New Developer

Hi,

I would like to contribute in Corinthia project that it is a 
very interesting for me. Actually, I love processing and generating 
documents in different formats and I do for living. So, I will be glad 
to collaborate in this project.

Franz de Copenhague is an alias and my real name is Juande Manjon and you can see my profile on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/jdmanjon

Do you have a getting started or any guide for future newbie contributors? Any update for Windows build?

Have a nice weekend!
Franz

This is the place for discussion about everything Corinthia.

The Apache Software Foundation has a mantra "if it didn't happen on the list, it didn't happen". We are about "Community over code". Here is where our community grows and develops! In the open and for the public good.

Welcome to Corinthia!

Regards,
Dave

Hi Peter,

All of them are very interesting,  actually I have C++ experience on Qt  and
OOXML/ODF filter development. Currently, I am reading about javascript
because I want to know more about web technologies and working on a
web-based application looks a developer challenge task for me. And by the
other side, working on C is less attractive. 

So, my first choice is definitely web-based but I will be glad to work a
little on the ODF filter design, in which I can provide very good feedbacks
because of my previous experience dealing with it.

Regarding to the limited documentation, with the dev-list responses I was
able to get the code and build and debug on Windows following Gabriella and
Jan instructions (Thank you) for git and external batch.

I did have a look at the code and current functionality of the dfutil and
dfconvert. And I have some technical and architecture questions about how
web application interfaces with DocFormat library. Is this list the right
place to discuss or brainstorm ideas?

Thanks,
Juande

Hi Juande, and welcome!

Currently documentation for new contributors is very limited, and something we’re hoping to get sorted out in the near future. I’m hoping to find some time in the following week to write up an overview of the editing API, as well as sketch out a skeleton of the ODF support code in the file format conversion library.

Currently we have the following main efforts:
- Building a Qt-based application for end-users, which will enable editing of documents (Jan has just recently gotten started on this)
- Building a web-based application which can be used in a similar fashion to Google docs
- Adding ODF support to the DocFormats library

Let us know what most interests you, or if you have anything else you’d like to do with the project, and we can help you get started.

Also for anyone who’s new to Git, I strongly recommend the following:

http://git-scm.com/book/en/v2 <http://git-scm.com/book/en/v2>

Git’s user interface is as unfriendly as hell, but this book explains the underlying concepts (the graph-based representation of version history, non-linearity, and distribution) and how it differs conceptually from SVN. I read through the whole thing on a long overnight bus ride just before I began using Git and it made it very easy to understand Git relative to if I didn’t know about what was going on underneath in terms of the database.

Re: New Developer

I've removed the (no longer applicable) --origin advice:

The --origin option tells git to name the remote apache instead of the
default, origin; this will reduce ambiguity when we later add a second
remote upstream:

Regards the editing, to get Confluence to put a CR into a table without an
extra line being added, use Enter+shift.

Likewise, Confluence at times acts differently if there is no 'seperating'
space to the above, it probably thinks that what you're doing now is part
of what is right above it, so despite you saying 'make a paragraph it will
insist that it's a heading and so on. Add a space and a CR (which you then
later can remove by back spacing) and it will be unconfused. ;-)

I cleaned the page somewhat. The complexity comes from a time, when we (or
at least I) thought we would automatically connect commit with jira issueas.

Gabriella@ I think I broke some of your nice formatting, but I cannot see
why it changes font, maybe you can give it a look.

Today is actually the first time I looked at the Git FAQ. We don’t need the second remote or any reference to GitHub at all (I don’t know why it’s there). The following command is the one and only thing you need:

git clone https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator-corinthia.git

Actually (being a git relative newbie) I do not understand why we need this
"git remote" stuff, I have now for 2 month worked without it.

Maybe it has to do with if somebody pushes a change on github, but apart
from that I have no idea why.

Peter@ any clue ?

I will ask the git guru in infra next time I see him.

Thanks Juande, added :)

Ps.: I'm a git newbie too, I used svn before.  It took me ages to work out
that the equiv. of 'svn reset' is 'git stash' :-D (hmm, maybe should add
that to the FAQ!)

Hi Gabriella,

Thank you for the info! Very useful because I am not very familiar with git.

I miss a cd incubator-corinthia between both git commands in the wiki page.

git clone --origin apache https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator-corinthia.gitcd incubator-corinthia/git remote add github https://github.com/apache/incubator-corinthia.git

Hi.

We are always happy to have new people joining to help.

We have lots of things we want to do, right now we are starting on making
the ODF filter, maybe that is something you would like to help with.

I believe Gabriella one of our newest C developers just updated the wiki on
how to get the source code.

Windows build is quite easy.
- you clone the git source (see wiki)
- you use the scripts in externals to download and install the needed
external libraries
- you run cmake in the build directory (e.g. cmake -G "Visual Studio 12"
..")
- you open the solution and build.

We are happy to help, just ask.

As a funny side remark, I am Danish and lived years in copenhagen, before I
moved to southern spain.

Welcome
jan I.
