GWG [miklb]: I released another Simple Location
#
[miklb] OK
#
GWG [miklb]: I've made non-Americans happy
#
[miklb] that’s tough to do 😉
#
GWG I forgot celsius
#
[miklb] yes, I’ve seen the discussion
#
GWG I think I will move on for a bit
#
GWG I still have Indieauth to work on
#
GWG I want to get that to a release

#
GWG Hello, [colinwalker]
[kevinmarks] and [colinwalker] joined the channel
#
[colinwalker] Sorry GWG, dashed off again
#
GWG Happens. I am dashing too, but I am on a conveyance
#
[colinwalker] Ships that pass in the night 😉

#
[miklb] Now I’m more interested in the IndieAuth changes if they work for authenticating for the REST API as I’ve seen colinwalker working with Drafts & the API

#
GWG Oh?
#
GWG I didn't see this
#
GWG Got link m
#
GWG Either way, moving toward a stable release of Indieauth
#
Zegnat Woo IndieAuth!

#
Loqi [Colin Walker] Posting to WordPress from Drafts 5
#
[miklb] Drafts 5 is in private beta, but…
randomstranger, gayboi and [colinwalker] joined the channel
#
[colinwalker] Yeah, if Indieauth can be implemented easily then using tools like Drafts to post would be just a case of changing the authentication type, etc. I’ve got it working nicely with basic auth but would be nice to branch out.
#
GWG [colinwalker]: I built it already
#
GWG [colinwalker]: I haven't pushed it to the wordpress.org repo, but pfefferle transferred the Indieauth plugin to the Indieweb repository and I took it over
#
GWG It now supports Indieauth for rest API
#
GWG It originally only supported an authorization endpoint, now it supports a token endpoint and any arbitrary one
#
GWG Just needs a bunch of testing
#
GWG I used it to post with Post Kinds
#
Zegnat GWG, people have to use an external token provider? Hmm, might be worth hosting one for people then...
#
GWG Yes, but I may add one someday
#
GWG I just built a client
#
Zegnat Uugh. I should look at your code for the client. Movement is still super slow on mine
#
GWG Zegnat, in the Indieweb repo. Simple implementation
#
GWG I need to unit test and improve it though, but it works
#
Zegnat fears that “simple implementation” means it does the same as Sink already does
[kevinmarks] joined the channel
#
GWG Quite possibly
chrisaldrich, [jeremycherfas] and j12t joined the channel
#
Zegnat GWG, yeah, looks a lot like what I currently have in Sink. I was working on code to follow all the redirect tracking stuff during discovery.
#
GWG On my list
#
GWG I do no discovery. The endpoint is hard coded
#
Zegnat Some old-version code I was working with: https://gist.github.com/Zegnat/6cb5ed0aa9bce6d9daca096f180e63ef/8c03b4daa14a5c97d2f223a709e4a88cf256ccb4
#
GWG Zegnat: I need to make sure everything works within the WordPress ecosystem, so it requires some thought to map relationships
#
GWG For example, I need to think about scope

#
[chrisaldrich] What is Draft 5?
#
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "Draft 5" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "Draft 5 is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
Zegnat https://draftin.com/ - probably? It is a hard to Google name, but that seems to be a writing tool/platform that can post to several silos.

[miklb] Loqi seems to have gone bye-bye
