tantek
gRegorLove: hmm - I'd consider live selfdogfooding kind of a prereq for either of those
#
tantek
without that as a requirement, there's too many "fragile to maintain your own site" projects that I wouldn't want to steer people toward
#
tantek
I think I'm done enough with work things for the day that I want to find a quiet someplace else to write a bunch of posts - anybody want to meetup in a local cafe?
#
GWG
tantek: I think I'll skip tonight.
#
GWG
I'm worried about the traffic
#
gRegorLove
tantek: That's fair. I guess my perspective is kind of that regardless of whether the author uses it on his own site, I'm going to be the one in the community offering help to people getting set up. The indieweb Site Profile ProcessWire add-on will be a good step in that direction though.
#
tantek
ah - that makes a big difference gRegorLove
#
tantek
and possibly something we should indicate on each projrect
#
tantek
community support on IRC: ...
#
tantek
with people that are willing to help people with that project in particular
#
gRegorLove
ProcessWire is a kind of interesting case, since it's more of a framework to build various types of sites on (blog, portfolio, whatever you want) rather than "Here's a blog" a la WordPress
#
gRegorLove
I'll work on that site profile first, so there's a much easier "first step with ProcessWire"
#
tantek
it's still a "CMS" right?
#
aaronpk
gRegorLove: is ProcessWire like Laravel then? or does it actually do something out of the box?
#
Loqi
aaronpk: [barryf] left you a message 2 hours, 13 minutes ago: I've submitted a webmention PR for /Transformative when you've got a second to check.
#
aaronpk
barryf++ thanks!
#
Loqi
barryf has 4 karma
#
gRegorLove
Author markets it as a CMS / CMF (content management framework)
#
gRegorLove
Haven't used Laravel, but think it's more than that. It manages user logins, a hierarchy of pages, and an API for use in the template files (or third party scripts)
#
aaronpk
ah k, yeah that sounds more CMS-y than Laravel
#
miklb
hopes to add Habari to that list someday
#
KartikPrabhu
there is always the experimental section to list your project
#
gRegorLove
What I find the most powerful about it is the way templates work. Each template has a collection of fields and it's easy to add new fields. So I can add a new post type or stream of posts pretty easily.
#
tantek
what are templates?
#
Loqi
A template is a file used to generate a page https://indieweb.org/templates
#
tantek
that definition could probably be improved ;)
#
miklb
KartikPrabhu as soon as I have some experimental features I will
#
TheGillies
what is webfinger
#
Loqi
WebFinger is a discovery protocol for the web that uses email address-like identifiers to get info about users; it has been largely superseded on the indieweb by the use of personal web sites and representative h-card https://indieweb.org/WebFinger
#
tantek
gRegorLove: perhaps if you think ProcessWire is a particularly good example of how to do templates, you could note something there
#
TheGillies
I wrote a webfinger library last night, was wondering if it had a place in indieweb, I guess that's my answer
#
tantek
TheGillies, more importantly, does it have a place on your website?
#
KartikPrabhu
TheGillies: you can still add it to that page if you use it yourself
#
TheGillies
I'm building a hybrid indieweb/ostatusy site
#
tantek
TheGillies, is it in progress on your personal site? (which is totally ok)
#
TheGillies
webfist sound naughty
#
tantek
TheGillies: I believe that was deliberate on the part of Brad
#
tantek
(humor value that is)
#
TheGillies
tantek: Yeah it's definitely "in progress" it doesn't actually return anything except the acct uri right now heh
#
KartikPrabhu
what is php?
#
Loqi
PHP is a programming language and web server runtime environment used for many IndieWeb projects https://indieweb.org/PHP
#
tantek
Does anyone have any web hosting companies they use and like outside the US?
#
tantek
Maybe I should ask in the morning when the Europeans are awake
#
miklb
I've not used them, but have heard good things about http://gandi.net/
#
KartikPrabhu
webfaction.com
#
tantek
miklb - yes, for domain registration, I've heard and seen good things about gandi.net and they're based in France
#
tantek
miklb do you know anyone using them for web hosting though?
#
miklb
tantek not personally
#
TheGillies
meh webfist email isn't going through :(

aaronpk
just tried Facebook Live for the first time. it's kinda neat
#
aaronpk
makes me tempted to try to do that on my own site
wolftune, begriffs and awolf joined the channel
#
TheGillies
aaronpk: Is it just live broadcasting?
#
bignose
it couldn't be, because Facebook isn't a media company, no no no
#
bignose
“Facebook, meanwhile, like a child standing over a broken vase declaring that he didn’t break the vase and that the vase isn’t broken and also, what vase, continues to maintain that it is not a media company.” <URL: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/nov/14/fake-news-donald-trump-election-alt-right-social-media-tech-companies>
leg and awolf joined the channel
#
TheGillies
kinda steep though 40 cents an hour
#
TheGillies
I mean not horrible but meh
#
aaronpk
Yeah but after the live stream ends it turns into a video post on my timeline
#
aaronpk
It seems like a good use for updating a post via micropub
#
aaronpk
I've seen some tutorials for using nginx for broadcasting a live stream and then save a file to disk... getting some ideas here
#
TheGillies
aaronpk: What streaming software would you use to livestream?
#
TheGillies
oh nginx?
#
TheGillies
interesting

sknebel
what is live streaming?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "live streaming" yet. Would you like to create it?
#
sknebel
what is video streaming?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "video streaming" yet. Would you like to create it?
#
sknebel
what is streaming?
#
Loqi
streaming is a method of content delivery where the user starts viewing a post on a site, typically timed media, and when it finishes, the site may automatically start showing another, either by scrolling or playing https://indieweb.org/streaming
#
aaronpk
Huh, that's a different kind of streaming
gRegorLove joined the channel
#
sknebel
but the rest of the page talks about live streaming
#
sknebel
oh, no
#
sknebel
it doesn't

fetches a morning coffee, it seems needed

oh no it's already morning!

aaronpk: open in vlc: rtmp://54.188.76.170/live/livestream
#
TheGillies
it's my AWS adobe media server instance heh
#
TheGillies
they charge you 5 bucks a month on top of the hourly rate, meh kind of a racket
#
TheGillies
everywhere else is like 70 bucks a month and not hourly though
bravetrvlr and snarfed joined the channel
#
sknebel
I think it deserves a separate page (since /streaming showed e.g. netflix as an example, which is clearly different), so I un-redirected https://indieweb.org/live_streaming (cc gRegorLove)
#
gRegorLove
/livestreaming should go there too
#
sknebel
just did

Good Morning Zegnat, just btw : the Mozilla Cups are papermade but I saved one for you. UTC-05:00

Wow, that’s awesome! Thanks sl007! If you are ever in NL, let me know and we’ll go have coffee

Ah, So I can hopefully join in from work for the start. Thanks for the timezone reminder
#
ben_thatmustbeme
offline caching now turned on for https://inklings.io/inkstone
#
ben_thatmustbeme
need to ask KevinMarks to file an issue for that problem he has had with loging in via known
#
Zegnat
ben_thatmustbeme: "Unhandled rejection TypeError: data.auth_endpoint.indexOf is not a function." ?
#
ben_thatmustbeme
oh, not good
#
KevinMarks
Will do - it didn't like the redirect to the account page
#

KevinMarks: tantek left you a message 1 day, 3 hours ago: HWC SF this week? Did you get in touch with sdepolo / GoDaddy? https://indieweb.org/events/2016-11-16-homebrew-website-club#Where
#
ben_thatmustbeme
Zegnat, what browser is that?
#
Zegnat
Safari
#
Zegnat
Really, I just clicked your link and tried to login. Nothing happened. Then checked the console and saw the quoted warning.

#
ben_thatmustbeme
have you ever logged on to it before?
#
ben_thatmustbeme
i know i showed it off a few times here and there
#
Zegnat
ben_thatmustbeme, no, this was the first time. Just clicked and entered my domain.
#
Zegnat
I wasn’t even actually going to use it, was just wondering what would happen.
#
ben_thatmustbeme
its a bug either way
#
ben_thatmustbeme
something i want to look in to
#
ben_thatmustbeme
thanks for the info
#
gRegorLove
If any MIT2 attendees have session proposals, https://indieweb.org/2016/MIT2/Sessions is set up now.
#
ben_thatmustbeme
i'm guessing its having trouble discovering your auth / mp endpoints
#
ben_thatmustbeme
i need to have better errors for that
#
aaronpk
errorhandling++
#
Loqi
errorhandling has 1 karma
#
ben_thatmustbeme
well rather, i have error messages, but they didn't get triggered oddly
#
ben_thatmustbeme
I'll have to reproduce it somewhere and inspect the net traffic
#
Zegnat
It might be because I don’t even have any endpoints set-up ;)
#
ben_thatmustbeme
ah, that would do it
#
Zegnat
Feel free to enter http://vanderven.se/martijn/ to reproduce
#
Loqi
Martijn van der Ven h
#
KevinMarks
If I login with "Kevinmarks.com " it says no endpoint
#
aaronpk
need an indieauth test suite :)
#
KevinMarks
Which is right, my mistake
#
KevinMarks
If I login with known it says "http://Known.kevinmarks.com" does not match the logged in user "http://known.kevinmarks.com/profile/kevinmarks".
#
Zegnat
Falling asleep at my screen. Good to find my IRC working again. Will check in for the live stream tomorrow! Have a good time all
#
ben_thatmustbeme
not running the catch statement at all... crazy
#
gRegorLove
Blank page with JS off, ben_thatmustbeme.
snarfed and snarfed1 joined the channel
#
aaronpk
it's a JS app, that's to be expected :)
#
ben_thatmustbeme
still i should have no noscript info in there
#
gRegorLove
Sure, though I thought it was broken for a moment until I remembered I had it off temporarily

Login worked
#
gRegorLove
Oh wow, all the settings. Nice
KartikPrabhu joined the channel
#
ben_thatmustbeme
yeah, i went a bit overboard on settings
#
ben_thatmustbeme
but you can add your own custom fields
#
ben_thatmustbeme
hmm, thats supposed to just relay to your micropub endpoint with ?q=syndicate-to
#
gRegorLove
And "Unhandled rejection Error: Error connecting to InkStone Server : Unexpected token e in JSON at position 4 https://inklings.io/inkstone/scripts/app-bundle.js"
#
gRegorLove
Yeah, my endpoint is really basic, probably 401s that request.
#
gRegorLove
Need to get back to that and get up to speed with micropub
#
ben_thatmustbeme
yeah, this is all on the latest spec of it
#
ben_thatmustbeme
i'm not as happy with the new logo though
#
ben_thatmustbeme
can see the other names i have planned http://inklings.io/img/svg/
#
gRegorLove
On create post, is the first icon supposed to say "note" instead of "name"?
sl007 joined the channel
#
ben_thatmustbeme
its the mp-field names
#
ben_thatmustbeme
so "name" = Title
#
ben_thatmustbeme
i should change those
#
ben_thatmustbeme
go in to settings and you'll see what i mean
#
ben_thatmustbeme
its using Field Name instead of Label on the left side
#
ben_thatmustbeme
I'm not really happy with the UI on it
#
ben_thatmustbeme
oh and any modifications you do to the settings, is not cleared when you log out
#
ben_thatmustbeme
only personal info is
#
ben_thatmustbeme
so if you remove fields from the settings page, or add new ones
#
ben_thatmustbeme
installing your own copy I tried to keep really easy as well
#
ben_thatmustbeme
thats something i'm really going to try for with inkwell (pubsub hub i'm building)
