Please report broken links to me.


[[User:Brian Wilson|Brian Wilson]] 08:56, 12 July 2007 (MDT)
I keep tips and project notes here on wiki.wildsong.biz for my own use, but try to write as if I actually have an audience. If you find anything here useful or want more details feel free to contact me.


I keep notes in this wiki but my github projects have extensive notes in them, too.


I am using this site to track various interests and projects,
My GIS related stuff including mapping, ol-react, and dockers is usually in [https://github.com/Wildsong the Wildsong repo].
but if you want to, you are free to add content and comment on anything
My non-GIS things and quick ideas I am testing end up in [https://github.com/brian32768 the brian32768 repo].
you see here. To make comments, use the "Discuss this page" link at the bottom of each page.

I recently started keeping a "develop" branch on my git repos so that the main branch (in theory) always has functioning code now
and develop always is under development.


== LINUX ==
In NPM, ol-react is released at @map46/ol-react


Ubuntu on Toshiba Magnia SG20 -- [[Otter]]
ArcGIS Online: They (ESRI) make me have two accounts, one for my general account and one for my personal/home/ArcGIS Pro account.
I really wish they did not do this.


== Radio ==
*My organizational account [https://wildsong.maps.arcgis.com/ wildsong] gets 50 credits a month. I need to do banners for these sites. :-)
*My personal account [https://map46.maps.arcgis.com/ map46] gets 100 credits.


Jan 11 2007 - Lots of snow here last night! I am walking to work.
==Recent changes==
I will carry my new radio. [[The Radio Page]]


== No more paper ==
=== 2024 - ===
2024-10 I am working on a CANBUS project right now.


Jan 2007 -- New Year's resolution time --
=== 2023 ===
'''2023-12-25''' [[Murre]] is now running Linux Mint


I just decided I am really tired of filing all the bits of paper that collect in piles around here every year around 'tax time'. Also, I don't want to own a file cabinet anymore. It's heavy and bulky. Continued in [[No more paper]]
'''2023-06''' Setting up [[Rotary encoder]] on an MCU


==Maps!==
'''2023-01''' Last month I had a "wellness" check at '''Columbia Memorial Hospital''' and they did nothing but a blood test then they billed me $1000. They did the same thing with my spouse. I was never able to resolve this. My health insurance should have covered this, it did two previous visits.

Coastal Oregon:
2022-01 It's all about IoT and [[Home control]] these days. And ham radio also. And always bicycles. And [[Svelte]] and maybe [[Jamstack]]?
I've been preparing maps for my personal use on trips to [[Coastal Oregon]].
5 maps here so far.


Sonoma county:
2021-03 setting up "Esri Web App Builder, Developer Edition" ([[WABDE]]) in Docker.
[http://www.wildsong.biz/static/CDS-Wireless CDS Wireless Network] I plan on putting these static maps into Mapserver any day now...


=== Cartography ===
2020-08-10 I am building an [[Elevation surface]] for Clatsop county including contours, hillshades, shaded relief.

2020-01-03 In spite of the fact [[Vastra]] is dead, I am working on [[Presence Detection]], now in the context of IoT.


==GIS==
=== 2019 ===
 
2019-11-01 [[Asterisk]] on Bellman is broken so I am shutting it down and switching to a [[Twilio]] TwiML set up.
We almost never used it once [[Vastra]] ended. I sold my snazzy Grandstream phones on eBay.
 
2019-09 Things I am looking at / using for the web maps (besides React + OpenLayers): parceljs, codesplitting, jsts, [[Solr]], Redux, redux-first-router, GeoServer+PostGIS vs ArcGIS Server+MSSQL - ArcGIS in the daytime and GeoServer by night!
 
2019-07 I started experimenting with [[OpenLayers]] 6 which is in beta (and [[JavaScript]]).
Keeping my OpenLayers and JavaScript in Github, see experiments at https://github.com/brian32768/ and released things at https://github.com/Wildsong/

I am currently using the stable [[Special:Version|version]] of [http://www.mediawiki.org/ Mediawiki] which is the software used for the [http://wikipedia.org Wikipedia]. At [http://home.wildsong.biz/ home] I am running the development [http://www.mediawiki.org/index.php?Special:Version/ version] downloaded from [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/CVS CVS].
 
Reasons I like Mediawiki: It is easy to install. It is easy to customize.
It is easy to learn. It is very well supported and has a large user community.
 
Update. I have been using Mediawiki for over a year now. I have deployed it at work, at home, at my ISP, and for pedalwiki.ihpva.org and solarcreek,org. I like it. I use it for site management, and I document all my work in wikis now. No more lost scraps of paper or random txt files scattered all over creation.
 
But there are things it does not do well, so I am back looking at Drupal now for ihpva.org main page.
 
==== Mediawiki extensions ====
 
There are maps in the [http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extensions Wikipedia], so I should really look at the [http://meta.wikimedia.org wikimedia extensions] for GIS and maps first.
 
[[Gallery2]] is an image gallery that has been integrated successfully with both Drupal and Mediawiki, which makes it potentially very useful to me.
 
=== Drupal ===
 
For a while I was convinced Drupal was the best CMS so I started writing this [[Beginner's guide for Drupal]]. I stopped working on it when I quit using [http://www.drupal.org Drupal]. (Which was almost immediately...) I am leaving the page here because I might revisit it at any moment.
(and that moment is NOW. [[User:Brian Wilson|Brian Wilson]] 07:03, 13 March 2006 (PST))
 
=== Other ===
 
I might revisit [http://www.zope.org Zope] and [http://plone.org Plone]
instead. The only reason I am interested in plone right now is because of plonemap. The plonemap server seems to be down right now so I can't even research it. (29-Nov-2005) Later for this...

Overview

I keep tips and project notes here on wiki.wildsong.biz for my own use, but try to write as if I actually have an audience. If you find anything here useful or want more details feel free to contact me.

I keep notes in this wiki but my github projects have extensive notes in them, too.

My GIS related stuff including mapping, ol-react, and dockers is usually in the Wildsong repo. My non-GIS things and quick ideas I am testing end up in the brian32768 repo.

I recently started keeping a "develop" branch on my git repos so that the main branch (in theory) always has functioning code now and develop always is under development.

In NPM, ol-react is released at @map46/ol-react

ArcGIS Online: They (ESRI) make me have two accounts, one for my general account and one for my personal/home/ArcGIS Pro account. I really wish they did not do this.

  • My organizational account wildsong gets 50 credits a month. I need to do banners for these sites. :-)
  • My personal account map46 gets 100 credits.
