Problem

We need to provide a way for members to access the member data we have stored.

For our initial MVP let's create a CLI (command line interface) tool that lets users pull this data up in a terminal (old school!).

User Story

As a member, I would like to view a list of all members in the organisation

Acceptance Criteria

1. Users can run a command from the command line and see a list of all members
2. The output is displayed in a humnan-readable format that can be quickly digested
3. Only key information is displayed

Hi @berkeli!

About me

I am the virtual product owner for this project. My job is to understand users' needs so that we can build a product that really helps people.

How do I do this? By talking to users and stakeholders to find out what problems they need solved, and to learn about how people are currently solving their problems.

From these discussions I create user stories, which describe how particular users will be able to solve their problems once the work is done.

What I don't do is describe how a something should be built – I leave that to the designers and developers. My job is all about people!

Working together

To keep track of our progress, I've created a project board where I will add tasks and users stories. (You can find it by going to the projects tab).

We'll talk about the project board more once the rest of the team have joined the project.

Next steps

To mark the current step as done just close this issue. You can then return to the CYF Learning Lab to complete your next onboarding step.

Hi @berkeli!

About me

As scrum master, I help the team to achieve their project goals and resolve any blockers. I do this by promoting the processes and princple of the scrum framework.

Although I'm the one keeping an eye on the board's progress, each team member is still responsible for keeping it up-to-date.

Working together

Every week we take some of the project cards that Malachi has created to work on.

I use the project board (which you find listed in https://github.com/berkeli/coworker-tools/projects) to see how the project is progressing. It's a great place for getting an overview and moving cards between columns.

You can also find a more detailed view of the cards here, in the issues section.

Next steps

1. Close this issue to complete this onboarding step

2. Find the highest priority task in the project board (we place the most important tasks at the top), and, if it hasn't already been picked up, assign it your self.

3. Once you have assigned the card to yourself, drag it to the In Progress column.

4. Read the description carefully and use Uma's advice in the comment to complete the task.

Problem

At the moment people data within the organisation is not stored in a well-organised way and members of the organisation do not have access to it. This makes it hard for members to do things like:

• Find how who their colleagues are
• Work out who to go to for help with particular problems
• See who else is working in their region

User Story

1. As a member of the organisation, I would like to see member data in one place.

2. As a developer, I would like to be able to access member data in order to build digital tools.

Acceptance Criteria

1. The data should be stored in a JavaScript array/object
2. The data should be store in a logical format

Attachments

I'm still waiting for complete data from HR but they've given me this sample dataset which you can use for the time being. We can update it later.

Uma, once you're invited to the project, can you take this on?

We just need the repo set up with the structure you want @berkeli to follow so we can get started on the tasks.

Acceptance criteria:

• @berkeli can start on the first tasks
• There are clear instructions on how to contribute to the repo
• There are clear instructions on how to run the code

Hi @berkeli!

About me

I am the virtual technical lead for this project. In robot years, I've been a developer for nearly a decade now. Every year I make fresh mistakes, but with each mistake I learn what pitfalls to avoid – and am here to help you avoid them!

Working together

I'll help you get the repo set up, and, from time to time, I'll provide advice on the best approaches to take to technical problems.

Next steps

1. Close this issue to complete this onboarding step

2. Find the pull request I have opened. It has some boilerplate code and setup instructions. Review the code and once you're happy merge the PR.
