Leetcode Tracker v2.2

Overview

• A new /codeshare command has been created
• This command generates a new codeshare link, so users are able to click on it and join the same codeshare session
  • Codeshare links expire 24 hours after it being created, so Leetcode Tracker will also delete the message after 24 hours
  • Instead of using a timeout() approach, I decided to use the npm package cron to create a cron job that deletes the message after 24 hours of it being sent/created
• /help has been updated to describe the new /codeshare command
• README.md has been updated to reflect the new command

Leetcode Tracker v2.0

Overview

• Converted the bot framework to Discord.JS
• Changed bot host from Glitch to an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Computer Service "Virtual Machine"
  • Previously in version 1.1 I wanted to use NGROK along with an endpoint URL, but I found it too difficult to figure out how to get an endpoint URL connected to an open process in the virtual machine.
  • Thus the desire to change to Discord.JS as no endpoint URL is required to have the bot accept & read requests
  • NGROK along with the endpoint URL are no longer involved with this project
• Bot now responds to commands with embeds, instead of just text
• /help command now exists for users who are unsure of what Leetcode Tracker is, or if unsure about what commands are available and their functionalities
• Updated Technical Architecture image to reflect the usage of OCI, also added more colorful images to make it nicer to read

PR Links:

• Cold Start Problem, Privatize API Link, Remove Duplicate Function: #8
• Conversion to Discord.JS + getDifficulty() Change: #9
• Embeds, /help: #10

Leetcode Tracker v1.1

Overview

• There are no user facing changes in this update
• PR Link: #8

Changes

• The code is now being hosted on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Compute Service (Virtual Machine), so the cold start problem should be eliminated now as the bot will never go offline.
• Resolved dev bug where local development was not possible without the PING-PONG verification. I think it acts like a handshake type of ordeal
• API Links are removed and are now environment variables
  • The previous links have now been changed as they were redeployed on AWS
