FYIs/Discussions

Recurring items:

Meeting Notes

Incubator:

  • Core compute and network resources deployed
  • certificates provisioned
  • Remains:
    • Troubleshooting load balancer
    • Cognito still needs to be worked on, module the ops team set up has never been used and needs to be tweaked
    • Check in with Ops 10/9 validate/merge
    • Have Product/anyone help with testing after merge
    • Leave both instances running for a week or two after validation, then meet with Bonnie to turn off HUU AWS
    • once we are migrated we should create test users to be added to 1Password for anyone to test without login (use plus sign to create variants)
      • (make sure plus sign is not bugged)
  • Risk:
    • Person who originally set up incubator no longer with H4LA, some risk that Ops team makes changes that we will have to adapt to.

FastAPI migration:

  • Close to done on FastAPI migration/controller updates
  • would need to connect to google account AND Cognito in order to fully test some changes (invite flow branch)
  • Paul expecting to check off most of Convert/Port Flask code to FastAPI #789 by Tuesday
  • once we are done, convert this comment to a wiki
  • Google auth endpoints can only be worked on after incubator migration is complete

Feature Work:

  • Erik created prototype for Intake Profile menu

First post-migration work:

  • fix up Intake Profile endpoints

Goal for October: complete milestones 6.0.1, 6.0.2

In November we can work out time for Product/Dev collab for Paul's design work.

FYIs/Discussions

Recurring items:

Meeting Notes

  • Erik working on making front end components composable/resusable across Guest/Host

Incubator Migration

  • everything should be deployed
  • create a ticket: need to add API keys to AWS for google authentication, which we will do through a h4la google dev account
    • Might need to add things like TOS/privacy during the set up process, although might not be required for dev environment
  • create a ticket: need to generate a build in order for site to be functional, running in to some errors on automated tests that John is working on (Erik to try to help as well)
  • need a way for all devs to push builds without having to go to Tyler (github action for anyone to press a button to deploy to dev environment) (would then create a more restricted way to promote from dev to prod) (currently tyler can push because he has access to the devops repo which he won't have in the future)

FastAPI Migration

Next Steps/Order:

  • Fix the tests
  • merge Paul's PR
  • setup google auth api keys
  • generate a build for Tyler to manually deploy to qa.homeunite.us
  • later we will switch qa to point to dev
