[schmarty]: i made my h-card a <picture> element with an svg and png fallback, and now my photo doesn't load...are h-cards allowed to be <picture> elements?
#
[tantek]
oooh I think that may be a new thing in the wild!
#
Seirdy
or how about img srcsets?
#
Seirdy
cuz no matter what i want my photo to be renderd as 16x16 logical pixels next to my name, but i don't wanna look hella pixelated on other services that parse h-cards so i include a higher-res version that most browsers will ignore (since most browsers won't want a 64x64 PNG for a 16x16 space. Both pngs are a fallback for the SVG, since some browsers don't support SVG.
#
Seirdy
e.g. the Tor browser's safest setting, or w3mimg
#
Seirdy
i also found this: https://github.com/microformats/microformats2-parsing/issues/7 for srcsets, will file an issue if there's no issue for picture.

[tantek] #7 Should u-* parsing special case img srcset?
#
Loqi
[janboddez] #53 Parse srcset and return different image URLs (and do the same for [video] sources?)
#
Seirdy
well until that gets implemented i'll move my u-photo to the <img> element within the <picture>
#
[tantek]
hmm which one was the <picture> issue?
#
[tantek]
ah I see it now, thanks Seirdy++

Seirdy, can you open a top level issue on https://github.com/microformats/microformats2-parsing/issues specifically requesting that the mf2 parsing algorithm add support for the picture element, and that you have a use-case with the u-photo of an h-card ? feel free to link the other mentioned issues above as well to make them more discoverable

Woop, think I've just finished my userinfo endpoint. Is anyone consuming it yet?
#
capjamesg[d]
userinfo?
#
aaronpk
i added it to mine and then made okta consume it :D
#
jamietanna
I saw that, that was cool aaronpk! How did you do that? I may give it a go to make sure mine works too
#
aaronpk
(note the JWKS endpoint doesn't need to be anything because it works without ID tokens)
#
jamietanna
Nice, will have a play :)

I have an artist friend who has no clue about websites or even how to write a Word file that does not contain weird formatting. I’m helping him by doing data cleaning and creating a spreadsheet. Ultimately, he wants a website, driven from the spreadsheet (or similar). Can anyone recommend an open source project that will create reasonable HTML from, say, a Google Sheet. Or maybe from sqlite?
#
[jeremycherfas]
Not IndieWeb yet, but this is to enable him to check the data. It will become a proper portfolio site in due course, and I hope to persuade him to be IndieWeb then.

I should add that I don't need to write to the Sheet or database, only access it and display some text and an image.

Has anyone used https://cooklang.org/ ? I wonder if it would be helpful with posting recipes 🤔
#
[aciccarello]
This is the blog post I learned about it from https://briansunter.com/blog/cooklang/

I _feel_ like I've seen this referenced somewhere

recipe << Plaintext language for marking up recipe metadata https://cooklang.org/
#
Loqi
ok, I added "Plaintext language for marking up recipe metadata https://cooklang.org/" to the "See Also" section of /recipe https://indieweb.org/wiki/index.php?diff=80032&oldid=79538

[tantek]
[jeremycherfas] someone at an IWS (maybe Darius?) demonstrated their personal website running and dynamically serving content from “tables” in a Google Spreadsheet!
#
[tantek]
I don't remember what the software was or how it was setup but I do remember that adding a post was a matter of adding a line to the spreadsheet and it “just worked”
#
[tantek]
Similarly editing posts was trivial, edit that row in the spreadsheet

On another topic, this seems like an interesting thing here that folks may want to consider applying to for some grant $ for their own projects: https://www.colorado.edu/lab/medlab/2022/02/21/open-call-bring-decentralized-tools-your-community

Simon had some neat tools for templated sites from csv

That might be the most useful option, in terms of something I would want to use myself down the road.
