Week 1 report: Creation of a new GRASS GIS startup mechanism

Hello Community,




I am sending my report for Week 1 (June 1-June 5). The report can also be 
found in the project wiki: https://trac.osgeo.org/…dow
(https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/wiki/GSoC/2020/StartupWindow).





1) What did I complete this week?
I created a single PR related to the bigger topic related to changes in EPSG
page ( ​https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/670
(https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/670)). I made a change in layout 
definition. Now it is defined by boxSizer instead of gridBagSizer. Also, 
path to usr/share/proj/epsg was removed. Search and EPSG code text inputs 
were merged into one search input. An informative link to epsg.io was added.
Removing the picture of the world: ​https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/657
(https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/657) was already merged into master. 
Similarly, I am already done with the automatic detection of case-
independent cases of grassdata directory: ​https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/
pull/664(https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/664) (issue: ​https://github.
com/OSGeo/grass/issues/644(https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/issues/644).) 





2) What am I going to achieve next week?
Next week I am going to continue on PR regarding the EPSG page ( ​https://
github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/670(https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/670)). 
The layout is done, now I am gonna focus on events. There are several 
requirements: 

   * searching in a list on the fly 
   * choose automatically the first row and permit "next" button 
   * if epsg code is empty, nothing is selected and "next" button is not 
   active 
   * change informative URL according to a query string 
   

Furthermore, I am gonna work on improvement when GRASS should create a 
grassdata directory in the default path for its platform automatically (​
https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/issues/682
(https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/issues/682)). 





3) Is there any blocking issue?
No, it isn't. 





Regards,

Linda Kladivova
