The VIVO Scholar demo is live at http https://vivo-scholars-scholars.cloud.duke.edu/. The site is public and live but development is ongoing. We'll deploy new features at the end of every three-week sprint.
Get in touch on the #vivo-scholar Slack channel.
April 2020
4/23: In Sprint 17, from 3/30 to 4/17, we planned to finalize a number of search features. But we learned that they were trickier than we anticipated. Sprint 17 included the following tasks:
- Cleanup of search features, part 1 (we haven't finished yet)
- Substantial progress on responsiveness/the mobile UI
- Sprint 19 added and beta release date planned for June 1
Watch the short demo video here.
March 2020
3/26: Sprint 16 ends with the following additions:
- Search page, Funding tab
- Pages for individual grants, publications, and keywords
- Pageable facets
- Date slider + year resolution facet filters
Big note: final styling is still not complete.
February 2020
2/28: Sprint 14 ended on February 14, and Sprint 15 ran through early March with these updates (watch the video):
- Search mockups and a functional spec
- Search page, People tab, including facets for types, departments, and schools (research areas will go away)
- Search page, Publications tab and facets for type, date (will be a slider), author, and publisher
Big note: final styling is in progress (it will look different soon).
January 2020
1/29: We wrapped up Sprint 13 with these updates:
- Added grants data to Research & Expertise
- Added the Teaching & Mentoring tab, with courses data and Teaching Overview data (here's a sample profile)
- Road-tested the web components by asking the new Duke development intern, Kristi Turner, to make the above changes. Kristi is a fairly-new programmer with some web knowledge but had no problem making changes.
- Simplified the GraphQL endpoint. Try the endpoint with these sample GraphQL queries.
- Watch our short demo video.
1/8: The VIVO Scholar Town Hall meeting happened today (watch the video here) and we gave updates for Sprint 12:
- Added a Research and Expertise tab including Keywords in the sidebar
- Minor improvements to the GraphQL endpoint and new sample queries
- Switching Search from React to web components
December 2019
12/20: Here's what's new in December (here's our super-short demo video for Sprint 11, which ended on December 6):
- Added a Publications tab to the profile with a sort button (note that the publication "entity" page is not finished)
- Installed a VIVO test site for loading sample data and fake faculty
- Hooked up the VIVO test site to the VIVO Scholar demo, which is no longer displaying OpenVIVO data but instead, sample data for VIVO Scholar development purposes
- Developers, check out the GraphQL playground here: https://scholars-discovery-scholars.cloud.duke.edu/gui to query the new test data.
Stay tuned for more info about querying sample data with GraphQL.
November 2019
11/26: We've added the following new features to the VIVO Scholar demo (watch the demo video here):
- Home page is mostly complete (you can change the background photo)
- Profile page: the About tab is mostly done (except for organizations)
- Demo data is coming from OpenVIVO for now, but sample data is coming soon
- The Search results are not complete; this will be developed in early 2020
