Re: [COUCHDB-2214] Dashboard as main page
Hi Robert,
By following given links and playing around with the code, I could
successfully implement a react component and display a text in the
dashboard. I added a new dashboard.less file to apply styles for that. But
it didn't work. Is there any configurations to do before using those less
files for the styles? As a next step, I am hoping to implement some complex
components. Specially, some movable items with add and remove features as
Alex suggested.
Best Regards

Hello Ayloa!
Welcome to the project!
I see you have found our Fauxton repo (https://github.com/apache/couchdb-fauxton),
from here you are able to pull the latest code, and view pull requests for improvements.
To get started contributing, I would fork the github repo so you have the latest copy on your local computer and github account.
Then create a new branch, for your own development, and then start to create/code the main page. As you are working on, rebase to the master branch (I do this daily, since the master branch moves fairly quickly, and can easily get diverted from your working branch, making it more difficult to merge eventually).
This is a very exciting and fun ticket. :)
Let us know if there is anything that is unclear, or if you would like further steps. The code is in currently being transitioned from BackboneJS to ReactJS, so there are some parts that are still in transition. Not to worry though, after a while, you will get used to it.

Re: [COUCHDB-2214] Dashboard as main page
Posted by Dulanga Sashika <wa...@gmail.com>.
Hi Michelle,
Wow, seriously this is amazing :) I pushed this branch to my repo without
testing. But it is working :D. Thank you very much for your great help
Michelle. I'll send a PR today with few modifications. I think "Progress"
and "Update On" fields should be formatted.
And I'll switch to the CouchDB 2.0 from now on. I didn't implement any test
cases for this. My next step is to implement test cases for this widget.
Thank you again for your quick reply and great help :)
Thanks and Regards

Hi Dulanga,
I took a quick peek, and it looks like your widget is receiving information! Thats great :)
To get a persistent Active Task:
1. Go to Replications tab (in the left most sidebar),
2. You will see two tabs, make sure that LOCAL is highlighted in red on both
3. Choose an existing database from the dropdown,
the database you choose doesn’t need to have that many documents in it (even 1 document will suffice),
and type in any name you want for a new database in the other text field
4. Click both checkboxes (Continuous and Create target)
5. Click Replicate (green button)
6. Click on Active Task tab (on the far left sidebar)
7. Under the ‘Active Tasks’ tab, you should see a table for your new created continuous replication, and it will stay there until you cancel it.
I haven’t had a chance to look at the code yet, but I am glad to see that you are hitting the correct end points, with the widget.
I have attached what it looks like so far on my screen. Awesome progress so far :)
Let me know when you want to create different types Active Tasks, to see how they would look in the widget.
Another thing I noticed is that the widget CSS in with CouchDB 2.0 in unwieldy. So, this is *optional* for you, but we are planning on releasing 2.0 soon-ish, so it would be a nice thing if you could update your system so you are coding with the most developer preview version, so that in case 2.0 gets released during the summer, you won’t have to go back and change it again. CSS is tricky enough as it is.
There are several things I can think of for you to do, but don’t want to overwhelm you, plus I think your proposal and the JIRA ticket is a good guide for the next steps. If you’re unsure, let us know what you think the next steps are, and we’ll try to guide you. There are some known pitfalls :) but don’t worry we all help each other out of them.

Hi Dulanga,
Probably the easiest (and fastest way) way for us to give feedback would be for you to open a PR. That way we can comment on the code inline, and we can pull the repo down and see how it works in our environment faster.
I’ll pull your branch now, and take a look, but if you want more people to review and the easiest thing you can do is open a PR. That would help us out. It’s okay that it’s not an actual pull request, you can put [WIP] in the title and people are kind enough to know that work-in-progress means it’s not ready yet. Personally, as a developer, I rarely look at the WIP branches, unless I have a reason, like a request to do so.

Re: [COUCHDB-2214] Dashboard as main page
Posted by Dulanga Sashika <wa...@gmail.com>.
Hi all,
I implemented the first widget in the dashboard. You can find it in
https://github.com/wadsashika/couchdb-fauxton/tree/2214-Dashboard-as-main-page
I didn't send a PR since I need to test the functionality more. I couldn't
generate any active tasks to test this. Michelle told me about two way to
generate active tasks. Now I am trying to do that. If you have any
suggestions to do it in easy way, please help me. And really sorry for the
late reply.
Cheers :)

Hi Dulanga, Hi Nadeeshaan,
welcome! :)
Michelle, Ben and me will mentor this summer. And the community
bonding period just started!
We will help you regarding the design of your widgets and revision
browser and we will try to provide feedback on your code on a daily
basis - that means that we either will comment on your branch on
GitHub or an open PR on a daily basis.
You might already know that writing unit and integration tests is an
absolute must for getting code merged into master.
The goal is to make small steps in an iterative way and get the MVP
merged as soon as possible. After that we will iterate and can add
more features. This ensures we have first results our users can make
use of very early in the process and don't have to throw all code away
if we run out of time.
Please use the time to learn more about Apache CouchDB, read:
- http://couchdb.apache.org/bylaws.html
- http://couchdb.apache.org/conduct.html
We will invite you to our Fauxton standup next week or the following
one, I will contact you a few days before. It is 16:00 (Berlin
Timezone) on Google Hangouts.
Best,
Robert

Dear all,
Thank you very much for supporting me to achieve this success in GSoC 2015.
I will not get accepted for GSoC 2015 without all your great help. Special
thanks should go to Robert and Alexander who guide me really well and help
me to understand the project and create a good proposal for the project.
Looking forward to start the project and working with you all. Thank you
very much again.

Hi Dulanga,
Given you named your module `documents` you must have your main less
file for the module in `assets/less` and name it `documents.less`.
Example: https://github.com/apache/couchdb-fauxton/blob/master/app/addons/documents/assets/less/documents.less
