Display the current time in timeseries plot when animating

[aashish24]

• Currently the plot is static, and we would like to show the current time as some sort of marker on the plot
• It would be great if we can click on the plot to jump to a particular time.
• the code needs to be cleaned a bit

@aashish24 Where is the code?

[aashish24]

The code is checked in the repo. https://github.com/OpenGeoscience/geoweb/blob/master/web/apps/archive/timeseriesPlot.js

[cjh1]

OK, I didn't realize it was in master already.

So how do I bring up the timeseries plot in the UI?

[cjh1]

OK, so it looks like double click is supposed to do it, but I'm getting an error calling cdms ,,,

[cjh1]

I am seeing the following in the server log: ... import cdms2 File "/home/cjh/work/source/VisTrails/vistrails/core/packagemanager.py", line 255, in _import_override return self._orig_import(name, globals, locals, fromlist, level) ImportError: No module named cdms2

Any clue why cdms2 might be missing?

[aashish24]

It may have not build. Can you try command line calls? Also, make sure you are sourcing the uvcdat script.

[cjh1]

UVCDAT is now a dependency? I was pointing to this VisTrails git@github.com:OpenGeoscience/VisTrails.git

[aashish24]

Its been for long time because of CDMS2 (in fact you used it via Dave's uvcdat repo for climatepipes). CDMS2 is part of CDAT.

[cjh1]

I what I am saying it there is no UVCDAT_DIR that you configure?

[aashish24]

I guess not. We can add that but it won't do much good. We depend on UV-CDAT for its environment. We can ask users to set it and if set use its setup environment script I guess.

[cjh1]

OK, can you point me to the exact repo and branch I should use? If I use uvcdat master things fail when authenticated, no idea why, but must be something in the python path that mess things up.

[aashish24]

you need to use paraview 4_1 branch

[cjh1]

Thats the one causing the authentication issues as we end up the UVCDAT's version of MyProxyLogin. I guess we need to update setup-runtime.sh, I will take a look at it.
