AeroBot

  • 2 Devlogs

AeroBot isn't slacking off, it replies to messages 24/7! It is a fun and handy Slack Bot I built using Java Script. It can do a bit of everything, it pulls live orbital data for the International Space Station, it can tell the resistance of a resistor by its color bands and calculate your weight on other planets.

This project was vetted by Shipwrights and is now up for voting. You can ship again after making more updates.

Shipwright walkthrough

Ship #1

#Ship 1

  • I built AeroBot using JavaScript, it is a fun and useful bot that can pull live orbital data of the ISS, calculate the resistance of resistors using its color bands, and calculate your weight on other planets.
  • Something I found challenging was get APIs to work properly with my commands and in the process I gained very useful information and things I didn’t know about before

Commands of AeroBot

  • /aerobot-ping - Checks if the bot is alive and responding
  • /aerobot-help - Lists all the commands of AeroBot
  • /aerobot-iss - Pulls live data of the ISS including coordinates, speed and visibility
  • /aerobot-resistor [band1] [band2] [band3] - Type in the color bands of the resistor and get the resistance
  • /aerobot-weight [your weight] - Type in your weight and know how much you will weigh on other planets

Final Devlog

  • I finished my README and changed the ping response from Pong! to I am very alive!!!
  • Also added a bot image

First Devlog

What I did:

  • I set up the project and the repo
  • Added new commands
  • I started with some commands that used API but after trying for a while only my /aerobot-iss works so I ditched the ones that weren’t working and added some new ones

Whats next:

  • I am waiting for my Nest application to get approved and I have to complete my README then I will be ready to ship
  • Also, whoever wrote that guide is awesome, it helped me so much and is very clear, thank you!!!
