NOAA Ready: How to enter more column fields? & Can only enter data in Classic mode and see it in Spreadsheet Mode #55

Closed wendy144 closed 5 years ago

wendy144 commented 6 years ago

secret2017.txt I. I am using an existing NOAA WDS-Paleo Template to exercise the NOAA Ready (Beta) secret2017.txt (attached)

II. I select "NOAA Ready (Beta)" I responded to the majority of fields in Root, NOAA, Funding, Publication, and Geography which contain an I responded to all fields which contain a '*'

III. PROBLEM In section PaleoData, I am able to load in my 4 columns (in TSV) - but only if I do so in "Parse Mode: Classic" Then after I "Parse", I can only see the values if I change the mode to "Parse Mode: Spreadsheet (Beta) I can see my data.

For each Column I can set Standard fields Variable Name (WDS SHORT-NAME) Units (WDS UNITS) Description (WDS WHAT) Additional fields dataFormat (WDS C or N) dataType (WDS paleolimnology

IV. QUESTION/PROBLEM: I am unable to enter information for the other six WDS-Paleo measurement parameters:
material, error, seasonality, detail, method, additional information Under Add Fields when I click "Add" nothing happens

I then save my work as a LiPD, and when I re-open it, the appropriate files are there: 6 files in LiPD metadata.jsonld bag-info.txt bagit.txt manifest-md5.txt tagmanifest-md5.txt paleo0measurement0.csv and seem to have the correct contents

III. I tested adding the column data from the text files. I was able to copy/paste the data normally in spreadsheet mode. If you paste the data and don't see all the columns, press the "Refresh" button below the spreadsheet table and it will update the view and show all the columns.

I should also note that spreadsheet mode does not work in all web browsers. It doesn't work and Safari, and does work in Chrome.

IV. This was a bug. It is now fixed. You can enter a variable in the "Enter Field Name" field and then click "Add"

It's been a month with no further info. Closing the issue.
