Potable water in saline zone
Harvesting rain water on rocky terrain and conserving it can be a near impossible task, but the residents of Bhenkara village in Gujarat, have given a new dimension to water harvesting techniques.
In Bhenkara, a village in Savarkundla taluka efforts to conserve water began in 1967 in a small way. It started when Bhagwanbhai constructed nullah plugs (earthen bunds) to harvest water to recharge his well. His son, Purnabhai, well versed in water storage techniques, tried to explain PTin his native Gujarati language. PT in water harvesting parlance means percolation time of rainwater. The sustained increase of PT has helped him and his brothers, grow three crops instead of, what previously used to be, one a year. The farmers in his village earn almost twice what their counterparts receive in the belts along arid neighbourhood districts of Gujarat. All this was the result of the villagers getting involved in community work being carried out under several watershed programmes in the area since 1995-96.
Bhenkara is a village on rocky terrain, where rainwater drained down and made its conservation an impossible task. In hard rocky soil, water does not percolate below 40-50 feet due to the abundance of black stones. Purnabhai, president of the village's water resource management committee says, In 1987-88, several earthen bunds were constructed to store rainwater for recharging wells. The farmers of our village benefited a lot. In 1990 again, an attempt was made to store water. In 1995-96 we began the work of water management in the village. Now surface-run-off rainwater is arrested in the catchment areas. Land was also levelled. Prior to this, due to undulating terrain water used to flow down. In 1994, when farmers of Bhenkara village participated in the monthly meeting organised by Sri Kundla Taluka Gram Sewa Mandal (SKTGSM) that was held on a Poonam (full moon) day, they came to know about the benefits of rainwater harvesting. Says Purnabhai, I knew about the benefits of rainwater harvesting as early as 1987-88. Near my land, I constructed nullah plugs for recharging the wells. But to start it in a full-fledged manner I needed technical assistance and guidance which was provided by SKTGSM.Sitting next to him Chaggibhai, his brother says, We knew the benefits of constructing nullah plugs from our childhood as my father Bhagwanbhai got encouraging results.Now even our children are taken out to fields as a part of their academic exercise in school. They are taught to sow, water and harvest,points out Laxmanbhai, the sarpanch of Bhenkara village. Bhenkara's water resource management committee forms part of several such projects being carried out in 35 villages in Savarkundla block of Amreli district by the SKTGSM headed by Manubhai Mehta, considered to be one of the pioneering practitioners of Gujarat's traditional water harvesting technique. It is not just afforestation, fodder development, and land-shaping that the SKTGSM has taken up. Mehta and his band of 250 volunteers, has been tackling the problems of water scarcity of 82 villages for nearly a decade. SKTGSM has resorted to innovative measures like desalinating some marshy patches to render the water potable and land arable.
The farmers
earn almost twice what their counterparts do in the arid
districts. All this
was possible because they got involved in the watershed programmes
The brackish water at Shelna village had been unsuitable for farming, let alone being potable till 1998. The SKTGSM, with a grant from the Sir Dorabji Trust, began raising dykes that checked the run-off rainwater allowing it to mix with saline water, thus diluting the salinity to a considerable extent. Two checkdams, three percolation tanks, a nullah plug and a farm pond have now made the water in the wells fit for cooking. SKTGSM lays emphasis on people's participation while executing the project costing Rs 16.25 crore. The advantage with the functionaries of SKTGSM is that relations with the village community dates back 50 to 60 years. Moreover, Savarkundla is located in an area where it would be difficult to receive water from Sardar Sarovar Project or any other canal. Since water is so scarce, we have no option but to manage it better,says Aswinbhai Trivedi, team leader of SKTGSM's water management project. In Bhenkara, productivity doubled after they built 6 earthen dams, recharged 200 wells and dug trenches to collect rainwater. They have been able to grow more cash crops and express their joy at not having to depend entirely on rain-fed agriculture.
SKTGSM was founded in 1936 by the Gandhian trio of Keshbai Bhavsar, Lallubhai Seth and Amlukhbhai Khimani, who were pioneers of social activism in the taluka and are now no more. In pre-independent India, when the taluk faced the problem of heavy levying on millet (bajra), the trio decided to take up cudgels on behalf of the farmers. The taluk, infested with dacoits compelled these pioneers to involve the people to put up a resistance against criminal activities. Their commitment towards a social cause stemmed from their deep involvement in the freedom movement. After independence the SKTGSM became a platform to initiate a campaign for the dissolution of princely states, for turning Gandhi's dream of Gram Swarajinto a reality. The focus of the mandals activities was to make the villages self-reliant. Community involvement in its development projects has been astounding, as it is visible in its monthly meeting on poonam days. SKTGSM activists have, with the help of the people achieved a lot in water management in the 82 villages of the taluka. They have built 826 kacha bandhra (row water enclosures) against a target of 800, 78 check dams, 30 ponds against a target of 12 and 3,711 hectares of land was levelled against a goal of 3,500 hectares. The mandal distributed 3 lakh trees to the villagers out of which 1,21,800 were planted. The concerted effort towards water conservation helped in increasing the groundwater table and the farmers were able to irrigate 9,989 acres of land.
Remarks Sonabai, a shepherdess of Pithavadi village, Now our well has more water. There is ample water for the cotton crop. I have been able to repay half of my debts. Now we do not need any help from the government. Villagers do not depend on government schemes for subsistence and they have ensured that future generations too will be economically independent.

Subject fees to scrutiny
SmokeNmirrorAug. 20, 2008 10:45 p.m.
This is the old airline ticket price game. The price of the ticket is low and remains low. However, the fees, surcharges, fuel riders, extra baggage fees, security tax, airport improvement tax, nine dollar for a cold coffee rider, air traffic controller clawback, you name it, they all add up. It's all the lexicon of 'we're going to charge you more, but call it something else'.
elAug. 20, 2008 1:09 p.m.
Fees are fair because Each Resident pays, and pays the same for services each resident receives, and receives the same!

After all those years of Mike Leavitt's "tax cuts" and we are just figuring this out?

May 29, 2014 I went on a field trip to Coal Creek.
We have hundreds (if not thousands) of old mines here and this may well be a solution for returning those scarred slopes back to what they once were- alpine meadow and grassland.

Soil Scientist- White River National Forest
No, you probably haven't heard of it but I hope a lot more people will hear about it and we can start this process throughout the Western US.
Here's an overview of the Coal Basin Project
…. or as Scott Snelson calls it "the biochar grazing nexus" . Scott was District Ranger of the White River National Forest at the start of this project.
Youtube is being uncooperative this morning- so you'll need to click. If you want to read the Aspen Times article on Scott without feeding the marketing machine then go to the link on a tablet or a smart phone. aspentimes.com/article
The group yesterday was impressive. We had representatives from Pitkin County, the Town of Carbondale, The National Forest, the Roaring Fork Conservancy, Roaring Fork Water Shed Plan and The Crystal River Cattlemen's Association to name a few. Soil Scientists and Geologists who have been monitoring the project were also there. The short version- this represented a lot of cooperation between Federal Government, County Governments (both Pitkin and Garfield), City Government, Private enterprise and non-profit Organizations. Cooperation and collaboration between agencies and individuals for mutual benefit - what a concept. That may well be the most heartening part of this story.
We met at the Coke Ovens at Redstone.
and we carpooled up the Coal Creek Basin.
Here's Wayne Ives of the White River National Forest giving us an overview at our first stop.
This was an area which was covered in mining "slag"

much like the Hope Mine on Castle Creek.
Unlike the Hope Mine this area had traditional grazing on it until about 30 years ago.
So what did the "Coal Basin Restoration Project" do? They used Cattle, Compost, Cattle Stomp and Biochar to restore something which used to look like this:
into something which looks like this
What you're looking at is an acre which has 2 different treatments. Both involve cattle and both involve "seed stomping" one has biochar the other does not.
Here's the process.
noxious weed control.

a 17th century cure for baldness, dog attacks and hemorrhoids but still a noxious weed.
(Weeds of the West- excellent book)
Then they spread 3" of compost and then covered it with hay, "White River National Forest seed mix" and straw.

Soil Scientist- White River National Forest
On half the compost had an additional 5% biochar other than that the process was the same.
Then came the cattle.
Photo Brian McMullen
Soil Scientist- White River National Forest
The cattle "stomped" the White River National Forest seed mix in, ate the hay and left the straw for cover (aka "litter). The cattle also left behind fertilizer and hoof prints (I'll get back to that later)
Take a closer look….
You see the distinct change in color in the soil?
That's the biochar.
That's moisture retention.
That's gold.
Compost, Hay, Straw, Seeds and Cattle *without* biochar.
Compost, Hay, Straw, Seeds and Cattle *with* biochar.
Each hoof print creates a microclimate which provides shade and a place for water to pool.
Here's the microclimate without biochar.
Here's the microclimate with biochar.

Soil Scientist- White River National Forest
Got it?
Okay…. up the road a bit… and this time take the cattle out of the process...
Start with what's left over from an avalanche on the road (shale washed down from the cliffs above)
..bring in the machines
photo from the White River National Forest and Roaring Fork Conservancy pdf
to give you some furrows to impede erosion and give the water someplace to settle…
3" of compost with no biochar
3" of compost with 5% biochar

Soil Scientist- White River National Forest
in case you were wondering...
what 1" of compost with biochar will do…
what 3" of compost and biochar will do
There are a lot of elements to this experiment.
There are plots growing native grasses and forbs under controlled conditions.

Soil Scientist- White River National Forest
(These "bioislands" were planted by Garfield County prison inmates.)
There are sediment monitors on the creek
(There is a lot of sediment in that water- I mean a lot…)
photo from the Roaring Fork Conservancy pdf
and soil moisture monitors in the ground.
The tubes go into the ground for control, non-biochar and biochar compost sections.
Soil moisture monitor at 2", 8" and 20" of depth.
Here's the data- the process doubles the moisture content
(or more- I'll give you exact figures as soon as I get them).
It's our choice, slag and erosion or
Here's more information on the Cattle Stomp and using the Savory Method to reverse desertification in the links; and here's info on Biochar from Morgan Williams at the 2012 ACES talk (youtube- get your act together please….) click here for the video.

SmartMax Magnetic Construction Toys Feature + Giveaway
Thank you to SmartMax for sending me products. As always, all opinions are my own.
I'm always on the hunt for fun toys for our kids, but especially toys that our kids will use for years. I tend to lean towards products that don't involve screen time and will force my kids to use their imaginations. Magnetic toys have been a huge hit in our household so far, and when I saw our son playing with a SmartMax Build Set at our MOPS group, I knew he'd love to get some this Christmas.
SmartMax Build XXL
Our MOPS caregivers told me that he plays with that build set every time I drop him off! I knew the SmartMax Build XXL set would be perfect for him. With 70 pieces and a large box for storage, this set has a variety of magnetic balls plus long and short bars. The possibilities are endless with this set! The top and bottom of the box can be built upon and have grids to help kids line things up. The balls are 3cm so there's no way a child could choke on one, or even get it in their mouth.
The bars vary in strength – I've tested them out and they are SO strong. They're easy to build with which is great for kids who get frustrated at their creations falling apart easily. There's no chance these SmartMax toys will fall apart unless you're intentionally trying to make them. I know this will be a toy that both of our kids love, and that's another reason I chose the XXL set. There are plenty of pieces to go around so they can work alone or cooperatively. I can't wait to see our son open this on Christmas!
SmartMax also offers a variety of other sets, including their My First sets! This My First Farm Animals Set is so adorable and perfect for little fingers working on hand-eye coordination and STEM skills. It comes with a variety of farm animals that click easily together and can even be interchanged for a little silly fun!
SmartMax products are glued together and ultrasonically welded so you don't need to worry about them coming apart or the magnets getting out. They're built with safety in mind and they feel very heavy-duty and high-quality. All of the pieces fit back into the box for easy storage, too!
My First Tractor Set is another adorable My First set from SmartMax! Our son is going to love the tractor that comes together with magnets and can haul horses. This set is the perfect complement to My First Farm Animals but can also be used as a standalone set! This set has 22 pieces and is perfect for ages 18 months and up. All of these SmartMax sets are compatible with each other so you can continue to build on your collection as kids get older! I can't wait to add more sets to our collection and I know our kids will use these for years to come.
- Buy it: You can purchase SmartMax products on Amazon.
- Follow: Keep up with SmartMax on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
- Win it: One lucky reader will win a SmartMax My First Set! The winner will choose My First Farm Animals OR My First Tractor Set. This giveaway is open to the contiguous US and ends 12/12. Good luck!
Hi there! I'm Amber, a 30 year old wife and mom of two from central Minnesota. I love to travel and to be outside with my kids anywhere the weather is warm! When I have a spare free moment, I love to read and scrapbook as well as binge-watch Netflix long after the kids are asleep. I drink too much Caribou Coffee and have a real sweet tooth but also try very hard to consume organic foods and use eco-friendly, fair trade products as much as possible. I also love socializing and sharing about my favorite products!

The tractor set is amazing! This would be a great addition to my preschool classroom ! I have never seen this toy before, so thanks for the review. Going to check this company out .
My first farm animal set would be perfect for my friends' children; they are so curious about animals. I like that you have to put them together, but that they are also safe.

The Athens-Zaleski Lizard Map is the most comprehensive recreational map available of the Athens Ohio area. It features public lands, preserves, state parks, national forests, lakes and trails. Explore all the best recreation that the Athens, Nelsonville and Zaleski region has to offer with the Athens Zaleski Lizard Map.
Our maps are big! 24 x 36 inches, beautifully designed and easy to read. Highly detailed with contour lines, shaded relief, hydrography, local roads and place names and printed on waterproof paper.
What's on the map? Athens, of course, and Ohio University. The entire Hockhocking Adena Bikeway from Athens to Nelsonville. Plus the Hockhocking Rver that runs alongside it. A big chunk of Wayne National Forest, all of Lake Hope and Strouds Run State Park with their extensive mountain bike, equestrian and backpacking trail systems. And we couldn't forget about Moonville! Plus every backroad, byway and highway that connects all these great places together.
Trail running is fantastic in this area. Hikers have a lot of foot-only options in Zaleski State Forest and Lake Hope and Strouds Run State Parks, as well as several Preserves in the surrounding area. Mountain bikers enjoy an incredible network of nested loops in Lake Hope and Strouds Run State Parks, as well as the Hockhocking Adena 18-mile bikeway between Athens and Nelsonville. Road bikers and gravel riders enjoy a massive network of paved and gravel roads in the surrounding area, including the fantastic Moonville Rail Trail.

The Zaleski State Forest Backpacking Trail is among the most popular in the state. It has three loops that are roughly 10 miles each, depending on how you enter and exit you can do a 10, 20 or 30+ mile trip with designated group campsites that have latrines and water. Not having to carry water makes this a great trip for all ages.
Just minutes from downtown Athens you will find Strouds Run State Park where you can pedal, hike or trail run on a seemingly endless network of wooded paths. Rent a canoe, kayak, pedal boat, paddle board or hydro-bike and explore the lake. About 30 minutes away is Lake Hope State Park, where you will find similar options nestled in the middle of Zaleski State Forest, which is the second-largest State Forest in Ohio with 28,000 acres waiting for you to explore. Tent camping and cabin rentals are available at each State Park if you just can't leave.
A quote from an article in Dirt Rag: While I don't want to overstate this, these [Athens] trails are truly outstanding on many levels. Their layout and construction are top notch, and they traverse a landscape studded with beautiful cliffs, coves, and rock formations. There are high ridges, deep ravines, and impressive lake and valley views. The singletrack is fast and flowing and at times rocky and tricky-technical. You will never be bored there.
All Purple Lizard maps are available flat (rolled up, unfolded) suitable for framing in a corporate lobby or just nailing to a cabin wall. The map cost is the same ($12) but shipping varies. E-mail firstname.lastname@example.com for specifics.

Parashiyot Tazria and Metzora introduce us to Tzara'at, which is the consequence of speaking Leshon HaRa. Rav Yosef Schwab writes in his Sefer Nifle'ot HaTorah that there are three types of Tzara'at on a person's skin which correspond to three kinds of Leshon HaRa. First, there is Se'eit, which is a type of Tzara'at that is a growth above the skin. It corresponds to Motzi Sheim Ra, Leshon HaRa that is an absolute lie. Just like the growth of the skin is not really a part of the person, so too a lie about somebody is not about that person. The second type of Tzara'at is Baheret, which is bright and clear on a person's skin. This corresponds to pure Leshon HaRa that is absolutely true. Just like this Tzara'at is bright and clear, so too the absolute Leshon HaRa is clear and true. The third and final type of Tzara'at is Sapachat, which is an off-white blemish and corresponds to Rechilut. This type of Leshon HaRa is when a person says a comment that he thinks is innocent, but which causes misunderstanding or turns into a negative interpretation. Although people may rationalize that what they said wasn't intended for bad, if anything bad can be inferred from it, then it is Leshon HaRa. This Tzara'at is an off-white blemish that can be interpreted to be something that it is not, just like Rechilut can be misinterpreted into something negative.
There is a question that we should all be thinking. Why does Tzara'at occur on the legs and arms but not on the face? Wouldn't it make sense that the mouth that speaks Leshon HaRa should be the mouth that receives Tzara'at?
Rav Schwab answers that if a person were to be given Tzara'at on his face, then he would be too ashamed to do a successful Teshuvah. When someone has Tzara'at on his legs and his hands, he can then hide it and not be ashamed. Thus, his main goal will be to do Teshuvah for saying Leshon HaRa and he will be more focused getting rid of his Tzara'at. However, if a person's face were to be given Tzara'at, his Teshuvah would be to just get rid of the Tzara'at. Out of the embarrassment caused, the person would not actually focus on the Leshon HaRa he committed.
It is clear that Teshuvah for Leshon HaRa must be sincere. While Tzara'at no longer occurs today, we must realize from this week's Parashiyot that speaking Leshon HaRa is extremely serious. Let us internalize the lessons from Tazria and Metzora and make sure to avoid the sin of Leshon HaRa, lest we some day when Tzara'at returns suffer the uncomfortable consequences.

text: te0p 10 Posted December 5, 2013 I dont know if any one else experiences this from time to time. I run my computer pretty much 24/7 and dont turn it off, i do turn off the monitor.speakers etc.. but the PC stays on. Before i leave it to go to work or wherever, i go to start, little arrow next to Shut down(updates) and press LOCK. Sometimes in my haste i accidently press Log off or sometimes worse, shutdown. Thing is, of all the times Windows PC's prompt you to confirm your action, "are you sure you want to save this file?" etc... The one time when you might have unsaved work or 20 webpages open it will just shut down. Surely it could just have a simple prompt like: "Are you sure?" It would be nice. Anyway, it generally isnt that big a deal, most stuff saves it self, browser can be re-opended etc.. But if you are in a work flow of sorts and you do it, it can really break your stride and frustrate you. If it had been prompting me for the last 10 years i would probably be complaining about that.

Road Games
There are a lot of times when we find ourselves in the car with kids who don't want to be. To help combat the "are we there yet?" and "when are we going to get there?" questions we have developed a little game. I quickly found out that I Spy is a bit harder than I remember it being when I was a kid. Mostly because the kids don't get the concept of finding things IN the car to describe, not things we have just passed.
This little game started as Bible Trivia, which my daughter rocked by the way. It has morphed into Jungle Trivia and other such trivia games. Last night, with a cranky Honey and an over stimulated B-Man (see here) we made our way over to my in-laws for Sunday Dinner. Since we have been reading Harry Potter (YES!!! FINALLY!!! I can FINALLY share my FAVOURITE BOOKS with my kids!! WOOHOO!!! Sorry, I got a little carried away there) we had a game of Harry Potter Trivia.
Here's how we played Harry Potter Trivia. As you can probably guess, it's easily interchangeable.
At this point it can go one of two ways. The person who guessed it gets a turn to pick a character and ask questions OR you can go in a circle around the car so that everyone has a chance.
I loved B-Man's clues last night. We are currently reading Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. Here were his clues:
Hahahahaha! Can you guess who he's talking about?
P.S. It's better than the "Honey guess what's in pants" question he asked on the way home. FYI, he had rolled his car in his pant leg, THANK GOD! That could have gone REALLY wrong.

At least 16 people have been killed and several houses burned to the ground in Batangafo, north of the Central African Republic (CAR). The deaths were caused by clashes between Christian anti-Balaka militia who attempted to occupy territories belonging to the Central African Patriotic Movement (MPC), a faction of the Muslim Seleka rebellion.
Reports on the ground indicate that most of the residents of the area are hiding in bushes and IDP camps with little to no activities taking place including school or trade. Locals have developed psychological problems especially the injured people who do not dare to go to the hospital for fear of being attacked on the way.
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres visited the country last week. He called on the international community to act in solidarity to help the Central African Republic deal with chaos and violence. Guterres said the nation is at risk of plunging back into a war.
The country has been wracked by violence since Muslim Seleka rebels ousted then-President Francois Bozize, a Christian, in 2013.

I find it strange that high production equipment is sold with 400,000 / 500,000 copies.
Ricoh C651 / 751, Ricoh C5100, Ricoh MP9002 etc. Can this be true? How can I know if the
counters were reduced by some pirate? Is there any way to know?
I find it strange that high production equipment is sold with 400,000 / 500,000 copies.
Ricoh C651 / 751, Ricoh C5100, Ricoh MP9002 etc. Can this be true? How can I know if the
counters were reduced by some pirate? Is there any way to know?
The MP 9002 has an mechanical counter inside the front door. You just have to peel off a little gray decal. Most bigger machines have a mechanical counter. All the Wide format B/W machines have an external mechanical counter.
I don't remember on these units, but I think they have a Mechanical counter hidden somewhere behind a cover inside the front door (I may be wrong). I have also posed this question to our service manager and other techs in the past thinking it odd that we've received some with 100k - 200k total on them (Pro C751 and C8002). Manager said "It could be a company that bought one and then went out of business in a short time". Who knows! I do believe that it's pretty hard to mess with the meters on a machine (unless it's an NVRAM change, which will zero out the counter that you see on display and then go up from that point on).
I find 9002 from a reputable company that I've used before with less than 350,000 sometimes. I always check the mechanical counters and they have always matched.
A low meter on large production machines is, most likely, the salesman's "over sale".
"You can't trust your eyes, if your mind is out of focus" --
I agree most of the time the low meters are legit and over sold by a salesman as the other posted suggested. I would actually trust an electronic counter more than a mechanical, but having both on a machine is best. I have seen machines where the mechanical counters have been opened and rolled back. I've had some where the elec & mech numbers don't match. I just won't buy these machines. There are instances when NVRAM, etc are replaced and the reason meters don't match. And of course there are pirate dealers who turn back meters. They are thieves and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. These are the same dealers who swap consumables, bad boards, etc with machines going back to leasing companies. Then an independent like me buys one of these swapped out off lease machines thinking it has a nice low meter only to find out I got screwed!
One of our customers has had a Ricoh Pro 8100 which came back after 4 Years with a counter of 805.000. It's less than 20.000/month. He has a Ricoh Pro 8200 now, still less than 20.000/month.
Another customer has a Ricoh SP 5200 Printer with 25.000/month!!!
You know for some people having something really fast is just the issue.
Just to add, I would check the DF and Platen scans, plus inspect visually in detail covers off etc. It's not unknown for some devices to end up scanning far more than they do print nowadays. I have also seen customers need a loan machine as a issue with their original device was thought to be having major issues and might need to be swapped out then suddenly a solution is found.
In some very wealthy companies where the print room has a standby machine (Which rarely gets used as they were lucky with downtime) or just as likely the print room fits three devices (for the sake of argument) and there are two operators, the two operators both have a favourite machine and only use the third when they have to as further from their desks.

To create a new project, follow the steps below.
- Right-click in Project Explorer to launch the New Project wizard.
- Open the Repository folder, select Configuration Project, and then click Next.
- Select the tenant library connection that you created in the earlier step, and make sure that the two Retrieve from the connected library options and selected. Click Next.
- The project name defaults to the tenant library connection name. Click Finish.
- The Configuration Project creation and population process runs.
When this process is complete, a new Configuration Project appears in the Project Explorer, and the Library Process Configuration (LPC) document editor opens in the editor view. An example is shown below.
Define New Metadata Elements
To define metadata elements, complete the following steps, illustrated below:
Open GDT Editor
Close the LPC editor. In the configuration project, double-click the gdt.xml file. The Global Definition Template (GDT) Editor opens in the editor view.
Define New Metadata Element
To define a simple metadata element, left-click the + icon on the Classifiers section of the editor. Simple metadata elements include:
- String (open or enum)
- Boolean
- Date
- Decimal
The convention is to use lower-case with connecting hyphens for the classifier name.
when you click Finish, the new classifier is added to the GDT, as shown below. This example is a Boolean classifier.
Further editing of the newly defined classifier is typically not required.
You can define additional classifiers in the same way, as shown below.
Date classifier:
Decimal classifier:
String classifier (string classifier types can be specified as open or enumerated).
Enumerated string classifier: To specify a string as enumerated, define the enumeration values by selecting the + action on the Values Constraints section of the Define Classifier Type dialog. Fill in the value field with the desired enumerated value, leave the other fields blank, and click Finish.
The enumerated values are presented by the developer portal UI in the order in which they are specified. If necessary, you can reorder individual values by selecting the value and clicking the up or down arrow.
To specify taxonomic classifiers (for example, business domain/subdomain) expand the Compound Classifiers section of the editor.
When specifying a compound classifier, specify the fields of the classifier first, and then specify the allowed values.
The ordering of fields in the editor dialog controls the definition of the taxonomy levels. Use the up and down arrow actions as needed to establish the correct ordering.
You must specify all valid value combinations for the taxonomy in the Values section of the dialog. To separate field values, use the pipe character (|).
You can specify URL-based fields by defining by-reference artifact types.
Note that you must clear the Textual description and File upload containment options as these are currently not supported by the API Platform UI.
Once all new elements are defined, save and close the GDT editor.
Populate Defined Elements into API and/or App Types
Expand the Capture-Templates folder of the configuration project. Also expand the Common Asset.ctxml template to view its child templates.
Capture Templates are used to associate elements defined in the Global Definition Template with specific asset type/state combinations. For this release, the only asset types supporting extensible metadata in the API Platform are API, app, and User. There are two sets of templates:
- The API - Initial and App - Initial templates are used to specify create-time extensible metadata elements and constraints.
- The API - Specified and App - Specified templates are used to specify edit-time metadata elements and constraints (for example, to lock down a value entered at create time to become read-only, or to introduce an additional element that is applicable only after initial creation).
Double-click the desired template to open the template editor. Start with the Initial template prior to editing the Specified template, as all changes made to the Initial template will be automatically inherited by the Specified template.
Collapse the General section of the Editor, and expand the Classifiers section to add Boolean, date, decimal, string (open or enum) and taxonomy types previously specified in the GDT.
Select the + action to add a classifier to the template. It's only necessary to specify a name.
Click Finish, and then expand the Constraints subsection of the Properties section of the newly added classifier to add cardinality or read-only constraints. Read only, Minimum occurrences and Maximum occurrences are the only constraints currently supported by the API Platform UI. In addition, you can specify a default value, in the General Appearance Properties section of the editor.
Expand the Artifacts section of the editor to add a previously-defined URL element to the template.
Upload the Configuration
After saving all the edited template files, right-click on the top-level configuration project folder in the Project Explorer view and select Upload to Library to access the upload dialog. If this is the first time this configuration has been uploaded, select the correct tenant connection and check the set as the default for this project option. Click OK to initiate the upload.
A progress dialog appears until the upload is complete.
