Working on MongoDB... Maybe save this for the longer hack-a-thon?

Got MongoDB set up locally. Waiting for Rackspace to get back to me with their ObjectRocket offer.

That is awesome, Linda! I would love a demo when we both have a free minute. I've been spending all my free time wrangling the MMF data, but I am going to sign up for the app challenge today!

Is there anything that is a little more basic that I could work on?

lindawsol commented 10 years ago

Check out the Wiki! Ashley created a roadmap with our future/tentative features.

adasilva commented 10 years ago

@andrayantelo - do you want to have a go at some of the user interface work? Check out the wiki, and feel free to add to the discussion if you have ideas. I can think of at least 1 button we need for the database work, and we still want to add links to resources for the user. Both these ideas are on the wiki. Make sure you open a new branch for whichever one you decide to work on first.

andrayantelo commented 10 years ago

Okay cool. Will check out the wiki. Thanks!

FYI - I signed up for ObjectRocket account -- I used the email freckle79@hotmail.com, username freckle79. If this is a problem, I can re-register with my gmail account.

What does the collection look like (or plan to look like)? I've been playing around with a local database, starting to write a function we'll need to look up plants. What are the keys in the collection items? (e.g. {"Name": "tomato", "size":"Large"})

adasilva commented 10 years ago

Also: check out the wiki page for the basics of pymongo as well as how to set up a local database so you can play around with it. Please edit the wiki if you have something to add, or submit a new issue if something in the wiki isn't clear enough! (I'm new to mongodb as well, so this is what I learned over the past few days.)

Tentative Deadline: Friday, September 5th.

adasilva commented 10 years ago

I got it connected. Potentially stupid question - the "connection string" is public info, right?

adasilva commented 9 years ago

Done, and merged into master.
