kylewm
has anyone tried minifying CASSIS? I'm guessing it wouldnt cause problems?
mcverryj1 joined the channel
#
aaronpk
i did in php
#
aaronpk
but not on the JS side
#
kylewm
you can minify php?
#
aaronpk
sure why not
#
kylewm
why would you? :P
#
aaronpk
well in this case what I did was remove all the hacks to leave just PHP code
#
kylewm
I'm guessing that's what would happen with the js one too
#
kylewm
since they're all comments

I'm thinking about making a version of cassis that uses the TLD list from https://github.com/kylewm/brevity/blob/master/brevity.py#L234

Who wants to buy a domain for Indieweb git hosting?
snarfed joined the channel
#
tantek
maybe for April fools?
#
KartikPrabhu
a common indieweb git hosting will have the same spof problem no?
#
tantek
or perhaps make it a Lazyweb request of archive.org :)
#
tantek
KartikPrabhu: exactly
#
aaronpk
the only way to indie-host git is to not host it and just have your repo on your computer and then push directly to where you're deploying it
#
aaronpk
your git server can't go down if there is no git server ;)
#
KartikPrabhu
but have a remote backup in case your own computer goes down ;)
#
aaronpk
naturally
#
aaronpk
but that can be offline
#
KartikPrabhu
but there is collaborative value in having one copy online
#
bear
make sure you seperate the git part of what github is from the value add
#
aaronpk
basically 100% uptime is really hard no matter what, and chances are someone whose business it is to have as close to 100% uptime is going to do it better than you no matter what
#
bear
you can have a dozen git repos all distributed and being updated - it's the issues and wiki and static sites and webhooks that make it harder
#
matrrix
didnt someone write some git-in-a-dht-or-blockchain type of thing recently
#
aaronpk
lol ow my head
#
bear
probably, but as soon as I see "blockchain" in any description my brain blanks out as a defense mechanism
#
matrrix
oh its hosted on githbu

bear: iirc they were using the blockchain part of it only to create namecoin-like references to repo DHT hashes
#
matrrix
it was mostly about pushing to a DHT, or uh something. I couldn't say right now.

#
@kevinmarks
#indieweb @scottros: So I was frustrated with having to cross-post links and posts from my wordpress to lots of other sites,
(twitter.com/_/status/692547924480413697)
#
@kevinmarks
#indieweb @scottros: so I proposed a write once, post many places tool - and I understand that https://withknown.com/ does a lot of this
(twitter.com/_/status/692548126952026114)
#
@kevinmarks
#indieweb @scottros: we brainstormed ideas on what would help with the problem of cross-posting longform content

@kevinmarks
#indieweb @benwerd: so this was Lean Product Canvas?

@kevinmarks
#indieweb @scottros: I had all sorts of quibbles and arguments with the nomenclature - why would the advantage be unfair?
(twitter.com/_/status/692548514363117568)
#
@kevinmarks
#indieweb @scottros: so the idea would be to create an ideal post with title, image content etc, and then see previews of it in each silo

is LetsAuth something interesting for the indieweb movement? https://github.com/letsauth/letsauth.github.io/wiki
#
fiatjaf
a protocol that aims to replace mozilla persona, that could work with silo emails, but also with simple implementations on each one's domains (without the need for an email server) would be very interesting.
#
tantek
fiatjaf: could work as an IndieAuth provider mechanism, if it actually gets anywhere.

How do you know if your scope has crept too much?
#
GWG
We discussed adding rel me to the WordPress Indieweb plugin, and I am thinking of going as far as hcard.
#
GWG
Wondering if that goes too far.
LaraFZ, singpolyma and gRegorLove joined the channel
#
GWG
singpolyma, I was looking at your extended profiles plugin.
#
singpolyma
GWG: yeah?
#
GWG
You still use it, you said?
#
singpolyma
I do, it's on my homepage
#
GWG
The discussion was about having the Indiemark identity axis built in the Indieweb plugin.
#
GWG
Having some of the h-card fields would be in that vein.
Loqi joined the channel
#
GWG
Either way, I saw some code about an hcard import?
#
singpolyma
hmm, yes. there is such a thing in there
#
singpolyma
using the ancient hkit code
#
snarfed
indiemark identity axis?!
#
GWG
snarfed, level 1 relme level 2 hcard
#
GWG
Putting identity into the Indieweb plugin gives people a reason to install it other than the plugin installer.
#
GWG
Just trying to figure out the right level of features.
#
snarfed
personally indiemark seems very low priority to me compared to actual functionality
#
snarfed
but just my opinion
hrrsn and gRegorLove joined the channel
#
GWG
snarfed, but what goes in an Indieweb plugin better than the tools to get you Indieauth and an hcard?
#
snarfed
oh i misunderstood
#
gRegorLove
GWG: My first thought is not to include hcard since most themes already include it with the author info for each post.
#
gRegorLove
Possibly broken mf1 hcards... but adding a proper h-card would just cause parser problems at that point, I think?
#
Loqi
gRegorLove: tantek left you a message 16 hours, 28 minutes ago: could you take a look at creating perhaps the next two months of HWC pages? e.g. https://indiewebcamp.com/events/2016-02-10-homebrew-website-club and https://indiewebcamp.com/events/2016-02-24-homebrew-website-club to start? Thanks! http://indiewebcamp.com/irc/2016-01-27/line/1453947587493
#
snarfed
so it's not indiemark scoring (or whatever) specifically
#
snarfed
sgtm then
#
GWG
petermolnar wrote some codr, I have the code I put into syndication links...
#
GWG
No, it is just how I am describing scope.
#
GWG
Indieweb identity
#
GWG
gRegorLove, they do include it, but not everything.
#
GWG
For example, by default, WordPress has no fields for location.
#
gRegorLove
Right, they're just author hcards in posts. Name and profile URL.
#
GWG
gRegorLove, singpolyma's old plugin offers a short code and a widget for hcards if I read correctly.
#
GWG
Widgets and short codes are plugin territory.
#
GWG
So those would work in scope.
#
voxpelli
Would be cool to see how people are using the WordPress plugins
#
GWG
I am just thinking of a Newcomer who can just add a page to their site with a shortcode, and make that their representative hcard
#
GWG
voxpelli, this is based on an experience an attendee to the HWC in SF had.
#
GWG
I gathered from commentary no one there could assist.
#
GWG
I had relme in one of my plugins, but no one could find it.
#
GWG
So, putting it into the Indieweb plugin, seemed to be the consensus.
#
voxpelli
yeah, some consolidation would lower the threshold and make it easy to get started
#
GWG
So I am trying to merge the various implementations into one base one that can be extended.
#
GWG
voxpelli, bingo
#
voxpelli
but at the same time consolidation comes at the cost of plurality and customization for power users
#
GWG
voxpelli, thus extensibility.
#
GWG
And you don't have to use the Indieweb plugin.
#
voxpelli
maybe one could think about ways to both make a simple consolidated wp-module that solves 80% of the use cases and is easy to get started with
#
voxpelli
which provides a set of best practices out of the box
#
GWG
voxpelli, I have some ideas in that direction. If only WordPress did libraries.
LaraFZ joined the channel
#
voxpelli
and then one could move to the more advanced modules once one grows out of that one and wants more customization
#
GWG
Voxpelli, in this case, that is the Indieweb plugin.
#
voxpelli
one can bundle libraries oneself and detect collisions and disable the module on collisions
#
GWG
It is the plugin people usually install when getting started.
#
GWG
I've paused my work on location/venue to work on it.
#
GWG
The development version has some relme xode, but I want to get it stable enough to push to the WordPress repository.
#
GWG
I have privileges for that.
gRegorLove joined the channel
#
voxpelli
cool, yeah, it would be cool to have a one-click descent indiewebification of a wordpress site
#
GWG
I'd like to have it before another WordPress user shows up at HWC or IWC
#
GWG
voxpelli, basic indiewebification.
#
voxpelli
main question is probably how to handle the relationships with the other modules and what to do within wordpress itself and eg. what to outsoruce
#
GWG
voxpelli, I'm working on a commit for some of this.
#
voxpelli
for Jekyll I eg. decided to embed webmentions through javascript rather than to push it directly into my source code ā€“ to limit the scope of things
#
GWG
But we have a lot of work that community members have done.
#
gRegorLove
GWG: representative h-card is a nice-to-have, not a must-have. Whereas the rel-me is a must-have to get IndieAuth working.
#
GWG
gRegorLove, we have relme thanks to petermolnar, but it is not fully baked yet.
jgarber joined the channel
#
voxpelli
IndieAuth on the other hand isn't critical to get working unless one eg. wants to edit the wiki ;) WebMention + h-entries are the most crucial parts
#
gRegorLove
The per-post hcard that comes with most WP themes is a minimally viable hcard. So that distinction of the nice-to-have vs must-have is what makes me think h-card should be separate plugin
#
gRegorLove
voxpelli: True, but we've had people specifically have issues setting up IndieAuth on WP, thus the suggestion that the core IndieWeb plugin include it. It currently is just a wrapper for installing other plugins.
#
GWG
gRegorLove, give me a few days and I will have some demonstration code that might better explain.
#
gRegorLove
But I don't think we've had issues of people setting up representative h-cards, or author name not showing up on posts
#
voxpelli
gRegorLove: yeah, it's a nice to have, somewhat weird that eg. Indiewebify.me pushes IndieAuth as the most critical step towards IndieWebifying oneself :P
#
GWG
I don't really care about Indieauth.
#
GWG
It gets me wiki access.
#
gRegorLove
It opens up some cool options, like micropub
#
gRegorLove
well, first step towards
#
GWG
And authentication for micropub.
#
GWG
But I care about people coming to my site and knowing who I am more.
#
voxpelli
My priority is: 1. receive webmentions 2. make it possible to subscribe to ones h-feed 3. send webmentions
#
gRegorLove
Or signing up for /Telegraph so you don't have to set up all the webmention innards yourself
AngeloGladding joined the channel
#
GWG
And who I am to some people is a matter of relme
#
GWG
Those who care about silos.
#
voxpelli
gRegorLove: rel-me based indieauth isn't necessary for Micropub ā€“ an IndieAuth endpoint is, but it can use regular wordpress-login :)
#
GWG
This is why we took some things out of the Indieweb plugin
#
voxpelli
so needs to try out Telegraph so he can get to his own step 3 before being side-tracked too badly by Micropub :)
#
GWG
No one has built wordpress login to indieauth yet.
#
GWG
So, we go back to identity.
#
voxpelli
It would "just" be a matter of implementing: https://indiewebcamp.com/indieauth-for-login :) And would make one more independent than to rely on IndieAuth.com ;)
#
GWG
Establishing your identity online is a good Indieweb goal.
#
gRegorLove
How is that useful when we're discussing people who are having trouble setting up rel-me links on their site? ;)
#
voxpelli
And for something like WordPress that already has user accounts it kind of could make sense ā€“ unlike other systems (like my jekyll site) that has no authentication mechanism of its own at all :P
#
voxpelli
gRegorLove: well, one can either answer someones question or try to solve their problem ;)
#
GWG
I think I will try writing some code and see where it takes me.
#
GWG
I'll be back later.
#
voxpelli
if WP supports IndieAurth for Login the one could even log in to the wiki without ever having to set up a rel-me :)
#
gRegorLove
Not it. :)
#
gRegorLove
backs away

one more q: I want to have a python and a js version of the same library that runs against the same test cases (defined in a shared JSON file). should those implementations be in one git repository or more?
#
kylewm
I want them to be in one repository, but not sure if that will confuse npm
#
voxpelli
kylewm: you can always set an .npmignore so that the python files are never published to npm
yalamerde and Pierre-O joined the channel
#
kylewm
I'm leaning toward splitting them up and just living with having 2 copies of the test cases
#
voxpelli
kylewm: you can always make them use the same JSON somehow ā€“ maybe in a similar way as some of the mf2 parsers are
#
aaronpk
you could put the test cases into a separate rpo
#
KevinMarks
and include the repo

kylewm
hmm, ok maybe that

thats what I did with my mf2py fork when I was iterating on the tests and the parser in parallel https://github.com/kevinmarks/mf2py
#
KevinMarks
the tests dir is another repo

and you could include it in one of three ways I think: Curl it from a known URL, do a Git Subtree, or do a Git Submodule

it's been a while, I don't quite remember
#
voxpelli
mostly when you're merging different branches or start to move things around I ran into issues, but was a while ago for me as well
#
voxpelli
if the history of the module one includes is rather small then a subtree won't hurt that much

s/IndieMark/IndieMark levels

i thought he was proposing something like calculating indiemark score, badging, etc

Loqi
tantek meant to say: this makes no sense to me because the whole point of IndieMark levels was to bundle together clusters of *actual functionality* that was similar in level / core-ness
#
tantek
yes, score & badging are not important. but using an IndieMark level or axes to define a scope for features makes more sense that trying to figure out a scope on your own from scratch.
#
tantek
or rather, *displaying* score is not important

anyway, to be clear, any time you see IndieMark diverging from "actual functionality" - please point it out - as that's something we should be wary of and fix

i'm not a fan of auto-linking, but that is a bias that comes from running a commercial ad-driven site where a single bad link that goes to a domain-squatted link farm can serve up exploit images
#
KevinMarks
modifying a regex like that is hard
#
bear
so I'm definitely not normal

kylewm: do you know how twitter decides to autolink something?
#
tantek
kylewm: yeah that's a good reason to track twitter behavior
#
aaronpk
do they actually document that? that would be nice of them
#
tantek
or at least provide BOTH options
#
tantek
for preview / tweet-char-count predictions
#
kylewm
yeah the twitter algorithm is open source
#
tantek
because Twitter also does weird things too
#
tantek
e.g. does not link plain 2LDs to ccTLDs
#
tantek
like ttk.me
#
tantek
which I use to create unlinked permashortcitations
#
tantek
but then I hyperlink those on my own site

#

what is brevity-js?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "brevity-js" yet. Would you like to create it? https://indiewebcamp.com/s/10CX
#
kylewm
I'm doing a real lewis carroly thing porting cassis to python, changing it a bunch, and then porting my port to js
#
tantek
mentions the aforementioned Github frontend tool
#
KevinMarks
i'm wondering if I should switch noterlive to twitter-text-js as that may be easier than understanding cassis's regex enough to send a PR
#
kylewm
no way twitter-text-js is easier to understand than cassis!
#
kylewm
it's like an order of magnitude bigger
#
aaronpk
oh speaking of cassis, would appreciate if you reviewed this tantek! https://github.com/tantek/cassis/pull/25
#
tantek
is in heads-down mode for trip to Sydney, other than bite-sized things
#
tantek
HWC SF 2016-02-10 venue confirmed
#
kylewm
KevinMarks: I misunderstood you, sorry. see your point now
#
aaronpk
what I did was: 1) moved code around so that PHP and JS can share test data (e.g. https://github.com/tantek/cassis/pull/25/files#diff-0983723a4618af8afb94eeb2a96d02ffR1)
#
tantek
oh dear
#
tantek
yeah that's going to take some review ;/
#
aaronpk
2) in PHP mode, use the bcmath functions if available so that newbase60 works with large numbers https://github.com/tantek/cassis/pull/25/files#diff-c83cd412ebcf174a85a1f817bec1b17eR479
#
tantek
but does that work in JS too?
#
aaronpk
no, but it's no less broken than it is now in JS
#
tantek
but it's divergent between JS/PHP
#
aaronpk
right now num_to_sxg and sxg_to_num don't work with twitter IDs
#
aaronpk
they are divergent right now since the behavior of them is essentially undefined right now
#
tantek
I know - that's worth an issue (if you haven't already filed it)
#
tantek
but I really don't want to make it more capable in one vs the other
#
aaronpk
yeah it's been there since 2014 ;) https://github.com/tantek/cassis/issues/17
#
tantek
broken = broken no matter how
#
aaronpk
I don't know how to make it work in JS without adding a library dependency
#
tantek
HWC SF venue confirmed for 2016-02-24 and 2016-03-09
#
tantek
aaronpk: I'm tempted to write the math myself
#
aaronpk
I miiiight be able to pull out just the functions I need from here https://github.com/rauschma/strint/blob/master/strint.js
#
tantek
looks into the future and sees he will not be in SF on 2016-03-23 :/
#
kylewm
pretty likely I won't be either :/

actually, no I should be OK
#
tantek
what are GitHub Pages?
#
Loqi
GitHub is a specialized content hosting silo for code, issues, comments, and static content that has some aspects of a commons, and through free domain mapping, a content hosting service as well https://indiewebcamp.com/github-pages

tantek: Should I keep LA in the next two months of HWC pages, or comment them out? Not familiar if it's a regular meeting or just starting
#
tantek
I think angelo was pretty dedicated, so leave it
#
tantek
and plus his track record for 2016 is 100% so far :D
#
gRegorLove
considers making a template for the RSVP city sections and each of their multiple links (FB, Calgator, indie event, etc.)
#
tantek
templates are only more helpful when you *want* the content to be more static than accurate
#
tantek
the per city stuff is still so dynamic (and we want it to keep improving)
#
gRegorLove
I was thinking of, if you drop a FB link in, it adds "or RSVP on FB" and so on.
#
gRegorLove
Not tied to any services, just [link] and [service name]
#
gRegorLove
For now I'm just copy/pasta-ing though :)

Starting with that one^ I used "RSVP by adding yourself below." for each with the additional options in an HTML comment, so they can be added back as links are set up.

for what its worth I was there last night

intend to formalize more once my site's up and running ;)
#

AngeloGladding: nice! do you have a sign or some other way for people to find you at the venue?
#
AngeloGladding
I'll bring a sign next time. I made sure to tell the barista to send anyone my way.
#
tantek
nice - good call. perhaps note that in the event "Where" for LA - to ask the barista to direct them to the meetup
#
AngeloGladding
maybe I'll drive out to the west side to meet up with shaners (?) next time
#
tantek
yeah! feel free to move the venue around, coordinate with fellow community members - whatever helps you get the meetup off the ground
#
GWG
I have returned
#
KartikPrabhu
it is good to update change of venue in advance in case people randomly decide to show up
#
AngeloGladding
how do you tell loqi to message someone upon their return?

KartikPrabhu
!tell AngeloGladding: like this
#
Loqi
Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
#
AngeloGladding
thanks
#
gRegorLove
I think I'll try to get a Bellingham HWC going in the near future. Thought about contacting the ACM club at WWU
#
KartikPrabhu
AngeloGladding: note Loqi only delivers messages if the person posts and only a certain amount of time after the !tell was initiated
#
AngeloGladding
what do you mean by the person posting?
#
KartikPrabhu
as in if the person logs into the channel but does not say anything, the message is not delivered
#
AngeloGladding
ah
#
KartikPrabhu
it is to prevent people from missing messages due to their IRC client auto-logging them in
#
AngeloGladding
got it. make sense
#
KartikPrabhu
is getting pretty fed-up with Feedly.
