A

Okay, yeah really oh yeah. Welcome to the regulatory energy cause coffee sauce I mean today we have only two people on the call me and ginger come so this. It will be a really quick session.

A

Agenda like this for the next meeting we should it was.

A

B

Yeah there was one release: 123.

B

Would you like to do.

A

B

So so certain plugins that took most was mostly Scripps National Mall t90 export base. Basically, if there's a string that has a backslash in in it, you know we exported multi line, which makes it look a lot nicer and it's a lot easier to maintain.

A

B

B

So that was a really nice addition. There was a bug with the export viewer. We had to copy the whole content previously now you can just select parts of its out there's some very minor CSS effects.

A

B

The other one is floating point values we're being exported as in and giving weird yeah more conversion done to it.

B

Now we properly support floating-point numbers I think it was coming up. There's like bang bang, something something, but it wasn't exporting very nice at all. Before.

A

A

B

That's and I think we have a couple of small changes pending release.

B

Start about iterator to convert any exports, its number of exception in system log, when exploring JSON schema and unittest failure on Windows. Only.

A

B

Just takes so long, it makes it nice the build on the PR. Take up hours to hop to even I've came back in the morning after creating a poor equation still had a not run before.

A

Yes I'll. Basically, we have wishes with Windows bills when Jenkins Curie dope is Ryan, because so Jenkins code rebuild consumes a lot of Windows execution time and we barely making our clock EPA provisioning final thing is called rebuilds to the stuff Windows, not even slower than Linux and Linux yeah.

B

Yeah, so that's why we don't use Windows is because they can take a very long time for poor quick bill to go through.

A

Yeah I'm, the only one who uses yeah.

B

I think just uses wellness as well.

A

Okay, then, it explains why he takes the yes.

B

A

When I discover the pool request, I was working on exactly the same piece. Yeah.

B

Mad when she does the same thing but I don't think he runs the test locally, except when he's releasing.

A

Yes, I would so anyway, be careful, some it's stitched for big salaries, and we have one changed from a bid a pending about our pointer exceptions for empty collections, but yet miss it's not ready to go so far.

B

Yeah, it's pretty close just a couple of questions. Alright,.

A

So basically, what it does is if.

A

Requires at least and if we see that the field is mandatory somehow when we should create an empty collection which could be a good improvement for someone for pieces, but yeah, it's don't need to change it. Yeah.

A

That's it so yeah. There is a bunch of stalled over requests, but this one is just not quality up. Welcome to one yep I think good, oh no, yeah yeah! So the garden can go activities.

B

I'm currently, looking at the big configuration, SP I.

A

B

Know configure it API mm-hmm yeah, just looking at the work that was done previously on us and trying to figure out an API. It's not it's, not the nicest, because it assumes input streams getting passed quite far down to Yemen reader.

B

I've got something that kind of works, but a lot quite happy with it at the moment. But sorry, it's not the is not as on the API plugin. It's the API for configuration sources.

B

To it so to allow now plugins to support is three sources and as your sources and whatever sources, they want ya.

A

Got to do slidin above it, because I was about to his proposal in.

B

His project rehearsal, you face ya, know.

A

I have these slogans I.

B

Don't think he's looking at the beacon the configuration API I think he's just looking at the.

B

The IDE integration and he wanted to take a look at something else beforehand: I think the dry run.

A

Away all these so yeah, basically my disability, if he wants to support three. Ladies, quite a project on its own, but yeah, yeah, I, think if you have sliding on this yeah, we discussed that.

A

A

Yeah reach funding to the genitals board. I have a good feeling approval. So basically we have everything come please. My plan is to follow up in the community. Sorry in the development increased once I get final information from the board, but yeah it looks like everything is set for this project, so we can.

B

A

With something almost heroes to start with officially, but it's basically up to you Joseph and then.

B

Okay sounds great I.

A

A

Any other I'm going on your side.

B

No I'm just trying to get the build mode to plug into not export a lot of extra properties. In the view, it's a three line change, but the build tool. The it's build tool is quite outdated, so I was trying to fix that up.

A

On my site, I'm working on some changes but yeah they're in the prototypes, they will become public and maybe one month. So so I came through this too much about them right now, yeah I'm trying to do something so the garden wishes we go to quite a few, but the plug-in compatibility vast amount just being if force- and this is a bishop we were discussing before the call about the expeditious leading pointed exception- yeah.

B

Maybe it's something we can do around that, because what one credential type that doesn't support JK's can stop all the being exported. I. Think.

A

B

This is probably the idea of us credentials, though, if you scroll down, it's got all the types that he has configured.

A

Yeah we wanted to improve it.

A

The past, because ya was working on export issues for a while, and now it's really difficult to diagnose with them. Sometimes.

A

So, regarding AWS credentials, yeah, basically it's surprising that they don't work because well, I taste, this plugin and it works on my machine. There is some edge keys.

B

Yeah all the rest of the look like very standard plugins.

A

B

Well, who say they have.

A

B

Shown always clogging versions.

A

A

So you maybe it's something to watch him: the template, because yep like a new version. Probably it's about gigas plugin, yeah,.

B

A

So looks like we're getting some progress and yeah I guess we do release eventually. Okay,.

B

You hidden if I miss you as I. Am it's showing two draft versions? I think it helps got a bug at the moment.

A

So it shows two versions, so you may see that tracks are different and you're. Probably it was caused by me because I have changed right and yes.

A

Yep, so basically what I need here is this thing. Five days ago, I changed the name, template good and it since name template is not ever written. It looks like it to this report and yeah, it's quite odd, because so because it I will be using my not much fashion there. Yes, we use two-digit version, mostly in Jenkins core engine, scorin plugins. Basically, what you've got here a bit you get. Two versions is exactly the same number is.

B

It is it because the configurations changed we haven't released, it will probably be fixed on the next one. It.

A

Should be yeah.

B

Is there a way to discard a draft, I didn't even know you could have multiple drafts? Yeah I can't go too late. We should be fine. Now yeah.

A

B

A

Wish it if you are visible in public, because basically there is nothing to write here. Yeah.

B

Immediate change, local, pending changes.

A

Because I'm working on that it is dropped at for Jenkins code yeah. It looks like there is no way.

A

B

There's a github community feedback forum, I think we, you can seem feature a quiz like that. Yeah.

A

Whatever and we can swipe yeah.

B

A

Still waiting for my boot access to functions.

B

The other thing was there was a few issues on dear I. Just had a look before no huge there's, not a huge number I called off quite a few of the ones that have been fixed already.

A

Because yeah, what is that? Everything needs to be before Sonya yeah.

B

A

Jenna and then not sure how much time she has for that.

B

Yeah I don't think she has time to monitor so.

A

We have quite a few issues: a basic truck has kind ability ones try to keep up to date because it can put sausage balls, but yeah wasn't really tracking the twig in ones no.

B

I was a looking at a little.

A

Yeah, that one is something I noticed a while ago.

A

I think that's fine. The most of the traffic goes through github anyway, yeah.

B

A

If we discover something we can just tweak or fix of neutralization yeah yeah, my personal preference is towards using JIRA but yeah. We basically use github issues.

A

So I'll just fix one because I definitely missed this one.

A

Okay, we'll figure out it later, but this is a common my case well pretty much the same as github issues that people create such requests for the authority has plugin and basically we don't want to work on any new integrations inside the plug-in ideas. Yeah.

B

A

Chic says yes for sure, like the recent, a get fix for property for extension resolution, but they are not any integrations, yeah, okay, anything else to discuss today, no.

B

A

Okay, so if so well, I think we can just close the meeting can get some time or something.

A

Okay, yeah thanks a lot for a time please, okay, hopefully in September, when vacations and Inc is both. However, you will have.

A

Seen two weeks, my entire.
