# Marauder's map

Marauder's map helps students see where other students are on Olin's campus.

This is the start of an attempt to modernize **The Marauder's Map @ Olin**, 
an application written between 2008 and 2010 by Andrew Barry and Ben Fischer.
It used wxPython, PHP, and MySQL.

This repository is for *client* development. For server development, see 
[https://github.com/ohack/maraudersmap-server/](Marauder's Map Server Repository).

The original client used wxPython. We are attempting to improve it and port it to QT using pyside.

In addressing some of the issues of the previous version of *Marauder's Map @ Olin*, we will strive for the following:

### Maintainability

* Code will be legibile and compliant with [PEP8](http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/)
and commented (using the [Sphinx .rst markup syntax](http://sphinx.pocoo.org/))
* Code will have tests to document its status 
(using the [Python unittesting framework](http://docs.python.org/library/unittest.html))
* The project will be documented in a way such that it can be extended, replicated,
and/or restarted relatively easily

### Educational value:

* Standards and standard libraries will be leveraged where available, i.e. JSON for communication general good practices
* The project will be open and involve as many students as possible; perhaps it can be leveraged in future applications?

## Branches
* **master** -- This is where you are now and where releases are to be found.
* **development** -- This is where active development is happening. Stuff here generally works, but is in flux.
* **playground** -- This is where we try out crazy new ideas, don't follow standards, and write unstable code.
* **gh-pages** -- This is the documentation branch. Never edit files in this branch manually; use 
                  ``make html`` in ``docs`` to generate updated documentation.

## Documentation
[HTML docs](http://ohack.github.com/maraudersmap-client/)
