JamesTaitGood morning all; happy Hammock Day! :-D08:17
brendanddpm, sorry to bother you again - i would usually ask popey about these things, but do you think someone will get assigned to the file manager bug, and this calendar bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-calendar-app/+bug/134391609:17
brendanddpm, if it's not possible then at least we can take that into account09:18
dpmbrendand, don't worry about pinging me. I will ask some of the file manager developers if they can take a look at it and CC you, and we'll discuss it in the meeting later on today.09:25
mihirdpm: could you review this MR , i have modified according to your comments https://code.launchpad.net/~mihirsoni/ubuntu-calendar-app/i18Resolver/+merge/22755809:43
nik90mzanetti: ping09:58
dpmbrendand, can you see if that allows the tests to be run on a device now? -> https://code.launchpad.net/~dpm/ubuntu-filemanager-app/add-object-name/+merge/22769910:53
dpmhi mihir, sure, on it10:53
brendanddpm, ok10:54
brendanddpm, a click package to test with would be helpful10:57
dpmmihir, there were a few things still missing, I've added a few comments inline. Could you have a look at them?10:57
dpmbrendand, sure, give me a sec10:58
mzanettinik90: pong11:04
nik90mzanetti: hey I managed to implement the u1db timezonemodel feature. When you have time, mind reviewing it at https://code.launchpad.net/~nik90/ubuntu-clock-app/15-world-clocks/+merge/227539 ?11:05
nik90mzanetti: the most important part is void U1dbTimeZoneModel::loadTimeZonesFromU1db()11:06
dpmbrendand, http://people.canonical.com/~dpm/click/com.ubuntu.filemanager_0.3.232_armhf.click11:12
brendanddpm, thanks11:13
mzanettinik90: added some comments11:21
nik90mzanetti: regarding the implementation itself, I figured that U1db seemed to have a really simple QML API to create a Query and Index. This allowed me to focus on just transfering that to our base timezone model class.11:24
mzanettinik90: yeah, but then the naming seems wrong11:25
nik90mzanetti: yeah I can fix that. the rest of the inline comments seem pretty straightforward for me to fix11:25
nik90mzanetti: is this implementation method okay otherwise (in terms of performance etc)11:25
mzanettinik90: yeah, no big issues there11:26
nik90mzanetti: thnx :)11:26

rpadovanidpm, o/ So, I'm not able to run reminders on device, I used to use click-buddy. Do you know if something changed?12:16
dpmhi rpadovani, nothing that I'm aware of. What is exactly the issue? What image are you using? Are you getting any output on the logs?12:22
dpmrpadovani, have you tried Qt Creator as well?12:23
rpadovanidpm, last friday proposed from a fresh install, the app doesn't launch, with QtCreator I have the same issue, the error is12:25
rpadovani** (process:18254): WARNING **: Unable to exec 'reminders' in '/opt/click.ubuntu.com/.click/users/phablet/com.ubuntu.reminders': No such file or directory12:25
rpadovaniseems it search the executable in wrong directory12:25
dpmrpadovani, do you have the full log? IIRC we output each directory that's being searched in the logs12:26
rpadovanidpm, this is the full log from mobile12:27
dpmrpadovani, is there no log file in ~/.cache/upstart/application-click* ?12:29
rpadovanidpm, that was the file, only the row I posted12:30
dpmrpadovani, could you paste the full log somewhere? (removing any token-related data)12:37
rpadovanidpm, the full log of what? The file in .cache has only that row...12:38
dpmrpadovani, that's strange, it should have more output...12:39
dpmlet me try to set up an emulator with the latest device12:39
dpmerr, latest *image12:39
rpadovaniok, I updated to last proposed, I try again12:39
rpadovanidpm, if I install if from store, it works, I have problems only with packages I create by myself12:49

brendanddpm, sorry, took a little while for me to get around to it: https://code.launchpad.net/~dpm/ubuntu-filemanager-app/add-object-name/+merge/22769913:38
nik90mzanetti: addressed your comments13:40
dpmthanks brendand13:52
dpmballoons, could you take care of requesting the generation of the click package and store upload for https://code.launchpad.net/~dpm/ubuntu-filemanager-app/add-object-name/+merge/227699 ?13:53
dpmbrendand, ^13:53
brendanddpm, so what about calendar? did you get someone for it?13:59
dpmbrendand, I was going to ping balloons about it, but I think he'll be starting a bit later than usual today14:00
balloonsdpm, sure I can push fn14:07
dpmcool, thanks balloons14:24
davmor2DanChapman: Hey dude is it know that dekko refuses to work on 3g connection?14:28
davmor2DanChapman: also if you delete a file you are transported to the top of the folder rather than staying in the current position that make looking through and deleting crap mail really hard14:30
DanChapmandavmor2, hey there :-D No as far as I am aware it should work on 3g. It worked the last time i tried it, that was a while ago as I've been to lazy to top up my data allowance :-D So does it run and just refuses to fetch anything that isn't already in the local cache? or does it completely bail out?14:37
davmor2DanChapman: If I check the settings the minute I turn off wifi it basically says you are not connected14:38
davmor2If I click either of the other options it does nothing14:38
DanChapmandavmor2, hmm ok that's weird. I'll just top up my data allowance and test it, off the top of my head I can't think what could cause that.14:43
DanChapmanhmm and the delete file one is a strange one the only time dekko will 'kick' you back to the root mailbox is on a network reconnect, as our view of the imap server has been reset. Can you file a bug for that one please :-)14:43
davmor2DanChapman: not to the root, just to the top of the folder you are in,  So if you scroll down 20 delete it you are returned back to the top of the folder so you would need to scroll back down to 19 to be back where you were14:45
davmor2and when there is 3987 new emails you want to make the filtering easier when you turn on your machine Monday morning by deleting what you can :)14:46
elopioHello. I need some help with QML.14:46
elopioI have a relative path, like ../../file.ext, and I need to get the absolute path.14:47
elopiohow can I do that?14:47
davmor2DanChapman: http://davmor2.co.uk/~davmor2/screenshots-phone/device-2014-07-22-154738.png note the 3g,  now I'll turn wifi back on14:48
davmor2DanChapman: http://davmor2.co.uk/~davmor2/screenshots-phone/device-2014-07-22-154906.png only difference wifi is now connected14:49
DanChapmandavmor2, ahh right gotcha! bet that's proper annoying. I have an idea what may be causing that to jump back to the top14:50
* ogra_ has probs with dekko if it switched to offline mode ... doesnt let me pick Inbox after going back to online ... 14:50
ogra_i.e. when it disconnected for inactivity14:51
davmor2DanChapman: I only found these last week cause I was on Holiday :)14:54
davmor2DanChapman: bad 3g the baulk of the time.  So when I had a great signal in certain places I'd try it again and still no joy, but connect to wifi and straight away you got mail14:55
DanChapmandavmor2, thanks. yeah i'm seeing the same now, even starting dekko with wifi turned off it stays offline. Hmm well that sucks15:03
DanChapmanogra_, ahh yes i found that issue over the weekend, i've got a fix for that in the next update :-)15:05
ogra_yay15:05
ogra_one less restarting of the app :)15:05
ogra_(stopping apps is still way to painful)15:05
davmor2ogra_: I agree I want to just swipe the thumbnails off the screen15:07
ogra_i heard thats in the works for RTM15:07
davmor2\o/15:07
davmor2ogra_: thats a little thing that would make me so happy.  I'd just open apps to be able to fling them off the screen :D15:08
justCarakasDanChapman: maybe its also good to let the store also find dekko when you search for email :p15:08
justCarakasif I hadebt read it here I wouldn't have found it15:08
ogra_i found it by searching for email i think15:09
ogra_(because i had forgotten the name) ...15:09
justCarakashmm maybe I did something wrong than ogra_15:10
DanChapmanjustCarakas, that's a bug in the store not dekko,  ( bug 1337864 ) Everythings all set and correct on dekko's side of things.15:11
ogra_justCarakas, hmm, seems searching for "mail" is what i did ... not "email"15:11
justCarakasoki15:11
ogra_and it shows up here searching for it again15:12
davmor2DanChapman: https://bugs.launchpad.net/dekko/+bug/1346962 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/dekko/+bug/134696415:19

dpmballoons, thanks a lot for the file manager upload. Do you think you could have a look at the calendar blocker in Lukasz's e-mail too?17:45

raj__i am a newbie and want to get started with the app development. Can someone help me get started. If someone is already working on an application, I would love to get along and learn.20:18
raj__i don't want to do the cliched projects proposed by my mentor at college and I found this as a resort. Please help if possible.20:19
rpadovaniraj__, you can take a look to http://developer.ubuntu.com/apps/qml/tutorial/building_your_first_qml_app/20:30
kenvandinewelcome raj__!20:30
raj__rpadovani_: thanks for the link. as I am new to this I am having trouble choosing the application to be built and the tools required for it.20:32
raj__I am ready to learn things required to go ahead with the app building or maybe I already know stuff that might be useful20:33
raj__The confusion is with the choice of application that should start with.20:33
raj__It could be that I choose an application for which I'm naive enough or maybe someone else is working on the same one20:43
raj__stupid queries but can't help it :P20:43
kenvandineraj__, not sure what you mean?20:49
kenvandinewhat kind of application to create?  or what tools you need to get started?20:49
raj__both actually. the tools would depend on the former20:50
kenvandineyou can start with something that says hello world if you like :)20:50
kenvandinethe tutorial rpadovani linked should include instructions to install all the tools needed20:50
raj__:) yes! I followed that20:51
kenvandinehttp://developer.ubuntu.com/start/ubuntu-sdk/installing-the-sdk/20:51
raj__But, my plans are to contribute on a larger scale, say a complete application.20:51
kenvandineraj__, sure, but you gotta start somewhere :)20:51
kenvandinego through the tutorial and just duplicate it to see how it all works, etc20:52
kenvandinethen look to either get involved in helping on other apps or come up with an idea for something new20:52
kenvandineor even write a game :)20:52
raj__I understand that fact. As I mentioned about my mentor at college, I would need to intimate him with some end result (an app in this case) now itself.20:53
kenvandineraj__, but really as you are just starting out, follow through the tutorial to get familiar with the tools and the sdk20:53
raj__I sure will!20:53
raj__:)20:53
kenvandineand when you'20:54
kenvandineand when you're ready, you might want to look at what apps you use the most on ios or android and look at creating similar ones for ubuntu20:54
kenvandineraj__, it's the most fun if you work on something you really need or want to use yourself20:55
raj__hmm..okay!20:56
raj__How do I get along with someone already working on some app?20:56
kenvandinehang out here, maybe ask around on the ubuntu app developers g+ community20:56
raj__cool! and as I was saying, suppose I pick up an app say something like xpad (sticky notes) and there's someone else who's working on the same,20:58
raj__so is there some place I can check to avoid this?20:58
kenvandinenot sure20:58
kenvandinewe do have a couple notes apps20:58
kenvandinenotes-app and reminders-app (evernote)20:58
raj__that was just an example20:59
raj__i was just trying to indicate clashes20:59
kenvandineyeah20:59
kenvandineor ask on the g+ community20:59
raj__cool!21:00
raj__:)21:00
raj__Thanks for all the help!21:00
kenvandinehttps://plus.google.com/communities/11135078027092554054921:00

ahayzenballoons, just investigating this issue http://91.189.93.70:8080/job/generic-mediumtests-utopic/1105/?21:15
ahayzenballoons, and have noticed self.keyboard.type("myPlaylist") actually types 'myPllaylist'21:16
ahayzennote 2 l's21:16
ahayzenballoons, if u look in the trace it appears like it has held the button for nearly 1s? ... 20:57:04.601 DEBUG _X11:237 - Sending press event for key: l 20:57:05.333 DEBUG _X11:240 - Sending release event for key: l21:16
balloonsahayzen, are you using the helper to do this?21:16
ahayzenballoons, i assume so... i've never seen this fail it just broke on its own when pushing other stuff21:17
ahayzenballoons, this is the mp https://code.launchpad.net/~andrew-hayzen/music-app/listitem-actions/+merge/22029021:17
balloonsahayzen, I'd have to look at the music tests. The helper would check to ensure it wrote the text properly21:17
ahayzenballoons, this is where it types it http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~andrew-hayzen/music-app/listitem-actions/view/head:/tests/autopilot/music_app/tests/test_music.py#L49321:17
balloonsahayzen, ahh.. yea :-) you can use the helper for that21:18
balloonshttp://developer.ubuntu.com/api/devel/ubuntu-14.10/python/autopilot-emulator/ubuntuuitoolkit.html#ubuntuuitoolkit.emulators.TextField21:18
ahayzenballoons, but why has it suddenly decided now to stop working after like months?!21:18
balloonsahayzen, I assume it was a one-off failure21:18
ahayzenballoons, or was it just some random lag in jenkins21:18
balloonsdoes it always happen?21:19
ahayzenballoons, first time i've seen it...thought it looked strange so i thought i would check with u21:19
balloonsahayzen, I've never seen anything like it21:19
balloonsI suppose that says something!?21:19
ahayzenhah21:20
ahayzenballoons, jenkins may do #520 in a bit as i pushed two commits at the same time so we may find out then21:20
balloonsahayzen, sounds like a plan21:20
ahayzenballoons, i'll note ^^ link for when we do the refactor of the tests21:20
balloonsahayzen, yea, just one of the helpers that will cut down on custom code21:20
balloonsit has some failsafes for that type of error, which is why I asked21:21
ahayzenah cool21:21
ahayzenor maybe jenkins won't rerun...i'll just bump an empty commit if it doesn't21:21
ahayzenballoons, thanks for ur help hopefully it is a one off :)21:22
balloonsahayzen, you are waiting on a rebuild?21:23
balloonsthere's only rev 521 which ran up there21:23
ahayzenballoons, yep ideally21:23
balloonsthe mp shows having run everything21:23
ahayzenyeah can't see anything in the build queue... balloons can u trigger rerun?21:23
balloonsahayzen, of which? 521?21:24
ahayzenballoons, yes please the latest #521 :)21:24
