Week #8: Code Cleanup, Finishing up open PRs, Continuing work on Tree2D

This week I had to work on the open PRs specifically work on the bugs that were pointed out in last week’s meeting. Along side the bugs I had to continue the work on Tree2D UI element. Below is the detailed description of what I worked on this week:

Week #7: Finalizing the stalling PRs, finishing up Tree2D UI.

This week I had limited tasks to do, mostly tasks related to existing PRs. Other than some minor fixes I had to implement some more things in Tree2D which included some minor UI fixes, some changes in tutorial, adding tests. Below is the detailed description of what I worked on this week:

Week #6: Bug fixes, Working on Tree2D UI

This week I had relatively few tasks and most of them were to fix some bugs/design flaws that were discussed in last week’s meeting. Other than that, I had to implement a few things in the Tree2D UI element that will be discussed in detail below. I also had to update some existing PRs in order to make things work well. Below are the list of things I worked on this week:

Network layout algorithms using IPC

Hi all. In the past weeks, I’ve been focusing on developing Helios; the network visualization library for FURY. I improved the visual aspects of the network rendering as well as implemented the most relevant network layout methods.

Weekly Check-In #5

Before the 8c670c2 commit, for some versions of MacOs the streaming system was falling in a silent bug. I’ve spent a lot of time researching to found a cause for this. Fortunately, I could found the cause and the solution. This troublesome MacOs was falling in a silent bug because the SharedMemory Object was creating a memory resource with at least 4086 bytes indepedent if I’ve requested less than that. If we look into the MultiDimensionalBuffer Object (stream/tools.py) before the 8c670c2 commit we can see that Object has max_size parameter which needs to be updated if the SharedMemory was created with a “wrong” size.

Week #5: Rebasing all PRs w.r.t the UI restructuring, Tree2D, Bug Fixes

The UI restructuring was finally merged this week. This means UI is now a submodule in itself and provides different UI elements based on their types which are, core, elements, containers and some helper methods/classes. So, this week my main tasks were to rebase and fix merge conflicts of my open PR’s. Other than that, I had to continue my work on Tree2D UI element and finish the remaining aspects of it. Also, I had to create an example demonstrating how to use the newly added UI element. Many use cases were discussed in the open meeting like, an image gallery which displays preview image on the title and when expanded reveals the full scale image. I am thinking of adding multiple examples for the Tree2D to brainstorm on its certain features. Also, I had this annoying bug in Panel2D which didn’t allow it to be resized from the bottom right corner. It was resizing from the top right corner. I had to address this bug as well. Below are the tasks in detail:

Week #4: Adding Tree UI to the UI module

This week I had very few tasks to do, almost all of them revolved around UI elements and adding stuff to the UI module. Earlier, it was pointed out that due to some design issues, importing certain modules into others caused circular imports which led to importing the specific modules inside a class/method which is not the best approach. This will be resolved as soon as the PR that fixes this issue is reviewed/merged in the codebase. In the meantime, all the PR’s related to UI will be on hold, which is why this I had few tasks this week. The tasks are described below in detail:

Week #3: Adapting GridLayout to work with UI

This week my tasks revolved around layout and UI elements. The primary goal for this week was to adapt the GridLayout to work with different UI elements. Currently, GridLayout just supports vtk actors and not UI elements, my task was to modify the class to support UI elements. The other tasks for this week are described below in detail:

Week #2: Feature additions in UI and IO modules

This week I had to work on 3 PRs as well as some documentation. I really enjoyed this week’s work as the tasks were really interesting. The aim for these PRs were to actually add a couple of features in the UI as well as the IO module, which includes, adding support for border in Panel2D, adding support for network/URL images in load_image method in IO module, adding resizing Panel2D from bottom right corner, completing the document with layout solutions provided by Unity/Unreal engine. Below are the PRs that I worked on:

Welcome to my GSoC Blog!

Hi all! I’m Sajag Swami, a sophomore at Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee. This summer, I will be working on adding a new functionality to FURY which shall enable users to visualise various types of proteins via different representations like Richardson aka Ribbon diagrams and molecular surface diagrams. As a part of my stretch goals, I’ll try to expand protein diagrams via other representations including:

Weekly Check-In #1

Hi everyone! My name is Bruno Messias currently I’m a Ph.D student at USP/Brazil. In this summer I’ll develop new tools and features for FURY-GL. Specifically, I’ll focus into developing a system for collaborative visualization of large network layouts using FURY and VTK.

Week #1: Welcome to my weekly Blogs!

Hi everyone! I am Antriksh Misri. I am a Pre-Final year student at MIT Pune. This summer, I will be working on Layout Management under FURY’s UI module as my primary goal. This includes addition of different classes under Layout Management to provide different layouts/arrangements in which the UI elements can be arranged. As my stretch goals, I will be working on a couple of UI components for FURY’s UI module. These 2D and 3D components will be sci-fi like as seen in the movie “Guardians of The Galaxy”. My objective for the stretch goals would be to develop these UI components with their respective test and tutorials such that it adds on to the UI module of FURY and doesn’t hinder existing functionalities/performance.

Part of the Journey is the end unless its Open Source!

Hello and welcome to my final weekly check-in. Today officially marks the end of the coding period for GSoC 2020. I enjoyed every bit of it. This was a life-changing experience for me and now I observe and interpret everything from a different perspective altogether. I have grown into a better developer and a person since GSoC. I would like to thank all my mentors and especially Serge for his immense support and mentorship. I would love to contribute to fury even after GSoC is over but unfortunately my semester break is over so I wont be as active as I was during the summer.
