emus: First public announcement post https://slixfeed.woodpeckersnest.space/posts/slixfeed-news-bot/

thanks, can you add it to the online pad? ↺

Schimon: any chance for a webhook endpoint in that bot?

Sure. I would need help, mostly with examples that would help me to understand webhooks.

Kris, I also intend to add an HTML generator from syndication feeds, similarly to "Planet Planet", "Planet 2.0", "moonmoon" etc.

I was thinking about repository updates from github etc.

Via webhooks

Kris, I would recommend to do it with a new bot, based on Slixfeed. What do you think?

Maybe, yeah. There is actually a component for it, but its a bit buggy

I have already removed a feature from it (saving HTML to ePub, PDF, TXT etc.), because I sense that I add too much features for someone else to take over it.

A moderation bot with a similar form based configuration like slixfeed would be also great ✏

Kris, I will add webhook endpoint to my tasks list. Would you want to give me guidance from time to time?

Heh, you overestimate my programming skills 😅

No. Absolutely not.

I was thinking that you might not be available to that task.

Alternatively, I would be happy to work with you together on a webhook bot!

> thanks, can you add it to the online pad? emus: I will. I will be available tomorrow evening or on Sunday.

all good ↺

Kris, please inform me if you know of a python library you want for webhook endpoint. You can find the link to the groupchat on the Slixfeed site and we can discuss there.

Kris: you mean like webhooks.cheogram.com ?

I should probably put up a webpage there... Maybe do a blog post about how to replicate it
