A forked and adapted version of the original Thoughtworks(R) Technology Radar.
Original code and instructions are available in ThoughtWorks' github repo.
This fork was created and adapted for the EC funded Cyberwatching project (grant agreement no. 740129)
Over time this list will be updated with managed branch merges.
The original assigns numbers to the blips per quadrant, since blips in that use case are typically identified by their name. EC projects however from time to time have very similar or even identical acronyms, which makes identifying them only by that very difficult. Also, since the data is used elsewhere, cross-referencing by id is far easier.
This is solved by adding a new first column in the Google spreadsheet which carries the project id (a unique number) that is added to the blip object in the code, substituting for the setNumbers() function in Object Radar.
For our radar, we are using fixed ring names, independent of what's provided in the Google sheet, and all rings are always displayed in the given order, irrespective of their first appearances in the Google spreadsheet. (This helps with machine generated/calculated radar contents.)
Empty rings are plotted as well - as opposed to the original - to reach consistency across editions of our radars.
Rings specified in the source data but not part of our fixed ring set are ignored. Blips located on invalid rings are filtered out, and logged on the console.
Our data is not confidential, and write access to the Google sheet(s) is tightly controlled.
Our integration points are Google sheets, which allow for easier collaborative access. Data to be included in the sheets are processed and generated automatically, and write access in general is needed only for adding a new sheet and copying and pasting the data into it.
