| From Scribbles to Gemini, with EchoFeed | 2024-04-14T00:23:30.000000Z | 2024-04-14T00:23:30.000000Z |
I posted almost a month ago that I was pausing my Scribblesing while I focused on further adventures in Geminispace. But then Robb Knight went and released the much-anticipated EchoFeed, and I thought it might be fun to see if I could feed my Gemini capsule from Scribbles.
After tinkering with it quite a bit today, I think I've got a working (if not particularly elegant) solution.
Now, when EchoFeed sees a new post on my Scribbles feed, it copies the post to a Markdown file in the GitHub repo I use for my capsule. A GitHub Actions workflow is triggered by the creation of that new Markdown file and converts it to the Gemtext format, complete with a YAML sidecar to hold metadata for gempost, a static site generator for Gemini. And then the creation of that file triggers another workflow which uses gempost to build the site and then push it to my server.
Now I get to check out all the cool new stuff Vincent has been adding to Scribbles while still maintaining a presence on the altweb. Very exciting!
