GSoC 2023: Flamenco Improvements

GSoC Week 5 Report

Accomplishments

Wow, it’s already been 5 weeks and we’re half way through! This week was mostly about bug fixing and version upgrading. There was an animation convention this week, so it was definitely a busier time for my mentor! Thankfully, he was still able to help me solve a majority of problems. Some things I accomplished this week:

  • Issue fixing for pull request: Worker Tags for clustering #104204
  • Updating of programming libraries

Struggles / Blockers

  • I had to learn the hard way that downloading libraries through the Ubuntu machine terminal is not always reliable. A great deal of Flamenco’s code was not working because of my outdated libraries. If I would have known this in the beginning, I wouldn’t have spent time trying to figure out errors and why certain errors kept showing up despite no solutions being found. I’m glad it was a simple fix!
