Integrate Data

To use this data, simply query one of the following endpoints:

• Dailies - https://dailydoots.com/dailies.json (updates 30min after midnight UTC+0)
• Doots - https://dailydoots.com/doots.json (updates once a week Fridays 2pm EST)

Contributing

Most of the content resides in data files withing _data. If you'd like to update your user profile edit/add an entry in _data/profiles.yml or send a DM to u/hanniabu on Reddit.

Weekly Update

1. Update the leaderboard by uploading the RES file from u/jtnichol to this tool, copying the resulting JSON output, and saving it to _data/doots.json replacing the existing contents.
2. Update podcast guest list in _data/guests.yml, remove or comment out old items if necessary
3. Update announcement list in _data/announcements.yml, remove or comment out old items if necessary
4. Update events list in _data/events.yml, remove or comment out old items if necessary
5. Update the weekly roundup:
   1. Create a .md file under weekly/historical named after the weekly roundup date in yyyy-mm-dd.md format
   2. Copying the contents template (weekly/_template) into this new file
   3. Update the metadata at the top
      • If there is no podcast then just enter the date and weekly_link and leave the rest empty
      • weekly_link should have no subdomain specific, so reddit.com instead of old.reddit.com or www.reddit.com
      • date follows yyyy-mm-dd format
      • episode is just the podcast episode number, do not include a #
   4. Copy over the weekly doots
      1. For each item copy the item text and paste into the <summary> {{paste here}} </summary> tags
      2. Copy the comment links into the [View on Reddit →]( {{paste here}} ) field
      3. View the comment under old.reddit.com using the RES extention to copy the comment "source" (markdown) and paste the in the area below "View on Reddit" and before the closing </details> tag
      4. Bare links (non hyperlinked) need to be wrapped in < {{link}} > to properly be converted to a hyperlink
      5. You'll need to copy the templated <details> ... </details> sections for each of the weekly doots, there's a separate template for single and double doots (double doots means it references 2 comments)
      6. Do a find/replace to replace all instances of old.reddit.com or www.reddit.com with reddit.com
