FB changed their event permalink page design again!

I'm seeing a single narrower center column of event info (much smaller header image), then left column is their calendar/events menu, right column is "related events"

!tell aaronpk there is a bug in chat.indieweb.org: https://chat.indieweb.org/2017-02-12 -> urls under all "#" after 16:00 are for 2017-02-13 - I'm sniffing timezone errors here
#
Loqi
Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
dgold joined the channel
#
Zegnat
I think all URLs are normalised to UTC, and only presented in your local timezone on the front end. Something like that.
Pierre-O joined the channel
#
petermolnar
well, it doesn't work as it should

click on them and see where you end up

Aaronpk I have the plugin to allow POSSE to Twitter from WithKnown, but I do not understand how I can get Quill to see that as a Syndication target.
#
jeremycherfas
Thank you petermolnar. My problem is that I don’t actually understand what I need to DO.
#
petermolnar
when quill queries your site for the micropub endpoint it also queries for syndication list
#
petermolnar
you need to respond to that with a list
#
petermolnar
if you can, listed in to the incoming requests (web server access log will help) and see the incoming things
#
jeremycherfas
Right. So how do I ensure that this site — which uses WithKnown — will respond properly?
#
petermolnar
you need make it respont to [micropub endpoint]?q=syndicate-to with your list of supported syndications
#
petermolnar
who is jeremycherfas?
#
petermolnar
you don't seem to have a micropub endpoint in your header
#
jeremycherfas
I’m checking the documentation now https://indieweb.org/Known
#
petermolnar
how can you log in to quill?
#
Zegnat
See https://indieweb.org/Known#How_to_use_Quill - looks like you need a separate plugin for micropub
#
cweiske
no, it's in the core
#
cweiske
question is if it's enabled
#
jeremycherfas
I have a micropub plugin in the core, called IndiePub 0.2, and it is enabled.
#
jeremycherfas
Says it must have a single-user theme, so I better check that.
#
jeremycherfas
I switched to Solo, which says it is a single-user theme, and that does not appear to have made any difference.
#
jeremycherfas
Petermolnar, there is a micropub endpoint in the header for stream.jeremycherfa.net and Quill is able to publish to the site.
#
petermolnar
wget -O- http://stream.jeremycherfas.net/micropub/endpoint?q=syndicate-to - this gives me error 403 forbidden, so I can't see what it returns
#
jeremycherfas
Does that mean I need to change permissions
#
petermolnar
I'm guessing it's working fine, I'm not authenticated
#
jeremycherfas
I know I am a bit out of my depth here, but not sure whether this is an issue for Known or for Quill.

#
petermolnar
jeremycherfas it's really hard to tell without seeing what's coming in and what's the response for that
#
petermolnar
but in theory, it should be working
#
jeremycherfas
That would be in my logs, right?
KevinMarks joined the channel
#
jeremycherfas
Problem is, I seem to have logs only from yesterday, not today. Need to check again.
#
jeremycherfas
Nope, sorry. Found it. Taking a look now.
#
petermolnar
so if you see what's coming in you can replicate that and see what the response is, for example, with curl or wget
#
jeremycherfas
This is what I see in the log:
#
jeremycherfas
173.230.155.197 - - [13/Feb/2017:04:44:00 -0800] "GET /micropub/endpoint?q=syndicate-to HTTP/1.1" 200 16940 "-" "-"
#
petermolnar
yeah, that doesn't log the authorization header, without it it's hard to replicate the call
#
jeremycherfas
Is the authorization header the access token?
#
jeremycherfas
I can see only the first 5 digits of that.
#
petermolnar
ok, I'm getting confused as well.
#
jeremycherfas
Well, maybe we should take a break and hope that aaronpk will be along and maybe able to help. :)
#
jeremycherfas
Thanks for your help
#
petermolnar
!tell aaronpk should 'syndicate-to' and 'config' requests be authorized? As in: should the client include authorization in the header and can the endpoint request this?
#
Loqi
Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
#
petermolnar
because this seems to be the problem with the known indiepub
#
petermolnar
https://github.com/idno/Known/blob/master/IdnoPlugins/IndiePub/Pages/MicroPub/Endpoint.php#L58 calls 'gatekeeper()' , which, as far as I understand, is doing the auth checking
dgold joined the channel
#
petermolnar
so this seems to be an undocumented on both sides
#
jeremycherfas
It has long been an issue but this issue is now closed. https://github.com/idno/Known/issues/519
#
jeremycherfas
I wonder if it has something do do with Convoy.
#
cweiske
are you using the latest known Known version?
#
jeremycherfas
Latest package release 0.9.2
#
jeremycherfas
I’ve tried disabling Convoy, and I get a message saying it has been uninstalled, but it keeps showing as enabled.
nitot joined the channel
#
jeremycherfas
OK, even with Convoy out of the way, Quill still doesn’t find my Syndication targets.

Hey #indieweb, me and Ncollig will be launching our first indieweb event in Brussels 2/03/2017, right now we operated on meetup/facebook to build-up community, since the whole indieweb concept is pretty much unknown around here.
arush joined the channel
#
rMdes
but I was looking over at the wiki and see that the event page is being used a lot by different meetups, do we have any guidelines or how-to about how to add new events on the wiki ?
#
rMdes
I want to make sure Brussels gets in the wiki, but I wanted to adopt the best work-flow, if you have any experience working with the wiki for event, I would love to read and get inspired by how others in the community organize their own events

#
Loqi
morning!
#
aaronpk
yes the client should authenticate the request for config or syndication targets because they might be dependent on the user
nikivi joined the channel
#
jeremycherfas
Aaronpk I know that finding the syndication targets in a Known install was a problem before, but has it been solved? I can’t find anything to suggest how this could be done.
#
aaronpk
I don't really know the state of known's micropub support
#
jeremycherfas
OK. I’ll open an issue with Known.
#
aaronpk
rMdes: first step would be adding it to the list on /events so that there's at least a link to it and so that it shows up in the newsletter
#
aaronpk
then you could also make a separate event page if you want. Are these different than the Homebrew Website Club events?

Open Source Bridge is an annual open source conference in Portland Oregon where many indieweb talks have been given over the years. http://opensourcebridge.org/
#
tantek
hmm http://opensourcebridge.org/ doesn't have dates for 2017, that's a bit odd right? usually CFPs are due soon right?
#
tantek
aaronpk: any idea what's up with OSBridge this year?
#
Loqi
ok, I added "[[events/2014-06-24-indieauth-at-osbridge]]" to the "See Also" section of /Open Source Bridge
#
Loqi
ok, I added "/webactions#2012" to the "See Also" section of /Open Source Bridge

ok, I added "[[2012/Open_Checkins]]" to the "See Also" section of /Open Source Bridge
#

i haven't heard anything about it yet

wonders if he should ask in the #osbridge channel

you will probably get a response from someone there!

IIRC it wasn't actually a very good plugin, and was also relatively simple. i started from https://github.com/SSilence/selfoss/blob/master/spouts/rss/feed.php and adapted it to parse mf2 instead of RSS

I would add an extra fix: limit the mime type only, but have a fix list of extension according to the mime type (reverse mime magic table). The reason why it was executed is because it was called .php, and the php servers are usually configured to pick .php files up. If it was named at the original location x.php, but you renamed it according to the mime type as x.jpg, this would not have happened.
snarfed joined the channel
#
aaronpk
also i have learned to not check file extension from people's avatar URLs because some sites (like Known) use extensionless URLs for their images
#
sebsel
yeah, big files still scare me. Need to do something about that too. Setting the extension yourself sounds good, indeed. I was planning that too, but it was not what Bastian decided to do. Does not have to keep me from it though. The extensionless urls sound like a good reason to do so.
