Code Week #5

Weekly Report (15th June to 21st June) -

---

Aim - Implement the spatial relationship functions for the module.

Things, I have done this week

• Added new content type with geometric field in WKT(Well Known Text) format.
• Worked on Views configuration UI.
• Customized the format (content / field) in Views.
• Configured and tested the different criteria under filter and sort of Views.
• Understood the different terminology of Views interface which are as follow
  • Display
  • Filter
  • Content versus Fields
  • Pager
  • Contextual filters
  • Exposed filters

Mentor Suggestions

• Most of spatial relationship operations required a second geometry B. Right now the PostGIS field only supports geometry B from contextual filters in Views.
• We need to implement a simple WKT field in the PostGIS configuration mask for a manual geometry B input as an alternative to the contextual filter.

Things to do next week

• Understand the Form API and query functions customization in Views.
• Mid Term Evaluations.
• Test and implement the relational functions.

Reference Modules/Files -

• Views terminology - http://www.drupalgardens.com/documentation/views/terminology
• Contextual filters - https://www.drupal.org/node/1578558

Am I blocked on anything ?

No. But I think, we need to implement functionality to take inputs for Geometry B via Forms.
