[manton]I’m bummed that the Foursquare export doesn’t seem to work anymore. I’m planning to remove the Foursquare import feature in Micro.blog and replace it with… something. Maybe just hitting the API.
[schmarty]The only "handling" around incoming files on my Micropub endpoint is if a client doesn't support media endpoint and uploads them directly to my Micropub endpoint. In that case it'll upload and use the new URL.
aaronpkso the next question is whether i should build in any sort of state into this script. right now it publishes all the checkins in one go, and has no way to keep track of whether a checkin has already been published
aaronpkyeah i think i'm going to end up scripting the edits for a few of the main ones i am finding, but there isn't even a good way to know if a venue has been renamed
aaronpkyeah it's useful for like fixing typos, but often people will rename a restaurant/bar when it gets changed to something else even tho you could argue that it's a totally different venue now
[manton]One of the things I’m working on is automatically organizing check-ins by state or country into categories… Still have a lot of data to sift through but it’s nice if I remember I went somewhere but can’t remember when or where exactly. 🙂 e.g. https://manton.coffee/categories/washington-dc/
[manton]Yeah, there are probably lots of little edge cases… All I really want is to be able to say “show me places in Oregon I’ve been to” and scroll through. A nice overview map would be a bonus but probably not worth it for me.
[manton]I really wish I had my check-ins from Gowalla circa 2008 or whenever. All that data is gone. (Silos!) I didn’t switch to Foursquare until 2010.
[schmarty]this is great because i had used perkeep (previously: camlistore) to backup my 4sq checkins, because it has a pretty good importer that uses the API. however, i always find it challenged to get stuff _out_ of camlistore so this is like 100x faster. 😅
[schmarty]haha, _yeeeessss_. all ownyourswarm checkins on my site have a syndication URL which includes the checkin ID as the last path segment. this should be something i can script up without too much heartbreak.
[schmarty]ha, or i could just move aside all checkins after 2017, which is when i set up ownyourswarm. previously i heavily used 4sq from 2009-2012 and then _stopped for five years._
[jacky]random thought: is it bad to have a IndieAuth service _adjust_ scopes after the fact? Like I can imagine that as a client, if an action was randomly unauthorized and it hasn't expired yet that refreshing the token's information and/or asking for a new one isn't a bad idea
[jacky]I ask because I want to have my endpoint potentially adjust the permissions upstream (like if I realize that I don't want to allow something to upload to my site anymore)
batkin[m] Awesome!
aaronpk would anyone care to try this out? visit https://foursquare.com/developers/apps and let me know if you have a way to make an app
[schmarty] aaronpk: my site would use the photo URLs in the Micropub request as-is.
jamietanna Aaronpk I require `photo`s to be from a set of domains I trust so often it's better to just upload it
