Quickstart about geni-gedcom HOT 14 CLOSED

@Raynes can you take care of this?

from geni-gedcom.

Yep. I love writing documentation. I'll get a guide going in the next day or so.

Thanks guys ;-)

@aureis I've got this on my TODO list for Monday. Really busy with last minute moving stuff. Hope that's alright.

from geni-gedcom.

No problems, thanks !

@aurels Just added instructions on getting the importer going. Let me know if they're sufficient.

from geni-gedcom.

Thanks, I'll try it out today when I am able and I'll let you know my eventual issues ;-)

Hello,

I can build and start the project without any trouble at all !

On the other side, I can't find the way to get an access token. There isn't such a "Get Access Token" link/button on the API explorer page. Google doesn't help me. Do I have to activate something on my account ?

Thanks.

from geni-gedcom.

Right, you probably need to register an app. I'll update the instructions in a few.

from geni-gedcom.

Updated. Let me know if that works out.

from geni-gedcom.

Raynes,

After reading you update I'm able to get a token ;-)

I'm now stuck at the step of the gedcom file upload. When I upload it, it does nothing for dozens of seconds. I then get a JS error in the console :

Failed to load resource: Resource failed to load http://qa.geni.com:9255/geni-gedcom/upload
Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected end of input

Do you think my ged file is broken ? It comes from MacFamilyTree and I can successfully import it in other software. I'm probably missing something here.

Btw, do I need to use the master branch or develop ?

from geni-gedcom.

I was accidentally pushing against master until this last push. Make sure you've got the latest develop. I fixed that yesterday.

from geni-gedcom.

Awesome it works. Many thanks to you for your help.

from geni-gedcom.

No problem! If you ever have any other issues, let us know.
