Hi Hasini, Your description on the GSoC project and breaking down into sprint is extremely useful [1], thank you for serving as a good role model for other projects. Its a good reminder for students to “commit early and commit often”, this is the best way to get contributions into main releases. A counter example of big commits towards end of summer generally rest in peace in sandbox area. Before we merge your pull request [2], we need to discuss some logistics on how to proceed.
Hi All, Aligning with the API Security effort, Airavata needs to make progress on user management as a whole. Currently we have some very minimal user information and kept deferring the proper integration [3],[4],[5]. With proper integration with Identity server we can fix this us. We have also been deferring the Airavata data model into all Airavata components from a while, we need to work on it to make progress towards 1.0 release (I will start a separate discussion on these timelines). How about we master into a new branch for 0.16 and then have the following changes: * break the API and use thrift multi-plexing so its manageable. * add appropriate authorization to API * propose any API and data model changes and properly integrate it within all the components * Have Dimuthu and Supun integrate GridChem client and make necessary user model changes. Comments?
