PartSeg surveys

Since the partseg 0.15.3 release there is a new feature that allows to ask users for fill a survey to help in the PartSeg development.

How it works

Whole logic is implemented in PartSeg._launcher.check_survey module.

Survey message

  1. Check if ignore file exist and is last modified less than 16 hours ago. If yes, do nothing.

  2. Fetch data from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/4DNucleome/PartSeg/develop/survey_url.txt. If file do not exists or is empty, do nothing. Save fetched data as url to form.

  3. Check if ignore file exist and its content is equal to fetched url. If yes, do nothing.

  4. Display message to user with information that there is a survey available.

    • If user click “Open survey” button, open browser with fetched url.

    • If user click “Ignore” button, save fetched url to ignore file.

    • If user click “Close” button, touch the ignore file to prevent showing the message again for 16 hours.
