Hey Jesse! Really interested in this project, do you know if there's been much progress?

jessebeach commented 11 years ago

No progress so far Sina. I'll try to get a simple Backbone framework running for Saturday so we can build from it. I'll need someone with experience working on back end technologies. I feel comfortable working on the front-end stuff.

sinak commented 11 years ago

I'm definitely not a backend person either, though I wonder how much of it is possible through javascript. I'm going to try and throw together the basics of my petition -> legislator constituent project today, we'll see how it goes!

jessebeach commented 11 years ago

I'm not sure how we'd do the AJAXy stuff to get data without running in cross site domain restrictions unless we had a server component to do the requests for us.

Check out kanarinka.brownbag.me/petitionmap/index.html# (Source is on Github) - they seem to be able to do it successfully, no?

The WtP API is CORS compliant, which you can do entirely client side. Other APIs are always a crap shoot whether or not they send the right header. I can help out with a backend if need be; I'm fastest in node.js and PHP (in that order) and am happy to lend a hand if that's tech you guys don't mind working with.

I'm not super solid on design, but I can whip up angularjs client side apps like its my day job (because it is :) )

Hey all. @douglasback and I have gotten some initial work done here, including basic JS infrastructure, hosting the SQL dump on Amazon RDS as a basis for signature analytics with some syncing capability for signatures, as well as some basic D3 charts for chloropleth and bar charts. It's a bit messy, but would love to powwow tomorrow about combining forces.

douglasback commented 11 years ago

For anyone interested, the existing repo is at https://github.com/douglasback/wtp-dashboard/

@yahelc, @jessebeach, and I are groups at one of the tables here — let us know if you're interested in helping out and we'll get you up to speed!

Hey guys, I think some of the entity extraction and sentiment analysis work from We the Entities might fit really well into the dashboard. Here are some links to get you started. I'm happy to help out:

http://wetheentities.herokuapp.com/ http://wetheentities.herokuapp.com/api

Example full HTML view: http://wetheentities.herokuapp.com/petitions/51942b9b2f2c888e2f00000c

Example full JSON view: http://wetheentities.herokuapp.com/petitions/51942b9b2f2c888e2f00000c.json

Minimal example for extracting Countries and mapping them: http://wetheentities.herokuapp.com/examples/geo

And, of course, my source: https://github.com/yoni/wetheentities

Please stop by if you need any help! I'll open a ticket on your repo, as well.

Cheers, Yoni
