Description
Problem
The current bug reporting system in the old DragonBot_host repository relies on sending messages to a specific Discord channel and storing bug information in a simple JSON file. This approach has several drawbacks:
- Lack of Persistence: Bug reports are lost if the channel is deleted or the JSON file is corrupted.
- Poor Searchability: It's difficult to search for specific bugs or track their history.
- No Status Tracking: There is no built-in way to mark a bug as
in-progress,completed, orwont-fix. - Cluttered UI: Mixing bug reports with regular channel chatter is inefficient.
Proposed Solution
We will replace the old system with a modern, professional workflow by creating a new /bug_report slash command that integrates directly with this GitHub repository.
User Flow:
- A user types the
/bug_reportcommand in any channel. - The bot responds with a Modal (a pop-up form) asking for essential information:
- Bug Title: A short, descriptive summary of the problem.
- Reproduction Steps: A clear, step-by-step guide on how to trigger the bug.
- Expected Behavior: What the user thought should happen.
- Actual Behavior: What actually happened.
- When the user submits the modal, the bot confirms the submission with an ephemeral message.
Bot Action:
- The bot will take the data from the submitted modal.
- Using the GitHub API, it will automatically create a new issue in the
xDDoubleTea/DragonBotrepository. - The issue body will be formatted with the information provided by the user, making it instantly actionable.
Benefits
- Professional Workflow: Leverages the industry-standard tool for tracking software issues.
- Persistence & Searchability: All bugs are stored permanently and can be easily searched and referenced.
- Status Tracking: We can use GitHub labels (
bug,in-progress,fixed) and projects to manage the entire lifecycle of a bug report. - Excellent Developer UX: Consolidates all development tasks within the GitHub ecosystem.
