[tantek] just fyi looks like the mf2py maintainers have soft decided that metaformats is better as an external extension to mf2py, not directly included: https://github.com/microformats/mf2py/pull/213#issuecomment-1831670791
#
[snarfed]
(that's ok with me, I don't have much opinion either way yet)
#
[aciccarello]
I pushed for it to be included in the node parser so it can reuse the same parsed document. But it's not strictly necessary.
#
[jacky]
oh dang more reason for me to get this library fixed up
#
[jacky]
it'll be packaged for debian!
#
[jacky]
but hadn't started it yet
#
sknebel
[aciccarello]: hence the suggestion of it being an extension and not a standalone thing
#
[aciccarello]
Ah, I didn't understand the mf2py project structure supported that kind of extension. I get it now.

#
[snarfed]
it doesn't, yet
#
sknebel
[snarfed]: is it actually missing something? If my suggestion of deriving a modified parser doesn't work out of the box we should fix whatever you need to do that
#
[snarfed]
oh no your suggestion works fine! I just meant that mf2py doesn't have some explicit built in plugin framework
#
[snarfed]
but you're right that it does support extension implicitly
#
[snarfed]
at least for what I did. I don't know how easy it would be to implement the https://microformats.org/wiki/metaformats#parsing_an_element_for_properties part, even in a subclass
#
[snarfed]
(I didn't do that part)
#
[tantek]
since meta tags and metaformats are such a simplified / reduced case of HTML parsing, I expect we may even see metaformats-only parsers that could be optionally integrated into whole document mf2 parsers

^ capjamesg perhaps you meant that for #indieweb 🙂
#
capjamesg
[tantek] No.
#
capjamesg
We are deciding on an example in the mf2py README.
#
capjamesg
We were trying to find one that contains different attributes (i.e. featured).
#
capjamesg
And the alt text for featured!

Parody account idea for you capjamesg: SwiftOnMicroformats

[aciccarello]
lol, I want to see that

capjamesg, re-reading that article, made me think that Webmention (since it's linked fairly early on) would be another good candidate for an MDN article
