While I'm working on fixing Simple Location, anyone have any small issues worth fixing at the same time?
#
[jgmac1106]
with simple location..no
#
GWG
I'm going to try to cover all the actual errors/bugs at least as well as auto add weather on Micropub
#
GWG
Also, [jgmac1106], questions was for anyone who passes by, so may get some thoughts.
#
[jgmac1106]
yeah I was looking at issue list hoping I could help on low hanging fruit.
#
GWG
I want to be able to post notes with location in time for Berlin, where I will be in locations
#
GWG
Location is important to me when sightseeing.
#
GWG
And you combine that with Indigenous, and the photo post kind...
#
[jgmac1106]
location is super important, you will have an answer by Berlin, any response to your email?
#
GWG
Not a peep

@gwg west coast still sleeping and simple location a niche plugin
[Rose], [jeremycherfas] and [kevinmarks] joined the channel
#
GWG
It isn't a strictly Indieweb plugin
#
GWG
It's a website requirements for certain post types though
#

@gwg anything you can borrow from Known on how the do Geo: https://github.com/mapkyca/KnownGeoIP

@GWG how do you use Indigenous with locations for photo post kind?

#
GWG
I want to improve it
jgmac1106 joined the channel
#
GWG
Indigenous supports posting photos and supports adding location to a post
#
GWG
Simple Location supports adding location to an attachment from the attachment metadata, but not copying that to the parent post yet.
#
GWG
Post Kinds 3.1.0 moves to store media citations in the attachment data.

GWG
My ideal workflow is that I take a picture and post it to my site and it takes either the coordinates embedded in the photo or the passed along location, and enhances it with a textual description and a map
#
GWG
jackjamieson, I didn't forget about rss in Parse This
#
jackjamieson
GWG: Nice, it seems like you've been getting a lot done recently

I had to jump projects because something broke, but more coming

GWG: Actually that reminds me that I've been getting errors with some rss feeds in Yarns. I'll add an issue to Yarns. Hopefully you don't have the same problem but may as well document it
#
GWG
I was going to start with bringing your code over
#
GWG
Although you use file_get_contents which isn't recommended in WordPress
#
jackjamieson
Yeah, I've been meaning to change that but haven't done so yet. I can probably do that now
#
GWG
I only mentioned it as a change I'd make if. I added feed discovery
#
GWG
Right now, I have location on my mind

#
jackjamieson
Where are you working on location? Micropub?
#
GWG
jackjamieson, Simple Location is my location plugin for WordPress. I have to make some emergency fixes, but while I am, I want to have it autotrigger on Micropub publish.
#
GWG
Since I got Indigenous for Android to send coordinates
#
GWG
It is the thing that displays maps for posts and generates a location name and local weather conditions
#
jackjamieson
Nice, I've looked at Simple Location, but haven't used it much since I don't typically geotag my posts. But it'd be great to have the option when posting from Indigenous
#
GWG
Exactly. Should only be a few hours work

#
GWG
I want it to have the option of always storing it, even if it isn't displayed
#
jackjamieson
For personal reference? Or just to have the option to display the location later? If the former, how about an option to display only for logged in users?
#
GWG
That's good. I am noting that
#
GWG
But, partially for future reference.
#
GWG
I also have a note about geofencing
#
jackjamieson
geofencing following from the indie-mon discussion about geolocked posts?
#
GWG
But for now, I just want the option to use the data later to categorize posts
#
GWG
No, to automatically hide the location if it is in a zone
#
GWG
As a safety on always storing it
#
jackjamieson
Ah, that's a great idea. I can imagine it might be nice to post location while travelling, but plenty of people may not want to post their home location
#
GWG
Exactly
#
GWG
I want it to just say Home and hide everything else by default
#
GWG
I am trying to reproduce some of the Google features that I like
#
GWG
The one I really want someday is a map of posts
#
jackjamieson
That's a feature that would convince me to use locations
#
GWG
Let's say I visit Berlin and post at famous locations, then offer an archive view with a map
#
GWG
Which?
#
GWG
I really want trip reports
#
GWG
But I have a lot of pieces to put together before that gets to the top of my list
#
GWG
I also have an open issue for venue support. A venue is basically a bookmarked location
#
jackjamieson
Having posts at home just say "Home" and only showing location data when travelling
#
GWG
jackjamieson, stay tuned?
#
GWG
I might get to that when I fix Micropub auto enhancement
#
GWG
Which I am doing while fixing the provider issue
#
jackjamieson
That's a lot! I like the idea of trip reports, too. Makes me think of how Google photos creates albums automatically
#
GWG
You see the long term dream

GWG: Good news: I think I was wrong about Yarns having RSS problems. Bad news: I think the culprit was a Simple Location bug. See https://github.com/dshanske/simple-location/issues/79

That would be my ideal workflows as well. Currently using Keyring Social Importers plugin to pull in your location and image content from Swarm check-ins. However, that plugin was last updated about 2 years ago.
#
[Khurt]
I love this idea of geofencing.
#
GWG
Jetpack does GeoRSS?
#
GWG
I use OYS to pull in check-ins
#
GWG
And Simple Location adds the map
#
GWG
jgmac1106 is right, I should write more speculative posts about my plans..even the far out ones
