aaronpk
that's a wiki thing
#
aaronpk
not sure why mediawiki kills the sessions so often
#
gRegorLove
Question regarding webmention responses: When sending back JSON, is there a standardized naming for the values? E.g. {"message":"Success"}
#
gRegorLove
'message' or 'response' make sense.

#
aaronpk
no, the response body isn't really important
#
aaronpk
it's the HTTP code that indicates success/fail
#
aaronpk
also you could return HTML just as easily
#
gRegorLove
Aye, I'm returning HTML currently.
#
gRegorLove
I might be going overboard, but I like the idea of responding with plaintext/HTML/JSON based on the Accept header. :)
#
aaronpk
i like that idea as well :)
#
aaronpk
but i'm am unsure if anybody is even looking at the response body currently
#
aaronpk
so it might not even matter
bnvk joined the channel
#
snarfed
anecdotally, it sounds like mostly humans are looking at the response body
#
aaronpk
usually during development, then never again
#
gRegorLove
I'm planning to log responses, mostly out of curiosity. I also am trying to give some helpful responses along with various HTTP 400 scenarios: missing 'source' param, missing 'target' param, and 'target' is not a valid URL
#
gRegorLove
Should 404 be used for the latter?
#
snarfed
gRegorLove: probably 400
#
snarfed
404 would imply that your webmention endpoint itself doesn't exist, which isn't true
#
gRegorLove
Ah, right
#
aaronpk
the http responses should be pretty well documented at this point
#
gRegorLove
Yep, I'm just tired and didn't fully think through that one. :)

dietrich: (belated response) the reason I care about mozilla versions is that new versions often break things for me and it takes years to never to fix them

wagle: new versions often break what kinds of things? (and you're talking about firefox yah?)
#
wagle
sorry, yeah, firefox.. mostly bookmarks..
#
dietrich
wagle: hm, that's code i've worked on. what about bookmarks breaks?
#
wagle
i use tags, not folders...
#
wagle
for example, if you change an url on a bookmark, you lose your tags
#
wagle
but not your folder
#
wagle
didnt use to do that until a year or so ago
#
wagle
the bookmark editor is tiny.. have to install plugins to grow it

yeah..
#
dietrich
wagle: got a link? i can prod the people working on that stuff these days
#
dietrich
oh awesome, assigned and has a patch as of recently
#
dietrich
i'll ask marco when he's gonna land that
#
wagle
cool... thanks
snarfed joined the channel
#
dietrich
wagle: nm, i just reviewed it and hopefully it'll land asap
#
dietrich
if it makes the merge on monday it'll ship to release builds in 18 weeks
#
dietrich
such a small change, and fixes dataloss regression, so maybe an argument for backporting to get it released sooner...
#
wagle
very cool.. noticed the comment about async transaction manager.. it takes me 35 minutes to shutdown firefox.. 8)
#
wagle
11 seconds to .dump places to a file, so there's some overhead to expect, though

intersting the ffmpeg line

was that to download it?

ffmpeg to extract the few minutes I wanted to highlight

well the soundcloud is akin to hosting it, but not sure

interesting idea, to use that...

to my own notes

I think the 140 character rules go out the window when you include a link
#
Jeena
yeah they do :-/ I need to get the data from https://api.twitter.com/1.1/help/configuration.json first and there there is short_url_length_https and I have to use that, as far as I understand

pdurbin
Jeena: how many characters do you get?
#
Jeena
it returns 23 for https and 22 for normal links

#

uh. does that mean you get 118 characters if you include a normal link? (140 - 22)

Doesn't look like it's too difficult. I'm going through the process right now.
#
aaronpk
then you go to the twitter deveoper site and they have a validation tool
#
aaronpk
then it takes a week or two and they approve your site
#
icco
ah, lame.
#
aaronpk
do it now, then you'll forget about it, and in a couple weeks you'll get an email and be like "oh cool"
