Add a little newsletter utility #120

Closed sethetter closed 4 years ago

sethetter commented 4 years ago

This is a little utility for quickly getting started on a new newsletter. It pulls data from Meetup, the Jobs form, and the Volunteering form, and puts it into a markdown file in the content/newsletters/ folder.

@jcbwlkr thanks for all the feedback!

The zero value thing makes sense, I knew to do that, but forgot that the zero value of a slice is nil, not an empty slice. Thanks :D

I wonder if there's a better way to handle recurring events? Maybe Listing a link to the next, but then the little blurb about it repeat underneath as a sub-bullet?

For bot events we just put a disclaimer on there that said "recurring events only shown once". Maybe something simple like that here? I don't have a strong opinion

Meetup returns a blurb about it's recurrence schedule, I just included that with the events
