@Polyrad hope you feel better buddy

Thanks, I feel sooooooo much better now! Only a slight cough and the occasional sniffle ?

ahaha damn covid started ramping up here in the last week pretty bad, so they closed a lot of the buildings on the reservation which means I only got my work for that one week lmfao

ah well, probably back in when it opens. probably.

Evening everyone. A bit sad that its already Sunday but the upcoming week shouldn't be too exhausting which is good.

Finally got into F1 as well after watching the race earlier today. Can't wait to follow it a bit more closely from now on.

Sorry for the lack of activity from me today gang, I've been hard at work extending Xenforo's API to create our own endpoint to power the Pokedex. For now it mostly just combines the Showdown & Oakdex APIs, but it'll be written in a way that makes it easy to add new values - currently the only ones I've added myself is isFakemon, which specifies whether it's an official Pokemon or a fan-made one like some of the custom Showdown pokemon, and I've also added the evolutionTree value too.

The reason for this really is that beforehand we were making a bunch of CURL calls to fetch data for the Pokedex, which kept spitting out 503 errors. Additionally, there's a lot going on in the Showdown addon to try and parse stuff like movesets, evolutions, etc, each time you view a Pokedex entry, so having everything combined into a single endpoint is super convenient. This endpoint will also be made public so other developers can fetch data from it.

Up next is including move info in the output, and then rewriting some of the Showdown addon to fetch data from our API rather than a bunch of other places.

If there's anything you think is missing from the Pokedex now would be a good time to say it!

Evening everyone. Quite a productive Friday and Saturday so very happy with that.

Looking forward to enjoying some downtime tomorrow since it's my mums birthday and also F1 day!

Evening everyone. My last weekend where I can just relax and not do much because Uni is starting again from next week.

Fulfilling my first hired job today :^) I'll be migrating a forum over from MyBB to Xenforo, should be easy enough with the hardest part just being all the waiting around.

I played some Resident Evil 4 yesterday, some Final Fantasy VII this morning.. it's been a decent gaming weekend! ?

I probably won't have much more time today though, I'm going to a Christening this afternoon and we're meeting up with my ex in-laws for a meal later - sounds weird, but we're still pretty close.

 

[Ash]

Afternoon everyone. It's a shame that the weekend is almost over but I guess it's going to be like that until we can guess those amazing 4 day weeks.

Looking forward to the Chelsea game tonight

I'm sorry but this thread just isn't sticking well enough, what with the shoutbox, I've decided to demote it from being a sticky thread. :v
