For the past few days I've been working on Bug Safari, which is a Python <br>
script that gets statistics for Plasma bugs and sends a report to the <br>
#plasma room on Matrix, which is one of the dot points for KDE's <br>
Automation goal.<br>
<br>
I've now got the script uploaded to Invent at <br>
<a href="https://invent.kde.org/bbonacci/bug-safari" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://invent.kde.org/bbonacci/bug-safari</a> for anyone to look over, make <br>
improvements or implement.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Thanks for this, I have just had a quick look over the code and it overall looks pretty reasonable, and also follows best practice of setting it's own user agent.</div><div><br></div><div>One small suggestion would be to add some small sleeps in to ensure that the server endpoints don't get hammered by your requests.</div><div>While the script by itself is fairly innocent, if similar scripts were added for a series of other channels and they all ran at the same time, this could result in a rush on the server that could make it inaccessible to normal users (or at the very least impact responsiveness).</div><div><br></div><div>Adding some sleeps (ideally for a random number of seconds as people tend to pick the same cron times to run stuff on) will ensure this doesn't become an issue.</div><div><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><br>
