Owned bot is followed bot #232

Closed benghippware closed 7 years ago

benghippware commented 7 years ago

Quoting Steve:

Yes, a user automatically follows a bot that they create. There probably shouldn’t be a way to unfollow you own bot (although we haven’t specifically discussed this point) at this point… although possibly we revisit this once we start implimenting things like (moderation: something that’s over the horizon on the feature roadmap). So for now, yes you follow the bots that you create and you can’t unfollow them (because that wouldn’t make much sense today in terms of usability).

So ...

A user automatically follows any bot they create. At the moment, there is no way to unfollow an owned bot.

Need to check whether, and ensure, this is the case in the code.

Undecided whether this means the system does an automatic "follow" when a user creates a bot (ie. there is a follow relationship inserted into the DB), or just treat owned bots as followed bots (ie. no extra data need to be inserted). Up to developer discretion.

Also, this issue overlaps (in code) somewhat with 223 so they have to be sequenced properly, or done together.

Rather than duplicating the data to the subscribers table, I'll just automatically add the owner to any request for the list.
