Kolev Is there a guide on writing markup for notes and getting them to Mastodon with Bridgy Classic?
#
gRegor Bridgy docs have details: https://brid.gy/about#publishing

#
Kolev Hm. There's a lot of stuff there, gRegor. Very complicated.
#
gRegor Not really, the microformats2 aren't much. You can use an interactive form when you sign in on https://brid.gy to cross-post on demand. You don't have to use webmentions to trigger publishing.

#
Kolev gRegor, like this? https://codeberg.org/kolev/calebh.top/commit/5d14f421dd5ec5aed407a4a358ae8088c73d91b4

Kolev BAF sounds amazing. Right now, I have several flavors of Markdown and some posts even in SXML.

Loqi btrem: gRegor left you a message 1 week, 4 days ago: I experimented with authenticated ICS. Interested to see if this works for you. Notes: https://gregorlove.com/2025/06/here-is-what-i/

#
btrem FWIW, I sort of figured this would work. The challenge for me is figuring how to set up basic http auth on a Drupal site. Drupal is quite powerful. But with great power comes insane complexity, so doing tasks that should be easy can instead be damned near impossible unless you're a real Drupal expert.
#
btrem Also, I'm really discouraged by this line from your post: "Google Calendar does not appear to support subscribing to authenticated ICS." That is terrible news. It means the .ics feed is probably not worth doing, since I imagine most coop members -- like most people generally -- will be using Google calendar, and not Thunderbird or some dedicated app. :(
#
perryflynn you still could do it with a auth key as part of the url or query string.
#
perryflynn in nextcloud I also can share the ics feed with a token in the url.

.pi.r2. DKIM appears still rather optional to me but SPF is a must have to not get flagged as spam
#
perryflynn nextcloud uses a dedicated token for that, as mentioned before. maybe the api (is there an api) of drupal can be used for such thing? so use a api token with specific permissions to publish a calendar.
#
perryflynn a secret tied to a user but not the main account password.
#
perryflynn mandaris: the wikipedia article is quite good.
#
perryflynn do one step after another. nobody prevents you from just putting a static secret into drupal for now.
#
perryflynn just hardcode the secret portion of the url for now and make ical work. later you can then figure out how to make the user-specific secrets work.
#
perryflynn google calendar can handle https. I subscribe multiple statis ics files from https urls.
#
Loqi A Capability URL (AKA magic link, hard to guess URL, or secret URL) is a URL that provides access to a resource to anyone who has the URL without an explicit login https://indieweb.org/capability_URL

#
perryflynn the wiki is really like a text adventure. you just have to know what to ask. fascinating. :-)
#
perryflynn well, what's the difference between a very long secret in the url and a password you send as a basic auth header? IMHO there is none.
#
perryflynn per default query parameters are even not logged in webserver logs. so even that is not a problem.
#
perryflynn :-D
