• Just finished shipping a webmention endpoint in Tanzawa. Actual display of webmentions is a task for another time as it turns out to be quite complex.

  • I've got webmentions working with the great django-webmention library. I'm parsing mention's microformats using mf2py and mf2util. It's not too difficult.Β  You can send a webmention and I'll receive it. They just won't show on the page. And that's because I'm not sure how I want them to display.

    For example a "like" doesn't necessarily have an author name, just a url. Or even no author at all. How do I display these? Do I just not display them?Β  What's the appropriate microformat html for this type?Β  Rich content or plain content? What if the plain content is in markdown? And repeat for each different kind.

    I wanted to add support for receiving webmentions, as that way I can see if someone's linking to the tanzawa development blog, but I'll I think I'll hold off on display until I've had a chance to think through the implementations more.
  • I got my Mac back from repair and have promptly resumed working on Tanzawa. Today I shipped RSS feeds. Subscribe to the Tanzawa feed to follow development.

  • Today IΒ  merged RSS support (feed), properly microformatted statuses, and automatic plain text conversion of statuses. Next up is some basic site settings, so you can set things like site title / feed title and so forth.
  • Computer is repaired and I'm making progress on Tanzawa again. Today I've got the statuses rendering as microformats and made an author page. Next up will adding RSS support for statuses.
