[REQUEST] Send a smart notification via Slack DM for people submitting entries that don't meet minimum criteria

[etagwerker]

Before we start...:

• I checked the documentation and didn't find this feature
• I checked to make sure that this feature has not already been requested

Branch/Commit:

main branch.

Describe the feature:

As a person submitting entries
I do sometimes make mistakes
And then I submit entries that don't have a JIRA id or URL
And then I would like to see a notification in Slack at the end of the day

Problem:

As a Noko and JIRA user
I want to submit entries that include a JIRA ID or URL
So that I can have traceability to figure out how much time I spent on a JIRA story/task/sub-task/epic

Resources:

Once a day, we should have a scheduled job that reviews all the entries submitted by the team during that day. The task should probably run every weekday at 8pm PST.

The job would check that the entries are well formed. They should meet this criteria:

• They should have a description that is more than two words.
• If the entry doesn't have a #calls label, then it should have a JIRA ID.
• If the entry doesn't have a JIRA ID or URL, then it should notify the person in Slack

The notification should include a list of entries that look suspicious. Here is a template:

@etagwerker Hi Ernesto, I found these entries that are missing a JIRA ticket or ID: 

- Did work (3 hours) 
- Worked on stuff (1 hour) 

Please make sure that these entries are accurate. If they are all good, great! If not, please make sure you fix them so you don't get penalized for any of them!

You will need to use:

• Slack API: https://github.com/slack-ruby/slack-ruby-client

I will abide by the code of conduct

@etagwerker would you prefer the scheduled job implemented at the Rails level (ActiveJob), at the docker level (docker-cron or whatever), or an option c?

If ActiveJob - should I use a specific Queue adapter (is SideKiq still the default?) do the extra work to make the queue handler configurable?

[etagwerker]

@mcelaney Hey, I think cron would be the best way to go. It should probably run every hour and use the user's timezone to determine if "now is the end of day" for the person who should receive the notification.

Considering we have teammates all over the world (from India to Guatemala) I think that would be the best way to go... so I think it would be a rake task that will be scheduled once an hour.

One thing to keep in mind: The criteria will change in the future. So this is the first iteration of this feature. In our vision the criteria will start as a small set of rules but it might evolve into using ML to determine whether a time entry is good or bad.

Just bringing this up in case it makes a difference when you design the solution.
