[Rose] I think I can figure something out with Trakt->Zapier->MicroPub
#
[Rose] Also: https://rosemaryorchard.com/microblog/20190106-005929
#
[Rose] (I wrote my own micropub endpoint, and it works at least with Quill!)
#

#
Loqi Rose has 2 karma in this channel over the last year (11 in all channels)
#
[Rose] Thanks 😄
#
[Rose] It's rather crazy, the details belong in dev, however I doubt anyone else will take this entirely as is, except maybe [jeremycherfas] 😛
#
[Rose] And now, sleep!

#
[cleverdevil] Boom!
snarfed, wolftune and tomasparks joined the channel
#
[cleverdevil] Very pleased with this. Now I can use fancy iOS apps to mark shows and movies as watched and have them automatically recorded on my website.
#
[cleverdevil] This is going to make my monthly recaps even cooler!

#
[relapse] Inspired, started toying with a monthly recap page too. So far it just has my Code::Stats but... pretty graph.
#
jacky !tell [cleverdevil] do you use stuff like Trakt or TVShowTime for tracking? I've been using the former to handle my TV watching
#
Loqi Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
#
[relapse] I believe [cleverdevil] was using Trakt.

#
[cleverdevil] I just now started using Trakt, [Jacky_See].
#
[cleverdevil] Err Jacky
#
[cleverdevil] I paid for a Trakt Pro account, which gives me access to an Atom feed of my watch history.
#
[cleverdevil] I whipped up a quick script that I run periodically via cron which takes new watch notifications off the feed and creates entries for them on my website.
#
[cleverdevil] I currently use a Trakt client on iOS called Watcht, which is pretty decent so far.
#
jacky [cleverdevil]: Gotcha! Trakt's so worth the fee imo
ben_thatmustbeme joined the channel
#
[cleverdevil] Definitely. Trakt is awesome so far. I’m extremely impressed.
wolftune and [eddie] joined the channel
#
[eddie] I currently track what I eat and drink on my site. I’m thinking about building a health assistant that watches my eat/drink posts and if I have goals like “drink X water throughout the day” or something similar that I can have it push Notifications to my reader to be like “hey, drink some water!”
#
[eddie] It won’t be able to be SUPER detailed because I don’t drink nutrition info
#
[eddie] But it could comment on if I keep eating the same item all the time or am missing a log of a particular item that I want to consume
#
[cleverdevil] I’m still hoping to eventually hook into the iOS Health system and store outputs in my website (privately).
#
[cleverdevil] But, I’m not nearly enough of an iOS expert :P
sl007 joined the channel
#
[eddie] I definitely still want to do that. I feel like the storage in my website is the hurtle that holds me back. Haha I feel like I need to have a better idea of what that looks like within my website’s storage before I jump off that ledge
[tantek] joined the channel
#
[tantek] what in particular are you trying to store?
[metbril], KartikPrabhu and [eddie] joined the channel
#
[eddie] This could quickly turn dev lol but I feel safe discussing the type of info. How many steps I take (by hour by day but if it’s by day I would want to update periodically throughout the day), minutes of exercise by day, weight by day, sleep time by day,
#
[eddie] Lol and I just realized that was an hour after the fact. Oh well 🙂
#
[tantek] right, we can keep it at a high(er) level by talking about what you'd like to display/show on your posts
#
[eddie] It’s less about showing on the individual posts and more related to for example a daily, weekly or monthly recap
#
[tantek] sounds like you want either (or both?) exercise/weight/sleep actions, and a daily summary thereof
#
[eddie] Yes that sounds correct
#
[eddie] Probably both
#
[tantek] I think that's the harder (and more important) part to figure out - what do you want to show, and how often
#
[tantek] maybe even a rough sketch of what you'd like it to look like, just summary numbers, or graphs/charters
#
[tantek] charts* etc.
#
[eddie] Ahh interesting
#
[eddie] That’s a good question
#
[eddie] Definitely weight and sleep would likely be similar to a standard post that would show up in a stream
#
[tantek] maybe take a look at existing examples?
#
[tantek] what is weight
#
[tantek] what is sleep
#
Loqi sleep is a passive metrics post type that indicates how much time (and often a graph of how deeply) a person has slept https://indieweb.org/sleep
#
Loqi weight is a type of metrics post documenting the weight of a person at a specific time https://indieweb.org/weight
#
[eddie] I definitely think my idea of sleep mirrors aaronpk’s (as well as Apple’s and FitBit)
#
[eddie] Should probably get some screenshots of those on the sleep page
#
[tantek] yeah! that would be a good start
#
[tantek] If some aspects of those examples start to resonate with you, you could start to note them in a Brainstorming section on those page(s)
#
[eddie] That makes sense
#
[eddie] Then figure out the storage after the fact based on the desired outcome
#
[eddie] Which makes sense because I thought I wouldn’t want a step count to show up as a post, but if sleep shows up as a post after I finish sleeping, why would my step counts show up after I’ve been sedentary for a while
#
[eddie] And when I think about many common graphs that might appeal to me, I might need more granular step counts than by day
#
[eddie] But when I thought storage first it felt like anything more than by day was too complicated so I ruled it all out
#
[eddie] Thanks, tantek! Lots to think about 🤔

[Rose] Eddie are you a FitBit user too?

#
[relapse] Inspired by the status pages, grabbed a Trakt account and started my own monthly summary. https://vonexplaino.com/blog/posts/page/colin-random-stats.html?year_and_month=201901
catsup, anotheryou, ben_thatmustbeme, [voss] and [eddie] joined the channel
#
[eddie] [Rose] I’m an Apple Watch user, my wife is a FitBit user, which helps with familiarity on both 🙂
[xavierroy] joined the channel
#
[xavierroy] I've set up Keyring Social Importers and Post Kinds to post sleep data from Fitbit to my site as private posts
#
[eddie] That’s awesome [xavierroy]!
#
[xavierroy] For movies, I'm using a ifftt flow to pesos from lettrboxd. For TV shows, I really would love a ownyourtrakt option.

sl007 Hi everybody, I'll wait until the end of the week before cancelling https://indieweb.org/2019/Vlissingen - I expect 4 people including me [for now]. Want to prevent that it is "no success" it would be better to take the kids with me and make some holidays. It feels sad that you can fill a whole Amphitheatre by showing some photos and do many workshops there but nobody seems to be interested in coding together.
KartikPrabhu, [kevinmarks] and [Rose] joined the channel
#
[Rose] [eddie] - how are you automating the export? Or are you running the export manually?
mapkyca joined the channel
#
aaronpk wow that looks nice [grantcodes]!
[eddie] joined the channel
#
[eddie] [Rose] the health info? I’m not currently automating the export as I haven’t figured out what all I need and how often
#
[eddie] [Rose] The plan is to just build an iOS app that periodically sends the health info from HealthKit to my website once the destination info if figured out

#
[grantcodes] Hope to get test out today on github at least aaronpk
#
[grantcodes] Will be able to do a lot more cool stuff with the editor though! Like mentions and oembeds and stuff

#
[cleverdevil] Happy lazy Sunday, IndieWeb 🙂
#
[cleverdevil] Just got my Plex server scrobbling to Trakt!
#
[cleverdevil] (Which then causes history to show up on my website. Whee!)
#
jacky nice! full automation :)
#
[cleverdevil] Even better: when I play something on my Plex in my living room, and its after sunset, all of the lights dim automatically until I pause or stop 😉
[tantek] joined the channel
#
aaronpk nice! I hooked up that light thing too :)
#
aaronpk after sunset is a nice touch, might have to add that to mine
#
[cleverdevil] I also require my presence, since my wife hates the lights going on and off automatically 😄
#
aaronpk ooh how do you do that?
#
[cleverdevil] HomeKit rules.
#
aaronpk ah nice, I haven't actually used homekit
#
[cleverdevil] Its surprisingly good, especially if you install homebridge for custom stuff.
#
[cleverdevil] (This is how I power https://🐷.ws)
#
sknebel the bridge really doesn't like emoji urls it seems :D
#
sknebel (I assume you are talking about https://xn--cp8h2o.ws/ ?)
#
[cleverdevil] Yup!
#
[cleverdevil] I haven't used my smoker for a long cook in a while 😛
#
aaronpk i'm adding keyboard shortcuts to monocle in the hopes that it gets me to use the new post interface in it more
[kevinmarks] joined the channel
#
[kevinmarks] I have the small green egg but no automation
DenSchub_, KartikPrabhu and [eddie] joined the channel
#
[eddie] [Rose] sounds good. It’ll probably be a little slow going 🙂 Although I’ve definitely researched the HealthKit stuff and that’ll be pretty easy. I’ll definitely let you know when I have any progress.
[grantcodes] joined the channel
#
[grantcodes] aaronpk: Yes can confirm, keyboard controls are pretty great
#
[grantcodes] But I use them a lot more for just going back and forward items

#
aaronpk [grantcodes]: yeah I have them now for the account chooser as well as to bring up the "new post" screen!
#
aaronpk just launched
#
aaronpk Super not documented lol
#
[grantcodes] Mine neither, but there is a shortcut to show the shortcuts.
#
[grantcodes] You just need to figure out that one shortcut hah
