Developer Portal Migration to Drupal 8 | Ian Lessing (Unlicensed) | Motes: Drupal 8 Migration Notes Links:
Waiting to settle the setup with Pantheon. Emailed Shea for an update. On holding pattern until we hear from Shea. Denise is out most of October. Shea scheduled a meeting with the Pantheon reps for . Ian will attend if he can. Notes: Pantheon Hosting Support Meeting 2019-10-10 2019-10-18 Ian met with Pantheon's Matt Paladino yesterday and discussed options for our Drupal 8 developer portal and hosting with Pantheon. Matt and Ian discussed various options to setup the site and maintain it over time. The bad news is we can not have ALL these flow into our developer portal at the click up a few buttons in our Pantheon dashboard. So... of those three:
Q: Which is the most important to have updates deployed via the pantheon dashboard? For community modules.... For UCSB Public affairs theme & distro Note: If we had money to throw at the problem we could purchase a higher tier of service from Pantheon called "Mangaged updates". With this service Pantheon would also manage and deploy updates to Drupal community modules for us.
Diana and Ian met with Cara Kalnow and Matt Paladino from Pantheon to understand what we get for the 6K. They admitted that we just get the hosting which we already pay for through the UCSB contract. If we want Pantheon to take care of the updates for us, we need to commit our website in their Github repo, and they will take care of all updates. They will ask us to test it and a verbal confirmation to proceed. This is a "white glove" service and is 9K/year. Diana and Ian didn't think that we get much from this service as the Apigee modules don't change that often, and we will still have to build the site ourselves. Denise and Ian will start to work on the site. | |||||||

Student Developed Applications |
All screen scraping is gone now! Next meeting with the student is on Met today. 2 new students joined the team. Developing a planning tool. Still an issue with the API performance. Steven suggested to start working with them to setup alerts on system status as the app is seeing quite a bit of usage. Need to schedule next meeting | ||||||||
Account Cleanup |
Database that collects weekly statistics was moved to a SIST dev server. Will move it to AWS when we get an account, possibly using Lambda functions. For now, the code (powershell) will be put in Github Apigee team. | ||||||||

Private Department Courses Extract API Retirement | Steven Maglio | The Registrar's Office has completed enough APIs that it's possible to replace the functionality of the private Department Courses Extract API with The Registrar's Office is currently working on a Student Gender Pronoun project which will probably affect the private Department Courses Extract API and the Student Basic Student Info API. That project is set to wrap up in mid-September (before students return). Since there will be communication with API customers of the update to the APIs, it might be best to start the conversation about deprecating the private Department Courses Extract API after the completion of the Gender Pronoun project. This would give us 2 months to think about what's the best way to communicate a deprecation.
we will need to create an extended Curriculums endpoint that includes the instructor employee id. Diana will schedule a meeting with Gaucho Space and Reg team to discuss necessary changes. Reg IS team will be adding pronouns to the student API. And will prioritize the curriculum improvements. Meeting with Gaucho Space scheduled for Nov 5th performance issue that Diane Soini brought up. every night around 2 am the app pool recycles and the system calls the APIs. We are adding his call to the public APIs to make sure Gaucho Space is not the first one that calls them. |
