Drupal India Community have been talking about Pan India code sprint and with effort and cooperation of regional communities we were finally able to organise a combined sprint, we had participation from Mumbai, Jaipur, Delhi and Pune. This is an account of Pune sprint which happened at QED42 Office in Viman Nagar. We had a total attendance of 10 Drupalers out of which 2 were first time sprinters ( Congratulations Dhruvesh and Shreyal on attending your first sprint :) ).
The focus of the sprint was porting modules from D7 to D8 and trying to reach stable releases of some of the modules that were started in previous sprints. One of those modules was auto_entitylabel the issues were triaged prior to the code sprint, so we had less trouble getting around the issues & fixing them up. EOD, we were able to get a basic version of the module, which included integration with tokens.
Ajit mentored Dhruvesh on autologout tasks and Dhruvesh contributed a fix to an issue in D8 version of the module & then backported it to Drupal 7 version as well.
Sprint also included some code review work around heap_analytics module, which Nitesh ported to Drupal 8 (https://github.com/nitesh11/heap_analytics).
Overall, it was a productive sprint & we plan to continue the same on Last Saturday of every Month. Keep an eye on auto_entitylabel, jquery_carousel, heap_analytics if you are interested to use them in Drupal 8, couple of sprints and help from community we should be able to release stable versions of these modules :) we specifically need help on testing of these modules and reporting issues.
