peoples-bot's Issues

Beach should give a heads up before session is done

When a beach session is awaiting a reaction, it will wait a certain amount of time before timing out. We should send a heads up notification before the await is over.

Configurable beach time

We should have a way to have beach time be configurable.

Update repo description

Is this still a covid bot?

Delete original beach message after deleting

Right now, when the chat history is deleted, we do not delete the original message that the bot responds with. This allows the users to continue reacting, thus triggering the delete messages action.

We should delete the bot message when a reaction is done.

Beach sessions are lost during a deploy

When a beach session is awaiting a reaction, if a deploy goes out or the application is re-started, the await is killed and it is no longer monitored. This causes the original await to never be fulfilled.

Rename bot to something more generic

Beach should be cancellable only by the person who initiated it.

Add debug information when no results

When no appointments are found, we currently don't display any helpful information.

This might be the result of a bad request, a backend issue or something else. Ideally, we can re-post the parameters that were specified and provide a link to the actual site.

Update documentation

Implement a lock for the beach command per channel.

When the beach command is invoked, there might be a chance that the command is currently active in the channel. We need to ensure that the command can only be invoked once per channel, while a sandy conversation is going on.
