Get data using bbox and populate popup data for opensense layer

[crisner]

Hi, this is a first-timers-only issue. This means we've worked to make it more legible to folks who either haven't contributed to our codebase before, or even folks who haven't contributed to open source before.

If that's you, we're interested in helping you take the first step and can answer questions and help you out as you do. Note that we're especially interested in contributions from people from groups underrepresented in free and open source software!

We know that the process of creating a pull request is the biggest barrier for new contributors. This issue is for you 💝

If you have contributed before, consider leaving this one for someone new, and looking through our general help wanted issues. Thanks!

🤔 What you will need to know.

Nothing. This issue is meant to welcome you to Open Source :) We are happy to walk you through the process.

📋 Step by Step

• [ ] 🙋 Claim this issue: Comment below. If someone else has claimed it, ask if they've opened a pull request already and if they're stuck -- maybe you can help them solve a problem or move it along!

• [ ] 📝 Update the file layercode.js in the leaflet-environmental-layers repository.

See this page for some help in taking your first steps!

Step 1:

Remove these lines: https://github.com/publiclab/leaflet-environmental-layers/blob/84da2d162eeeb0662be3c1e3de4c01a38086bf50/src/layercode.js#L37-L65 https://github.com/publiclab/leaflet-environmental-layers/blob/84da2d162eeeb0662be3c1e3de4c01a38086bf50/src/layercode.js#L374-L382 https://github.com/publiclab/leaflet-environmental-layers/blob/84da2d162eeeb0662be3c1e3de4c01a38086bf50/src/layercode.js#L550

Step 2:

Change this: https://github.com/publiclab/leaflet-environmental-layers/blob/84da2d162eeeb0662be3c1e3de4c01a38086bf50/src/layercode.js#L21-L23 to:

this._map = map;
if (this.layer !== 'opensense') {
  this.requestData();
 } else if (this.layer === 'opensense' && this._map && map.getZoom() > 5) {
  this.requestData();
}
map.on('moveend', function() {
   if (this._map && ((this.layer === 'opensense' && this._map.getZoom() > 5) || this.layer !== 'opensense')) {
      this.requestData();
    }
}, this);

Step 3:

Change this: https://github.com/publiclab/leaflet-environmental-layers/blob/84da2d162eeeb0662be3c1e3de4c01a38086bf50/src/layercode.js#L97-L99 to

if (self.layer === 'opensense' && self._map.getZoom() > 5) {
    var bounds = self._map.getBounds();
    Layer_URL = 'https://api.opensensemap.org/boxes?full=true&bbox='+bounds._southWest.lng+','+bounds._southWest.lat+','+bounds._northEast.lng+','+bounds._northEast.lat;
 }

Step 4:

Insert this:

if (self.layer == 'opensense') {
    self.parseData(data);
}

above this line: https://github.com/publiclab/leaflet-environmental-layers/blob/84da2d162eeeb0662be3c1e3de4c01a38086bf50/src/layercode.js#L115

Step 5:

Change this: https://github.com/publiclab/leaflet-environmental-layers/blob/84da2d162eeeb0662be3c1e3de4c01a38086bf50/src/layercode.js#L285 to: var content = this.generatePopup(data);

and change this: https://github.com/publiclab/leaflet-environmental-layers/blob/84da2d162eeeb0662be3c1e3de4c01a38086bf50/src/layercode.js#L289 to: return marker.bindPopup(content);

Step 6:

Add these lines:

if (this.layer == 'opensense') {
    var popUpContent = '';
    var noMeasurements = true;
    if (item.name && item.grouptag) {
          popUpContent += '<h4>' + item.name + ',' + item.grouptag + '</h4>';
    }  else if (item.name) {
          popUpContent += '<h4>' + item.name + '</h4>';
    }

   if (item.currentLocation.coordinates) {
          popUpContent += '<span><strong>Latitude:</strong> ' + item.currentLocation.coordinates[1] + '</span><br>' + '<span><strong>Longitude:</strong> ' + item.currentLocation.coordinates[0] + '</span><br>';
   }

  for (var i in item.sensors) {
      if (item.sensors[i].lastMeasurement) {
            noMeasurements = false;
            popUpContent += '<span><b>' + item.sensors[i].title + ': </b>' +
              item.sensors[i].lastMeasurement.value +
              item.sensors[i].unit + '</span><br>';
       }
  }

  if (noMeasurements) {
     popUpContent += '<span><b>No measurements available</span><br>';
  }

  if (item.lastMeasurementAt) {
      popUpContent += '<br><small>Measured at <i>' + item.lastMeasurementAt + '</i>';
  } else if (item.updatedAt) {
      popUpContent += '<br><small>Updated at <i>' + item.updatedAt + '</i>';
  }
  return popUpContent;
}

right after line 332 in the generatePopup method: https://github.com/publiclab/leaflet-environmental-layers/blob/84da2d162eeeb0662be3c1e3de4c01a38086bf50/src/layercode.js#L332

Step 7:

Add the following:

if (this.layer == 'opensense') {
   var marker = this.getMarker(data);
   var key;
   if (marker != null) {
      key = data._id; // ID
      if (!this._layers[key]) {
            this._layers[key] = marker;
            this.addLayer(marker);
      }
   }
}

right after line 353: https://github.com/publiclab/leaflet-environmental-layers/blob/84da2d162eeeb0662be3c1e3de4c01a38086bf50/src/layercode.js#L353

Step 8:

Change this: https://github.com/publiclab/leaflet-environmental-layers/blob/84da2d162eeeb0662be3c1e3de4c01a38086bf50/src/layercode.js#L419 to: if (this.layer == 'luftdaten') {

and add this:

if (this.layer == 'opensense') {
    for (var i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
          this.addMarker(data[i]);
    }
}

after line 423: https://github.com/publiclab/leaflet-environmental-layers/blob/84da2d162eeeb0662be3c1e3de4c01a38086bf50/src/layercode.js#L423

[neelesh17]

Can I try this issue?

[crisner]

Thank you @neelesh17! If you have completed a couple of FTO's would you like to try out issues tagged with help-wanted instead?

[neelesh17]

Okay, Thanks for the advice @crisner .

[robin-natale]

Hey @crisner can I give it a try on this issue too?

[crisner]

Sure, go ahead! :smile: As suggested in your previous PR, remember to make your changes in a new branch. Thanks!

[robin-natale]

Hey @crisner i think I tried with a new branch now and then merging this with your master branch. Was it better this way? I welcome any feedback in case of any mistakes 👍

[crisner]

@robin-natale, go through the step-by-step procedure in this link https://codeburst.io/a-step-by-step-guide-to-making-your-first-github-contribution-5302260a2940. This will give you an idea of how an open-source contribution should be made. Here's another link: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-create-a-pull-request-on-github

One thing to always remember, you should never alter or merge unapproved changes into a master branch. Reading the above article should clear up some confusion. Do reach out if you have any questions. 😄 You could also use the gitter chat room to ask for help.

[robin-natale]

Many thanks @crisner I will have a look through this documentation and hopefully next time will be fine 👍😄 Did those changes went through at the end or shall I delete everything I have committed so far?

[crisner]

You may have to open new PRs from clean branches. You got the changes right though. 😃 Just make sure to do the same on a new branch created from a clean master branch and make the PR from that new branch. :)

[robin-natale]

@crisner I think this time went all well with pulling request from separate branches, would you agree? 👍LEt me know if there are any feedback!! Also would you mind inviting me again to the Publiclab project? For some reason the last invitation I received is not working.
