User Library Feature #80

Closed Pythonian closed 2 years ago

Pythonian commented 2 years ago

Description

The library page of this project is where users will see Videos they have added to their Watch Later, History of watched videos and a Collection feature for videos.

@obafemitope50 Let's discuss via the comments how the logic for this task will pan out. I'll be dropping some ideas here too.

Reporting for duty sir. Do i need to download a library o django can handle all the functions.

Earlier after my last PR I ran into a merge conflict on my PC. I had to clone to a new folder. I hope that's not an issue

Pythonian commented 2 years ago

For now, you don't need to install any library. Django can handle most of the features here.

Pythonian commented 2 years ago

By cloning to a new folder, what did you do please?

obafemitope50 commented 2 years ago

All i did , was to clone the repo from github. to the new folder.instead of git pull. Git pull didn't work because I had merge conflicts. or maybe it did. But I couldn't leave that branch without resolving the issue

On the User library features. I'm believing there is already a function for "watch video" or "add to collection". Maybe we can create a trigger function in django. It saves the video id or URL to a like library. idk if that makes sense. Idont know how collections would work but I feel like it could work like the "watch later".

There is a video app in the backend project right?. Just let me know what you think

Im waiting for your feedback but to not be idle. For the WatchLater i Created -a WatchLater model containing 2 fields the content id and the username "user". -connected it to the admin.py,, so as to be able to handle it in admins page -a simple URL.py that is supposed to lead to where the watchedvideo is at. -I believe our template should have a "watch later button" , we can use an a tag to connect that to the URL of the watched videos with a pk of the id -A simple view.py that' , I'm not exactly sure how it'll go but. It should have an if statement. and redirect some also.
