📂 Project: Dev
⭐ Priority: MEDIUM
Session Goal
The session aimed to explore and implement techniques for manipulating Mapbox style JSON files programmatically and to troubleshoot disk space issues on a filesystem root.
Key Activities
- PHP Class for Divi Builder: Developed a PHP class for custom module field templates in Divi Builder, focusing on border style selection.
- Mapbox Style Exploration: Reviewed Mapbox style JSON files, including the ‘Monochrome’ style, and explored the Mapbox Style Specification.
- Programmatic JSON Editing: Implemented a workflow for programmatically editing Mapbox style JSON using the Mapbox Styles API, including fetching, modifying, validating, saving, and uploading JSON styles.
- JSON Manipulation Techniques: Discussed various techniques for modifying JSON documents programmatically, including using JSON libraries and templating engines.
- Python JSON Parsing: Provided Python code snippets for reading and manipulating JSON data using the
jsonmodule. - Disk Space Troubleshooting: Outlined steps to troubleshoot and resolve disk space issues on the filesystem root, including using the
dfandducommands to analyze disk usage.
Achievements
- Successfully explored and documented methods for programmatically manipulating Mapbox style JSON files.
- Developed a systematic approach for troubleshooting disk space issues on Linux systems.
Pending Tasks
- Further exploration of advanced JSON manipulation techniques using external configurations and rule-based transformations.
- Implementation of automated scripts for disk space monitoring and alerting.
