Added Seasonality to Clojure Project – Harder than it Looks

Dark Magic Demand

I've spent many hours today getting the seasonality data into our clojure project. And I have to come away with the fact that it's a lot harder than it looks. A lot.

The problem for me was that the way this is being done in the clojure code is to have the entities defined in one file - but the tables created in another. Then all the insert/update as well as compare and load functions are in another file. There's a lot more to this than a simple set of INSERT statements. It's a lot more.

So I spent a good chunk of the afternoon trying to understand what I needed - based on the fact that I'd done a little of this with the demands and demand sets, but it's still a lot to do.

I hope to finish it tomorrow.
