Published on in 💬 Micro

I just switched from my Hugo-based webmention storing method (that triggered a site rebuild for every webmention) to Horst Gutmanns’s webmentiond. There are still a few things to improve, but I will try to submit more pull requests, like support for Telegram as a notification service and a few other issues.

Webmention update

Published on in 💬 Micro

I’m now receiving webmentions myself and also show them as “interactions” on this blog.

I implemented webmention receiving into my Hugo backend. Mentions are stored as a simple json file per webmention in the “data” folder of my blog and then I’m using some Hugo magic (data templates) to render them in my theme.

By doing it this way, I don’t need any JavaScript to show interactions and I don’t need to rely on a 3rd party service (I used webmention.io) for receiving anymore.

Automatic Webmention sending

Published on in 💬 Micro

My dynamic Hugo backend (it’s not just Micropub anymore) should now send Webmention requests automatically after publishing a post. I first thought about using the Telegraph API for that, but then just took the webmention library written in Go by Will Norris.

ActivityPub support for my blog?

Published on in 💭 Thoughts

I just found this article on how to create a basic ActivityPub server. It let’s me think about adding ActivityPub support to my hugo-micropub project (which then becomes more than just a Micropub endpoint for my Hugo setup). It’s definitely a project I finally want start once I’m done with this semester.

Send webmentions using a simple Go CLI

Published on in 💭 Thoughts

I just wanted to share the tool, which I use to send my webmentions. I use the webmention Go library by Will Norris, which also includes a simple command line tool.

Better Webmention support on this blog

Published on in 💭 Thoughts
Updated on

A few days ago, I already added support for webmentions and microformats2 to this blog. Now I added a form at the end of every article, so you can submit your mentions more easily.
