This script is similar to the existing one that schedules
report results to to be sent to a PM on a regular basis,
but instead takes a topic ID and posts to that. This way
people can have report results sent to a public topic regularly
too and not have to deal with PM recipients and so on.
This feature enables admins to create reports automatically based on a recurring schedule.
It introduces a new automation script that includes the new email_group_user field added to discourse-automation, along with a query_id and query_params to pass in parameters to the existing data explorer query.
The output of the report will be sent via pm (as a markdown table) to the recipients entered within the automation script.
The automation (supports individual users, email addresses and groups).
This commit updates the plugin to the latest guidelines, as shown in
discourse-plugin-skeleton, which involves moving a lot of the code to
dedicated files, use proper namespaces, use the autoloader as much as
possible, etc.
