📂 Project: Dev
Session Goal
The session aimed to enhance and debug Python scripts related to file handling, email processing, and configuration management, with a focus on automation and efficiency improvements.
Key Activities
- Implemented a Python script to check file existence using the
pathliblibrary. - Developed a function to preview file contents, utilizing libraries like
textwrap,re, and[[json]]. - Created a script to process email-related Python files, identifying class and function definitions.
- Defined functions for text manipulation using regex, including extracting code blocks and specific text snippets.
- Read and analyzed configuration files, checking for specific variables and extracting email configurations for debugging.
- Outlined an initial implementation plan for email manager capabilities, using a two-pomodoro approach with a detailed workflow.
- Debugged Makefile execution and performed smoke testing to ensure functionality and resolve issues.
Achievements
- Successfully developed and tested multiple Python scripts for file and email handling.
- Established a clear plan for implementing email manager capabilities, enhancing automation processes.
- Identified and resolved key issues in Makefile execution, improving the reliability of automation scripts.
Pending Tasks
- Further refine the email manager implementation plan and begin execution of the outlined steps.
- Continue testing and debugging to ensure all scripts function as intended across different scenarios.
