Notes 

Draft notes in Google-Doc

• Topic next week “open forum for fielding questions and discussion -- welcome to new community members” with Ralph facilitating and other committers available

• NYT React/GraphQL podcast link -- worth a listen https://softwareengineeringdaily.com/2018/10/22/react-and-graphql-at-the-nytimes/

• Don’s CU Experts faceted search demo

• Facetview2 integration at Deep Carbon, CU Boulder and UNAVCO

• Stefan at RPI found Facetview2 from Cottage Labs (UK boutique consultants)

• Integrated into Deep Carbon site for people, pubs, etc

• Benjamin also used their code for UNAVCO and helped Nate get it running at CU Boulder

• Don modified RPI code to use the SPARQL Query API instead of Fuseki

• VIVO as source of data pushed into Elasticsearch index. Originally coded to query Fuseki, and now works against VIVO SPARQL Query API

• Python script that pulls from VIVO triples to create Elasticsearch documents

• 87k docs from VIVO into ES: process takes 30 minutes

• Motivations for Elasticsearch upgrade… RPI and Cottage Labs code was on an old 1.x version of ES which is now at 6.x

• Uploaded ES 6.x updated facetedsearch and facetview code to VIVO Community

• Chris Haines: what’s the system reqs/resources for the ingest? Don: our dev VM is a 4 vCPU with 10GB RAM and works fine

• Chris and Laura from EPA looking at faceted browse/search

• Integration into VIVO user experience on GitHub under facetedsearch/html/

• Could be improved -- maybe use GitHub Issues to track room for improvement?

• Benjamin: “UNAVCO's people browse page template: https://github.com/NCAR/2014-EarthCube-BuildingBlocks-EnablingCollaboration-14402930-vivo-source/blob/develop/unavco-installer/webapp/src/main/webapp/themes/unavco-bootstrapped-vivo/templates/people-elasticsearch.ftl
”

• Another example that’s more modular -- includes the VIVO FTL for header, footer, etc

• Don: we put our facet .FTL files in CU’s 3rd tier -- described in the repo README

• Andrew: do you imagine migrating more functionality into this read-only view

• We arrived there borrowing RPI functionality

• Don: quick sidebar on integrating wikidata (concept map) and ES (+1 from Huda) -- also one querying UNAVCO’s ES for CU Boulder ORCIDs

• Andrew: knows some Cottage Labs folks in another context -- might be interesting to follow up with them to see if they have other work of interest to VIVO community

• Andrew: follow up in future on how this fits in with Product Evolution

• Benjamin: completing ES integration in VIVO which would support incremental updates of ES instead of requiring a “side car” that extracts from triple store to push into ES -- Chris: that would be the ideal integration option

• Sprint in March -- opportunity to finish up the ES/Solr work from previous sprint, externalizing triple store, and separating components out into Docker containers

• Andrew: take a look at Agenda item #6 (6a and 6b)
