[grantcodes] Well I just mean if you build something you use yourself it is unlikely exporting is priority
#
[grantcodes] backup maybe, but export no
#
jacky to a degree
#
jacky I think if a site / platform was able to import a bunch of feeds
#
jacky I could export my site from it

#
KartikPrabhu [grantcodes]: some form of export is still useful, for instance if you switch the backend code used
eli_oat and [tantek] joined the channel
#
[tantek] or design your storage format to be an export format itself!
#
[tantek] so you always have a "live export"

GWG [miklb]: I am interested in an export tool. Just haven't written one
[miklb] joined the channel
#
[miklb] as I’ve mentioned, there’s export tools. Just not one that can handle the way the IW stuff is stored.
#
GWG I had wanted to update the mf2 feed tool.
#
GWG I thought that might be the best way
#
[miklb] I don’t know what the solution is, and don’t really care. Water under the bridge.
#
[miklb] Indieauth has been broken on my site for months and with it micropub. Bridgy seems to be the only thing that does work. But I’ve resisted rushing into another platform without thinking through how it’s built so I’m fully in control of how and what code I’m using in the future.
#
[miklb] not sure what I did, but it’s been regressing for the last year to the point of completely broken.
#
[miklb] which is a bummer because there was a time it all worked like magic.
#
prtksxna 😞I know that feeling

#
[jgmac1106] Micropub client as export tool...someone wants to build it
[manton], [KevinMarks] and [grantcodes] joined the channel
#
[grantcodes] Not a bad idea [jgmac1106] could even do micropub endpont queries to micropub posts on another endpoint for direct migration
#
jgmac1106 yeah been trying to /Sawyer that one for awhile….looking for that third product launch??
#
j4y_funabashi[m] [jgmac1106]: I am working on this now. When my site is built I run a program that pages through my micropub server GET q=source and saves the posts in Hugo front matter MD files
#
j4y_funabashi[m] Its a CLI micropub client
#
j4y_funabashi[m] It is sort of the reverse of his other static site micropub servers work
