Some of you have never made a <button> that submits form data to a server while the user is navigated to a new page defined by the form `action` attribute - all with no JS involved - and it shows.

I'm tempted to connect Exist to my site and share how far I have walked on a given day...
#
capjamesg[d]
I haven't quite made the plunge though.

Would it not be easier to connect whatever you asre measuring your steps with, directly?

I am using my Apple Watch / health app.

Last I checked Apple didn't have a very intuitive API for that sort of thing.

I am looking for a Markdown to HTML convertor in PHP (to potentially post directly from my markdown notes through micropub). Came across this one https://michelf.ca/projects/php-markdown/ Anyone here using that, or anyone with a suggestion they have good experience with?
#
[tonz]
There are of course different varieties of MD, so ideally being able to influence for what the scripts search for to translate would be great too.

aaronpk
that's the one i've been using

thanks Aaron, I’ll count that as a recommendation 😄

You're right, Apple Watch is not easy to get data out of. One reason why I post only monthly averages.

I’ve started looking at building something using https://pub.dev/packages/health with flutter as a way to generate exercise type posts. looks promising so far, but I’ve not tried anything proper with it yet

Coming back to my earlier question about Markdown to HTML [aaronpk] I ended up using https://github.com/erusev/parsedown/ which I got working right away and is fast, whereas I couldn’t get Michel F’s code to work. Meaning I now have working path from my local markdown files (written in Obsidian) to html to my micropub endpoint, so I can write blogposts in my local notes and then send them on their way to my site.

Has anyone used Bridgy successfully to connect to Reddit?

rattroupe: [fluffy] left you a message on 2021-08-29 at 8:57am UTC: IndieAuth profile implementation is live on https://beesbuzz.biz/ although there’s an issue where it’ll cache stuff from the IndieAuth server response erroneously if e.g. someone logs out and back in without the scopes set. I’ve already fixed that in the code but I’m going to hold off on doing another release so quickly.

… wow

I connected my account and syndicated a post, and Bridgy sent it as a bookmark, so I know it's got the connection
#
rattroupe
But I was expecting it to send reddit comments as replies and it's not doing that
#
rattroupe
oddly, I recall getting that message from you before, fluffy.
#
[fluffy]
You probably saw the message itself but never got the Loqi backfill.

[tonz], that workflow sounds like an awesome Obsidian plugin... 🙂

re: HealthKit data – Simon Willison wrote a tool that’ll take a heatlhkit zip export and dump it to sqlite3. Might make it easier to slice and dice your health data however you’d like.

What is HealthKit?
#
Loqi
HealthKit is Apple's iOS framework for collection, aggregation, and tracking of health-related data like sleep tracking, heart rate, steps, exercises and more, which are collected via the Apple Watch and the iPhone https://indieweb.org/HealthKit

ok, I added "Simon Willison wrote a tool that’ll take a heatlhkit zip export and dump it to sqlite3. Might make it easier to slice and dice your health data however you’d like. https://github.com/dogsheep/healthkit-to-sqlite" to the "See Also" section of /HealthKit https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=79267&oldid=75933
