camper-gitter-bot's Introduction

freeCodeCamp.org's open-source codebase and curriculum

freeCodeCamp.org is a friendly community where you can learn to code for free. It is run by a donor-supported 501(c)(3) charity to help millions of busy adults transition into tech. Our community has already helped more than 40,000 people get their first developer job.

Our full-stack web development and machine learning curriculum is completely free and self-paced. We have thousands of interactive coding challenges to help you expand your skills.

Certifications

freeCodeCamp.org offers several free developer certifications. Each of these certifications involves building 5 required web app projects, along with hundreds of optional coding challenges to help you prepare for those projects. We estimate that each certification will take a beginner programmer around 300 hours to earn.

Each of these 50 projects in the freeCodeCamp.org curriculum has its own agile user stories and automated tests. These help you build up your project incrementally and ensure you've fulfilled all the user stories before you submit it.

You can pull in these test suites through freeCodeCamp's CDN. This means you can build these projects on websites like CodePen and Replit - or even on your local computer's development environment.

Once you've earned a certification, you will always have it. You will always be able to link to it from your LinkedIn or resume. And when your prospective employers or freelance clients click that link, they'll see a verified certification specific to you.

The one exception to this is if we discover violations of our Academic Honesty Policy. When we catch people unambiguously plagiarizing (submitting other people's code or projects as their own without citation), we do what all rigorous institutions of learning should do - we revoke their certifications and ban those people.

Here are our twelve core certifications:

1. Responsive Web Design Certification

2. JavaScript Algorithms and Data Structures Certification

3. Front End Libraries Certification

Bootstrap
jQuery
Sass
React
Redux
React and Redux

Projects: Random Quote Machine, Markdown Previewer, Drum Machine, JavaScript Calculator, 25 + 5 Clock

4. Data Visualization Certification

JSON APIs and Ajax

Projects: Bar Chart, Scatterplot Graph, Heat Map, Choropleth Map, Treemap Diagram

5. Relational Database

6. Back End Development and APIs Certification

7. Quality Assurance Certification

8. Scientific Computing with Python Certification

9. Data Analysis with Python Certification

10. Information Security Certification

11. Machine Learning with Python Certification

12. College Algebra with Python

Legacy Full Stack Development Certification

Once you have earned the Responsive Web Design, Algorithms and Data Structures, Front End Development Libraries, Data Visualization, Back End Development and APIs, and Legacy Information Security and Quality Assurance certifications, you'll be able to claim your freeCodeCamp.org Full Stack Development Certification. This distinction signifies that you've completed around 1,800 hours of coding with a wide range of web development tools.

camper-gitter-bot's Issues

Remove web interface

This is not currently used by FCC and I also don't think it's completely working. I propose removing this.

Ability to limit commands to certain channels

As suggested by @SaintPeter. Could also lead to confusion about what features are available where, so this is a feature we may want to approach with caution, but it's worth putting up for discussion.

"Thank you" should be excluded from code.

If certain key words like "thanks" "thank you" appear in your code quoted between ``` ````, the camperbot still send brownies to people mentioned.

In-Chat Wiki (approach) Floods View

Camperbot's wiki invocation (via such commands as explain, help, etc.,) results in, potentially, large wiki pages that can contain: multiple lines, static (or dynamic gif) images and other media that disrupts the chat window (both on desktop/ and mobile platforms). Would it be possible to limit summary to 2-4 lines and provide the actual link to the wiki?

Free Code Camp style guide

The code in this repository should conform to the FCC style guide.

https://github.com/FreeCodeCamp/FreeCodeCamp/wiki/Free-Code-Camp-JavaScript-Style-Guide
https://github.com/FreeCodeCamp/FreeCodeCamp/blob/staging/.eslintrc

Explain fails for staticReplies

Trying to explain items in the staticReplies array fails with tried to linkify an empty item because there is no dashedName property, so the bot sends this:

Regular wiki item explain js closures

topicData {
  displayName: 'js closures',
  fileName: 'js-closures.md',
  data: 'example',
  dashedName: 'js-closures' }
Utils.linkify> link [js closures  [wiki]](https://github.com/freecodecamp/freecodecamp/wiki/js-closures)
Utils.linkify> link [read more about js closures on the FCC Wiki](https://github.com/freecodecamp/freecodecamp/wiki/js-closures)
GBot> out|  ## :point_right: [js closures  [wiki]](https://github.com/freecodecamp/freecodecamp/wiki/js-closures)
Closures are functions that refer to independent (free) variables. In other words, the function defined in the closure 'remembers' the environment in which it was created.
> tags: closure, javascript, js
:pencil: [read more about js closures on the FCC Wiki](https://github.com/freecodecamp/freecodecamp/wiki/js-closures)

staticReplies wiki item explain link

topicData try this [guide](http://www.freecodecamp.com/field-guide/all-articles).

I can try to take this one, but need feedback on how to handle. Link to the wiki home page for these, change how these are handled and not link to anything, something else?

Camperbot quiet thresholds

When the chat channel has high traffic Camperbot should be silenced from spamming mass body of texts to commit a CoC violation of spamming either on purpose, accidental or informational.

This could be also resolved with a prefix but combining both will keep the chat from being overloaded by a rogue Camperbot command.

Ex: If the chat is moving at a high rate, do not allow camperbot to spam more than 3 lines of text, no images, no gifs.

User not found error message wording

The bot currently says "could not find receiver for user". It should provide a better worded error message when it can't find a user for brownie points.

Automatic notification of FCC Challenges of members in a Gitter Room

We created a Room on GITTER and three of us colleagues have been added to it. In the "Activity" section, we would like to be notified of each other's completion of FCC challenges automatically. Can a "/notifyCompletion" command be created for this requirement?

Camperbot not working in LetsPair room

Was trying to give some kudos happy brownie points and camperbot isn't working.. So I tried some camperbot commands and nothing.

However, I'm not sure camperbot is expected to be in every room? I am just assuming he is..
if not, please ignore.

https://gitter.im/FreeCodeCamp/LetsPair

Camperbot is giving away points in unofficial rooms

https://gitter.im/FreeCodeCamp/Casual

I was given points in this chat room for hangouts and camperbot gave me points... please fix

thanks,
Tommy

Improve the 'about' command

I've got an idea: camperbot will use 🌟 :star2: for 1000 brownies and above.

Currently:

⭐ 2468 | @abhisekp | http://www.freecodecamp.com/abhisekp

Improved:

🌟 2468 | @abhisekp | http://www.freecodecamp.com/abhisekp

Add this whenever you want, this feature isn't necassary. But I still want it to be added.

Ask magic eightball questions

Right now it only responds with the command eightball. It be really cool to be able to
Oh magic eightball, Should I go to sleep?

I think we can scope it to lines starting with Oh magic Eightball. Thoughts?

Update relative links to absolute links in chatrooms

Recently, we have made a switch to relative links in the FCC wiki. The links to other wiki articles, or fragmented links within same articles - are now relative.

However, the content in the chatroom would require absolute links. We need to have camperbot parse the links before posting, and add a constant URL string ahead of all hyperlinks.

Double "Thank you" ?

This happened in chat:

@rphares wrote:

tax @darrylpargeter @darrylpargeter @darrylpargeter

@camperbot responded:

⭐ 714 | @darrylpargeter | http://www.freecodecamp.com/darrylpargeter
⭐ 714 | @darrylpargeter | http://www.freecodecamp.com/darrylpargeter
⭐ 714 | @darrylpargeter | http://www.freecodecamp.com/darrylpargeter

Bug? I don't know. But yeah, That is an easier way to spam in chat.
Please fix.

Add per-camper "Thank You" rate limit

No more than X Thanks Yous per minute/hour/etc. Also, maybe no more than ?10? per thank you. Don't award any points at all if there are more than a certain number of @mentions in a message?

We had an issue where someone came into the main channel and spammed thank yous A LOT. It took a long time for Camperbot to process them all and could have acted like a DOS to the API and Camperbot.

Camper bot - Wiki Migration

As discussed earlier with @Rafase282 in the chat:

Camperbot will no longer be able to suggest any of the wiki articles including:

Solution hints
Rooms
Articles
Any other help topic

Hence the course of action is now to:

Close all the open issues are pull requests with after a thorough audit.
Fix any issues relevant to chat and clean up this repository of the wiki related logic.
If it receives any command for wiki, respond with a migration message.
Deploy the bot.

Note : Its functionality to thank people will remain as such.
But any relevant help links should be removed or changed to forum links if available

/cc @FreeCodeCamp/issue-moderators
Refer freeCodeCamp/freeCodeCamp#9731

output from bot need to fix.

When i type wiki no repeat.

somehow it got missed bottom ```.

Need to make bot recover from API errors

When camperbot hit the cloudflare DDoS protection it stopped accepting thanks and would not recover without a restart. camperbot should be able to recover from an error like that.

Specifically exclude the word `tax` from the "Thank You" Regex

Because this is just silly:

example.config.json breaking new features.

It looks like copying example.config.json to config.json is breaking Travis CI tests. See PR from @abhisekp here (scroll down)

It's an easy fix. Move the example to config.json and update the readme. The code itself relies on config.json which is why the test fails.

It makes sense for users who don't need a custom bot user not to need to alter a config.json anyway.

Ignore wiki articles in repo

Duplicate messages when command is entered by 2 users at once.

The following happens when two campers call up the code formatting wiki article at the same time (a common occurrence when someone doesn't format their code with markdown).

Add Travis CI

Tests are passing and linting is good right now, so this should be a cinch to get set up. I'll play around with it tomorrow.

Camperbot doesn't recognize corrected bonfire's title.

I have noticed some time ago that there were changes in "Falsy bouncer" bonfire, it was named "Falsey bouncer" before.
Now people can't find these bonfire using command: bf falsy bouncer.
Changes in @camperbot code have to be made.

Submodules are not working correctly

CamperBot's code format help link broken

In the Gitter application, when I tried to paste a code, CamperBot's help link is this -
https://github.com/freecodecamp/freecodecamp/wiki/code-formatting

This should be changed to this - https://github.com/FreeCodeCamp/FreeCodeCamp/wiki/code-format

Replace star with brownie or other desert emoji when showing about

https://github.com/FreeCodeCamp/camperbot/blob/master/nap/lib/bot/cmds/thanks.js#L139

Logs Not Being Written

console.logs are not being written on the prod server. Need to look into this.

[Feature Request] Big Text Announcements

When there are known issues on FCC, we sometimes need to make "Big Text" announcements across channels. It would be nice if we could use the Camperbot to simplify this.

Command

!bigtext <Message>
We want it to be impossible to accidentally use. The output formatting might be pre-defined, or allow for the user to enter arbitrary text and formatting.

Broadcast Scope

We probably don't need it across every possible channel, more like just the "Core" help channels and main channel. We're need a list built in to the system.

Important Security

It would be critical that this command could only be used by designated admins. I'm thinking these would be hard-coded in to the codebase to prevent hijacking.

This could potentially also be limited to only being executed from a single room.

It might make sense to have a two stage process:

Define what you want to say
Camperbot echos it back in the current channel for review
!bigtext confirm to broadcast or !bigtext cancel or just do a new bigtext to update the message.

'help me' issue

words:

help me

trigger adding environment variables [wiki]
which is obvious error. please fix that, it's annoying how much time we have to see this window

Use github api to update wiki articles

Camperbot fails to give points if there is a bracket before a "thanks"

https://gitter.im/FreeCodeCamp/FreeCodeCamp?at=57edcc09d56b91170dfc75cd

Remove/Improve "Add a Wiki" response

Right now if you search for something using the wiki command and it's not found you get a message like this:

The URL is no longer valid because we turned off the main Wiki commits. Now you need to go through the PR process on the main Wiki.

Maybe we need an article on how to add articles? Anyway, we need to remove this message for now.

Camperbot to ignore `@/all` thanks

Add tests

Add testing suite using Tape

Remove livecoding chat room

Livecoding has officially been delisted

wiki-update script must not try to commit to history

Change reference to iojs in scripts to node

change wiki edit link

when you explain entries the footer edit link

goes here ->

https://github.com/freecodecamp/freecodecamp/wiki

eg
https://github.com/freecodecamp/freecodecamp/wiki/waypoint-bring-your-javascript-slot-machine-to-life

but maybe should go here?

https://github.com/freecodecamp/wiki

Tests shouldn't rely on live wiki data.

This makes some of the tests incredibly brittle. Our build is broken again because the wiki changed. Tests that rely on wiki type data should have data mocked for them.

User instance not valid error

Add duckduckgo Instant answer support

This functionality will give superpowers to our dear @camperbot

Explain Java

When you know someone bring up the subject of my worst enemy (java) and I "cleverly" think "hmmm if I type explain java surely I will get a page telling this nice person about the horridness of java" but instead I got a page on javascript!

This makes me very upset for two reasons:

It made me look dumb (very bad time in my life).
java != JavaScript

It would be nice if we could do something about this atrocity.

Love,
CEREBR4L

Promote CamperBot's github user to an owner on FCC org.
Create a command where camperbot will enter the text /ban @<someUser> in all our main chat rooms.
Checks if the user giving the command is a FCC admin (This will be a list on the server that will not be tracked here on the Repo)
