telescope VS Awesome-Adoption

It all starts with an old 400 error that was occurring in Telescope for a while now, first documented here.

Sattelite for the back end

There are a few places to start with this, one is that we have an issue in Telescope that relates to what I think is the session no longer existing in certain situations that results in a 400. This will give me an opportunity to take a look at Telescopes auth flow. I still am kind of unfamiliar with Telescope despite having been in the last OSD course. I know that we use passport SAML in Telescope however and in the new project we will use a different library called SAMLIFY.

The project is currently in the planning phase, and being part of the development team, I have been researching ways to add relevant bits of Satellite in the Remix Blues Stack project, we intend on using for Starchart.

As a good well-established project, Telescope provides a great environment setup guide, which covers most use cases.

It's been a year since I was supposed to work on Telescope for a class. When the war in Ukraine started in February 24th, 2022, I almost fully stopped contributing. Now, this year I am trying to do more, even though it's not my class anymore. Because I wish that I did more back then.

This week, I decided to setup Telescope locally. I had previously contributed to telescope and had set it up already. However, I faced some problems starting it up locally after a shutdown and startup sequence. This was hard to debug since there was no error message, just containers on docker would not start up even after waiting for several minutes. These problems would fix after a restart or just randomly after a few tries. So, I decided to go through the setup again.

Task This week, I try to revisit my setup for running the Telescope project, a single page website that aggregates blog posts.

This week, I finished implementing the feature for filtering out irrelevant feed URLs. Previously, I had added a function for the filtering but had to write the test for it.

The two PRs(1 2) mentioned last time were merged without a hitch. For the one that's about parsing Twitch channel feed URL, the maintainer and I agreed that there should be a follow-up issue opened to expand it to YouTube Channel(s). They also found another bug in the sign-up that should exist as its own issue about the RSS feed URL(s) having incorrect domain. For details about them, please see my last post.

Pawternity Hub is a Pet Adoption website where people can find local pets around their area to adopt. Started in a hackathon while brainstorming ideas to help the community, it was built with React and Bootstrap and uses the PetFinder API. Built by @NathanJoSuarez.

I have to say that looking for issues takes me forever. I want to further have more practice with JavaScript, so I head into this page to find any issues with JavaScript related. And I found that this project interested me, and the reason why is because it is a "full-stack" projects. I want to contribute to "small" full-stack project first, then further expand my knowledge, which enables me to build the fundamental.

The maintainer reviewed the PR very quick, he required some minor changes before merging my PR.

In the last blog, I have made a plan about how to add new feature to Awesome-Adoption project. Here are some tasks I need to complete in this week:

Picking two issues that challenged me more than my Hacktoberfest issues was not an easy process. The last challenge I left off on from Hacktoberfest was contributing a new provider to Notifire. Eventually I ended up choosing a Telescope issue and issue for a small opensource project.

In the final release, I decided to work on an external project named Awesome-Adoption which is a web application helping users find pets and adopt around their area.

I helped to improve image viewing in a React app called Awesome Adoption that I had previously worked on during Hacktoberfest. Importing the Carousel component from Bootstrap, I was able to make images more accessible on mobile. I am still working on ensuring the image size is correct for all.

#207 highlighted the need for a modal through which the user could edit their profile. Awesome-Adoption is a React based application and I decided to work on it for my 4th contribution towards Hacktoberfest
