New Features
Same song replies
The nowplaying bot now recognizes when a track has been seen before and includes the post in the reply.
As our library grows we will have more and more people posting about the same song and it's a great way to meet new people with similar music tastes.
Implementation
The reply function now calls a new function addTrackReply(post: Post, track: Track, playlist: Playlist) to generate a reply.
const posts = await this._database.getPostsByTrack(track)
const text = posts.map(post => `@${post.author} posted this song on [${dateformat(post.created, 'mmmm dS')}](${post.getLink()})!`)
The posts variable is an array of posts that contain the same song. A string with a link to that post is created for each one.
The new database function getPostsByTrack selects all posts where track_id is the same
SELECT * FROM tracks INNER JOIN posts on postId=posts.id where spotify_id=?

Thank you for your contribution.
You were using array.forEach here https://github.com/alex-osman/nowplaying/commit/239f441831dac26d2205f0079e60bdfd83ee97b1#diff-7a4b922cffcef420a6101235ce72f371L98 and then changed to for loop is there any specific reason.
It is better to remove
console.log()messages and to use other means of testinghttps://github.com/alex-osman/nowplaying/commit/239f441831dac26d2205f0079e60bdfd83ee97b1#diff-7a4b922cffcef420a6101235ce72f371L141
When you are parsing its better to write some details about it

Thanks for reviewing @codingdefined. This is my first time contributing without the utopian.io website so I apologize if some things are not in the write place.
In regards to your first point, I changed the
forEachto afor loopbecause the for loop is synchronous, and because steem requires 20 seconds between posting, the asyncforEachwas causing issues when having to comment on many people's posts. This deserves a comment!Good points with (2) and (3) and I will update those to be more clear. Thanks for taking the time to review this!
Thanks for entering this week's #nowplaying!
