  1. 8:00 – 4:00 SR
  • Change the divisor in the PageRank class to be a scalar.
  • Change the ‘History’ list to show the ranked items. Either all, or individually. (tab view)?
  • Add sliders to the rating view in the feed. Will also need a save with associated PHP code
  • Add update rating PHP
  • Add update linkSelected PHP
  • Show the changes in the list of items as the sliders are adjusted.
  • add an ‘annotation’ field to the rating? Better tracking?

8:00 – 4:30 SR

  • And Dreamhost is back up. Looks stable too.
  • Had a good discussion with Dr. Pan about next steps.
    • A simple page rank based on support/dispute value is a reasonable place to start
    • See how sensitive the Eigenvector is to:
      • Number of rated nodes
      • Support/dispute values
  • The query history is listing multiples where they are linked to a Wampeter.
    • The data object is coming back with redundant entries (my_query_guid_5). It’s not there in the DB, so tn_view_network_items is wrong. Fixed – I had to add ‘distinct’ to the select that makes the view. I thought it would be possible to nest selects, but something about views made that trickier.
  • Wire up type visibility checkboxes – Done. Had to spend a good deal of time pondering how to deal with the on-the-fly recalculation based on how many links an item has and what it’s default visibility is. Still need to hide objects if they are unselected and should not be visible. TODO.
  • Make Reset Positions set the origin to zero. Done.
  • Deployed the new version.

Phil 9.29.15

7:30 – 4:30 SR

  • Server backups
  • Finish ‘link selected’
    • Build PostObj – done. Also constructed a default title.
    • New PHP query, which will require an array of ‘targets’ Done
    • Insert the new source, get the ID, Done
    • Add the associations Done
    • Added a new item type – Wampeter
    • Return the DataProvider (is it time to clean this up?)
  • Add show/hide checkboxes by type (URL, Query, Rating, etc.) TODO
  • Need to add a ‘guest’ or view only role/user. TODO
  • And Dreamhost is busted again.

Phil 10.16.15

8:00 – 5:00 SR

  • Added Ronda as an admin. We need to do something with groups but can’t figure out what/how to do.
  • Fixed Carla’s cert problems
  • Need to add ‘tolower’ on the names/labels of non-url items in the PHP, before the item is stored – TODO
  • Need to check if it’s easy to move the root object to where the selected item(‘s average) position – TODO
  • Need to be able to edit an item – TODO
  • Working on ratings
    • Making a ratingObject to pass between the controller, the rating directive, and the rssFeed directives. Done
    • Wired up the Rating directive to the RssFeed directive.
    • Reworking the rating query.It needs to create the item, get its id_index, then create an association between it and the target that has already been passed in. Done
    • Last thing to do is to enable the query in the rssPull.php and uncomment the submitObj call in RssController.addRatingSubmit. Cool!

Phil 10.15.15

8:00 – 4:00 SR

  • No change on dev admin
  • Need to add ‘tolower’ on the names/labels of non-url items in the PHP, before the item is stored
  • Adding rating directive today.
    • Starting with adding ratings to the data object and data format
    • Added additional shapes so ratings can be distinguished.
    • Killed Eclipse trying to run a PHP test
    • Adding a separate tn_rating to the network is going to be a lot of work. Going to see if I can use tn_items for ratings. They have enough fields, and I have the logic to treat items differently already. Ok, that seems to work. Going to delete the tn_ratings logic. Add rating will be the addition of a RATING item type and an RATING association from the rating item to the target (which can be any item?). Actually, this may turn out better. I can add COMMENT types and other meta information items.
    • Got most of the initial directive layout done and running. Tomorrow we’ll wire it up.
  • Need a show/hide selection capability. All, URLS, ENTITIES, SELECTED, etc.TODO
  • If that gets done I’ve been thinking about the addition of user-specified items. TODO
    • A new item should (must?) have an association with at least one other item.
    • Associations will be made with all selected items
    • Directive dialog to create the new item.
    • In the item list, selected and ‘visible’ items need to be color coded and labeled
    • Items need to be selectable from the item list

Phil 10.14.15

8:00 – 4:00 SR

  • Updated truancy report
  • Seminar today 11:30 – 12:30
  • Automated culling. I think I’m going to start with the cull on the canvas, rather than the server. This way I can still have the items in the list, but not shown on the network. This implies for an item to be visible (and for physics to operate on it) the item should be the source and/or target of one or more associations. DONE!
    • Tried to be fancy by just using the target array but I need a ‘source’ listing of IComponents.
    • This is what I needed to do, basically. The physics only require checks for visibility: 
      var tarray:ITarget[] = this.getTargetArray();
var sarray:IComponentBase[] = this.getSourceArray();
var numLinks = tarray.length + sarray.length;
var makeVisible = false; // or maybe we're also visible when selected?
if(numLinks > 1){
    makeVisible = true;
}
this.setIsVisible(makeVisible);
    • I also added a ‘forceVisibility’ argument to the config object so that items like Queries always show up.
    • And, because it was suddenly easy, I added the list of sources to the item selection code. So now we ‘shift select’ targets and sources, which feels intuitively right: 
      tarray = componentBase.getTargetArray();
for(i = 0; i < tarray.length; ++i){
    targ = tarray[i].target;
    if(!this.isModelSelected(targ)){
        this.selectedModels.push(targ);
        targ.highlight();
    }
}
sarray = componentBase.getSourceArray();
for(i = 0; i < sarray.length; ++i){
    targ = sarray[i];
    if(!this.isModelSelected(targ)){
        this.selectedModels.push(targ);
        targ.highlight();
    }
}
  • Rating. Need a new modal directive. There should also be a way of having additional information about an item, like an annotation. For example, in the query I’m currently working on, “Horse and Jockey”, There was a horse “Tirpitz”, which is also the name of a battleship. There should be a way to resolve this ambiguity.
  • Pagerank. “Links” are determined by shared associations.  TODO
  • Explicit associations TODO
  • Today’s Progress: Weeds

Phil 9.10.15

8:00 – 2:30 SR

  • Taking tomorrow off
  • No progress on dev machine admin
  • Added page rank function to PhilsUtils
  • Discovered that I still needed to pull fresh meta
  • Make it so that a shift-click on a BaseComponent selects all the items that the item is directly connected to. Done.  Bonus points for each shift-click selects an additional hop. TODO
  • Got my first linkage!

DriverF1

  • Next is some automated culling, and then adding rating/pagerank. TODO

Phil 9.9.15

8:00 – 5:00 SR

  • No progress on Dev admin
  • Work on correlation of concepts, keywords, etc. Start with ‘horse’ and ‘rider’?  TODO
  • Work on support/dispute TODO
  • PageRank in PHP TODO
  • Add ‘show/hide unrelated‘. Also, Invisible items should not have physics calculations
  • Add ‘center on selected‘? that would move the center of rotation to be any selected item.
  • Change the CSS so that the style of the buttons is taller It looks funky in some version of FF. Done
  • Clicking on queries in the network display doesn’t cause them to show up in the query window, but CONCEPTS do. Fixed
  • Adding ‘delete network’ button, since the workspace is getting cluttered. Done
  • Ran into a difficult bug to chase down. When I was deleting the last of two items (a query and an url) the url didn’t delete. It turns out that I was using a reference to an array rather than a new array of references. So I was deleting an item from an array while I was still processing the array. Ooops.

Phil 9.8.15

8:00 – 4:00 SR

  • Off yesterday for Labor Day.
  • More dev justification
  • Google Cloud platform java – https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/java/. The goal of this would be to calculate overall page ranks
  • Added Save for networks. In reality, this only Creates a network that is then ‘saved live’. TODO: Need to make that more clear
  • Work on correlation of concepts, keywords, etc. Start with ‘horse’ and ‘rider’?  TODO
  • Work on support/dispute 
  • PageRank in PHP 

Phil 9.4.15

8:00 – 5:00 SR

  • Lost my earlier post for today. Odd.
  • Added removeItemAssociations, which is essentially a delete item from the network
  • Fixed a bug that caused the oldes item regardless to be placed at the origin. Now it’s the oldest item of type QUERY
  • TODO: Add the ability to make visible items and their connections based on tn_type
  • Meeting with Ronda at 3:00

Phil 9.2.15

8:00 – 5:00 SR

  • Fixed a project name for Carla
  • Submitted a ticket for admin on the dev machine
  • We can see the new server in http, but not https, which is odd. Told Ronda about that, and and had Lenny send the url to some of the labs to see if it’s visible there as well.
  • Realized that I can use a view for the within network queries, where all the text can be concatenated, and possibly any associations as well? In other words, if the search returns a keyword or concept, all URLs that associate with that keyword can be displayed based on the relevance of the association…? TODO
  • Also, strip off any additional URL cruft? – Done
  • Housekeeping
    • Clear the network – Done
    • Overload the network and make sure that new items and associations don’t get added
      • Added check for items. Need to verify that associations already check. Yup, it’s there already.
  • Adding the pulls for http(s) and queries. Ran into a stupid bug where I was setting network_id with user_id
