Sitewriter

This is a small Sinatra service that provides publishing endpoints for sites that cannot provide their own.

The first use case is Micropub posting of notes to my Middleman site via GitHub.

Essentially, a configured domain has some endpoints, which receive content and apply templates which are then sent to a store.

Authentication for configuration is provided via IndieAuth.com

I also use IndieAuth for the Micropub tokens. If you'd like to do the same, set the environment variable TOKEN_ENDPOINT to https://tokens.indieauth.com/token

Post type heuristics

  • If mp-type is defined, use it
  • If type == h-event or h == event: event
  • If type == h-entry or h == entry:
    • If there is a in-reply-to value: reply
    • quotation
    • If there is a repost-of value: repost
    • If there is a bookmark-of value: bookmark
    • If there is a checkin or u-checkin value: checkin
    • If there is a like-of value: like
    • If there is a video value: video
    • If there is a photo value: photo
    • If there is a audio value: audio
    • If there is a name value: article
    • Otherwise: note

N.B. entries are flat. The value of a property may be an entry itself, but the "deeper" values will not be flattened for post type discovery.
