Lab 3 life!

 Hi everyone:

Welcome back! So Happy Thanksgiving first of all.

This week we had to do lab 3, which needed us to work on our Lab. Which lab? Wanna take a guess??

Yes! The famous URL-inspector one! 😀

We had to add two functionalities out of these four: add CLICOLOR functionality, or exiting with zero or non zero exit code, or adding a -j, --json, and/or \j flag, or adding  --all, --good, and --bad flags.

 

So firstly I chose to do the CLI COLOR one, since I already used the colors in previous labs and release 0.1. I added CLI COLOR env variable in a file called .env. In this one, the code will be displayed without colors if the CLICOLOR is defined as 0 in the .env file, and in regular colors as previously if the CLICOLOR is defined as 1. Below is the example of CLICOLOR=0

This is the example of CLICOLOR=1

 

It worked nicely! All the features had to be done in separate branches according to the issues assigned. This one was on issue-7 and with the same branch name. I committed this feature from issue-7 branch. The issue can be found here:

https://github.com/chawlapalak/Url-Inspector/issues/9

The commit associated with it:

63895ca

 I dont know why, out of habit or what, I pushed the code to my branch and went to github and  made a PR and merged it. Then I remembered, I was not supposed to do that. I reverted the changed and did it how it was supposed to be done.

Then I started with another feature of adding the exit code one, but then I changed my mind and made the final feature of using different flags to display the urls:

• --all        : flag to display all the URLs

 

• --good    : flag to display only good URLs

 

•  --bad     : flag to display only bad URLs

 

 

So this feature was added in my repo:

https://github.com/chawlapalak/Url-Inspector/issues/11 

Commit associated is : 1f6ecd9

 I committed this feature from my Issue-8 branch and moved to the master branch. I merged both my branches. There were no conflicts. I tested all the code before. I then pushed everything to master origin. Then I remembered I forgot to change the readme file. I made another branch for that as prof mentioned to not do anything on the master. Even for the readme update, I did the same procedure as the coding part. And everything was completed.

I had fun in implementing this lab. Although I never wanted to work or study again after this long weekend. But everything comes to an end, so did this weekend.

See you in the next blog!
