Open Bugs and Usability Testing:

We would like to welcome volunteers to report bugs on the Sahana Haiti Portal. Before a new version of the portal is released it is submitted to User Acceptance Testing (UAT) at the test portal: http://haiti-test.sahanafoundation.org. Bugs are reported on this Trac system http://trac.sahanapy.org/report and we track coverage at the TestCases page. See Bug Reporting Guidelines for more information.

Key Links for Testers:

Instances:

Prod: http://haiti.sahanafoundation.org <- For Live Data
UAT: http://haiti-test.sahanafoundation.org <- For dummy data for writing documentation & doing system testing (which could be destructive)
Dev: http://haiti-dev.sahanafoundation.org <- For previewing new, unreleased, functionality & testing upgrade processes

Progression of code will normally be from Dev -> UAT -> Prod

Code:

Note: As of January 2012, BZR/Launchpad info for eden is deprecated. Please visit the GitHub page. Thanks.
For developers that wish to assist Sahana, we have a number of different coding options to help out. You don't need to have all these skills, any of them will be of use. Even if you have none of these, jump into #sahana and we may be able to find some way for you to help out based upon your skillset.

Python - all the core coding is undertaken in Python
web2py - this is the application framework that we use in Python for SahanaPy
OpenLayers - this is the client javascript library we use for mapping in the browser
jQuery - additional view tweaks are done using this powerful yet simple JavaScript library
XSLT/XPath - a lot of import/export functionality is created using XSLT templates written using XPath. For more info see XsltTemplates

See this page for guidelines on setting up a local SahanaPy instance:

If you are getting a "Invalid Request" error when you try to run the application, try renaming the folder to "haiti" (no hyphen) and retrying: http://127.0.0.1:8000/haiti
