Introduction
Since we will be using data from the PuzzleTime API, we need to make sure that this data is up to date. This isssue here is a suggestion how it could be solved. The idea consists of a nightly job that runs every day (or night I guess) which fetches the data of the PuzzleTime API.
This data would then be mapped into our persons and following keep the persons up to date. These changes will result in PuzzleTime becoming the source of truth in the dedicated person details.
Things to consider
Handle the update and creating of people correctly. Which means Members need to have some kind of id, so they get updated correctly. This should already have been done in #735 This id prevents the job from creating a new member with the same name but different user data. It also prevents the job from creating a new person when someone is getting renamed (like married as an example). If a new member is added the delayed_job recognizes that and creates a new profile in PuzzleSkills.
ToDo
- Create a nightly job that updates the user data in the skills application by fetching data from the PuzzleTime API
- Make sure to handle update and create correctly
- Tests
