That pretty should work fine and you would be live connected to the online instance from the platform client local setup!
[cecilia hinga, Ushahidi] And where we are on this.
:point_right: Streamline branches this way:
:point_right: Streamline branches this way:
- Merge v5-main to develop and close v5-main
- Delete master branch
- Duplicate develop to "main"
- Review PRs : if there are any on v5-main , rebase to develop . If they've got merge conflicts, add a tag saying is not mergeable.
- Make announcement / blog post: - new features, new endpoints, v3 API is still around, we've got a budding SDK,
[cecilia hinga, Ushahidi] Sorry, update on the wrong channel
Hi, @Angamanga I'd like to work on this issue ushahidi/platform#4129. It's 12 days now since I requested to work on this issue on Github but I have not received any reply yet.
[Anna Iosif, Ushahidi] @emmanuelhashy You can use the number followed by part of the name of the issue. For now, please use “v5-main” as the base-branch, we are doing some restructuring of the branches at the moment. I have replied in the issue, I suggest you start with this issue instead which is also handling tabbing but is a bit more specific: ushahidi/platform#4193
Hi everyone, hi @Angamanga @tuxpiper @cecelia @rowasc I have a suggestion concerning making testing pattern library on the client easier (this part of Contributing to ushahidi is very stressful)... Before I go to my suggestion, i want to say I'm sorry I've not been frequent on the platform as I used to. Ushahidi is actually on my mind. Though I don't contribute physically to the platform at the moment, i still try to help people find their way around the platform when they have issues contributing - this I do underground. This is how i was able to come up with the suggestion.
Now, Here it is. I did this experiment in my own css library project and it worked wonders. Instead of having to copy or install the pattern-library into the platform-client, the platform-client is copied into the pattern-library. More like the opposite, lol. Then the platform-client folder which is inside the pattern-library is added to the . gitignore file. This way, it doesn't get uploaded along with the pattern-library (since it's a large project & was already a git repo). With this, when the contributor runs the needed gulp command(s) to start the platform-client (the one inside the pattern-library), and make changes to the pattern-library styles it's really easy. And you may not need to be re-installing packages in the platform-client. Changes will automatically reflect immediately styles are changed. Once the contributor is satisfied, he/she can go to the main platform-client Installed on his/her computer and copy the changes made in there & re-install as usual to check, but only once - this looks better than going back & forth to copy & reinstall each time. The project I tried it on is a very small one at the moment but i worked. I feel it will be useful in such very large project. This is my suggestion. Thanks for patiently reading.
I forgot to add, push from the platform-client can even be done directly from the one inside of the pattern-library. The remote origin & upstream just have to be set to that of platform-client. Any of the options could work depending on what doesn't confuse the contributor.
Thank you @Angamanga 😊 and your amazing response as usual. I've documented this easy approach to testing library changes in the client in an article.
Here is the link to the article:
https://dev-obiagba.hashnode.dev/quick-effective-and-efficient-way-to-test-your-separately-hosted-css-library-on-your-client-during-development
I'm hoping that it will be of help as we try to implement it here at Ushahidi.
Hi guys, I just made a PR to the platform-client and here is what I get. I need some assistance on how to fix this error?
Hello
I'm wondering if it's possible, in Map or in Data pages, to have parameters in URL in order to filter the results page.
For example /views/data?title=mytitle to find posts with "mytitle" in their title. And for other parameters.
or /views/data?status=published&datefrom=2020-0101 for other filters.

[Anna Iosif, Ushahidi] @bcarime_gitlab Unfortunately that is not possible. You can work with “saved searches” if you want to share searches with others, find more about it here: https://docs.ushahidi.com/ushahidi-platform-user-manual/7.-analysing-data-on-your-deployment/7.1-saved-searches

Hi there! I just noticed that the API posts endpoint has some new limitations. I found they were introduced by ushahidi/platform@30ff907 . Is there any way in the Settings UI to increase those limits? (Specifically API_POST_LIST_ADMIN_MAX_LIMIT)
I have ushahidi's platform-client properly setup on my local machine. So far, all the features are working perfectly on my machine and I am set for more contributions.
[cecilia hinga, Ushahidi] Hi Emmanuel, that is great. Go ahead and look for good issues that you would like to work on here https://github.com/ushahidi/platform/discussions/4213
Thanks @sameroom-bot, I have made a request to fix this Issue ushahidi/platform#4231 but I am yet to get feedback from @Angamanga
Hi everyone! I am Heena Singh, an Outreachy Applicant from India. I am currently in my pre final year pursuing bachelors in computer science. I am keen to contribute towards Ushahidi for “Improve performance on the Ushahidi Platform Client” project. Following the setup guidelines for platform-client, I have set up platform-client using BACKEND_URL as “https://wsc2019.api.ushahidi.io/” in .env file.
Following are my queries:
- Do I need to set up the platform API repository too onto my local system for contributing for this project or I can continue with only the client repository?
- As I can see in the above screenshot shared by @emmanuelhashy it has a “setting” tab which is not available in my setup. Is it something to do with the API url used?
- What credentials do I use to login into the client system?
- Also can you direct me to where I can start my contributions from?
Thank you for your time!
[Anna Iosif, Ushahidi] @evanessa234 Welcome! The url “https://wsc2019.api.ushahidi.io/” is used in the documentation is used for demo only. Either you set up your own api or create a deployment of your own here: https://ushahidi.io/create and use that api. However I suggest you try setting up the API first by yourself, its a good experience going through the docs and try it for yourself :)
