what is js2
#

It looks like we don't have a page for "js2" yet. Would you like to create it? https://indiewebcamp.com/s/105k

so far i only knew about Teacup also listed on https://github.com/ouisharelabs/food-dashboard#open-source-software

I'm guessing it's a small cross over, and that we should probably move our discussions to indiechat....

!tell mblaney The standard formats for multiple occurrences of a query parameter is to either just repeat the query param with the same name, or to suffix it with "[]". The latter is what PHP does and what Micropub has adopted: http://indiewebcamp.com/micropub#Create

#
mblaney
voxpelli: if there's already agreement then I'm happy with that too.
#
voxpelli
mblaney: with a []-suffix it's totally universal, but even without it should be fairly universal, can't remember how eg. PHP handles it though
#
voxpelli
and since Micropub does [] that's probably the way to go within the indieweb at the moment :)
#
mblaney
yes I think it's worth copying micropub
#
mblaney
I think I saw earlier today that PHP requires [] or it just uses the first parameter
#
mblaney
(on an obscure point, rssCloud uses url1 to urlN)
#
mblaney
my feed page now does a status check for all indie-actions on the page, seems to work well enough.
#
voxpelli
mblaney: be sure to update the wiki page brainstorm with any experience / reflections / references to what you've done :)
#
mblaney
sure, thanks for your input voxpelli. let me know if you get something working too so we can try different implementations :-)
#
voxpelli
mblaney: will do – unfortunately it might take a while :/ lots of work at the moment and when it comes to IndieWeb SWAT0 + a working Micropub are my top priorities
#
voxpelli
the working micropub endpoint can perhaps be leveraged to get such statuses eventually though
#
mblaney
voxpelli: yes they are good priorities and there is always much to do....
#
Zegnat
voxpelli, mblaney, I can confirm that PHP requires []. It will use the last parameter otherwise. Of course that only applies if you want to use $_GET, you can always chose to parse $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] yourself

GWG
Morning
mlncn joined the channel
#
voxpelli
GWG: regarding your thoughts on Micropub edits, my impression is that all Micropub edits are partial and none are full
#
voxpelli
none are full replacements I mean
#
voxpelli
if one wants to do a replacement, then I would say one would use the normal Create and specify the same URL as an existing post
#
GWG
voxpelli: Then the whole update/add thing needs to be settled.
#
voxpelli
GWG: big +1 on that
#
GWG
I just think the second level parameter is unnecessary
#
voxpelli
it's very experimental right now with very limited support amongst clients and providers
#
voxpelli
I think the second level is useful, but real world implementations will help find that out
#
voxpelli
until any proper client supports editing I would skip it
#
GWG
voxpelli: Why is it useful?
#
voxpelli
GWG: two clients can both do an "add" without any conflict arising between the two
#
GWG
Having two different mp-action parameters is simpler.
#
voxpelli
you might want to combine "add", "remove" and "edit" in the same request
#
voxpelli
s/"edit"/"update"
#
Loqi
voxpelli meant to say: you might want to combine "add", "remove" and "update" in the same request
#
voxpelli
s/"edit"/"update"/
#
Loqi
voxpelli meant to say: s/"update"/"update"
#
voxpelli
it's similar to formats like http://jsonpatch.com/
#
GWG
Interesting thought
#
voxpelli
the example in the wiki of adding a syndication URL is a good one – as two different clients could do a POSSE of a post at once
#
voxpelli
and both might want to add the syndication URL independently without risking overwriting one anothers
#
GWG
voxpelli: That I understood. But I had not considered batching different types of updates in the same transaction.
#
GWG
Not sure how common that would be

hey wordpress users! if you see spam comments on your site that end in long hex strings, here's a small PHP snippet that will filter them out automatically: https://snarfed.org/wordpress-mini-spam-filter-for-comments-ending-in-32-hex-characters

e.g. "Taken with a GoPro Hero 3 Black, the photo records the tips of the community’s highest structures jabbing through dense cloud. 4c615976ebb5b573d4b6343094660d05"
#
GWG
snarfed: Morning
#
snarfed
(for a while now, those are the only spam comments that have made it through my site's filters)
#
snarfed
hi GWG!
#
GWG
I've been thinking of you
#
GWG
Mostly because I am still knee deep in Micropub land
#
snarfed
oh boy
#
GWG
snarfed: Good oh boy or bad?
#
snarfed
you tell me!
#
GWG
I hope good
#
GWG
I split parts of the code into smaller pieces to make testing individual sections easier.
#
GWG
I removed testing for parameters you already tested for.
#
GWG
I moved several functions to run on the existing hooks instead of being explicitly called.
#
GWG
And I starr
#
GWG
started writing test data.
#
snarfed
great!
#
snarfed
did you look at other plugin unit tests to see how they do it?
#
snarfed
i'd really like for us to do that before we invent our own testing framework or pattern
#
GWG
They use a specific WP Unit Test class. I have the notations.
#
snarfed
which ones did you look at?
#
GWG
The ones used by core
#
GWG
They have a class called WP_UnitTestCase
#
snarfed
did you look at any third party plugins?
#
snarfed
the ones you looked at were core unit tetsts, not plugin unit tetsts?
#
GWG
I looked at the code in the oembed feature plugin they just merged into core
peacekeep3r and tme5 joined the channel
#
snarfed
probably worth looking at one or two others too
#
snarfed
what did you mean by "i have the notations" ?
#
GWG
Sorry, working on another project that uses that as a term.
#
voxpelli
here's a Swedish plugin with _extensive_ unit tests: https://github.com/wp-papi/papi the creator is very much advocating for tests in WP-plugins
#
GWG
I have the references.
#
voxpelli
not sure if it's a good reference though :P
#
GWG
snarfed: Trust me. I may drive you crazy. I may tear your code to shreds....but THERE WILL BE UNIT TESTS
#
GWG
Sorry, that was for emphasis
#
snarfed
lol np
#
snarfed
let's keep the unit tests and avoid the crazy and shreds :P
#
GWG
snarfed: They are all related.
#
snarfed
ok. as long as we're doing unit tests the common way that most wordpress plugins do, i'll be happy
#
GWG
It is easier to test the create code if you have it separate from the edit code.
#
GWG
If I'm reading the unit test construction, you test individual elements and the whole process.
#
GWG
I needed to break things into those elements to test them.
#
cweiske
GWG, which new oembed feature plugin?
#
snarfed
GWG: i was talking about the unit test framework we use, not about how we refactor :P
#
GWG
Lot more test cases than I would have thought of.
#
GWG
Testing the output of every function
#
GWG
One of the reasons I don't want to directly call $_POST
#
snarfed
when i advocated for using http requests before, i may have been unclear
#
snarfed
i don't actually want to run wordpress, send http requests to localhost, and look at the responses
#
GWG
Oh?
#
snarfed
as you described, with unit tests, you give code some input and look at the output
#
GWG
Yes
#
snarfed
i'd like the micropub tests to all be high level, fill in the input http request data, trigger the plugin, and look at the response and db rows that were created
#
snarfed
as opposed to individually testing smaller inner functions
#
snarfed
testing smaller functions is good for big codebases, but this isn't that
#
snarfed
does that make sense? ie how it's different than actually running wp and sending http requests to localhost?
#
GWG
That is what I was going for. I just want to test create separate from edit.
#
GWG
Which can also be done by setting data in the $_POST variable and running the function
[snarfed] joined the channel
#
[snarfed]
great! exactly, those two tests should just need different http request data
#
[snarfed]
er same
#
[snarfed]
glad to hear we're in the sand page!
#
GWG
There's another reason I want to not directly call $_POST though.
#
GWG
Either way, I'll get there
#
aaronpk
voxpelli: the current micropub edit does allow full replacing of values
#
aaronpk
not sure where you got that impression
#
aaronpk
http://indiewebcamp.com/micropub#Editing "Update: Replace all values of the property. Add: If there are any existing values for this property, they are not changed, the new values are added."
#
GWG
snarfed: By the way, the implementation of edit is not matching the one outlined
#
GWG
snarfed: So I'm not writing a test for it yet. Just for create
#
voxpelli
aaronpk: but only if you actually specify all existing properties of an item, no?
#
aaronpk
oh you are talking about replacing an entire post?
#
GWG
aaronpk: Isn't replacing an entire post an update with everything set?
#
aaronpk
when would you replace an entire post and not set some of the properties?
#
snarfed
GWG: btw i'm still happy to merge https://github.com/snarfed/wordpress-micropub/pull/20 as is, if you just add docs :P
#
voxpelli
aaronpk: yes, replacing entire post, so kind of difference between PUT and PATCH in HTTP verb lingo
#
voxpelli
Current edit is like a PATCH
#
voxpelli
I would say current create is like a POST

GWG, a question: have you ever poked the "Press This" thing in WP? I'm a bit surprised how disconneted it is from the rest of the system
snarfed joined the channel
#
GWG
petermolnar: They revamped it in 4.3. It acts like an alternative post editor
#
petermolnar
yes, I'm aware of it
#
petermolnar
and as always, it's pretty unfinished
#
petermolnar
no filters, no action hooks, no custom taxonomy hooks
#
petermolnar
at least I've found something I can fix for them...
KartikPrabhu joined the channel
#
GWG
petermolnar: I had asked and gotten the impression that they had more planned. This was a complete rewrite of an older feature
#
petermolnar
yeah, I wouldn't hold my breath for that :/
#
GWG
petermolnar: I didn't think they'd do such a big rewrite. Ask snarfed. He used the feature pre 4.3
#
GWG
So you never know
#
GWG
petermolnar: Have you been following 4.4?
sanduhrs joined the channel
#
petermolnar
a little, I've just upgraded my site to the beta to see if there are any quirks
#
GWG
Lots of potentially interesting things
#
petermolnar
I've had my responsive images for years, so I'm not too thrilled about that
#
GWG
oembed for other WordPress sites. Term meta. Rest api infrastructure
#
petermolnar
there were times when I would have been very happy for the taxonomy meta, but I don't see any use at this moment; although that is a useful thing
#
petermolnar
REST api, I'm sceptic and a bit afraid that it can go xmlrpc-wrong, but hopefully not
#
petermolnar
oembed is good though, we'll see how that goes
#
GWG
petermolnar: This is just the infrastructure part. To build any api
#
GWG
I wanted link previews over oembed
#
GWG
Yes, sparked a big debate about removing xmlrpc from WordPress
[snarfed] joined the channel
#
petermolnar
[snarfed], yes, I've tried it soon after you've released it; however, since I'm using a post meta for the url and another for the webmention type, plus markdown, I'm a bit special :)
#
GWG
petermolnar: I tried to write an alternative that did that.
#
petermolnar
I just need a few filters in press-this; I'll try to push for those to happen
#
[snarfed]
markdown still works - i use it too - but understood for the rest
#
GWG
petermolnar: I will comment on a core ticket in support if you file one
#
petermolnar
thanks; I'll need to test if massively first
#
GWG
petermolnar, good luck.
#
GWG
I have a patch in 4.4. But two more were punted. Hoping to have more when 4.5 comes.
#
GWG
All related to webmentions
#
GWG
Or rather, my annoyance at the notifications about them.
#
aaronpk
hmm the wiki might not be caching the cache URLs as aggressively as I had hoped
#
aaronpk
got a huge increase in archiving API usage yesterday after enabling that
#
GWG
aaronpk, will the wiki be updated to reflect mp-url and replace or is that still under discussion?
#
GWG
How do these things close?
#
aaronpk
ideally someone (or two people) would make an implementation that uses mp-url and replace to sanity check it with real-world experience
#
aaronpk
i already updated my new micropub endpoint, but it's not deployed anywhere yet
mlncn joined the channel
#
voxpelli
aaronpk: I think the main issue is to find two clients that supports editing :P
#
aaronpk
that would be ideal yes :)
#
voxpelli
I don't know any clients that supports editing?
#
aaronpk
that's coming up on my list for Quill soon, but not until i launch my new site
#
voxpelli
one thing I wonder about editing, now I may just be forgetting stuff since I haven't worked on Micropub for a while, is how to get the initial data to do the edit on
#
voxpelli
are one expected to parse that as mf2 from a public:ish URL?
#
aaronpk
parsing from the mf2 is certainly one way, but only works for simple content, since it's quite likely the output is rendered different from the source material
#
aaronpk
for example most people don't author the html content they display in notes, since they use autolinkers to turn plain URLs into <a> tags
#
aaronpk
i think we had tossed around the idea of querying the micropub endpoint to return the original source for the post
snarfed joined the channel
#
petermolnar
GWG: I've just realized I've put in a ticket to WP, adding one single line: https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/33003
#
petermolnar
it's been 3 months, and even I forgot about it...
j12t joined the channel
#
voxpelli
aaronpk: querying was my thought as well, but couldn't remember ever coming across it in the wiki
#
voxpelli
I almost have a generic/pluggable query mechanism in place for my endpoint though
#
voxpelli
that could be extended to do eg. that
#
aaronpk
yeah, not sure how that didn't end up on the wiki
#
aaronpk
it would basically be something like mp-url=xxxx&q=source
#
aaronpk
or q=original
#
kylewm
aaronpk: does Monocle support reposts (the special handling we're talking about on github)?
#
voxpelli
aaronpk: +1 on that
#
kylewm
I'm leaning toward adding support for reposts to Woodwind as my hackday project, they've had me stymied for quite a while
#
aaronpk
kylewm: i thought so, but i'm not totally sure now
#
aaronpk
i know i'm parsing out the repost-of URL if it's there
#
snarfed
kylewm: planning >1mo out, that's admirable :P
#
kylewm
hahaha
#
kylewm
snarfed: planning <1 day out hasn't worked out too well for me in the past two IWCs i've been to ;)
#
aaronpk
heh yeah i have no idea what i'm gonna do for hack day yet, cause it depends so much on how much i finish before then!
#
aaronpk
planning <1 day ahead has worked great for me cause i always end up doing something i never would have planned on doing ahead of time
#
snarfed
i have a bunch of ideas, but the best so far is probably still getting more of the community projects onto indieauth-to-github and push-to-deploy
#
aaronpk
kylewm: oh that is definitely not native repost support
#
snarfed
but there's a good chance aaronpk will convert the rest of them before then:P
#
aaronpk
the rest of them?! hah
#
aaronpk
there is a good chance i will get the indieauth-to-github done before
#
snarfed
i guess the first step is enumerating them :P
#
snarfed
at least the truly community-owned ones
#
kylewm
I'm pretty proud that my repost markup looks that good in your reader

btw i've been calling indieauth-to-github + push-to-deploy "radically open coding" in other correspondence

if you mean twtr.io, it's third party

ah yes

aaronpk
but they also support "statuses" and "status" in the permalink

aaronpk
and yes twtr.io is a very small php script i wrote
#
snarfed
i wonder if mod_rewrite et al have the right string functions (base64 etc) to let you do it entirely in rewrite rules

snarfed
probably not

aaronpk
you could do it in nginx with a Lua script

singpolyma
snarfed: I mean /status/ vs /statuses/

snarfed
aaronpk: still code though!

so is a mod_rewrite rule ;)

the whole thing would be a repost no?
#
aaronpk
it's not a repost if you're adding stuff to it
#
KartikPrabhu
then it is a quote
#
KartikPrabhu

"But Times blogs run on a different publishing platform from the rest of the Times website, and eventually we realized they were creating a lot of extra work."

gRegorLove, we used to have a small community site with an insame number of forum posts which thankfully went down as read-only
#
petermolnar
still present, but no interaction allowed anymore
#

this is probably a way to go for sites like the one you've mentioned
#
gRegorLove

what about posts like https://singpolyma.net/actionstream/do-you-use-symbolic-links-care-to-share-what-for/ -- I mean, I realise in an ideal world I would have the content of the comment there, and it would be a reply with an in-contact citation (I think) -- but as-is it's not *really* a reply... more like an action update...
