Trivia: Web object with the current results

[baldengineer]

Create a web endpoint with JSON string that returns a list of the usernames and points so far.

Initially, the OBS web object will be built locally. (and eventually moving it to the bot.)

Related to #175 I plan to say: "Let's see the trivia results!" There I'll show the leader board. At that point, I'll hit the !trivia winner command. So that gives me some time to build in the top 3 on-screen.

I've started playing with this, but I think we need to figure out the scoring system we want to use before I go too far, because depending on the range of possible scoring, can depend on who's on the leaderboard.

Moving to May, so we can have a discussion on scoring system before proceeding with this one.

Use to display results from mqtt topic

Appears the command server (the interface between the webserver and the bot) is currently a one way connection, and unable to extract data, at the moment. I have reached out to the framework creator to see if I'm correct.

[tisboyo]

So it's not looking like there's an easy way for the webserver to retrieve info from the bot directly... Alternatives

• Store the scoreboard in the database and retrieve it that way
• Figure out how to get the data from mqtt, but if it's just looking for json data, may not be practical.
