aaronpk
i'm trying to update my SSL, but having problems. I'm wondering if it's because of an old version of nginx
#
GWG
aaronpk: What is the problem?
#
aaronpk
i still have an F because it supports ssl 2
#
aaronpk
i've copied the ssl_protocols and ciphers lines from the wiki
#
rascul
where do you have ssl_protocols defined?
#
aaronpk
in the vhost
#
rascul
check also if you have it defined in the http block
#
rascul
i put it in the http block and only the host specific stuff in the server blocks
#
aaronpk
hm not in the http block
#
rascul
i was curious if maybe you have it defined twice
#
aaronpk
yeah makes sense
#
GWG
Well, what I do is create divide my nginx configuration into individual files.
#
rascul
aaronpk did you remember to restart nginx?
#
aaronpk
reloaded, didnt restart
#
aaronpk
it picked up the new cert, shaaaaaaa is happy now
#
rascul
aaronpk could you post your nginx config somewhere that i might look at it? maybe i can see something that looks funny
#
rascul
looks
#
aaronpk
ok *now* shaaaaaaaaa.....com is happy
#
rascul
it all looks fine there
#
rascul
must be something fishy going on
#
aaronpk
maybe my openssl is too old
#
rascul
see if anything pops up
#
aaronpk
i apparently have sslv2 set on some other domains
#
rascul
maybe that's causing it to act weird
LavaLevel joined the channel
#
rascul
did you get that ssl stuff from /nginx ?
#
aaronpk
i'm gonna take it out of the rest of the vhosts
#
rascul
this one is a bit better, i'll get around to putting it in /nginx sooner or later http://indiewebcamp.com/User:Rascul.io/ssl
#
rascul
the cipher list i mean is probably better, but you might find some other stuff that's not yet mentioned in /nginx
#
aaronpk
i do like the idea of putting all that in the http block
#
rascul
i did it like that because that stuff won't change per host
#
rascul
took me and ssllabs.com awhile to get that cipher list right, every client is supported by the best available cipher
snarfed joined the channel
#
rascul
if you use sni that cipher list can be trimmed down a little more to drop support for clients that can't do sni, but i haven't bothered to do that yet
#
aaronpk
yeah I do use SNI
#
rascul
i gotta go to bed, hopefully you can get your ssl stuff worked out
#
aaronpk
thanks!
#
aaronpk
didnt work. oh well. willprobably put it off until i move servers.

#
aaronpk
now i'm really tempted to set up an elasticsearch instance to index all posts coming into and out of my site

aaronpk: I've got a Redis search index for all incoming/outgoing posts right now. It works really well. ES might be a good fit, but Redis is super responsive (assuming your server can handle holding the index in memory).
#
aaronpk
interesting! I do already use redis
#
aaronpk
i hadn't heard of redis being used to generic search before
#
aaronpk
what are the commands you'd use for using it as a search index?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "the commands you'd use for using it as a search index" yet. Would you like to create it? http://indiewebcamp.com/wiki/index.php?action=edit&title=the+commands+you%27d+use+for+using+it+as+a+search+index
#
aaronpk
ok well that was fun. knocked off another item on my todo list. now I can add tags to existing posts using a very similar interface to wordpress
#
@schnarfed
@elkos hey, sorry you had trouble with bridgy! i'll look into it. for self-hosted WP though, i'd recommend http://wordpress.org/plugins/indieweb/ instead.

no, I just buggered up nginx.conf, then restarted. I undid my changes and then had to start it again

Feel lucky :) In 2001, I had sent the whole night upgrading a parc of OpenBSD machines. At 7AM, I finally had downloaded the just released Slackware 9, launched the upgrade on my workstation, told the installer to format my home and leave / untouched.

petermolnar, I'm working on a different syndication plugin. I know you contributed to the other one.
#
petermolnar
I have not contributed to snap, I've started an entirely different one, but so far it's doing nothing, just implemented some ui & some hooks to the keyring plugin
tantek joined the channel

petermolnar
I'd be happy to contribute to a new one

so far, I only made a the UI calls and the basic code layout for the one I started and then dumped due to tonnes of other things in my life: https://github.com/petermolnar/posse

aaronpk, sorry brain fart, i meant to say scope=

ben_thatmustbeme
i want to make a mircopub posting page like http://waterpigs.co.uk/notes/new/ but that means i need to request scope=post. But I don't want to always ask for post access, so I'll have to do some sort of asking for elevating privileges, which could be pretty cool
#
ben_thatmustbeme
but i don't really know if i have post access or not do I?

somewhere near The Redd?
#
bret
is there a nice lobby?

bret
not that familiar with that part of town

lots of neat places around there though

!tell aaronpk any ideas for an indieweb breakfast for Saturday morning and/or Sunday morning close to the conference venue? and perhaps an Indie Event for that too?

Loqi
Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next

pick one?
#
bret
meat cheese bread is pretty cool
#
bret
ack my parents are in town on thursday tho, so i'll be with them
#
bret
"meat cheese bread"... right next to "beer"
#
bret
thats where we did breakfast last year iirc
#
KevinMarks_
that was a foursquare search

i just realized i can't meet thursday is the thing (parents in town)
#
KevinMarks_
I'm tlaking sat am
#
KevinMarks_
I'll post an indieevent

#
KevinMarks_
*group seating
#
bret
i'm not actually sure. only have been there in the evenings outside

how would ppl feel about 8:30 breakfast to make sure to leave enough time for registration at xoxo?
#
aaronpk
actually meat cheese bread is probably a good call
#
aaronpk
it's open early enough and appears to be order-at-the-counter style which is good for adhoc groups of unknown numbers of people
#
KevinMarks_
will amend
#
KevinMarks_
lots of space outside
#
KevinMarks_
good bench style tbales outside so as long as it's nto raining too hard'

looks like the weather forecast is like 80-90 this weekend

#
ben_thatmustbeme
okay, fairly certain i'm confusing auth code and token again. trying to figure out how to make a micropub page work
#
ben_thatmustbeme
so i'm using indieauth for login, asking for scope=post
#
aaronpk
an auth code is used to obtain an access token
#
ben_thatmustbeme
okay, right now i send them over to indieauth.com/auth. they get validated, and it redirects them to my page/login with code=blahblahblah then i verify that the code is good by connecting back to indieauth. where to i get the token from there?
#
aaronpk
you need a token endpoint
#
aaronpk
something that your micropub endpoint knows about
#
aaronpk
it can be part of your website, or you can use https://tokens.indieauth.com
tilgovi joined the channel
#
aaronpk
the token endpoint is going to be the thing that ends up verifying the auth code
#
ben_thatmustbeme
but to have others use this, i want to check their site for a token endpoint
#
aaronpk
you're making a micropub client?
#
ben_thatmustbeme
yeah for my page. starting out like http://waterpigs.co.uk/notes/new/
#
ben_thatmustbeme
but allow anyone to use it
#
ben_thatmustbeme
as others do
#
aaronpk
ah right ok
#
aaronpk
it uses a helper library to do all the discovery of the endpoints, but should be readable
#
ben_thatmustbeme
i'm wondering if i should just have a seperate login for this. I don't see it as nice to have the login always ask for post scope unless they actually want to do that
#
aaronpk
that is definitely a good idea
#
ben_thatmustbeme
i'm using indieauth-client-php for endpoint discovery already
#
aaronpk
oh good then you can follow the Quill code
#
KartikPrabhu
kylewm: do you know a line number or something for that. I can file a bug
#
ben_thatmustbeme
so have i been doing this all wrong then. for just simple login, is it fine to just always post to indieauth.com/auth? but now for this login because I will need a token i have to go to their site and find their auth provider (or i'll never get a token)
#
aaronpk
for simple login you can also find their auth endpoint if they have one
#
aaronpk
or you can just let indieauth.com do all the work (pending my finishing indieauth.com doing the discovery of the person's auth endpoint)
#
ben_thatmustbeme
i could, but didn't know if it was really worth it. I'll implement it now anyway, but didn't know if it would really gain me anything
#
aaronpk
it will make cweiske happy :)
#
ben_thatmustbeme
