The update includes modifications in the lectures' order by start_time in course model. The lecture duration is now correctly calculated by minutes instead of hours. Additionally, in the lecture view, an online indicator is added for each lecture and popover is implemented to show the lecture start and end times..
A new method has been added to the `CoursesController` which allows admins to fill default live video URLs for online lectures that don't have one. This feature is accessible via a button on the courses admin page. The routing for this new action has also been set up.
In the attendance tracker view, the total times for preparation, in lecture, and review have been humanized for better readability. Also, total time spent on lectures for each week has been included for a quicker overview. A helper method 'humanise_duration' has been added in application helper to convert time into a more readable format. Changes have been done in 'lecture' model for calculation of total time.
The commit introduces notable changes to the Lecture-Recording model relationship in our application and adds a new cancellation status to Lecture model.
Models Lecture and Recording previously had a belongs_to :recording and belongs_to :lecture relationship respectively. However, this setup was not reflecting the correct relationship between these two entities in the actual educational setup where a lecture can have a recording but a recording is always of a lecture. Thus, the relationship has been revised to has_one :recording in Lecture and belongs_to :lecture in Recording models.
Also, added the ability to mark a lecture as "cancelled". This addresses the requirement of representing real-world scenarios where lectures are sometimes cancelled. This cancellation status is then reflected in the Attendance Tracker view and is also handled in the ScrapePanoptoJob.
Additionally, new changes are reflected in the application's schema, migration files, admin dashboard, and stylesheets (for displaying cancelled lectures).
Modified code to remove 'status' field from lecture's table and added 'event_uuid' field. Also refined the 'start_time' field in recordings' table to handle datetime instead of strings. Further, made minor changes in scraping jobs and seeding logic. Implemented these changes to allow lectures to be associated with calendar events and streamlined various fields.
