scholarslab / prism Goto Github PK

Project needs to be set up to be deployed on Heroku with all project members able to deploy.

style this page like the highlight page, with the addition of instructions/explanation, as on Ed's designs. Also update homepage link to the Sandbox so it goes to the correct page

SASS affords a lot of nice things—mixins, variables, nesting—that we should take advantage of in our style sheets. We should do an audit of our styles to find places where they can be optimized for SCSS. Plenty of places to nest styles definitely exist, so that's one area for improvement.

The eraser on the highlight page looks a lot like the highlight labels. Let's make that look different.

DUE 2/7

Use standard Slab logo. See praxis.scholarslab.org for an example.

There should be a space between "Signed in as" and the username.

DUE 2/14 - We'll decide on the visualizations we want to use at the meeting, but come to meeting beforehand with your ideas of what visualization options should be available to the user.

Project needs to have the rails scaffold in place

DUE 1/31 at meeting

ON 1/24 texts will be assigned to team members so that they can choose categories for test-highlighting on the 31st.

Navigation links are hard coded to page.html; these should use the link_to helper to point to the appropriate route.

This one is really for the design team.

Rails uses a feature called flash messages to communicate with the user. For example, if you log in but give the wrong password, it uses a flash message to tell the user that.

A place for these flash messages needs to be designed into every page.

Flash messages can be found in the templates using in the flash method. It returns a hash with possible keys of :alert, :warning, and :error.

The template needs to test whether there is a value for each of those keys and display it appropriately, for example, wrapped in a div with a class matching the type of flash message, plus styling.

Putting this in a partial template would keep the parent template cleaner.

Add the markup for the homepage, using dummy content from wireframes

DUE 1/31

Default locale should be set automatically by querying the GeoIP Lite Country database (see http://www.maxmind.com/app/geolitecountry)

We need to address a vulnerability in our code:

See https://gist.github.com/1978249 and specifically http://guides.rubyonrails.org/security.html#mass-assignment for mass assignment vulnerability since we have user data.

The application.html.erb needs a logo

DUE 1/19: Choose three texts (one of interest to historians, but three from categories of non-fiction prose, fiction prose, and poetry from different historical periods) that will be used in Prism.

DUE 1/24 - Will be decided on Mon 1/23 and Tues 1/24 and presented to team at 1/24 meeting to be finalized.

DUE 3/27

Users need to be able to set their localization preference in their user preferences (e.g. where they se their passwords, etc.) from the available translations.

Currently the version of jQuery that gets loaded with the view is 1.6.x; should be 1.7

On the login screen, the labels displayed to user are Email and Username. However, the username is actually the label password.

We need a domain name for the project

DUE 3/13XXX Due 4/3 (updated 4/2 by Lindsay)

Coffeescript tutorial will be 2/7

-- create gradients for each highlighter color
-- make the spans by each highlighter category the color of the highlighter

Rails released 3.2.0 on 1/20. Minor version needs to be bumped in Gemfile

jQuery is loaded in the asset pipeline (apps/assets/javascripts/application.js) and called directly in the header; the script tag should be removed and any additional scripts called with the javascript_include_tag

2.5.x is out

DUE 1/31

We need to set up a system for monitoring the state of the web application. Here are some potential candidates that play well in Heroku:

• New Relic (http://newrelic.com/)
• AirBreak (http://airbrakeapp.com/pages/home)
• Exceptional (http://www.getexceptional.com/)

Update the header partial to include the logo, short description, and main navigation.

• bring text title, author, date, and rest of text into visualize page
• create dummy visualizations in right-hand menu (see Ed's designs)
• don't worry about the angles on the toggle tabs

DUE 1/24

DUE 1/24 - during wireframe discussions on 1/23 and 1/24

Add dummy markup for the document highlighter page, not hooked into any kind of working prism application. Include text document and column for highlighter options.

DUE 1/27

We need to set an IRC deploy hook (in heroku) to notify the chatroom when the app has been deployed.

This project needs to have a license assigned

Wireframes for Prism include a short description of Prism in the header. We should actually write this, and add it to the header.

Routes need to force SSL for login process; can exit to http state after transfer of credentials.

The application needs authorization.

The highlighting tools should remain on the screen while scrolling to read document text. Add some CoffeeScript goodness to make this happen.

Currently the expanded version (for human eyes) is being called for visualizations; use the minified version (http://mbostock.github.com/d3/d3.v2.min.js). May also want to integrate in to the asset pipeline locally since it's not on a cdn.
