  • Well, everything is working, but need to figure a few things out. I used iA Writer to post to the site and it works! I’ve made Article post types into what I call Notes here, the main post type.
  • Posting from Quill as an Article isn’t going to work1, since it turns everything into HTML and escapes the square brackets in wikilinks.
  • For the (Micropub) Notes post type, I’ve created a new kind called Logs. They use the current date stamp as their filename, and I made a temporary logs page to display them.
  • So, I can post arbitarily long Notes posts with Markdown formatting and wikilinks. This could replace my manual Journal entries. Instead, I would auto-generate journal pages per day (not sure if this is possible), or maybe just show the last N days of logs on a main journal page.2
  • OpenFaaS
  • IndieKit
    • I decided that remote publishing of notes would be useful. So, back to setting up IndieKit. It has changed quite a bit since I last looked at it — for the better!
    • The actual server you deploy into Heroku is one index.js file. Here’s mine bmann/indiekit-bmcgarden, which in turn is really just a copy of paulrobertlloyd/paulrobertlloyd-indiekit.
    • I deleted everything except for Articles (which should turn into blog posts) and Notes (which will be notes, as long as notes don’t have an arbitrary character limit coming in). I need to figure out templating to do things like turn Bookmarks into notes with the link: front matter filled out.

  1. That is, the Micropub Article type, which is meant to be long form and HTML. ↩

  2. As of Feb 22nd, 2021, I’m calling this log type a journal, and in fact merging the journal posts I made before into the logs category. ↩
