This is a massive rewrite, I would have preferred to do this in a more
incremental process.
Introduce EventStore class to handle loading events and questions from
Excel and Google drive sources. Presently the inner Event class simply
inherits from dict, but eventually a more structured Event class
containing multiple questions would be desired. The two EventStore
factory methods to load from Google drive and Excel files use a common
_import_pandas_dataframe() helper, if we could move away from using
Pandas it would reduce the server side dependencies. The EventStore is
now a singleton stored in a single server side variable, this allows
sharing between conversations.
Remove asked events logic from Player class and migrate it two a new
style (inheriting from object) class. Also removed inadvertent class
variables from Player class.
Rewrote Conversation class as new style class. Conversation class still
holds core game state, but now assigns all questions to players in
new_conversation() factory method. Class includes to_session_cookies(),
session_cookie_keys() and load_from_session() methods to facilitate
serializing in session cookies.
I didn't complete reimplementing all the game play logic. Specifically
the events are selected randomly with no consideration of the player's
age or if the event is duplicated. This should be trivial to
reimplement, and I've tried to leave TODO comments and pass necessary
information into methods.
Significantly refactored webapp route handlers. Setup handler now
supports an arbitrary number of players! Much of the game logic has now
been moved into the Conversation class. The game setup form now POSTs to
/setup.
