# Architectural Decision Record (ADR)
|
|
|
|
This template document outlines the format for recording architectural decisions made during the development of the Open Mic Odyssey Bot. Each decision should be documented in a separate ADR file within the `docs/architecture_decisions` directory, following the structure below.
|
|
|
|
## ADR Template
|
|
|
|
### Title
|
|
|
|
A concise title for the architectural decision.
|
|
|
|
### Status
|
|
|
|
The current status of the decision (e.g., Proposed, Accepted, Rejected, Deprecated).
|
|
|
|
### Context
|
|
|
|
A detailed description of the context in which the decision is being made. This should include any relevant background information, constraints, and considerations that influenced the decision.
|
|
|
|
### Decision
|
|
|
|
A clear statement of the architectural decision that has been made. This should be specific and actionable.
|
|
|
|
### Consequences
|
|
|
|
An analysis of the consequences of the decision, including any trade-offs, benefits, and potential drawbacks. This section should also discuss how the decision impacts other parts of the system and any future implications.
|
|
|
|
### Example ADR
|
|
|
|
```markdown
|
|
# ADR-001: Discord.js over Discord.py
|
|
|
|
**Status:** Accepted
|
|
**Context:** Node.js and Python both viable. Team has stronger Node.js experience.
|
|
**Decision:** Use Discord.js for the bot runtime.
|
|
**Consequences:** Faster development velocity; ecosystem rich with community plugins (command handling, modals, components).
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Guidelines for Writing ADRs
|
|
|
|
- Be clear and concise in your writing.
|
|
- Ensure that the context and consequences are well thought out and provide enough detail for future reference.
|
|
- Use a consistent format for all ADRs to maintain readability and organization.
|
|
- Regularly review and update ADRs as the project evolves and new information becomes available.
|
|
- Encourage team members to contribute to ADRs and discuss architectural decisions openly to foster collaboration and shared understanding.
