I feel I have to learn more Javascript.
#
GWG
Which is a shame because I like working with PHP. But I need to be able to query my PHP code from the frontend.

[eddie]
JavaScript is a great language to learn better 😄
#
[eddie]

#
GWG
Well, for now, I want to figure out how to provide an alternative to HTML5 geolocation.
[miklb] joined the channel
#
[miklb]
GWG have you looked at wp_localize_script?
#
[miklb]
it allows you to pass php variables that are accessible in JS
#
GWG
[miklb]: I know.
#
[miklb]
you know what it does but haven’t looked at it? I’m confused
#
GWG
I haven't started trying to design my solution
#
[eddie]
Hmmm, interesting. I haven’t done anything with geolocation data without using HTML5's geolocation api
#
GWG
[eddie]: I got the idea from aaronpk. If his Micropub posts don't come with location, he queries his Compass server for his location
#
GWG
I want to support something similar
#
aaronpk
there are not a lot of options
#
GWG
aaronpk: How so?
#
GWG
The options I want to support are: Query the browser or query the server
#
aaronpk
just that there are a limited number of options for finding the user's location without asking the browser
#
GWG
aaronpk: Yes. But my design will be just to build in the option of it asking for location...and then anyone could tell it where to look
#
GWG
I already decided where I want to look
#
[eddie]
ohhh that makes sense
#
GWG
The way I built weather and location, it uses an abstract class, so any provider can be written.

this is bizarre, everything works fine locally, even with urls pointing to my remote server but it doesn't chooch remotely
#
krup
feels like a permissions problem...
#
aaronpk
sounds likely. can you check the server error log?
#
krup
hmm server log is empty
#
krup
this is peculiar
#
krup
what would cause the server to not be able to return the posts itself by my local machine be able to pull the posts from the server...
[kevinmarks] and renem joined the channel
#
krup
so i sorted that out.. but and i was able to post succesfully several times, but now i am returning the "me" value in authentication token error
#
krup
oops
#
krup
i was logged into the wrong domain
#
krup
but i am still getting the location header error
#
aaronpk
gotta track down why the code isn't getting far enough to the line that sends the header then
#
aaronpk
it could be anything, there isn't much I can help with without looking at code
#
krup
are you refering to the code in my endpoint?
#
krup
ah
#
krup
well i fixed it, looks like a typo :S
#
krup
thanks for being patient

Experimentation continues with IndieWeb projects – over to Webmentions. It is a really wonderful concept which enables responses to a post to be written on one’s own website. As Jeremy Keith wrote in one of his posts: Basically, it’s an equivalent to pingback. Let’s say I w…

I have enabled an extremely basic processing and display of two types of posts - likes and replies. However, am still not sure the possible activity types as responses from http://webmention.io in documentation. Any idea aaronpk? #journal

KartikPrabhu: weird slack bridge integration. We should probably disable the ability to comment on uploads in slack because it doesn’t seem to bridge to irc well
#
[eddie]
Darn I don’t think it can be disabled :(

dgold, question: why is your RSS feed a full-text feed, and the JSON feed only summaries? Any reason?
#
GWG
I wonder what it would take to build a Compass like thing into my site

GWG: it’s really about just storing the data. The API endpoints are super simple: https://github.com/aaronpk/Compass/blob/master/README.md#api
#
GWG
I am trying to decide what I want to store and where

GWG
I always plan long before I implement

aaronpk
sometimes I wish I could make ios layouts with CSS
#
aaronpk
this interface builder stuff is beyond me most of the time
#
GWG
I believe nothing is beyond you, aaronpk.
#
aaronpk
I wish that were true
#
GWG
aaronpk, I know it isn't, but you are far enough ahead of me that it seems that way
#
dgold
aaronpk: in overland - the bikey thing on the homescreen
#
dgold
how can I change that to a car?
#
aaronpk
long-press on it
#
aaronpk
also if you long-press the coordinates it will copy them to the clipboard :)
#
dgold
If only there were some sort of format for putting all these tidbits of information in one accessible place!
#
dgold
(not meant to be snarky)
#
aaronpk
nobody reads the manual anyway
#
dgold
I don't understand the setting screen at all
#
aaronpk
did you read the manual?

[aaronpk] Overland-iOS: 📌 GPS logger for iOS devices
#
dgold
oh, yes, I did
#
dgold
but e.g. Activity Type - it means very little
#
aaronpk
yes, all we really know is 'According to Apple, "The location manager uses the information in this property as a cue to determine when location updates may be automatically paused.".'
#
dgold
and I can't follow if (say) hitting automotive sets a different configuration
#
aaronpk
those first four toggles just set various properties on the iOS CoreLocation API, so it's a bit of a black box
#
dgold
ahhhhh
#
dgold
I thought it was a toggleable-set
#
aaronpk
there is a property in iOS called "activityType" with the possible values "Other", "Fitness", "Automotive" and "Navigation"
#
dgold
as in Walking: High Freq/High Certainty Automotive: Low Freq/Low Cert &c
#
aaronpk
apple doesn't really tell us much about what the settings do
#
dgold
that's vv annoying
#
dgold
oh, aaronpk, another overland question:
#
dgold
why if I set accuracy to other than Nav/Best can I not set a defer loc update?
#
dgold
note that I'm not hugely concerned about this - just curious
#
aaronpk
gah xcode keeps freezing
#
aaronpk
"Because deferred updates use the GPS to track location changes, the location manager allows deferred updates only when GPS hardware is available on the device and when the desired accuracy is set to kCLLocationAccuracyBest or kCLLocationAccuracyBestForNavigation."
#
dgold
evil apple's fault

aaronpk: let me know if you ever have questions about interface builder. I’d be happy to help. I love interface builder, though it is sometimes a little frustrating
#
[eddie]
Oh no, what happened?
#
aaronpk
there's just weird space appearing
#
aaronpk
it might help if I had ever read any tutorials about autolayouts and constraints instead of just poking around :P
#
[eddie]
It’s awesome
#
aaronpk
i'll take a look, but that's more than I can handle right now :P
#
aaronpk
also xcode keeps freezing up when I make really minor changes
#
[eddie]
Makes sense, good luck! :) it’s good to have in your back pocket. The classes are pretty good at being topical so when I’m having issues in a specific area I’ll re-watch a video in that topic area.
#
[eddie]
That’s junk about the freezing in Xcode :(

#
aaronpk
want to do me a huge favor? take a look at this and fix up the layout issues? it's a pretty simple view structure, all done in IB not in code. :)
#
[eddie]
Sure 👌
#
[eddie]
Is it in the main branch or a side branch?
#
aaronpk
main branch, i'm writing up an issue to point out the specific things

Thanks!

aaronpk
i just did a few things to the internals that I want to push out to the App Store

aaronpk
then I got an idea for this new design and went for it, probably should have just left it alone :-P

I don’t know why Xcode would be lagging like that. Lol. I’m definitely on the way towards getting it fixed up. But I’m headed to out dinner so I’ll see if I can fix it up after
