make view donwload many pdf from various locations... specs?
<chomwitt1>
Joerg-Neo900: hi, i had issues compiling it , but wpwrak helped me
<wpwrak>
chomwitt1: when it's done, you'll have quick access to all the data sheets which are then locally cached
<chomwitt1>
the prospect of helping at hardware level , or the "crowdsoursing" of hardware inspection is very appealing to me.
<chomwitt1>
although my theoritical knowledges of electic circuis are low i wonder of visual inspection is a job not requiring to be an expert

often the contrary is true: experts tend to look for specific patterns. newbies don't know these patterns yet, so they have a better chance of finding unusual bugs :)
<chomwitt1>
wpwrak: if thats true maybe i'm lucky!
<wpwrak>
cherish that innocence while it lasts ! ;-)

<chomwitt1>
make view stalled and tries 5th time do download a connector spec
<chomwitt1>
so i stop make view and try to change the related file?
<wpwrak>
it should eventually proceed on its own
<wpwrak>
no easy fix for this one: als digi-key and mouser (which both still have the part) don't have local copies
<Joerg-Neo900>
you'll just miss that one datasheet in eeshow
<wpwrak>
always the best combination: a company that is very defensive about retaining control over where their data sheets go, and then fails to keep their server available 24/7 :)
<Joerg-Neo900>
indeed
<Joerg-Neo900>
wpwrak: how to avoid a make show retrying to download in vain for a long time, next time it gets invoked?
<Joerg-Neo900>
is there a cmdline option like --no-ds-download
<wpwrak>
Joerg-Neo900: i think, once it has completed, it won't try again until you change something in the schematics
<Joerg-Neo900>
aah ok
<Joerg-Neo900>
even when a download failed?
<Joerg-Neo900>
IOW when completed unsuccessfully
<wpwrak>
you could also touch docdb.out (after making changes) to keep it from updating the cache
<Joerg-Neo900>
:-)
<Joerg-Neo900>
chomwitt1: did it finish?
<wpwrak>
as long as it created docdb.out, it won't try again. and it should ignore download problems (that's what the -i option you asked for does :)
<chomwitt1>
nop
<Joerg-Neo900>
o.O

12 try on the same url
<chomwitt1>
so do i stop it?
<wpwrak>
wget can be persistent :)
<Joerg-Neo900>
ohmy! :-P
<Joerg-Neo900>
and it needs to timeout
<wpwrak>
wget should stop after 20 failed attempts
<Joerg-Neo900>
"good" X-P
<wpwrak>
chomwitt1: so you're close ;-)
<chomwitt1>
ok
<Joerg-Neo900>
for speeding up, try "killall wget"? wpwrak, approve that?
<Joerg-Neo900>
or will the script freak out on the (missing) reply from wget?
<wpwrak>
mmh. could work. but i'd just wait. should be almost through by now anyway.
<Joerg-Neo900>
it will reduce wget persistence to 5 tries a 30s
<Joerg-Neo900>
works, I just tested it
<Joerg-Neo900>
30 minutes for 8 tirs is really exaggerated
<Joerg-Neo900>
tries*
<chomwitt1>
Joerg-Neo900: u mean in case i run again make view in the future
<chomwitt1>
?
<Joerg-Neo900>
[2017-05-04 Thu 17:41:15] <chomwitt1> make view stalled and tries 5th time do download a connector spec [2017-05-04 Thu 18:17:17] <chomwitt1> it 'gave up' at 20th try
<Joerg-Neo900>
in case any URL from now on has same issue, yes
<Joerg-Neo900>
even for current run of make show
<Joerg-Neo900>
but I think make show should have finished meanwhile
<chomwitt1>
a!! it can change the wget behavior while running!?
<Joerg-Neo900>
unless it actually ran into another dead URL
<Joerg-Neo900>
wget gets invoked for each URL
<chomwitt1>
i see the script call wget again and again
<Joerg-Neo900>
yes
<chomwitt1>
ok done
<Joerg-Neo900>
:-)
e has quit [Quit: edk]

reduces waits from dead URLs from 18:17 - 17:41 =~ 35 minutes to 2:30min
<Joerg-Neo900>
"default is a 900-second read timeout" * "default is to retry 20 times" = ETERNITY

in my math that's 5h, no idea why yours already finsihed after less than 1h
<Joerg-Neo900>
your internet is slow?
<Joerg-Neo900>
iirc my last download from `make show` took like 2 minutes
<wpwrak>
Joerg-Neo900: this was the connect timeout, which is system-dependent (unless you override that)
<Joerg-Neo900>
hmm, possible
<Joerg-Neo900>
yeah, that's some 90s on my system, since the default 5 minutes sucked
<Joerg-Neo900>
I still wonder why chomwitt1's seems to still now finished
<Joerg-Neo900>
not* finished
<Joerg-Neo900>
or he's so shocked by eeshow he can't say a word :-D

can you please share the remaining 3 URLs?

OoOOoooOoo chomwitt1 going to help with neo900? ;-)
<Joerg-Neo900>
just in time :-) I'm negotiating with our layouter if and how he's going to use git and our tool framework (make, fped, eeshow...)
<Joerg-Neo900>
chomwitt1: so eeshow works for you?
<chomwitt1>
i'm reading the eeshow doc now with the goal to try and see if i can help .

DocScrutinizer05: i'm updating the anelok BOM and had to fix update the catalog query scripts (for digi-key and newark - they changed their product page layouts, so the scripts couldn't parse them anymore), which live in neo900 misc/bom/. shall i just update them there ? i didn't test things for the n900 side, but i guess there's little risk of having made anything worse
<Joerg-Neo900>
I need to think about that
<Joerg-Neo900>
err yes, please update them there and maybe test

hmm, makes it through digi-key and newark. fails at arrow. so their web designers weren't idle, either ...
<wpwrak>
and the ADP1653 (flash led controller) got a little harder to source ...

... and the PAS3225P supercap
pagurus has joined #neo900
<Joerg-Neo900>
the supercaps change constantly
<Joerg-Neo900>
you still can get PAS414 but sources change every other week
<Joerg-Neo900>
they do since 10 years
<Joerg-Neo900>
we're not religious about PAS3225P, we just picked that one since it seemed like "long term available and about right size"
<Joerg-Neo900>
if it's some other type that's en vogue now, we may still change to that one
<Joerg-Neo900>
with more and more smartphones coming with embedded battery that can't get removed by user, supercaps get out of fashion somewhat
