MEILI Travel Diary

The MEILI Travel Diary is the web application module for the MEILI System, which allows users to attach travel diary semantics to their data collected via the MEILI Mobility Collector. The MEILI Travel Diary has the following functionality:

Allows users to annotate their trajectories into trips and triplegs by specifying:
- For trips:
  - trip start
  - trip end
  - trip destination
  - trip purpose
- For triplegs:
  - tripleg start
  - tripleg end
  - tripleg transfer point
  - travel mode
Basic CRUD operations
Provides an API for interacting with the MEILI Database

Version

Tech

The MEILI Database is built on top of NodeJS and ExpressJS and uses multiple third party libraries.

Installation

First, set up your database (see the MEILI Database docs).

Then go to the root folder of MEILI Travel Diary and start the Express app

$ cd /path/to/folder
$ npm start

Alternatively, you can setup your scripts and build operations in your IDE of choice.

Test

Client integration tests

Mocha test run with Phanthomjs

Make sure database is running with test data, preferably run the docker container
Start the development server
npm run test-client

for running tests without console logging run SILENT=true npm run test-client

Development

Want to contribute? Great! See the Todos list for needed improvements. Also, you can contact me on github or my email address for further details.

Todos

Write unit tests
Figure out a smart way to do the localization
AngularJS is used in a very hacky way, that should change
Secure the password field when communicating to the MEILI Database
Responsive design
Remove / improve the in-memory storage of the trips that are being annotated to maintain consistency with the remote database
Look into licensing of images and clipart

Building the API docs

$ npm install apidoc -g
$ cd MEILI-Travel-Diary/
$ apidoc -i routes/apiv2/ -o apiDocs/
