I'm really on the fence about using HTTP 5xx responses to indicate any sort of application-level information. Currently any time a client gets an HTTP 5xx error, it can assume something went wrong with the *transport* of the request, such as a gateway timeout.
In REST APIs, HTTP 501 indicates that the HTTP method itself is unsupported, which in this case is a POST request. Micropub is not a REST API though, so I would be worried that a 501 could inadvertently indicate to a client that a POST request is not supported.
Can you find examples of other non-REST APIs that use HTTP 501 for this feature? I wouldn't want to recommend 501 unless there are existing examples of other non-REST or RPC APIs using it. -
This doesn't feel as important anymore now that I am able to create issues and comments by posting on my website first. I don't even know how I would want to represent the other kinds of activity on my site.

Add Micropub tag query support
Provide a Micropub query method to return tags, either frequently/recently used, or by matching already entered text. See also: https://indieweb.org/Micropub-extensions#Querycontinue reading... -
Query the micropub endpoint for tags as the user is typing
If the Micropub endpoint supports tag queries, then Quill should ping it as the user is typing to help autocomplete tags.continue reading... -

Support native generation of a podcast feed from a tag page
Provide some mechanism to turn a tag page into a podcast feed. Maybe by adding a special property in that tag's pinned post.continue reading... -

Throttle salmention sending
Currently if a post receives a bunch of comments/likes in a row (such as OwnYourSwarm backfed comments, or bridgy backfed likes), my site will send out salmentions for each. There should be some sort of rate limit in place to avoid sending a bunch of webmentions in a row to the same targets.continue reading... -

Fix post channels after a micropub update
A Micropub update may convert a note into a photo, so re-run the filters that auto-add posts to channels after an update has runcontinue reading... -
@schmarty has done this by creating a new "podcast" post type that pulls its posts from a tag. I like it.

I'd like to be able to consume content from https://micro.blog and comment on peoples posts and get back their comments but without actually the need to use their software. It's kind of close because they use webmentions and I've seen some links to RSS feeds, but the UI if you're not logged in is quite awful.
For example, I found https://micro.blog/jthingelstad by randomly typing https://manton.micro.blog/ which turned out to be the test blog of the creator of Micro.blog all the way down in the footer I found a link to https://micro.blog/manton which for some reason has compleatly different content than the subdomain. There I saw him mentioning https://micro.blog/jthingelstad so I rewrote the URL to https://jthingelstad.micro.blog and was looking for a link to their RSS. The footer didn't have one but the HTML head has one which luckily my browser shows. https://micro.blog/jthingelstad didn't have a link to that RSS feed nor to the subdomain where I can find the link to the RSS feed.
I think they would get much more traction if they did some homework on not putting up those walls around their garden like everyone else does. I'll follow this one guy now and we'll see if I can get into this community with just my own software and without signing up for a username there.
If you have an account, then your main timeline is available as a JSON Feed, like https://micro.blog/feeds/{username}.json
You can add that feed to a reader, and you can comment on the posts from there. Micro.blog URLs also accept webmentions, and your comments will appear back on the original posts. I've been doing this for a while now! -
Add option to dispense 1/2 or 3/4 drinks
Maybe as an option at the top of the drink menu, to avoid adding a prompt when choosing a drink.continue reading... -
Alert/stop when a pump has been running for too long
When a bottle runs out, the system is not aware that it's empty. There should be some threshold where if a pump has been running for "too long", much longer than expected for the amount being poured, it should pause and alert the user. Since I normally have additional back stock I can fill up the jar and continue the pour.continue reading... -
add a button to cancel the current pour
Need a way to completely abort the current pour, for a few reasons.continue reading... -
Project the expected date each bottle will be empty
based on the consumption rate in the past 90 dayscontinue reading... -
add "mark all as read" button
for those times when you want to declare channel bankruptcycontinue reading... -
stronger visual indicator of which account context a channel is in
I've already had a few occasions where I "liked" a post from the wrong account because I didn't notice the default account context which is currently only the profile icon in the lower right corner. Need some sort of bigger visual indicator, such as changing the background color of the window, or adding a colored border.continue reading... -
create meta-channel for showing the last known location of friends
Given an existing channel, create a meta-channel containing only h-cards with the last known location of everyone from the main channel. Useful as a "where are all my friends" channel if shown on a map.continue reading... -
add IndieAuth login to channels
Currently you can add an "API Key" in order to write content into channels. This is actually Aperture acting as a Micropub endpoint. It should be possible to log in to existing Micropub clients as one of these API keys, doing the IndieAuth flow and resulting in providing the client with the API key. This would provide a way to set up fancier integrations without copying and pasting tokens.continue reading... -
provide a UI to move a feed into a different channel
should move all existing entries from the old channel to the new channelcontinue reading... -

Store feed metadata
Feeds include additional data such as a name, image and description. In the case of podcast feeds, the podcast artwork is a critical component of the feed and should be presented when viewing entries from the feed.continue reading... -
create meta-channel with h-events for upcoming birthdays
Given your (or a channel's) following list, find birthdays, then create h-events for upcoming birthdays. A microsub client that shows events will be able to show upcoming birthdays without understanding birthdays specifically. Could also index your website's nicknames cache to find birthdays there. or maybe provide a way to sync to Google Contacts even.continue reading... -
add geofencing support
I'd like to be able to define geofences and rules that will run whenever a fence is entered or exited.continue reading... -

Replied to reply to https://aaronparecki.com/2018/01/06/13/code-snippetsThis is great, thanks for creating such a useful tool! Do you also host your own git repo, and if so, how do you integrate that into your website?
I use gitlist (https://github.com/klaussilveira/gitlist) but itās not integrated into my site at all.
Also on:
Thanks! My code snippets arenāt backed by a special git repo like gists are. Theyāre just stored with my regular posts. Those are part of the git repo storing my full siteās content, so I do have versioning if I try hard enough, but version control isnāt specifically a feature of this yet. -

Thatās funny, I have that tag query support on my list both for my site and for Indigenous as well!
Out of curiosity, how long has it been on your list? Cause it's been on mine for a long time but I guess I haven't quite felt annoyed enough by having to type out the full tag to go implement this. -
