    #112 Micropub Errors

    Aaron Parecki

    Was able to reproduce this after carefully reading the other thread. The key is this: https://github.com/snarfed/wordpress-micropub/issues/104#issuecomment-359267767

    If you save the writing settings page, it writes a blank value for micropub_default_post_status to the database, so then the get_option call later will return the blank value instead of the default.

    #112 Micropub Errors

    Aaron Parecki
    Can confirm that this problem does not exist on a clean wordpress install with the current 1.3 release. I'm trying to track down what causes the error to surface.

    I have no strong opinion here, 501 arose from discussion on the IWC Slack.

    My API experience falls into REST and deep-stack buckets. Micropub is lighter weight than any non-REST protocol I've used or implemented over HTTP, so it "feels" right for it to act RESTy.

    To defend my recommendation, if it's not appropriate to use HTTP codes, why does the spec call for the use of 4xx codes, rather than replying with a 2xx that includes error details?

    Aaron Parecki
    The 4xx codes were inherited from OAuth 2.0, which defines a few 4xx codes when using access tokens, https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6750#section-3.1 and using 400 as a catch-all for any client errors.

    Add option to deduplicate entries within a channel across sources

    Currently each source is treated independently, and if two sources end up having the same entry, the entry will appear twice in the channel. This is only a problem when for example I add a Twitter search from granary.io as a source, as well as have my streaming search script running, and a tweet matches both.

    That’s funny, I have that tag query support on my list both for my site and for Indigenous as well!

    Aaron Parecki
    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.

    This 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 it’s not integrated into my site at all.

    Aaron Parecki
    Thanks! My code snippets aren’t backed by a special git repo like gists are. They’re just stored with my regular posts. Those are part of the git repo storing my full site’s content, so I do have versioning if I try hard enough, but version control isn’t specifically a feature of this yet.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Aaron Parecki
    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!
