v18 v19 17 17 18 18 19 == Outstanding tasks (as at 20071 031) ==19 == Outstanding tasks (as at 20071213) == 20 20 21 21 '''Data''' 22 * [MW,DM,DS] Re-do the find_archives.pl script. It will need to be fixed so that it matches the new schema of table "obs", and then re-run. Will have to delete the "obs" table that is in the database currently, so that it puts everything in there the first time round. 23 * '''This requires `vap` to be able to produce the correct output -- not the case with latest versions. ''' 24 * Note that we need to include the project_id. 22 25 * [MW, LK] The tables in the database have duplicate entries for some CPSR2 data, showing the data files in the directory with pulsar name (eg. /pulsar/archive10/CPSR2/J2330-2005) and the symbolic links to those same files in the scrunched directory (eg. /pulsar/archive10/CPSR2/J2330-2005S). It would be good to get rid of these -- this will need to be done either by removing the symbolic links (can this be done in the scrunching scripts?) or tinkering with the find_archives.pl script to ignore the *S directories. 23 * [MW] Re-do the find_archives.pl script. It will need to be fixed so that it matches the new schema of table "obs", and then re-run. Will have to delete the "obs" table that is in the database currently, so that it puts everything in there the first time round. 24 * Note that we need to include the project_id. 25 * [MW, VM] Enable the www-data account to use `psrcat`. This will enable cone-searching based on a pulsar name, by extracting the pulsar position from the catalogue. 26 * Update 20071213 -- The files with *S directories have been removed from the updated tables in the database, so they won't appear in the query results. This is a temporary fix that won't apply when the find_archives.pl script is running again, so it needs to be able to avoid them. 27 * ~~ [MW, VM] Enable the www-data account to use `psrcat`.

Have not been able to check this yet. 29 32 * [MW, AK] Also enable checking of project IDs to enable/deny access accordingly. 30 * [MW] Make the names of the selectable parameters a bit more easy to understand (e.g. "Bandwidth" instead of "bw")31 33 * [MW] Register the conesearch with a VO registry (see notes on WebQuery). 32 * [MW, DM, GH] Fill in README page, as well as how-to notes on archive and any tool tips.33 34 * Make webpage live. 35 * [MW] Write up a guide to the archive & web pages, for use by future developers. 36 * There was a suggestion from the GW meeting (Dec 13) that the option of downloading scruched data be offered, perhaps with user-selectable parameters. This may be future work beyond the scope of the current project. 37 * ~~ [MW] Make the names of the selectable parameters a bit more easy to understand (e.g. "Bandwidth" instead of "bw") ~~ 38 * ~~ [MW, DM, GH] Fill in README page, as well as how-to notes on archive and any tool tips. ~~ 34 39 35 40 ----
