Week 3 06.02.14 - 06.08.14

Week 3 Goals

• Resolve DistanceTest failure
• Discuss plan for projections / handling spherical distance calculations
• Begin porting core Spatial functionality into Neo4j

Will's progress

• Resolved failing DistanceTest issue and added additional unit tests
  • This was fixed by figured out how to properly mock objects using Mockito, in this case mocking the getProperty() function on Node objects. For example this function returns a mocked Node that mock the getProperty() function for properties x and y:

  private def mockedNodeWithXY(id: Long, x: Double, y: Double): Node = {
    val node = mock[Node]
    Mockito.when(node.getProperty("x").asInstanceOf[Double]).thenReturn(x)
    Mockito.when(node.getProperty("y").asInstanceOf[Double]).thenReturn(y)
    node
  }
  

• Refactored Distance function for better code reuse and more explicit use of pattern matching
• Finalized remaining GSoC weekly schedule with goals
• Discussion and plan for porting core Spatial functionality into Neo4j for Spatial Cypher access
