Ah, OK. I missed it.

Please fix the binary inclusion (do not forget to rename the
tarball then).



hi Anton

I noticed that although the auto-test did run for the pyjdata
package, it reported 0 test. I migrated my test unit to use
unittest, and now it runs properly.

to make this update, I created a new upstream release (v0.3.6),
and imported it to salsa, see new commits here

Hi Qianqian,

- Remove all binaries from the code (ods-files)



forgive me, what are ods-files?



- pysdate - empty clean file is not needed

can you point me to an example project how this is done?

I currently have "|Testsuite: autopkgtest-pkg-python|" in control and 
"|export PYBUILD_TEST_ARGS=test/|" in rules, the CI pipeline seems to be 
ok with autopkgtest for pybj


https://salsa.debian.org/science-team/pybj/-/pipelines/158112


for pyjdata, two tests were failed due to the dependency to 
python3-bjdata (which I believe can be fixed once both packages are 
uploaded)

Please pay attention, I did not compile and test your packages. Please

most of those should have been fixed, let me know if you see something

I am working on packaging a number research software produced
from my lab and research projects. I have already submitted 5
octave-related projects, mentored by Rafael Laboissière (CCed)
via the Debian Octave Group. I intend to maintain these packages
in the future (already doing so for Fedora).

These two python modules are part of a bigger project that I
initiated last year (http://openjdata.org). They allow python
users to read/write JData-annotated data files produced by my
MATLAB toolbox JSONLab (https://github.com/fangq/jsonlab , about
46000 downloads on Matlab file exchange and ~1000 clones/week on
github). This work is partly funded by my NIH (National Institute
of Health) grants and broader dissemination is part of the
project goals.



Do you know how many people can be interested in these two

It looks like at least one of them duplicates the functionality

The *python-bjdata* project was extended from *python-ubjson* -
an existing Debian package. Unfortunately, the UBJSON spec
(http://ubjson.org), despite being broadly used, is no longer
actively maintained. I started a fork earlier this year to
continue the development of this specification, and python-bjdata
is a parser that is compliant to the BJData spec.

The jdata/bjdata framework is not a duplication to JSON -
instead, it defines a systematic way to encode basic data
structures into JSON/UBJSON/BJData serializable forms.

The detailed specifications, examples and rationales can be found at

http://openjdata.org/wiki/

in a way, the jdata module is similar to *json-tricks* but aimed
at a more systematic/standardized way to annotate complex data
(such as graphs, maps, ND arrays ...) for sharing, exchange and
reuse.

https://packages.debian.org/buster/python/python3-json-tricks

the bjdata module is a binary JSON format (similar to UBJSON, and
msgpack) to store binary and strongly typed hierarchical data.
The differences are highlighted in this github tracker

https://github.com/ubjson/universal-binary-json/issues/109

Although these two modules were recently developed, we are
beginning to integrate those in my other tools including
*iso2mesh* , *jsonlab*
 and *mcx* 
(~10,000 registered users combined). So

hi Anton

thanks for your comment. happy to explain. Changed message title from
"JSON/..." to "JData/BJData encoders and decoders" to avoid further
confusions.

see my self-introduction in a previous thread

https://lists.debian.org/debian-science/2020/06/msg6.html
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?submitter=fangqq%40gmail.com

I am working on packaging a number research software produced from my
lab and research projects. I have already submitted 5 octave-related
projects, mentored by Rafael Laboissière (CCed) via the Debian Octave
Group. I intend to maintain these packages in the future (already doing
so for Fedora).

These two python modules are part of a bigger project that I initiated
last year (http://openjdata.org). They allow python users to read/write
JData-annotated data files produced by my MATLAB toolbox JSONLab
(https://github.com/fangq/jsonlab , about 46000 downloads on Matlab file
exchange and ~1000 clones/week on github). This work is partly funded by
my NIH (National Institute of Health) grants and broader dissemination
is part of the project goals.

The *python-bjdata* project was extended from *python-ubjson* - an
existing Debian package. Unfortunately, the UBJSON spec
(http://ubjson.org), despite being broadly used, is no longer actively
maintained. I started a fork earlier this year to continue the
development of this specification, and python-bjdata is a parser that is
compliant to the BJData spec.

The jdata/bjdata framework is not a duplication to JSON - instead, it
defines a systematic way to encode basic data structures into
JSON/UBJSON/BJData serializable forms.

The detailed specifications, examples and rationales can be found at

http://openjdata.org/wiki/

in a way, the jdata module is similar to *json-tricks* but aimed at a
more systematic/standardized way to annotate complex data (such as
graphs, maps, ND arrays ...) for sharing, exchange and reuse.

https://packages.debian.org/buster/python/python3-json-tricks

the bjdata module is a binary JSON format (similar to UBJSON, and

Although these two modules were recently developed, we are beginning to
integrate those in my other tools including *iso2mesh*
, *jsonlab*  and
*mcx*  (~10,000 registered users combined). So
packaging and maintaining these tools will greatly facilitate the data
exchange among the user communities.

let me know if I can provide any additional explanations.
