I don't know how I got here, what is all of this?

If you don't know what the EYP (European Youth Parliament) is, read through our Wikipedia Article or visit our website.

Every time the people who are part of this organisation gather for a large event, a part of this event is called the GA. It stands for General Assembly and it's exactly that. During the GA the participants will discuss different topics in various manners. We designed statistics to keep track of all of this data and make it nice and easy to collect and display it.

statistics's Issues

accessing a debate page of a session, which has not set the active debate, generates an internal server error

[28/Dec/2016 02:03:23] "GET /api/session/16/vote/15/?_=1482886977789 HTTP/1.1" 200 328
Internal Server Error: /api/active_debate/16/
Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "/Users/tom/GitHub/statistics/statistics/views/apis.py", line 93, in active_debate_api
    active_committee = Committee.objects.filter(session=session).filter(committee_name=active_debate.active_debate)[0]
  File "/Users/tom/GitHub/statistics/lib/python2.7/site-packages/django/db/models/query.py", line 297, in __getitem__
    return list(qs)[0]
IndexError: list index out of range

if there are no sessions, show a link on front-page to /create_session/

remove accents / diacritics from usernames

some users may have problems logging in if the username contains characters that are not on their keyboard by default

Create a "How it works" video

Make the docker version production ready

users for sessions should only be created if the session was created successfully

Pagination: Add information about total number of pages and current page

use variables in scss

add possibility to display announcements on front-page

Add possibility for topic overviews link

after GA has started, encourage admins to link to their resolution booklet

Add map of Europe to front-page

It should highlight the places which are active at the moment

when using running order, all input forms result in an error if the active debate has not been saved at least once

1. Create Running Order Session
2. Create Committees
3. Try to open the submit form of a commitee

Git Reports Issue

Submitter: gitreports.com test issue
This is a test issue submitted via gitreports.com

Indicate the user's name in the account tab while they are logged in

add header image to the management overview for a nicer welcome feeling

add password reset

add a notification to the "Submit [content type]" views informing the user the active round / debate has changed

create session form sometimes won't create a session

I suspect it has something to do with the picture author link, which, if copied directly from Flickr is often longer than 200 characters which exceeds the maximum length for this field

the way the active sessions are fetched in the home view is very inefficient

Git Reports Issue

Submitter: Oliver Stenbom
I think that you should fix things! All the time!

some views return an internal server error instead of a 404

All views should use proper exception handling if the resource a user tries to access does not exist.

remove internal database ids from the URLs to avoid potential exploits

add documentation about the docker desktop image

add links to good examples of sessions of each statistics type to the documentation

Committee creation and editing form

• Adding subtopics results in an additional empty subtopic
• The "Committee Topic" textbox has a large area in which a click will not actually set the textbox to be in focus. Above and below this area clicking will set focus to the textbox. That is quite unintuitive, as there is no logical reason for the textbox to "stop in the middle". I've marked the areas which you can click with green and the unresponsive area in red.
  
• The edit and delete buttons of the committee list are different depending on whether they are added via js or via django rendering the page. In this example, the upper two committees were added through js, the remainder has been there before the page load ("django made this"). Please excuse the unrealistic values for the test. I assume the fix could be updating the js which adds these to match the new style.

"[Session]'s GA is happening right now" should disappear one hour after the last point has been added

Clarify when "[Session]'s GA hasn't started yet" label disappears

At the moment, some think that as long as this label is there, they can't use GA Statistics, which can lead to frustration. It should be explained when this label disappears.

Encoding error in session creation form

https://sentry.io/tom-wolfskampf/ga-statistics/issues/255986806/

UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xe1' in position 60: ordinal not in range(128)
(15 additional frame(s) were not displayed)
...
  File "statistics/views/public_views.py", line 269, in create_session
    session.save()

UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xe1' in position 60: ordinal not in range(128)

Add pull to refresh on submission pages

https://github.com/BoxFactura/pulltorefresh.js

add export functionality for the topics in our database

dockerize GA Statistics

voting summary on session page is broken after latest PR merge

"[Committee] is being debated right now" should disappear one hour after last point

create session form does not have proper form validation

Allow gender statistics to be turned off from the session's settings page

Currently, it can't be turned off

Add a picture credit field

This will highlight, that it is important to not use copyrighted material and also allows Creative Commons photos to be credited

if there are no committees in a session and user is authorised, link to the committee add view

The link to the committee add view should be placed on the session's main page. The management overview already has a link to the create section.

track when errors occur

implement get_or_404 instead of simple get methods to avoid internal server errors

https://sentry.io/tom-wolfskampf/ga-statistics/issues/249990598/

DoesNotExist: Session matching query does not exist.
(2 additional frame(s) were not displayed)
...
  File "statistics/views/public_views.py", line 119, in session
    session = Session.objects.get(pk=session_id)

DoesNotExist: Session matching query does not exist.

automatically load further sessions if the user scrolls down on the home page

create a mobile app focussed on easy point submission

send newly created session's users an e-mail

It should contain information on how to get started, what their usernames are, where to reset the password

Update Django Version to 1.10

Clarify which kind of pictures should be used for sessions

Facebook headers and logos do not look very pretty when used as pictures for the sessions. Instead, photos without text and ideally photos of the city the session will be in should be used.

This is an example of an ideal composition:

Integrate the new documentation

Test Heroku database migration with Topics sheet

the minutes per point metric is flawed

Add searchable session listing page

add documentation about the docker arm / Raspberry Pi image
