GSoC’17 Coding period | Week #5 | Drupal





The second phase of the Coding Phase officially kicked off the previous week on June 30th, 16:00, marking the conclusion of the First Evaluation period for Google Summer of Code 2017. On the personal front, I would like to state that I progressed successfully through the evaluations by completing the two designated ports for my project ‘Porting UC Wish list to Drupal 8’, under the able guidance of my mentor, Naveen Valecha. I have also maintained a detailed info for the work done as part of the first phase evaluations in a previous blogpost.

The previous week, based on the mentor’s review of the earlier ports done, I had also fixed the coding standards and made some changes to the code, as suggested by him. Meanwhile, based on a comprehensive analysis for the above mentioned ports, the work done briefly the earlier week can be stated as:

'View wishlist' option visuals in D8:



'Email wishlist' option visuals:



As of now, I’ve completed a significant portion of porting the the first functionality, i.e., ‘Viewing/Updating user wish list’. However, I would have to integrate the ‘Update’ functionality to modify any specific wish list, so that on accessing the ‘Wish list’ link the user wish list is displayed with the added products along with the ‘Update’ option as mentioned above. Also, the complete code for the current status of the project can be found here.

Winding up, these were the objectives and concepts learned during the third week of coding phase in GSoC’17. Hope to learn many more new concepts in the coming weeks for the successful completion of the port.

Cheers!

GSoC’17 Coding period | Week #1 | Drupal

The Coding phase of Google Summer of Code 2017 kicked off the previous week on May 30th, 16:00 UTC, marking the conclusion of the one-month long Community Bonding period. As stated earlier in my previous post , the Community Bonding term proffered the selected students an opportunity to build a rapport with their community, helping them in interacting with the respective mentors and fellow developers. Presently, I am working on porting the UC Wish list module to Drupal 8, under the guidance of Naveen Valecha , which would specifically allow customers to create and administer personalized wish lists of products in their Ubercart store, thereby enabling potential customers to get a better understanding by referring to those wishlists. During the community bonding phase, I had been asked to create a Plan issue for tracking the status of the port and sub-issues of the project goals, by my mentor. As per the implementation, for the first phase/month of the coding pe...

GSoC’17 Coding period | Week #11 | Uc wishlist

  Another week has reached its aftermath and the third phase of the coding regime is about to conclude with the onset of the Final Evaluations for Google Summer of Code 2017. The time spent so far during the previous months have been a great learning experience with Drupal, with the timely help provided for the project by my mentor Naveen Valecha . Coming to the present scenario, the majority of the port concerning the Uc Wishlist has been completed, save for some technical fixes and implementation requirements regarding the port of the final sub-module ‘Add user wish list settings’. Other than that, I would put up the alpha release of the module as soon as the current code gets reviewed. Additionally, I would propose few functional tests as per instructions from the mentor and reviews from the developers. Moreover, my code for the previous ports have been committed to the Drupal Core by my mentor and the current status of the code could be found here ....

The fourth week of Google Summer of Code 2017 has come to a close, bringing forth the onset of the First Evaluation Period. The conceptualization developed during the first phase of coding have been of immense help and has provided notable assistance for the completion of the assigned ports.

Also for the ‘ Add to Wishlist ’ functionality to work successfully, my next objective would be to add the functionality to view/access the user wish list, on using the button. This functionality would further be succeeded by the option to update the specific wish list, by displaying the required button ...
