`README`: Add set-up instructions #12

Closed patbl closed 3 months ago

vercel[bot] commented 9 months ago

@patbl is attempting to deploy a commit to the Sage Team on Vercel.

A member of the Team first needs to authorize it.

I don't have much experience with Node projects so maybe some of the steps are not quite right.

patbl commented 9 months ago

Also, are there any easy-ish things I could work on? I'm interested in contributing, but the open issues seem to be about big things that would benefit from familiarity with the code base.

Hi Patrick, thanks for contributing! For my dev db, I use a free Supabase database and set the DATABASE_URL in .env accordingly. I haven't tested the postgres steps, if it works for you then happy to merge this in.

Depending on what part of the project you're working on, you may need some other .env variables (e.g. if you're working on the Slackbot you'd need a SLACK_CLIENT_ID, SLACK_SIGNING_SECRET, etc). But this should be fine for now

Definitely! A few small things people have requested we add to fatebook.io that I would be excited to see added, if you're interested:

  1. Show the number of resolved questions for each 10% interval on the calibration chart. Maybe when you mouse over one of the nodes we could add it to the tooltip
  2. Exponentially weighted calibration chart: weight more recent predictions more heavily when calculating the user's calibration, so that you can improve it over time even with a long track record
  3. In the "make a prediction" box (in the component), you can add tags using hashtags, e.g. "Will trump win the election? #politics". However, currently this is not shown by the UI at all, and you have to type the full tag name. Ideally, when you type #, you'd see a selectable list of your existing tags, and as you type it would refine the list, similar to autocomplete in VS Code. This is probably a bit more work than the (1) and (2)

Thanks! Sorry for taking a while to get back to you.

Looks like this has since been implemented!

That's a good idea.

I think I'll start off working on a hashtag bug, which is that hashtags are extracted even if there's no space before the #, so for example if you made a prediction that was

it'll think #issuecomment is a hashtag, and the saved prediction text will be

This is pretty minor but I want to start off with something easy.

Great spot, thank you! Feel free to ping me here or on Discord ( https://discord.gg/mt9YVB8VDE) if I can help with anything. (It'd be useful for me to hear about friction/confusion points for new contributors!)

Thank you @patbl for this! I've verified that these setup instructions work - I made some tweaks (added a shared OAuth credential so devs don't need to set up their own) and added this in d3b2fbc.
