Seventeenth hacknight – 29 participants.
Breakout groups:
Toronto planning application scraper group (with Open Orders group)
Participants: Gabe, Josh, Abby
– We finished the parser, updated the DB schema, and are now inserting records into the database!
– We use REPLACE INTO to save just the newest versions of records.
– We noticed some inconsistencies in the ward associated with records, so we added a manual column for ward.
– That introduced a new bug — once we fix that, we can set up a daily cron job, then start doing QA and running queries.
– (Our goal was to complete this project by the end of November, but we’ve got 99% functionality complete, and it’s only Nov 10!)

The workshop consultation was a great success, with rich insights offered by all.
We’ve captured minutes, sub-group notes and presentations, and will analyze those, and incorporate them into our planning going forward.
