New Parts Tracker now online
#1
Today's the day!

The new Parts Tracker is online and active here:
https://library.ldraw.org/tracker

As with all new software launches, there will be issues and blips. Please be patient over the next few days as I work to clean up the dust and sand off the rough edges.

Additionally, the new !LICENSE line is now in effect. This should be managed by the software but note that it has changed.

Important:
- Bugs, improvement items, etc should be report on the GitHub project:
https://github.com/ldraw-org/ldraworg-library
- If you get a 500 error or a permission denied error please report the URL.

Note:
Redirects and other notices on the old PT will be implemented over the next few days.

Wrong link. Fixed above. I'll add a redirect now that the PT is active.

Redirects from old to new are being worked on. The problem is that the old PT is using cgi-bin with is causing a hitch in the redirect commands.

The part page say both 2.0 and 4.0, but the downloaded file say only 2.0.
Maybe since the file I uploaded only had 2.0 in the text.

https://library.ldraw.org/tracker/27496

Is it correct that the number in the url is totally different from the partnumber I just uploaded, s\24083s01.dat?

That's a bug. I thought I fixed this in the import script but apparently not. There is a routine to refresh and sync the file headers but do all the part at the same time bogs down the server so I'll wait until tonight to run it

Yes. The number is a unique id number that will (hopefully) remain the same over the life of the part (as opposed to filename which may not).

You can still access a part with /tracker/<folder>/<part name> or official/<folder>/<part name>. Example: https://library.ldraw.org/official/parts/3001.dat

I just wanted to point out that LDView's automatic download support for unofficial parts relies on being able to download raw parts and primitives from http://www.ldraw.org/library/unofficial/<folder>/<part name>. As far as I can tell, this still works, but given the new location of the library, I wanted to make sure that there were no plans to stop supporting the old URLs.

The new URLs for raw part download appear to be the same as the old, but with www on the front replaced with library. I haven't tried the old URL with a brand new part that has only been uploaded to the new tracker.

Two reflections after trying the new.

My hand moves the pointer to a positon on the page, only to find that the button is moved to a new position. Don't like that.

When having many pages/files open för a review, my eyes goes to the url looking for the partnumber. "What file is this?" and I can't see that when I'm at the bottom of the page, ready for a review.

Maybe I just need more time to adapt...

I understand your frustration. I tried to keep things as close as possible. I did, however, make some small changes with an eye on the future. There are some new paradigms to get used to.

 I am, however, always open to improvements and the new software allow me to make these changes with ease.

Thanks for that. Should I update LDView to use library.ldraw.org instead of www.ldraw.org? (Note: even if I do, there will likely be long term users of older versions of LDView. I already know that the Mac version of the next release will require a newer version of macOS due to Xcode dropping support for older versions. I could in theory do a separate build with an older Xcode, but that is more effort than I am willing to expend.)

You can if you want, the redirect will work too. Due to the nature of how the PT software operates it has to be on a subdomain or we'd have to move all the main site content into the library software structure. I really don't want to do the latter so the library will remain at library subdomain long term.

This is SO WON DER FUL. I just LOVE it.
Finally the PT arrives in the 2xxx years.
Thank you so, so much, Orion.
This is much overdue and really welcome.

I will collect my improvement suggestions here. Right now, they only are of minor nature.

(a)
The page https://library.ldraw.org/tracker/submit currently shows a "UNAUTHORIZED" error message when you are not logged in. I would prefer that it shows the standard "you need to be logged in to use this function" message and a link or auto redirect to the login page.

(b)
When submitting a CERT vote, currently the icon shown is always the same "2 green checkmarks" icon.
I would love to be able to distinguish whether a part has 1 or 1+ CERT votes. Thus, I would like to see a
"1 green checkmark" icon for the 1st CERT vote, and the current "2 green checkmarks" icon for later additional ones.

( c)
On the new User Dashboard (love it!) I would prefer if the "My Votes" list would be split up into 3 separate ones:
- a list of files where I voted HOLD
- another list of files where I voted NOVOTE
- another list of files where I voted CERT
Currently all 3 are in 1 list, and I need to sort by vote type first and then scroll down.
I would prefer 3 separate lists.

The software is supposed to redirect you if you somehow manage to reach a page that you don't have permissions for. It isn't working for some reason and I can't seem to figure out why. Since it was distracting me from other things I decided to let it lie and work on more core features.
That said, if you find a clickable link that leads you to an "UNAUTHORIZED" error message please let me know since the permissions should be setup so that you don't see those errors.

If only I could do that. That double check mark is just a stock icon and it's all or nothing for the coloring.

The dashboard is something I slapped together quickly in order to not lose the My Submits/My Votes functionality and to just "have something". There will be a more directed effort to improve it in the future.

In the works. One of the enhancements on the top of the list. 

And no, nothing on the old tracker is related to the new tracker. The old tracker status will remain forever frozen on 2023-01-31.

have a look at https://library.ldraw.org/tracker/29921

I uploaded the necessary tube prim with a wrong name. It took me a while to get the reason (a "0" too much)

In the old tracker the missing prim could be seen at first glance in the "required file" section with a () only.

Right now the page looks ok, like nothing is missing. Only when the 3D View is opened you see a box instead of the prim.
   
I will not upload the correct prim right now to leave this case as it is.

The missing parts are filtered from part lists by by default. I bypassed this filter for unofficial part parent/subpart tables and also made sure the missing part is highlighted.

Could you please explain how and why all the keywords are shuffled around after an upload?

I uploaded this:
0 !KEYWORDS Bricklink 24314pb01, set 71032, set 30356, set 30364
0 !KEYWORDS Wheelchair, Cargo tricycle, Camper trolley, Hot dog wagon
0 !KEYWORDS Popcorn wagon, Dragster, Airplane


It is shown like this:
0 !KEYWORDS Airplane, Dragster, Set 71032, Set 30364, Bricklink 24314pb01
0 !KEYWORDS set 30356, Wheelchair, Cargo tricycle, Camper trolley, Hot dog wagon
0 !KEYWORDS Popcorn wagon


and when I download it looks like this:
0 !KEYWORDS Bricklink 24314pb01, set 71032, set 30356, set 30364, Wheelchair
0 !KEYWORDS Cargo tricycle, Camper trolley, Hot dog wagon, Popcorn wagon
0 !KEYWORDS Dragster, Airplane

The header is generated from stored data. Don't expect any "custom" formatting in the header to survive. This makes it easier to change things and ensures that the header is prefect to the spec every time. Since keyword order doesn't matter there (supposed to be) put back in alphabetical order. 

That said, the header has been a thorn in my side for months now. I though I ironed out the last issue the day after launch but apparently not.

The PT using Font Awesome. What I meant was the "double check" icon cannot have color assign to each check independently. We could do two separate check marks but I was trying to declutter the activity page.

OK thanks for clarifying. And what about displaying "check" icon for the first certify vote and "check-double" for the second and additional certify votes. And then you already have a different color with the admin vote.

That's an idea but will require a significant rewrite of the icon logic. I'll keep it in mind when I get back to the activity page. 

Right now my focus is fixing the code dealing with the file header as that's going to hold up the 2023-01 release.

That may be the problem, but I'm not sure. When LDView attempts to download the following URL, it gets a 404 error:

http://www.ldraw.org/library/unofficial/...662s01.dat

If I paste the above URL into Chrome, I also get a 404 error. When I then look at the browser's address field, the URL has changed to this:

https://www.ldraw.org/index.php?page=lib...662s01.dat

Oddly, when debugging in LDView, I don't seem to get a redirect response from the original http URL, so I don't know where Chrome is getting this second URL.

The actual response that I get from the server is:

Code:
HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found\r\nDate: Sun, 05 Feb 2023 00:41:02 GMT\r\nServer: Apache\r\nUpgrade: h2\r\nConnection: Upgrade, close\r\nVary: User-Agent\r\nTransfer-Encoding: chunked\r\nContent-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8\r\n\r\ne7\r\n<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC \"-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN\">\r\n\t    <html><head>\r\n\t    <title>404 Not Found</title>\r\n\t    </head><body>\r\n\t    <h1>Not Found</h1>\r\n\t    <p>The requested URL was not found on this server.</p>\r\n\t    </body></html>\r\n0\r\n\r\n

If I instead fetch from library.ldraw.org, I do get the https redirect:

Code:
HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently\r\nServer: nginx/1.18.0 (Ubuntu)\r\nDate: Sun, 05 Feb 2023 00:54:35 GMT\r\nContent-Type: text/html\r\nContent-Length: 178\r\nConnection: close\r\nLocation: https://library.ldraw.org/library/unofficial/parts/s/100662s01.dat\r\n\r\n<html>\r\n<head><title>301 Moved Permanently</title></head>\r\n<body>\r\n<center><h1>301 Moved Permanently</h1></center>\r\n<hr><center>nginx/1.18.0 (Ubuntu)</center>\r\n</body>\r\n</html>\r\n
