How is that indieauth?
#
aaronpk
apparently "auth" is short for "author"
#
aaronpk
i feel like maybe you can just use the extra 2 characters but okay
#
GWG
I've never heard auth is short for author.
#
aaronpk
i hadn't either until these tweets
#
GWG
Maybe we're just not with it.

I'm new around here, just wrapping my head around indieweb auth (orization, not to be confused with or)
#
bergeron
and webmentions, etc.
#
aaronpk
oh i just realized i wrote about indieauth in a book so does that mean i count as 2x indieauth?
#
aaronpk
the book was self published too
#
bergeron
I don't think I auth'ed into here using my site's rel="me" element
#
bergeron
I have a u-photo, but it doesn't appear in this chat
#
bergeron
I think it may be because I used a relative path, not a canonical one
#
bergeron
(absolute, whateveR)
#
aaronpk
there's a few steps to all the parts to showing up in the wiki and chat logs and stuff ,but it should be documented here https://indieweb.org/wikifying#How_to_Join_the_IndieWeb_Wiki
#
bergeron
i'm checking it out now
#
bergeron

#
bergeron
Ok, I've created myself. Thanks for the link.
#
bergeron

!tell snarfed 200k documents indexed on IndieWeb search now! šŸŽ‰
#

Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next

sknebel++ for sharing that article.

what is searx?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "searx" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "searx is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
capjamesg[d]
Does anyone have any good readings on search rankings from a developer (not SEO, etc.) perspective? I'd love to chip away at relevance for IndieWeb Search this weekend.

capjamesg it's an entire generations-old academic research field šŸ˜ maybe start with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_retrieval ?

!tell jamietanna just fyi bridgy is still seeing >1500 publish re-attempts a day from your site for posts that were already published. totally ok, not hurting it at all, just checking in! šŸ˜

Loqi
Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next

[capjamesg] Tim Bray wrote a good into series of posts on search https://www.tbray.org/ongoing/When/200x/2004/11/26/SearchSort

capjamesg[d]
Thank you [KevinMarks]. I'll add that to my reading list.

Loved it!

jamietanna: Any tips on refresh token support? Want to implement it next.

snarfed I am working on adding support for featured snippets on the search engine. I had this on my blog search engine but the code wasn't entirely portable.
#
capjamesg[d]
Hope you can see this:
#
[snarfed]
I saw the post! nice!
#
capjamesg[d]
Thanks šŸ˜Š
#
capjamesg[d]
Now I need to think about what to do with likes: keep or no index?
#
capjamesg[d]
But Iā€™m not there yet actually. I just noticed something that might solve the problem I have.
#
angelo
got my python indieauth server talking PKCE to the wiki a couple weeks back.. just got my typescript webextension talking PKCE to my server..
#
Loqi
[angelogladding] webext-indieauth: WebExtension support for IndieAuth sign-in
#
angelo
still getting the hang of the JS ecosystem.. there's a CommonJS output in the release: https://github.com/angelogladding/webext-indieauth/releases/tag/0.0.7
#
angelo
GWG i'm in for IA session 2 and for working on refresh tokens next.. can you link me to the introspection issue/code we were talking about at HWC?
#
angelo
aaronpk what would be the first step toward SSH via device grant type?
#
aaronpk
an OAuth PAM module
#
GWG
angelo: Whether or now auth is needed?
#
GWG
not
#
angelo
aaronpk do you anticipate the C code needing changes?
#
aaronpk
I am not sure, I haven't dug into that enough
#
aaronpk
looks like yes, because that code expects an OpenID Connect ID Token
#
aaronpk
the good news is it means the code gets simpler for indieauth
#
angelo
gwg not sure what you mean?
#
GWG
angelo: The PR got merged, someone reviewed
#
GWG
But we still have issues on the spec merges
#
angelo
aaronpk the code certainly isn't long but i feel it might be difficult to debug.. considering i don't have a working openid connect flow to test with, would it make sense to implement the device grant type flow in another context first?
#
aaronpk
you could do it the other way around, use an existing OIDC server to get that part working first (okta/auth0 are free to try)
#
GWG
I've always wanted to do the device grant, but not worth it till there's a use for it
#
[schmarty]
i've got an indieauth device grant proxy at https://glitch.com/edit/#!/veil-mirror
#
aaronpk
oh i forgot about that thing! I want an excuse to make that
#
aaronpk
and now that i have a 3d printer i can also make a case for it
#
[schmarty]
ooh yeah
#
[schmarty]
woah somehow github signin to glitch.com isn't working for me šŸ¤”
#
[schmarty]
uhhh somehow just logging into glitch.com is plain not working for me. gonna back away slowly for now.
#
[KevinMarks]
[capjamesg] likes could be a relevance signal
#
angelo
thanks aaronpk++ i'll give that a shot.. and https://www.oauth.com/playground/device-code.html just taught me the device flow in under 60 seconds.. nice
#
GWG
aaronpk: I would excuse along with you

did you use some kind of device grant type for your photo device schmarty? is there a github repo tied to that glitch?
tetov-irc joined the channel
#
[schmarty]
angelo: the glitch app I linked is a device grant proxy to IndieAuth. It passes through scopes etc to the requesting client. all glitch apps do have a git repo but I forget how to access it directly. The glitch project has the whole source!
#
angelo
i'm getting an error trying to load the glitch: "There was an error starting the editor. Maybe try to reload?"
#
angelo
then it redirects me to the homepage
