Notes
Blacklight 6 Impending Release
- J. Coyne, Chris Beer, and others have working on Blacklight (BL) 6 for a long time
- Several prereleases are already out
- Now, the community is about to release final product
- An invitation to review outstanding Pull Requests has been issued
- The Gems needed to support BL 6 are in the process of being updated
- The exception lies with Hydra Collections
- Version 6 for hydra-collections (which supports the PCDM) was already released
- A new version of hydra-collections would be a minor version (pretty big changes would still be involved, and hence would be serve as a "substantial minor version")
- How precisely are these PR's best reviewed?
- Visual code review
- Ensure that all tests are passing
- Ensure that the code base is documented as needed
- Is this to be integrated with Sufia 7?
- Yes. J. Coyne is currently preparing to work with CurationConcerns in integrating Blacklight 6
- Once this has been finished, integration with Sufia 7 hopefully shouldn't require many changes
- Major Change for Setting Search Filters
- For BL 5 versions, search filters could be set at the Controller or Filters themselves
- For BL 6, this has been restricted to the Filter alone
- Shall the merging of these pull requests update the version of hydra-head to 10 or 9.10?
- This shall likely be 10, forcing one to upgrade
- It should be clarified that Sufia 7 release has not yet been released
- Hence, support for Blacklight 6 (and, thus, hydra-head 10) will likely be featured in the initial Sufia 7 release
