Documentation on US Government Coverage

This guide covers what the US Government Coverage is and how it works.

What is it

US Government Coverage is a project that generates GitLab Pages to display coverage information for the US Government Support team.

Every 4 hours via pipeline schedules, the bin/generate_pages script is run, which does the following:

Reads Support team information via the Support Team project
Removes all non-US Government support engineers from the Support team information
Creates variables storing the list of people per shift (1st, 2nd, 3rd)
Fetches Google calendar events for the next 365 days
Analyzes the events (separating them into variables for later parsing)
Generates event objects (that will work with the FullCalendar JS library)
Updates templated HTML and JS files

The end result are modified files in a public folder, which is then deployed via GitLab Pages.

This is a living section that will have items added to it as needed.
