feature request: list-all action

[mathowie]

I'd love it if there was a /gloss list-all feature that simply returned a comma delimited list of all defined words within glossary-bot.

This would just be a tweak of the "learnings" command, just remove the date limit to get all records and order alphabetically.

hmm...there's an undocumented random modifier to the learnings command (i.e. /gloss learnings random gets you 12 random selections from the database); it'd be easy to add an all as well.

This is now available as of 6ec9f58

You can now do the following:

• /gloss learnings for the default 12 most recently defined terms
• /gloss learnings random for a random 12 terms from the database
• /gloss learnings all to see all the terms at once.
• /gloss learnings 50 to see the 50 most recent terms.
• /gloss learnings 50 10 to see 50 terms, offset by 10 (so, terms 10-60)
• /gloss learnings today to see all the terms defined today
• /gloss learnings yesterday to see the terms defined yesterday

And you can combine parameters in ways that make sense.

You may have problems upgrading because I added a database migration earlier this week. Follow the instructions here:

or get in touch if you have any problems.

Whoops, I missed that you asked for alphabetical sort. That's now in as of 600be51

Use it like so: /gloss learnings alpha
So /gloss learnings all alpha will get you all records ordered alphabetically.

Thanks @tmaybe I got this all working for my team!
