ronkyuu

論及 ronkyuu - mention, reference to, touching upon

Python package to help with parsing, handling and other manipulations of the IndieWeb Toolkit items, such as:

  • Webmention
  • Discovery of mentions in a publisher's post, the handling of finding what the Webmention callback is for the reference and also handling of incoming Webmention requests are handled.
  • RelMe
  • Take a source URL and a resource URL that is supposed to be a rel=me for the source and verify that it is.

Roadmap

Working

  • Mention discovery in a post
  • Discovery of Webmention callback for a link
  • POST of Webmention to discovered callback
  • Receipt of a Webmention POST
  • command line tool to trigger an event
  • examples for event handling
  • support for RelMe verification

Pending

  • Flask app to allow test sending of webmentions
  • WebHook listener to trigger events
  • ...

See the examples/ directory for sample command line tools.

WebMentions

findMentions(sourceURL, domains=[])

Find all elements in the html returned for a post. If any have an href attribute that is not from the one of the items in domains, append it to our lists.

findEndpoint(html)

Search the given html content for all elements and return any discovered WebMention URL.

discoverEndpoint(url)

Discover any WebMention endpoint for a given URL.

sendWebmention(sourceURL, targetURL, webmention=None)

Send to the targetURL a WebMention for the sourceURL. The WebMention will be discovered if not given in the optional webmention parameter.

RelMe

findRelMe(sourceURL)

Find all elements in the given html for a post. If any have an href attribute that is rel="me" then include it in the result.

confirmRelMe(profileURL, resourceURL, profileRelMes=None, resourceRelMes=None)

Determine if a given resourceURL is authoritative for the profileURL. The list of rel="me" links will be discovered if not provided in the optional profileRelMes parameter or the resourceRelMes paramter.

Validators

URLValidator class

TODO: fill in details of how to use

Events

During the processing each task, be it an incoming webmention, reply or even a new post - a new event will be generated and any event handlers found will be given a chance to process the event.

This is done to allow for external scripts or calls to be made to update the static site and/or data files.

Right now I'm going to use a very simple "plugin" style for inbound, outbound and posts where any .py file found in a directory is imported as a module. This will, I think, let me use the event plugins via the command line, but also via WebHooks because I can create a Flask listener for WebHook urls and then call the event plugins.

Events consist of the event type and a payload - not much else is really needed.

  • webmention inbound
  • source url, target url
  • webmention outbound
  • source url, target url
  • article post
  • source url or file

Requires

Python v2.6+ but see requirements.txt for a full list

For testing I use httmock to stub the web calls

The Webmention daemon requires Flask
