Notes

Ian Forrester

(via chat as he's in the UK)
Last night I moved my gratitude diary from wordpress.com and moved it to my Raspberry PI with Yunohost. - https://gratitude.cubicgarden.info/blog/
Like to have a play with kinds to make each diary entry a little different depending on my gratitude.
- Also like this to transfer into the RSS feed, so I can do something different here - https://cubicgarden.com/gratitude-diary/ (pulls from the RSS feed)
Also tried to install WriteFreely instead of WP but didn't seem to install. Like to make writing the gratitude s a bit quicker, so looking at the email to WP thing
I always write my gratitude diary late at night and when I was around my partners flat, didn't want to get the chromebook out to post for a short while. WP is quicker but feels heavy for something so small and quick
I enabled micropub on wp; I enabled indieauth
https://gratitude.cubicgarden.info/blog/2020/11/15/307/ - via webauth & micropub

datasette-indieauth plugin
Datasette https://datasette.io/ can be extended with authentication plugins. I decided to write one for IndieAuth.
Plugin homepage: https://github.com/simonw/datasette-indieauth
Demo here: https://datasette-indieauth-demo.vercel.app/-/indieauth
It can also be configured to ONLY allow access to the Datasette instance for a specific allow-list of user IDs. This demo only allows access to simonwillison.net https://datasette-indieauth-demo-j7hipcg4aq-uc.a.run.app/
Here's the command I ran to deploy that demo:

datasette publish cloudrun ../datasette/fixtures.db \
   --service datasette-indieauth-demo \
   --install datasette-indieauth \
   --plugin-secret datasette-indieauth restrict_access https://simonwillison.net/

So now I can publish a database file to the internet and restrict access to a specific allow-list of IndieAuth user IDs using a single terminal command.
