2012-04-10 21:36 <coeps> good evening, I don't understand the reason for the "fieltype" function. Can someone explain the advantage or usecase? Or is there a docu about that?
2012-04-10 22:52 <cedk> sharoonthomas: if you want I have more time now to discuss the web client
2012-04-10 22:52 <sharoonthomas> cedk: sure
2012-04-10 22:53 <sharoonthomas> cedk: to start off from our previous discussions, the web client will have similar functionality as that of GTK client.
2012-04-10 22:54 <sharoonthomas> cedk: Q1: The client is planned to be a pure JS application, correct ?
2012-04-10 22:54 <cedk> sharoonthomas: yes
2012-04-10 22:54 <cedk> sharoonthomas: to try to get similar performence
2012-04-10 22:54 <sharoonthomas> cedk: Q2: Have you finalized that proteus.js on jquery will be the framework to power the web client ?
2012-04-10 22:55 <cedk> sharoonthomas: yes
2012-04-10 22:56 <cedk> sharoonthomas: I did not yet review it but according to bechamel, it is quite close to be feature full
2012-04-10 22:56 <sharoonthomas> cedk: Q3: What is the plan for deploying the web application ? this is important considering the Same origin policy of browsers
2012-04-10 22:57 <cedk> sharoonthomas: from the trytond server
2012-04-10 22:58 <cedk> sharoonthomas: but could be done via a reverse-proxy server or what ever
2012-04-10 22:59 <sharoonthomas> cedk: i am not sure that works with gunicorn (which is now going to be the std way to deploy trytond)
2012-04-10 22:59 <cedk> sharoonthomas: I don't understand
2012-04-10 23:00 <cedk> sharoonthomas: as far as you get js and jsonrpc on the same hostname/port
2012-04-10 23:00 <sharoonthomas> cedk: the best i can think of is that the web client gets served from something like http[s]://<tryton_server_host>:<tryton_server_port>/path
2012-04-10 23:01 <sharoonthomas> cedk: and i think there is already some code in the RPC dispatchers which handle requests which start with sao/ in a special way
2012-04-10 23:01 <cedk> sharoonthomas: yes
2012-04-10 23:01 <cedk> sharoonthomas: but that's details
2012-04-10 23:02 <sharoonthomas> cedk: have you thought how this could impact large scale deployments, meaning multi server deployments ?
2012-04-10 23:02 <cedk> sharoonthomas: doesn't change anything
2012-04-10 23:03 <sharoonthomas> cedk: thats assuring :)
2012-04-10 23:03 <cedk> sharoonthomas: and in anyway, I don't see who will need such "webscale" installation
2012-04-10 23:04 <sharoonthomas> cedk: I saw the email estimating that it would take 80 man days, has anybody come forward with any commitments to pay up ?
2012-04-10 23:06 <sharoonthomas> cedk: reg "web scale" requirement you never know ;)… but i guess its better to support horizontal scaling from start of design
2012-04-10 23:07 <cedk> sharoonthomas: somes but nobody (except pheller for 150€) gives amount
2012-04-10 23:08 <sharoonthomas> cedk: from our end we would like to commit resources (including myself) rather than monetary contribution. Is that something that you are looking for ?
2012-04-10 23:10 <cedk> sharoonthomas: for us, it is difficult to count on this for the quote
2012-04-10 23:10 <cedk> sharoonthomas: but of course, reviewers and contributors will be welcome
2012-04-10 23:10 <sharoonthomas> cedk: that was my next question, what is the minimum number of days paid for that will be needed to start work ?
2012-04-10 23:13 <cedk> sharoonthomas: I think we need full otherwise nobody will be happy with an half client
2012-04-10 23:17 <sharoonthomas> cedk: makes sense, but not sure if such a large amount can be raised
2012-04-10 23:21 <cedk> sharoonthomas: B2CK will not spend more on this topic for many reasons
2012-04-10 23:21 <cedk> 1- it is boring
2012-04-10 23:21 <cedk> 2- it is not a real need
