progress journal for spring 2015 wmcn.fm development
####To-do:
| priority | items | notes |
|---|---|---|
| ASAP | finished! | |
| - |
should be easy, doable by the end of the week | |
| - |
almost complete, but has been tricky/overly sluggish; maybe change to only displaying show titles, AJAXing remaining info onclick? | |
| MVP for revamped site | - |
already started - done in 2 weeks? |
| - build API | maybe split into two steps - |
|
| - rewrite current routes with new API methods | viewing user(s), show(s), playlist(s), review/news/post(s), about, schedule, login/out, dj applications, staff applications; posting playlist, review, news, post; apply for a show/staff position; edit current user/show information | |
| - implement GUI for admin "meta" portal | add ability to flush dj applications; add ability to create a new "semester", de-activating all current users and shows; add ability to turn application on/off; add ability to update static text through an interface rather than redeploying code; add ability to mongodump list of all users to csv through a GUI rather than command line |
|
| - add page sidebars | upcoming shows, new playlists, most-read reviews, etc; also add ability to edit these lists through an interface | |
| clean up CSS - modularize, adjust padding, etc | ||
| clean up deploy methods | ||
| redeploy on non-personal cloud droplet | ||
| Hopeful additions to new site | - select shows from blank schedule displaying their availability | |
| - playlist XML-input autofill + typeahead suggestions | ||
| - add ability to sift through artist/song stats | maybe create a separate module that takes a snapshot of the artist coll every week/day, allowing for line graphs? | |
| - add cool landing page visual feature & 404 page | toggling "wmcn 91.7" colors onhover? make it parallax? |
