Definition: Create an easy way/feature to RETRIEVE previous logs of previous days during the 100 days of code event.
- Example Scenarios:
- Carl wants to retrieve what he logged for the 7th day.
- Carl wants to retrieve what he logged for the 45th day.
- Carl wants to retrieve what he logged for the 99th day.
- Possible Approaches:
- through a discord command of
++see_log_previous 10 , you can see the 10th previous log for the current user.
- create a guide on how to retrieve previous logs in the discord channel, assuming that there is a way to just search it through the search feature of discord.
- Cons:
- This might not work for people who use uncommon words for each day they log.
- Example:
- 13th day of 100 days of Code: August 30, 2023
- as indicated in the example, some people might have different ways to write their logs of the 100 days. To implement this it might be required to systemize the inputted day and implement methods to ensure everyone types it properly in a specific format.
- Create a separate interface to view previous logs.
- The seperate interface can simply be just another slide in the dashboard.
- Since we are retrieving the information every 8AM, we can just put this data in a different server and create an interface for it.
- Cons:
- Can be too much user hassle (some people might see it impractical to view in a different interface certain information)
- Pros:
- we might be able to integrate this in the dashboard as a feature.
- there are a lot of platforms that accepts deploying websites, rather than bots.
- Easier scalability in a way din.
