############################## Developer Onboarding Checklist ############################## *Welcome to Data Management*. This page will help you get the necessary accounts. .. _getting-started-lsst-account: LSST account ============ Contact ``lsst-sysadmins _at_ lsst.org`` to get a unified LSST account. This gives you access to: - The internal project website, including travel requests: http://project.lsst.org - The JIRA project management app: http://jira.lsstcorp.org/ - The Confluence wiki: https://confluence.lsstcorp.org GitHub and LSST organizations ============================= If you don't have one already, create an account on https://github.com. Next, ask your T/CAM to add you to the `lsst <https://github.com/lsst>`__ and `lsst-dm <https://github.com/lsst>`__ GitHub organizations, along with any relevant team organizations (send your GitHub username to your T/CAM). .. seealso:: - :doc:`/tools/git_setup` page for recommendations on setting up two-factor authentication and credential helpers for GitHub. - :doc:`/tools/git_lfs` page for configuring Git LFS for DM. NCSA server access ================== Contact ``lsst-account _at_ ncsa.illinois.edu`` to request an account on the NCSA cluster, which hosts the reference platform. Include the following in the request: - First and last name - Email - Phone number - Mailing address - Sponsoring LSST manager - LSST Team or project .. seealso:: :doc:`/services/lsst-dev`. Community.lsst.org ================== https://community.lsst.org is LSST's public-facing discussion and support forum. Browse the `forum-howto <https://community.lsst.org/tags/forum-howto>`_ tag to learn how to use the platform. Create an account, and let your T/CAM know your username to get access to internal discussion categories. **T/CAMs:** add users via the `LSST <https://community.lsst.org/groups/LSST>`__ and `LSSTDM <https://community.lsst.org/groups/LSSTDM>`__ group pages. HipChat ======= `HipChat <https://www.hipchat.com/>`_ is DM's internal instant messaging platform. Install HipChat on your computer (and phone, if you wish) and then ask your T/CAM for an invitation to DM's group. Some important rooms to follow are: - 'Data Management' for general DM discussion. - 'Software Development' for anything about writing software. - 'SQuaRE' for developer support services. - 'Bot: Jenkins' for our Continuous Integration system. - 'Tavern' for "water cooler" type talk. - 'Tea Time' for more serious but still non-LSST conversation. Your team may also have specific rooms, and you can send private messages to individuals. Google account for Hangouts =========================== Many small meetings are conducted on `Google Hangouts <https://hangouts.google.com/>`_, which requires you to have an account with https://google.com. The meeting convener will pass around a Hangouts room URL to attendees. Mailing lists ============= We don't use mailing lists for conversations, but they're still used for notifications about conversations happening on https://community.lsst.org. You should be subscribed to these lists as soon as you get an :ref:`LSST acccount <getting-started-lsst-account>`: - `dm-devel <https://lists.lsst.org/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel>`_ - `dm-staff <https://lists.lsst.org/mailman/listinfo/dm-staff>`_ (internal list)
