1 00:00:00,300 --> 00:00:04,320 In this video, I want to make five improvements to the program. 2 00:00:04,770 --> 00:00:09,030 The first improvement is besides the title and the description of the news. 3 00:00:09,030 --> 00:00:15,150 We also want to add a link so that the user can click on that link and read more about that particular 4 00:00:15,150 --> 00:00:15,750 news. 5 00:00:15,780 --> 00:00:17,070 That's the first improvement. 6 00:00:17,100 --> 00:00:25,380 The second improvement is we want to show less news because currently there's 100 of them, so perhaps 7 00:00:25,380 --> 00:00:27,120 20 should be better. 8 00:00:28,110 --> 00:00:34,530 The third improvement is we want to show only news in English because currently we have some other languages 9 00:00:34,530 --> 00:00:34,950 here. 10 00:00:34,980 --> 00:00:37,110 For example, this news in Europe. 11 00:00:38,430 --> 00:00:39,510 Fourth improvement. 12 00:00:39,510 --> 00:00:41,520 We want to add the subject to the email. 13 00:00:42,330 --> 00:00:44,130 And fifth, improvements. 14 00:00:44,140 --> 00:00:53,940 We want to have the category more dynamic because currently Tesla is hardcoded here in the URL, so 15 00:00:53,940 --> 00:00:58,050 we might want to also have the possibility to show other topics. 16 00:00:58,770 --> 00:01:01,200 Let's start with the first improvement links. 17 00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:07,850 To add links, you have to go in here where you construct that string. 18 00:01:07,860 --> 00:01:15,810 So we add the title, we add a brick line, we add the description, and then we add two brick lines. 19 00:01:15,810 --> 00:01:18,900 So the two brick lines are between the different news. 20 00:01:18,900 --> 00:01:27,540 But before we add the two lines, we want to add one other break line. 21 00:01:27,540 --> 00:01:34,320 So plus backslash n then plus article. 22 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:42,880 You like that. 23 00:01:43,690 --> 00:01:44,620 So that should do it. 24 00:01:44,620 --> 00:01:48,130 But let me split this line because it's getting too long. 25 00:01:50,260 --> 00:01:51,430 So there as well. 26 00:01:52,670 --> 00:01:56,630 And I'll try the codes to make sure it works. 27 00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:58,910 And let's check the email. 28 00:02:00,260 --> 00:02:01,120 So there we go. 29 00:02:01,130 --> 00:02:10,039 We have links right now, the language to fix the language issue, you should add a new parameter to 30 00:02:10,039 --> 00:02:10,729 the query. 31 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:12,590 What is the parameter? 32 00:02:12,620 --> 00:02:15,640 Well, the URL is made of different parts. 33 00:02:15,650 --> 00:02:20,300 It does have the code part first, which is this one in here. 34 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:28,640 So let me show you the complete URL first as it was in the beginning without splitting it across multiple 35 00:02:28,640 --> 00:02:29,240 lines. 36 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:31,290 So that's the complete URL. 37 00:02:31,310 --> 00:02:35,100 Now this is a core part up to here. 38 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,070 So everything question mark. 39 00:02:37,250 --> 00:02:38,960 Then we have the parameters. 40 00:02:39,170 --> 00:02:41,480 So this here is a parameter. 41 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:45,280 Q is the name of the parameter and Tesla is the value. 42 00:02:45,290 --> 00:02:49,940 And then we have this symbol which separates the parameters from each other. 43 00:02:50,570 --> 00:02:57,490 So we have the sort by parameter which defines how the news will be sorted. 44 00:02:57,500 --> 00:03:01,220 And so these are sorted now by published date. 45 00:03:01,250 --> 00:03:06,080 And then we have this symbol again to separate the other parameter from the previous one. 46 00:03:06,710 --> 00:03:13,160 We have the API key, the name of the parameter and the value, which is this value here of the API 47 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:13,580 key. 48 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,750 Now we can add all the parameters of the end here. 49 00:03:17,750 --> 00:03:24,770 You want to write the end symbol and then language is equal to n. 50 00:03:25,910 --> 00:03:29,780 So the parameter name and the value which is English. 51 00:03:29,780 --> 00:03:32,940 So that's also a parameter of this API. 52 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:40,050 And you can find the parameters of this particular API in the news API dot org website. 53 00:03:40,070 --> 00:03:41,930 If you go to documentation. 54 00:03:43,300 --> 00:03:47,530 And you go to the end points and you go to the everything and points. 55 00:03:47,530 --> 00:03:51,290 And here you should find all the names for the parameters. 56 00:03:51,290 --> 00:03:55,630 So language is one of the parameters and you can pass these languages there. 57 00:03:57,300 --> 00:03:59,700 So we have sorted by as well. 58 00:04:01,570 --> 00:04:03,220 And other parameters, too. 59 00:04:03,250 --> 00:04:09,520 Q Which defines the topic, which is currently set to Tesla. 60 00:04:10,570 --> 00:04:15,060 So now let me prove the view here. 61 00:04:15,070 --> 00:04:17,230 So I'll split the string. 62 00:04:18,250 --> 00:04:27,690 And the parameters here and the next parameter after the symbol and the next one after the symbol. 63 00:04:27,700 --> 00:04:29,320 So this makes more sense. 64 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:30,760 It's more readable, I think. 65 00:04:32,020 --> 00:04:33,970 So if I run this code now. 66 00:04:36,190 --> 00:04:38,800 And I check the email again. 67 00:04:40,340 --> 00:04:42,710 I should now see only news in English. 68 00:04:42,740 --> 00:04:44,320 Yep, that's the case. 69 00:04:44,330 --> 00:04:46,520 So it's seems to be working. 70 00:04:46,790 --> 00:04:51,420 So let's go back and let's limit the emails to 20 only four. 71 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,470 That's all we have to do is go to contents article. 72 00:04:54,470 --> 00:04:57,740 So this is a list we're iterating over a list here. 73 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:02,560 And this list has 100 items. 74 00:05:02,570 --> 00:05:05,390 But if you use this list, indexing. 75 00:05:07,580 --> 00:05:08,030 Sorry. 76 00:05:08,030 --> 00:05:09,790 It has to be the first 20. 77 00:05:10,220 --> 00:05:13,880 So 0 to 20 or just up to 20 the same. 78 00:05:14,180 --> 00:05:19,010 This now should give us only about 20 emails. 79 00:05:20,970 --> 00:05:21,750 Let's see. 80 00:05:23,130 --> 00:05:24,750 Yeah, it's about 20. 81 00:05:25,380 --> 00:05:27,300 So that's fewer news. 82 00:05:28,190 --> 00:05:28,790 Next. 83 00:05:28,790 --> 00:05:35,720 The subject and the subject of the email is part of the body of the email. 84 00:05:35,750 --> 00:05:43,700 So as you might remember from the previous email lectures in the previous apps, we used to add the 85 00:05:43,700 --> 00:05:49,060 subject on top of message of the email body. 86 00:05:49,070 --> 00:05:58,100 So that would be subject a column, a space, and then write something for the subject such as today's 87 00:05:58,100 --> 00:06:01,070 news Plus. 88 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:07,270 A backslash, an operator, because that's the syntax. 89 00:06:07,280 --> 00:06:12,770 So the message should be something like. 90 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,730 Subject to these. 91 00:06:18,820 --> 00:06:19,720 News. 92 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:28,110 And then we have a brake line and there goes the body of the email, which is the news. 93 00:06:28,130 --> 00:06:30,530 So news number one, news number two, etc.. 94 00:06:30,890 --> 00:06:41,300 So you get the idea, I suppose, and I'll split the line in here and try out the code. 95 00:06:44,270 --> 00:06:44,720 Let's see. 96 00:06:45,050 --> 00:06:47,360 That's where the subject is. 97 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:48,650 So it's working. 98 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,140 Everything seems to be looking fine. 99 00:06:51,500 --> 00:06:57,870 Lastly, the last change I want to make to this code is to fix the heart coding issue. 100 00:06:57,890 --> 00:07:04,730 So when something is injected into a value, for example, here, Tesla is part of this string that 101 00:07:04,730 --> 00:07:07,340 is known as hardcoded. 102 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:12,170 So this is an hardcoded value to make this more dynamic. 103 00:07:12,650 --> 00:07:23,390 We could create a variable here, let's say topic and then you say Tesla here and then you convert this 104 00:07:23,390 --> 00:07:32,150 into an EV string and instead of Tesla there you have a placeholder and then you write a topic there. 105 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:37,450 But be careful here because this string is spread across multiple lines. 106 00:07:37,460 --> 00:07:44,240 So actually the F should be at the line where the placeholder is located. 107 00:07:44,420 --> 00:07:46,010 So it should be in here. 108 00:07:46,190 --> 00:07:48,770 So with that, you can run the script. 109 00:07:50,610 --> 00:07:52,650 And check the email. 110 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:54,950 And yeah, there we go. 111 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,060 That's still news about Tesla. 112 00:07:58,290 --> 00:07:59,670 So it's working fine. 113 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:05,530 So that gives us some more control over what we want to display here. 114 00:08:05,540 --> 00:08:12,290 So it's better to change the the variable name in here instead of modifying the value of the string 115 00:08:12,290 --> 00:08:13,010 itself. 116 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:19,070 So with that, we have done all the five improvements, so we are ready to commit the changes. 117 00:08:20,180 --> 00:08:21,950 So that's the 28. 118 00:08:23,270 --> 00:08:28,550 And you might want to mention here all the improvements add links. 119 00:08:30,180 --> 00:08:34,710 Specify language limits use. 120 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:38,299 At subject. 121 00:08:39,460 --> 00:08:41,919 And control the category. 122 00:08:42,070 --> 00:08:46,690 Now it's a better idea to actually make a commit. 123 00:08:46,690 --> 00:08:50,320 So whenever you want to make one single change. 124 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:55,660 So in this case, it would be better if we added the links as we did here. 125 00:08:55,900 --> 00:09:01,060 So after we did this change, we should have committed the changes and then we did the other change 126 00:09:01,060 --> 00:09:02,620 and we commit the other change. 127 00:09:02,620 --> 00:09:07,660 And in each commit message we only write that particular change that we did. 128 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:13,120 However, I'm not doing that because it would be too much for doing it in a video. 129 00:09:13,330 --> 00:09:16,390 Those would be too many pauses. 130 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,410 So that's something to keep in mind. 131 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:25,840 You want to commit whenever you make a change and then you test the program. 132 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:28,420 If it's working and if it's working, then you commit. 133 00:09:28,670 --> 00:09:28,960 Yeah. 134 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:29,980 So let's commit. 135 00:09:30,490 --> 00:09:32,110 And that's for this video. 136 00:09:32,590 --> 00:09:33,550 Thank you for following.
