10 June - 16 June:

• Modified code so that the category field given by the user is correctly included in the commons metadata now.

• Discussed with my mentors regarding the possible approaches to make the app scalable so that support for new GLAMs can be easily added to the app.

01 July - 07 July:

• Written code for easily adding new GLAMs to the test app by following an OOP approach. Please find the code here.

08 July - 14 July:

• Discussed extensively with my co-mentor Zhuyifei regarding the possible implications of our OOP approach.
• Studied the code of the Flinfo app for uploading images.
• Changed our OOP design suitably so that each image upload is an instance of the base GLAM class.
• Added infobox templates Photograph and Art Photo.
• Click here for detailed report.

15 July - 21 July:

• Integrated the new code into Toollabs.
• Properly organized the github code into two branches with the help of Zhuyifei.
• Changed the implementation of the uploading module from UploadRobot to site.upload. But the uploads aren't taking place. I am investigating the cause.
