Background:
To get even closer to the MVP, we have to block times on the RTI.
Implementation:
A couple of things changed in order to be able to make a successful api call that would block time in the RTI.
First, I changed the api url for logging in. It's now the dev url because we need to store that token to be able to make a request to the rti dev api.
I added persistence to the sessions store so that the Upcoming Bookings persist. But for some reason, this caused the SkyChart to return errors if the user refreshed the page. So, I added an action to the store that checks for the date and puts it in Date format. That prevents d3-celestial from returning errors.
I changed the times that the user can select so that the tst site is "available".
Lastly, to be able to make a POST request to the rti-dev api, there has to be a start time and an end time. To get the end time, I added a function that adds 15 minutes to the selected time. Right now, most of the request body is hard coded but the times aren't. This will be changed in the future.
