## Hackpact 2
The Padliography is a tool to keep track pad documents. It archives them in a dedicated page in the PZI wiki, through the joined efforts of the MediaWiki API and a Flask app on the Soupboat.
It's as a piece of software made to be offered.
At the moment, even though the project is working, its form is still not ready for the public. It lacks for entry points, and while it has a README.md file, it's not really generous and doesn't cover the basic info that it should document.
The plan is to make it useful for and usable by others:
- Dynamic wiki page
- Init wiki page
- Documentation on how to install an instance of the Padliography
- Generous readme
### 1st Oct
- Went to the market and bought so much vegetabels that I couldn't lift the ikea bag anymore. Happy with it
- Worked with Supi on the current state of the Workbook to prepare for the M&Ms session of monday.
- Doubts on the backend of the Workbook.
### 2nd Oct
- Looked into the text editor _vim_ and its tutorial `vimtutor`. It's a nice hands-on approach to documentation.
- Read a tutorial for setting up _Flask_ and _sqlite3_. Really a different experience from the _vim_'s one. Much more top-down.
- Branched the Workbook to implement a database system. The original prototype was based on yaml files and nested folders and after a while it was really a convoluted mess. Fractal and funny and ridiculus at some point, for sure painful everytime we had to add some new feature. Even though databases have this ancient technology aura we tried it out and it's way better.
- Maintenability it's critical when a project is meant to be shared.
### 3rd Oct
- Worked with Supi on the Workbook and presented a demo for the M&Ms session of 3rd Oct. Showcasing a demo it's the best way to understand what is clear and what's not in a project. It also offers different perspectives and alternative entry points.
- Follow-up with Gr and Supi about borders ecology, how a tool defines a community, who's inside and who's outside this community and which forms have the border of this community, where are the entry points, etc.
### 4th Oct
Refactor of the Padliography to simplify and comment the code.
