in LB.

oh? how?

oh, I see

name=!

great

alastairp: did you see my writeup about AB 2018?

I did, thanks for doing it

it's open in a tab somewhere, I'll tryand put some notes on it

sure, that would be great, thanks!

iliekcomputers: so you're happy to keep _ in commands across all projects?

I'm OK with it too

alastairp: yeah, i think that should be okay.

I don't really have a strong opinion either wya

I don't really have a strong opinion either way

zas: Forums are extremely sluggish for me right now. Is there an issue or is it just on my end?

We're getting errors on telegram too

So probably not just on your end

Freso: working fine at my end

It goes and comes back. A restart might be needed.

took time to open homepage but after that its working fine

Freso: Why were the posts regarding notes on weekly meetings stopped?

This is the latest I could find https://community.metabrainz.org/t/notes-from-m...
