last devlog! i'm now using the discogs api to display album images.

attempted again to fix flight updating intervals. let's see how it goes!

implemented rolling presences! so easy with sern!
this will be my last devlog here, i haven't got that much time to finish it fully :(

after a month long hiatus, i'm shipping hctv bot accounts! for now, they can only do actions on the chat, but this will be expanded soon!
this will probably be my last devlog, and just wanted to thank everyone who has been following along. hctv will continue to be developed and new features will be added regardless of a general ysws happening or not. stay tuned on #hctv!

figured out how to write database migrations! using diesel for this project.

added star rating to reviews

added a command list! (now shipping trust)

moved to cloudflare astro ssr and changed branding!

finally, working on my website! it has been dormant during the summer, but I aim to write some stuff and improve it from now on.
this devlog adds some content to the about page and removes old blog posts from the template.
don't be fooled by this project using an astro template, though! i'll heavily modify it

wanted to make a cool website to register
for now, i've made the welcome text and the cookie beat! a lot has to be done

final devlog! wrote a readme, and kept troubleshooting build errors. i've concluded that my hate towards nixpacks is real.
have a good night, i guess!

probably last devlog before ship. been setting up multi guild support.

got replies going! also forgot to disable mentions!

day 2, figured out downvoting and added the post author to the database for responses

added upvoting! users are sha256 hashed!

added the ability to nuke messages! it basically deletes it from the database pf

handled approve buttons and some other small changes (like deleting the sent message)

got modal and database writing done! now i just have to handle buttons and get it sent to a channel. getting closer!

project init, prisma database schema writing, quick confession logging!

hi! this is NIC - my (eth0) personal discord bot! it'll be a small rust experiment.
for now, i've figured out how to send a message on program start and start an http server!

this devlog includes some updates and other stability fixes:
- default unicode emojis are now supported on the chat!! so now you can use stuff like :skull: with no problems.
- fixed the fact that sentry didn't install server side stuff automatically and had to do it manually :heavysob:
- fixed dependency bug that led to not being able to change stream titles or onboard (didn't notice before AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA)

in this hour of work, i've made a few changes:
- improved stream latency (reverted and improved prior latency changes)
- added a 24/7 flag for channels. this will disable notifications on #hctv-streams
- fixed some misleading information when getting a dm after following someone.

used fumadocs on a separate monorepo package, then wrote all documentation! turns out, next.js loves to not work. i afterwards had to move everything over to starlight, where it was easy to get everything going. it is now deployed under https://docs.hctv.srizan.dev!

i created a new fumadocs website and then tried to use openapi and scalar to make api endpoint documentation. turns out, it's not the best! (at least without me using AI to help me out pf)
so, i'm moving to manually documenting each endpoint. hopefully it's easier

implemented a new onboarding page. i also tried adding a prometheus metric endpoint but that won't happen until i finish other stuff first!

hctv slowdowns were actually insane! i saw postgres connections reach limits so what i did for an hourish was set up pgbouncer, which was pretty hard, since the docker image i was using didn't have the best configs.
afterwards, i found that the culprit was this code i implemented, which was HORRIBLE in terms of performance, so now it's way neater and uses cool stuff such as redis transactions.

fixed some documentation and fixed hosting

after a month long hiatus, i've shipped one of the best updates! (and forgetting about devlogging in the process :nooooo:)
chat improvements have been one of the cooler things i've wanted to do for a while, so here it is! a quick recap:
- slack emotes
- message history
- rewritten viewer count based on messages
- multiline messages
- obs chat browser view without authentication (as in, user authentication, no unauthed websocket lol)
probably more coming soon?

anyways, keep hacking!!

i've added a private invitation system (since i'm broke and can't pay for flight updates) and now flight selection uses the airport's local timezone! (finally, no conversion from local time to whatever it is in UTC :heavysob:)

for my first ever videogame, i'm porting power hungry pets!
this first feature is basically drawing cards, but they are not still from the real deck. that'll be worked on tomorrow!

moved over some minecraft related commands (more to come) + bonzify

worked on a link shortener command and moved over the AI channel. this took a while since i basically rewrote it.
it's also not streamed now since it uses groq which is really really really fast!

more flight update fixes and trying to automatically create accounts for another api, to then find out that some features aren't implemented in that api. i'll stick to flightaware for now

flight updates implemented! this was easier than i expected since i already had most of the logic in mind. i was working on this before, hence the small time since update gap i guess.

hey! this is the beginning of the pilot bot development.
i've been implementing the /flight-add command, but had to change apis in the middle of development since flights were innacurate.
it's basically finished now, so i have to track flights now. let's see how it goes!

i've made a hangman game from scratch, including a command to return a single word from the spanish dictionary. i acquired a 130mb csv file with spanish words and converted it to a sqlite file for all this.
currently, the hangman game only supports 6 letter words.

directly ported the rock paper scissors game over. thought it was broken, but i'm just bad!

did a /chiste command

wrote a program in rust to write all hack club workspace emojis in a json file. this is because i'm adding slack emojis to the chat.

got chat history working!

had to go touch grass so today i did basically nothing, just fix the builds

i've set up a github codespace and added a new version notification system, including showing the latest commit in the user tab. it doesn't work in prod for some reason, though! so i have to look into that.

added cursivify, image classification and made suggestion code cleaner

added auto generated A command + database migrations from mongodb to sqlite

added google command (peak discord bot yeah ik)

• added a dropdown on the channel settings page
• redirects /settings/channel to personal channel
• phased out old edit livestream dialog
• shared nuqs query parameters (?tab=)

finally, profile pictures can be changed!

i may or may not have overengineered a description markdown editor

now you can enable and disable stream notifications globally in the settings, in case you're testing something and don't want to annoy anybody, as an example.
also, the tabs are controlled through nuqs and the tab is stored through it. (so there's now ?tab=general inside the url)

adding channel managers actually works now!
filtering the combobox really got me bugged out, but i ended up figuring everything out

hey! this is hctv - the streaming service for hackclubbers.
i forgot that there were updates on this program! currently, i'm working on being able to create more channels (on the frontend, the backend already had everything prepared for this)
here's a sneak peek on the settings page. you'll be able to edit general settings and add other people as channel managers!
