@channel IMPORTANT If you’re seeding rows into your Sequelize-generated tables via MySQL Workbench/another editor:
Since you’re doing the inserts directly into the table rather than through the JS code, Sequelize doesn’t run/generate values for createdAt and updatedAt. This means that when seeding through your SQL editor you’ll need to provide values for each of these columns. The easiest way to go about that is to plug in CURRENT_TIMESTAMP as the value for each!
@channel A Few Announcements:
Priority #1 for today should be completing your MVP and deploying! Meet with your team today to discuss what necessary tasks are outstanding and determine who will address them. If need be, decide with your teammates what can be dialed back/simplified. Please let us know if you need help prioritizing/reassessing.
Please deploy to Heroku TODAY if you haven’t already. That way we can assist if you run into roadblocks!
Speaking of, remember that you will be using MongoDB Atlas as your production database. If this your the first time using MongoDB Atlas as a remote database, please plan EXTRA time to set it up and deploy following these instructions: https://dudenfsfft062-gsh7490.slack.com/archives/C0151KDB612/p1598995579063600
I’ll be sending out a presentation sign-up link later today.
No class Monday, but be prepared to present bright and early Tuesday morning!
Just a reminder that the TAs and I will likely not be available to help over the long weekend; it is my understanding that Learning Assistants should be available at least Saturday and Sunday.
During class/office hours today, we will be prioritizing project work and will not be available to help on homework issues. If you have outstanding homeworks, please utilize either your tutor, the help of your fellow classmates, or the Learning Assistant team.
As you reach out for help, one of us will head in ASAP. Remember that we won’t always have an instructional staff member available immediately upon request (more teams than available bodies)… if you need someone immediately, remember that the Learning Assistants are a great avenue for help!
If you have environment variables stored in a local .env, remember that you’ll have to add these values to Heroku upon deployment (they’re called ‘Config Vars’ in the Heroku universe.)
HOME STRETCH! I know you’re all exhausted… but you’re almost there! Keep up your spirits and celebrate every win.
