Feature : Enabling notification "NO UPCOMING CLASS"

[ritgit24]

If a user checks for an upcoming class and there is no class scheduled, the absence of any popup or notification may give the impression that the extension is not functioning correctly, leading to a poor user experience.

To address this, a “No Upcoming Class” notification should be displayed to clearly inform the user that there are no scheduled classes at the moment.

Hi I'd like to work on this feature,

Currently, when a user interacts with the "Upcoming Class" button when no classes are scheduled like on weekends or before the timetable is imported the extension provides no visual feedback. This can lead users to believe that the extension is unresponsive or broken.

Proposed Approach

I plan to modify the upcomingClassI() functionality in [background.js] to handle the following edge cases:

1. Weekend Handling:

   • Check if new Date().getDay() is 0 (Sunday) or 6 (Saturday).
   • Trigger a notification: "It's the weekend! No classes scheduled today."

2. End-of-Day Logic:

   • If a user has finished all classes for the current day, the script will iterate through the subsequent days of the week (cycling back to Monday if it's Friday) to find the very next scheduled session.
   • Notification Message: "You're all done for today! Your next class is [Class Name] on [Day] at [Time]."
   • Currently the next scheduled class is not shown if all the classes for the day have been completed.

3. Empty Data State:

   • Check if the timetable object exists in chrome.storage.local.
   • If missing or empty, trigger a notification: "No timetable found. Please navigate to Pingala and click 'Fetch Timetable'."

4. API Usage:

   • I will utilize the chrome.storage.local API to verify data existence and the chrome.notifications API to display the messages consistently.

Great @MushMan19 it looks good,
you can start working on the issues, once you are ready with few changes you can discuss and show your process via demo video or opening a pull request for a code review.
@ritgit24 and @this-is-mjk will help you with that.

just a few suggestions do not use any AI/llm-tools, as it will be like fooling yourself. As these easy issues are to help you get real life experience.

feel free to ask any doubts!
