Staying at home during the corona virus pandemic is very boring.. And I have already spent quite a few days with PC(basically just playing games). One day I just didn’t want to play that game anymore, and wondered what else I could do. All in a sudden the idea of starting this project came to my mind.

Technical things during the development(I guess?)

All right, as we all know the Pterodactyl Panel API can just do limited things. And the way which how it works is very straight forward. So my real challanedge is how to make sure the bot has a good user experience. As you can see, the current interface isn’t something very great.

简介

有时候, 我们需要频繁的去查看是否有新消息的原因在于这个网络服务没有提供一个合理高效的提醒服务. 通过移动设备和UWP, 我们已经可以接收到很多来自网络服务的提醒通知, 但这还远远不够, 总是有那么一些提醒服务是你不会去完全信任的, 它们总是给用户推送一些无用的低信噪比信息, 而我们只想要我们想要的信息.
为了解决这个问题, Gloria 被设计为一个化被动为主动的信息抓取扩展程序, 它将主动从你指定的网络服务上抓取数据, 正因如此, 你可以更高频率地获取数据, 同时自由的决定通知内容, 达到信息的最大化利用. 我们的主要抓取对象是网络通知, 所以我称之为”网络通知聚合器”.

这是开发者对于 Gloria 的介绍。听起来是不是特别高级?其实这个就像是一个只能拉去 RSS 消息但不内建阅读组件的 RSS 软件。当然你可以 argue,这个软件比一个 RSS 阅读器可要强大的多了,拉起信息可以不依赖网站提供的 RSS 订阅。
