[Feature] Support from_time for the /tracking/<user_ids> endpoint about skylines HOT 7 OPEN

How do you debug the server ?

depends on what exactly you mean by that

What are the steps to install the python deps an run the tests ?

Hey @Turbo87 do you think this is a good idea ?

Would you merge this if I create a PR ?

The query parameter could be called from_time and take a UNIX timestamp.
It could be added to the endpoints:

• /tracking/latest.json
• /live/<user_ids>
• /live/<user_id>/json in complement of the already existing last_update.

The advantage would be that I don't have to pull 12h of track every time I retrieve positions from Skylines. It would save bandwidth and CPU.

What do you think ?

seems like a reasonable request. I'm a little worried about breaking the existing code though, so it would be great if you could ensure that we have decent test coverage for these endpoints before modifying them. 🙏

Thanks @Turbo87 I'll give it a try.

I am having troubles installing the Vagrant env.

On the first vagrant up I get the error default: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/jonathonf/python-2.7/ubuntu/dists/trusty/main/binary-amd64/Packages 403 Forbidden [IP: 91.189.95.83 80]. A second vagrant up goes through but I suspect I have missing dependencies.

Do you have updated instructions on how to setup the development environment and run the tests ?

Thanks,
Vic

I haven't run if for a while. It's possible that some dependency update broke it... 😞

welcome to the rabbit hole 🎉

I can try to investigate this.

I guess
pipenv install --dev and then ?

I have hacked a working config using https://github.com/nektos/act

Using the comand:

$ act -P ubuntu-latest=nektos/act-environments-ubuntu:18.04 -j backend

I should be able to make some progress with that.

Thanks for your help.
