jacky
been on a refactoring spree with koype
#
jacky
a bit premature but now I have a base for submitting h-cards to it
#
jacky
which would be nice for having a nickname cache

I assume the reasons to post has a strong and direct correlation with the number of people in the world

Morning [sknebel]

No time to play 8:00 basketball game an hour a way... Back to building h-resume later

Been having some fun looking at the history of my indieweb posting: https://doubleloop.net/2018/12/16/two-spikes-in-my-posting-history/

I'm trying to work on something to store h-cards in my system
#
jacky
but I wanna make it simple to search
#
jacky
I think storing their nickname, given name and site as indexable fields would be good to store
#
jacky
then storing any other bits of data to non-database places
#
jgmac1106
[jacky] can you copy what [grantcodes] did? [eddie] has a nickname cache as well
#
jgmac1106
really why I like the idea of a community h-card phonebook, you sign in with indieauth, you get added, people can use those…this way images and links stay updated
#
Zegnat
jacky, by site you mean URL? That does sound like it would cover most ways you would try to look up a person
wolftune joined the channel
#
jacky
so like I won't be remembering people's URIs all of the time
#
jacky
but I might remember your IRC nickname or first name
#
jacky
I think I'm optimizing for search right now
#
jacky
but yeah [eddie]'s nickname cache is a bit what I'm leaning towards
#
jacky
I think "address book" might be more of the colloquial term
#
jacky
like something I can use to view someone's whole h-card but from my site
#
jacky
imma scratch some notes onto the wiki
#
Zegnat
“whole h-card”. I am looking forward to people indexing my whole h-card!

ancarda once talked about customising its display style based on my Hogwarts house. So many options! :D
kb_ joined the channel
#
jacky
ooooh _that's_ cool lol
#
jacky
hmm I don't know if I want to use `uid` in h-cards
#
jacky
as an actual uid
leg and iasai joined the channel
#
ancarda
Zegnat: haha, yeah I was thinking of showing a little shield that changed color or something. So green for you, yellow for me, etc..
#
Zegnat
Still one of the coolest ideas I have heard on displaying people’s h-cards :D
#
ancarda
I only built a basic hovercard implementation ages ago. I've been too busy with other stuff to work further on it
#
ancarda
Thanks :)
#
ancarda
jacky: My hovercards look like this: https://indieweb.org/File:markdain-hovercards-v1-indieweb.png -- not the best code, but they look OK I think
#
ancarda
I'd like to add more, but then they might be overwhelming. Hard to get a good balance
#
ancarda
I think a future implementation may have the photo & name on the left, giving a few more rows for information on the right; so a horizontal layout

I am getting this error trying to log into Monocle any suggestions?

#
aaronpk
what error?
iasai joined the channel
#
jacky
that's solid @ancarda! I didn't even consider that
#
ancarda
I’m glad you like it jacky

#
[kim_landwehr]
Sorry, this is the error I am getting.
#
jacky
notes to [kim_landwehr] that if they got a GitHub account, reporting it to https://github.com/aaronpk/monocle helps as well!

[aaronpk] Monocle: Monocle is a reader app that talks to a Microsub server
#
KartikPrabhu
looks like the slack bridge is not transmitting whatever error [kim_landwehr] is posting
#
KartikPrabhu
maybe a image?
#
jacky
probably
#
KartikPrabhu
looks like a http vs https in the token stuff
#
KartikPrabhu
maybe Loqi's slack bridge can post the URL of the images it gets to IRC ?
#
sknebel
it does, but slack changed the API and nobody has patched it yet
#
KartikPrabhu
sounds like a nice little project to fill up the indieweb calendar for someone who knows slack api things
