I recently finished high-school and got a job in PHP Development. My employer told me to make a simple app wich OAuths you to your Discogs account and receive your library list. I got hired afterwards and now i work on a huge project which launches in less than 2 weeks. The day i got my job i havent worked with Laravel but ~ 3 days.
When you need to learn something due to the pressure, you'll learn faster. It's the same as learning a new language - I'd rather go to live in a country where it's mainly spoken that language and learn it due to the necessity than buy courses online. -
HI all.
I'm a novice in Web Development and I've made simple Web App I've just publish on Github. I just wanted to play a little to learn API manipulation and JavaScript's Fetch. So I decided to build an app based on Discogs' API for my personal use.
ShuffleBum is an app, which after providing a username in the dedicated field, retrieves all items of user's collection then randomize one of them before displaying it. That's help me to find my next listening records (I have 400+ vinyls in my collection and I always listenning too many time the same records ^^).
Because of Discogs' API construction, I must perform two fetch to retrieve all the items (Items are stacked at 50 per page). So, for my collection, there is 10 pages with 50 items. So, I used a foreach and a fetch to scan items and store them into an array.
But, this is really slow (800ms for each request), so for 10 pages, that's a lot. But I can't see how to improve those request. I can't do otherwise. Well, I guess.
Hope I will have so recommandation, hints, tricks.
Thank you.13
