I spent my time catching up on past projects, and I worked on the telematic project and created a drawing website that has rooms. These rooms would be used as prompts for people around the world to draw together from a Twitter bot account that would present a new prompt everyday. The Twitter account is @CollabDrawABCs and you can view it\u00a0here<\/a>. Also, here is my blog post<\/a> about the deliverable.<\/p>\n

The way I achieved merging a drawing app with an app that has rooms was by looking at template code. I used the Persistent drawing app code<\/a> as well as the Piano rooms code<\/a> as the basis of my project.<\/p>\n

I had some trouble in the beginning for going about merging rooms into the drawing app because the drawing app used a database to store the drawings. This made creating rooms different from the Piano rooms code, and made me understand lowdb and socket.io better.<\/p>\n

I initially thought about having a roomID be passed as arguments into functions for the server to understand and have the server store the data separately, but that ended up not working. After doing a couple of other approaches, I finally understood what needed to be done to get this functioning.\u00a0\u00a0\"\"<\/p>\n

This is where packages to the server get packaged. Each package has a roomID in the array and gets serialized and unserialized together with the line data and color data. This package then gets stored in the database by the server. \"\"<\/p>\n

This is on the client end. It receives a package and removes the last two elements which are room and color before creating the lines.<\/p>\n

These are the two main things I changed. There were other things that needed tweaking like drawings that are not stored and are being drawn live and changing clients to store roomID as well.<\/p>\n

I also created a twitter bot to tweet out prompts each day. I used cheapbotsdonequick, which basically handles everything for me.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It uses Tracery which basically allows you to replace a variable in a base line of text with random other pieces of text. After that I set it to tweet once everyday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
