SCRUM meeting minutes for 25 January 2021
Peter
What did I do last week?
- Worked on using CSV files to provide data for tests
- https://github.com/gigascience/gigadb-website/pull/548
- Added step to create pgdmp files before running tests in gitlab-ci.yml
- Still having problems with 504 Gateway Timeout errors when running tests - https://github.com/gigascience/gigadb-website/issues/537
- Rija has suggested using circuit breaker pattern to check if external services are up and provide backup functionality if they are down. If its more complicated than implementing a try catch code then requires more supervision on what to implement.
- If external service is down then return empty string and add log message
- Core Seal Trust
- Wrote new preservation policy - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1j0sbrcP3vEn-7uEHCI5EihfWDm7K1IBwlsCVzeQNWOw/
What will I do this week?
- Core Seal Trust
- Finish preservation policy
- Edit continuation plan
- Work on whole submission
- Work on using CSV files for database migrations https://github.com/gigascience/gigadb-website/pull/548
- Look into 504 Gateway Timeout error when running behat tests
- Look at ORCID integration in GigaDb to get access to ORCID's production server
- Look at Rija's FUW pull request
Are there any problems in the way?
- None expected.
Rija
What did I do last week?
- Mostly planning work on how to perform live deployment. There is a beginning of a plan at https://github.com/gigascience/gigadb-website/issues/519. There are 5 stages to prepare for continuous delivery, spawn a live deployment and to consider a storage provider. Need to assess storage provider on our workflows.
- FUW not ready to go live with submission wizard
- Idea is to setup pipeline and deploy whatever is in develop branch and test FUW on storage providers. Record metrics to decide which provider to use.
- Changed documentation on summary of plan by Chris - https://gist.github.com/rija/c7377bdf5d43a0dda9a58c0368ff3569
