(once packaging is fixed) 20:39:16 we're looking to get some of the apps onto the daily device image 20:39:30 calendar currently gets a proper fix for tha packaging... 20:39:58 what's needed for the daily image, is to pass the license header check 20:40:23 weather doesn't have any license header so far (neither .qml nor .js) 20:40:42 even as it doesn't seems important: at the moment there's no design to work on, since the last one gets further explored and the compnents done till now are more or less needless 20:41:12 so with no visual design, there's not too much to do 20:41:16 you've seen http://design.canonical.com/2013/03/app-patterns-applied-weather-key-journeys/ ? 20:41:31 yes, but I ccan't read too much out of it 20:41:46 but yes, the visual design for weather is in progress 20:41:47 i think the easter break ate into some of their time 20:41:50 there is a lot to do even without design - the whole "backend" is missing 20:42:07 what's the backend? 20:42:18 the engine to fetch the data 20:43:39 megred yesterday 20:43:39 something got merged, but that's only a start 20:43:39 there should be a declarative model to easily access the data as properties 20:45:12 and one more feedback: tests are missing 20:45:26 are there items which need attention that we're not tracking on https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu-phone-commons/+spec/initial-weather-development ? 20:45:34 if so, please add them as TODO 20:45:45 so we can track them and unblock if necessary 20:46:51 so shall I add an item for tests? 20:47:15 sure 20:49:32 as said I can provide first tests, so it's easier to "just" add some more 20:51:45 I'll chase design in the morning and find out when we will have wireframes for the weather app 20:52:31 #action popey chase weather app wireframes 20:52:31 * meetingology popey chase weather app wireframes 20:52:53 is there anything else which needs attention? 20:53:09 m-b-o: I did approve one of your branches yesterday 20:53:25 the other was, I think, the renaming, which popey and I are going to be doing for all of the core apps 20:53:32 mhall119: thanks! 20:53:40 happy to contribute 20:54:38 as for tests, I just found out that autopilot tests can be written against QML apps, balloons gave me a doc on how to do it, and has offered to help write a tutorial or something 20:55:30 mhall119: there's no package for u1db-qml for now? 20:55:38 sorry, I'm catching up with the meeting, had a repair guy here earlier 20:55:48 m-b-o: yes, in the core apps PPA I believe 20:56:07 yup 20:56:23 ah, I see 20:56:47 mhall119: ok - so you don't need my help for the autopilot tests? 20:57:20 gusch: I don't know anything about writing autopilot tests, so yes we still need your help :) 20:57:30 I just learned that it's available to QML apps 20:57:58 mhall119: sry to interrupt, would you showcasing how to write autopilot test for all the core apps? 20:58:02 ok so tomorrow I' provide a first simple autopilto test, and a first simple unit test 20:58:24 nik90: excellent idea ☺ 20:59:45 gusch: that would be grt. Where can one follow you regarding the tests? I am asking because it would be better writing test right from the beginning to make life easier. 21:00:40 nik90: I'll provide a first and simple test, and then do a merge request 21:00:58 nik90: I'm hoping to get balloons to write up some generic info on that 21:01:07 nik90: you can ping me on #ubuntu-touch anytime 21:01:07 since he's the expert on testing on my team 21:01:55 gusch: nice..will do so.. 21:01:55 mhall119: I will also request him :) 21:01:59 gusch: do you have a blog? If you want to write up the process, I'd love to link to it.
