ActionShootingScores changes to IDPA overall results view

16 Monday Apr 2007

Until this past Sunday (4/15), my IDPA scoring code allowed for combining BUG and Noncompliant (say a cowboy style revolver or a carbine) into an IDPA scenario match along with the standard IDPA divisions (ssp, cdp, etc.). When displaying the Overall Match Results view, the BUG and Noncompliant divisions were dropped. They did appear on the Results by Division and Results by Division and Classification views.

No longer. Now all the divisions are in the Overall Match Results view. To separate out the BUG and Noncompliant divisons just create separate matches for them. This is a much cleaner approach.

All I had to do to make this change was to comment out the following line of code in idpa_controller.rb:
results.delete_if { | s | s.division == 'BUG' or s.division == 'NC' } unless results == nil
Isn’t ruby great? I also changed the title to not say “excluding BUG and noncompliant divisions”

New Tidy XHTML Validator

Using an updated, and much improved, Tidy plug in for Firefox, I revised the xhtml in my ActionShootingScores Ruby on Rails application. Now the xhtml passes the Tidy validator (which it did before) and the new dtd validator which works the same way as the wc3 validator.

I’ll be moving the revised code to the production site this weekend.  [Friday 3/30] Done!

Added Page Caching to ActionShootingScores

Today I added page caching to my Ruby on Rails application, ActionShootingScores for IDPA matches. This should significantly speed up viewing of match results. I handle expiring the cached pages this way: When a match is being edited, it goes into an unpublished state. After the match director is happy with it, he or she publishes it. On both of these state transitions the pages associated with the match get expire_page() called for them. Also if a match is deleted it’s pages get expired.

Later, I’ll add this to the other match types.

I’ve found a couple of interesting forums that discuss competitive shooting. I have posted an invite for people to try out ActionShootingScores.com  on these.

IDPA forum look in the Match Chat area.

Brian Enos’ forum look in Match Management -> Operations -> Match Scoring

I have made some progress this week on implementing ICORE  on ActionShootingScores There are some things not working so I have not put this code on the production site. Hopefully I will be able to get it done next week. If anyone reading this is an ICORE match director who is willing to test this, please contact me at dagnygromer(AT).gmail(DOT COM)
