lita-debug-queue

A queue for tracking users who need debugging help with per-channel management.

Add lita-debug-queue to your Lita instance's Gemfile:

gem "lita-debug-queue"

lita-debug-queue expects four things to be present for correct operation:

1. An :instructors authorization group containing admin users. If you want TAs to also be able to modify (but not clear) the queue you should add them to an :assistants group. The Slack admin can message Ironbot to add users to an authorization group as follows: auth add nick.name instructors. Note that the Slack admin IDs should be set in the lita_config.rb file for your bot. You can look up a users Id with users find nick.name.

2. A debug_queue.classrooms config option containing a Hash that maps instructor mention nam es to classroom channels.

3. A debug_queue.schedule config option containing a Hash that maps from days of the week (as from DateTime.now.strftime("%a")), to ranges of hours in the server's time zone.

4. A debug_api.passphrase config option which is just a static string. A way to disable the API will be available in a future release.

• debug me - Put your name in the queue for debugging help.
• debug nvm - Remove your name from the queue for debugging help.
• debug queue - Show the current queue for your class.
• debug count - Count the number of people waiting for help.

• debug next - Notify the next student to be helped.
• debug drop NAME - Remove the student with NAME from the queue.
• debug clear - Empty the queue.

Better docs coming soon. ... Ish.

AUTH: Every request to the API must include a Query Param ?passphrase=FOO. Check with your local debug queue admin.``

In the event that an invalid room is supplied or incorrect authorization is provided, a JSON object containing an error key will be returned. All correct API requests will result in a response with queue and message keys.

GET /api/:classroom/queue

PUT /api/:classroom/queue

DELETE /api/:classroom/drop

PARAMS: Drop requires a student query param with the mention name of the student to be removed from the queue.

DELETE /api/:classroom/clear
