I get iPhone users sending me blue bubbles that I don't see cos they show up on the Mac, and I'm on my phone
#
aaronpk
haha yeah that is a problem
#
kylewm
aaronpk: it's not that weird... that color green is really unpleasant!
#
aaronpk
i actually don't text people from my iphone number, i use google voice for texting non-iphone people
#
KevinMarks_
They were all green before
#
kylewm
@ftrain says it was a friendlier milder green tho
#
KevinMarks_
Mind you, I also get people texting me and I don't see cos I'm on wifi, or the Mac or something

Wanna thank @tef for the reminder that #indieweb is a domain of the privileged with a long way to go to inclusivity... But it is a start.

#
acegiak
GWG: ah, so, the problem is the publish_post hook being shitty
#
acegiak
cause I changed that other one to transition_post_status
#
GWG
acegiak: Pull requests always appreciated.
#
acegiak
GWG: working on it
scor joined the channel
#
acegiak
transition_post_status is just way more control over when things happen. I'll just do pull requests for the adjustments
lukebrooker joined the channel
#
acegiak
GWG: the webmention function wasn't updated for the new meta structure >.<
#
acegiak
I'll do a pull request once I've tested it working

oh hi!

I see it now. You want me to wait for your pull request or fix it?

#
GWG
acegiak: You tested that?

I saw you sending webmentions?

I'll be making some additional changes and pushing an update

KevinMarks: Trying to describe Indieweb Post Kinds as a plugin
#
KevinMarks
show me the text you have, I'll have a go
#
GWG
It's not so good. I've been rewriting it
#
KevinMarks
it's plumbing first again
#
KevinMarks
explain why they would want it because of what it does
#
acegiak
well I'm pretty goddamn pleased with myself. For a mornings work I've fixed webmentions and got my site looking all purdy

"Post Kinds adds support for responding to and interacting with other sites using the standards developed by IndieWebCamp. The standards work through simple microformats2 markup of the site and webmentions to allow sites to communicate with each other."
frzn joined the channel
#
KevinMarks
Post Kinds makes it clear when your post is a reply, a like or an RSVP to someone else's post. It can also distinguish notes, articles and photos.
#
Loqi
[bridgy] pare/pear programmer replied '@kevinmarks coolio. thinking it might involve DNSSEC &amp; TXT Records, so... yay!' to a tweet http://indiewebcamp.com/ (https://twitter.com/OhMeadhbh/status/565686654934208513)
#
KevinMarks
To send replies, likes and RSVPs, use the _webmention_ plugin. To show them on your posts, use _semantic linkbacks_. If you install the _indieweb_ plugin, you get all of these.
#
KevinMarks
Then mention indiewebcamp, microformats and the other buzzwords
#
KevinMarks
does it alter display too, or dose that need template support?
#
@kevinmarks
RT @tef: @benwerd fwiw alhough known has indieweb bits it does seem to try and be a low hassle way to self publish, which is neat

#
GWG
How's this?
#
GWG
= How does it work? =
#
GWG
1. Bob wants to reply to Sue on his own website.
#
GWG
2. Sue enables webmentions on her site.
#
GWG
3. Bob creates a post and sets it as a reply to Sue's post.
#
GWG
4. A webmention is sent to Sue's site, and stored as a comment on Sue's post.
#
GWG
KevinMarks: It does somewhat. To show context
#
KevinMarks
that's good after the top mater I sent
#
KevinMarks
also, this markup is good even without webmentions for indexing purposes
#
KevinMarks
knowing that your post was a like or reply means you could filter it out of articles view for example
#
KevinMarks
or a crawler could reconstruct the thread

i work at the public library right now, interested in SSO right now
#
aaronpk
right now the industry standard is you use this third-party reverse proxy system. none of them use oauth or anything
#
@kevinmarks
#indieweb @schnarfed: POSSE is the 'right' way to do it - PESOS is 2nd class - for likes/retweets this is less true - 1 or 2 taps for them
(twitter.com/_/status/565705558846881792)
#
@kevinmarks
#indieweb @schnarfed: to do an indie like or retweet is noticably more effort than the silo way, especially if it's just a silo post
(twitter.com/_/status/565705737482276864)
#
@kevinmarks
#indieweb @schnarfed: so ownyourresponses pulls the silo likes and responses and posts via micropub

so if people aren't on facebook they won't find the evente

what is g+?
#

Google+ (AKA Google Plus, GPlus, or G+) is both a social content hosting silo operated by Google, similar in many respects to Facebook, and a centralized Google identity service for other Google services like YouTube https://indiewebcamp.com/G%2B

question: if "RSS" meant "really simple syndication", what did the "syndication" mean? where were people syndicating to?
tantek_ joined the channel
#
tantek_
aaronpk, the duplicate feed file itself is the syndication destination
#
sandro
As I understood it at the time, "syndication" meant that site A provided some news-y content and site B would display it. For example, a site about jugglers in the USA might cross-syndicate with a site about jugglers in the Europe, so they could each have more news. This is what the old-media calls syndication, right? See Print Syndication and Web Syndication, on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syndication

hey sandro! can you sync up with ben_thatmust regarding IWC Cambridge hosting/room details in March?

my take on learning to code (or anything really) is to pick something to make, run into things you don't know, scour the web (or other resources) to solve that problem, rinse repeat.

KartikPrabhu
This way you are making something, while learning

GWG
I'm still trying to get around to trying the micropub plugin for WordPress. Can it authenticate using WordPress instead of indieauth?
#
aaronpk
GWG: that doesn't make sense
eschnou joined the channel
#
aaronpk
micropub clients like readers or posting apps are going to be expecting indieauth
#
aaronpk
they're going to send an access token with the request which the micropub endpoint has to verify
#
aaronpk
what could change (and should at some point) with the current version of the plugin is that it could be rewritten so that you stay on your own site the whole time instead of going to indieauth.com
#
kylewm
explaaaain
#
aaronpk
that would involve first creating a token endpoint in the plugin http://indiewebcamp.com/token-endpoint
#
aaronpk
and then creating an authorization endpoint http://indiewebcamp.com/authorization-endpoint
#
aaronpk
(that last one is a really short stub right now sorry)
#
aaronpk
i've set up indieauth.com and tokens.indieauth.com as an authorization endpoint and token endpoint as a service which makes it easier to bootstrap this stuff
#
aaronpk
but it's expected that people will replace their use of those with their own built-in services later
#
GWG
Has anyone?
wolftune joined the channel
#
aaronpk
yes i can't remember who
#
kylewm
so basically, it could authenticate via wordpress but it doesn't now
#
aaronpk
the *user* could authenticate via wordpress
#
GWG
Kylewm, that is what I would prefer
#
aaronpk
instead of on indieauth.com
#
aaronpk
the apps don't care because in the end the apps just get an access token
#
aaronpk
either way
#
snarfed
GWG: have you tried the micropub plugin? did it work for you?
#
kylewm
GWG: cweiske has written an authorization endpoint, several people including me have written token endpoints

#
GWG
If I want to add support for post kinds, should post kinds have micropub as a dependency or vice versa
#
snarfed
GWG: no clue. i don't know how that relationship would work yet
#
bret
all micropub has been h-entry, with post type derived from received properties
#
snarfed
i'd probably wait on that until more of the basic property support is fleshed out
#
GWG
Snarfed, just thinking about where it might belong.
#
bret
once you get your micropub request parsed out, you have to map it to whatever storage format you want
#
GWG
Bret, so does that go in the micropub plugin or the storage format plugin? Or a third?
#
aaronpk
bret: yeah that's what they're talking about
#
bret
does what go?
#
bret
oh i see sorry
#
snarfed
bret: hmm. http://indiewebcamp.com/micropub#Creating_Objects actually implies micropub does h-* not just h-entry
#
aaronpk
"post kinds" is GWG's wordpress plugins that handles posts which are likes vs replies etc
#
aaronpk
snarfed: yeah why not an h-event for exmaple!
#
GWG
Basically, pull request vs feature request
#
aaronpk
i think right now everyone's just doing h-entrys

bret
snarfed: yeah, so far the only clients have been entry what what I was pointing out

bret
s/what/was

Loqi
bret meant to say: snarfed: yeah, so far the only clients have been entry was was I was pointing out

i would think make micropub depend on post-types
