Dec 1, 2024December 2024 — RetroAchievements/RAWeb monthly summary focused on delivering reliability and API capabilities. Delivered two major items with clear business value and robust technical implementation. Key outcomes: - Release Seeding Reliability: Harden ReleaseTablesSeeder to guard against missing 'integration' and 'emulators' keys and to seed only when the target releases table is empty, reducing seed-time failures and data integrity risks during deployments. - User Data APIs: Introduced API_GetUsersIFollow, API_GetUsersFollowingMe, and API_GetUserGameLeaderboards with input validation, efficient queries, pagination, and enriched user details to support richer user insights and partner integrations. Impact: - Improved data integrity and deployment reliability for RAWeb. - Expanded API surface enabling better user relationship visibility and per-user leaderboard data, driving higher quality features for partners and end-users. - Foundations for scalable data access and future API expansions. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - PHP/Laravel, Eloquent ORM, API design, input validation, pagination, seed data practices, and performance-oriented querying.
