Tuesday June 28
Yesterday: Login form & function working
Roadblocks Encountered: Was sending ctx.status instead of ctx.json, server decided it didn't like how Postman formats JSON's
Today: Requisition view/creation forms, stretch goal of functionality for those forms
Roadblocks Expected: large size of RequisitionRequest object making things cumbersome
Wednesday June 29
Yesterday: Working on getting RequisitionRequests from the backend to the browser
Roadblocks Encountered: RequisitionDAO refuses to run, returning errors whenever called, not just when it operates.
Today: Fix whatever that mess is caused by, figure out display methods for RequisitionRequests
Roadblocks Expected: Apparently, DAO goblins
Thursday June 30
Yesterday: Completed form for Requisition viewing, completed GET requests to populate it with data from database
Roadblocks Encountered: RequisitionDAO wasn't initialized, causing aforementioned goblins; HTML datetime-local takes inputs in a different format than it outputs from what I could tell and so I had to find a workaround
Today: The viewing form is also an editing form, so take new data from there and pass it along to the database
Roadblocks Expected: HTML being snippy, input validation
Friday July 1
Yesterday: Got the backend for request input done
Roadblocks Encountered: Data transfer between JS and Java refused to work
Today: Get data transfer fixed, do backend for modifying requests
Roadblocks Expected: Disrupted sleep, split focus working on portfolio creation
Week 3
Monday July 4
Yesterday: Sought help from trainer about transfer error
Roadblocks Encountered: Transfer error unfixable in given time, forced to change the browser used from Firefox to Chrome
Today: Adjust datetime input to work with Chrome, request modification frontend & backend, "view all" page for requests, CSS styling, unit tests, logging, Powerpoint about the project
Roadblocks Expected: None in particular
Tuesday July 5
Final Results: Logging and test automation unfinished, CSS styling is sparse, and no attachments can be added. All other goals accomplished.
