I’m currently writing a tutorial (in French) to learn the basics of groff + mom to typeset generalist PDF (not manpages). It’s my nerdy project for the time being, and it grew quite larger than I anticipated (it probably will have 40 pages when finished)
 not because groff is hard, but because my goal is people who never touched a formatting language, so I have to cover the basics.

(#2s3lk3a) Ok! now that I’ve created the twtAgent.{log,csv} files manually and changed their perms so they’re writable by www-data, the twtAgent.php works the twtAgent2 doesn’t tho. + Still have no redirections, I might have to ask arround.

(#6xuvs6a) @sorenpeter@darch.dk I was hoping your script could help solve our pubnix users’ Discovrability dilemma, but either I’m doing something wrong or (maybe) we have some PHP module(s) missing. I gave it a try and it returns the twtxt file content as expected when visited directly, yet there’s no logs/log files created. + I’m still not sure why my htaccess redirection doesn’t work x’) 
 Will keep you posted.

So, I don’t think there is a way for pubnix users to check who’s pulling their Twtxt feeds. “No access logs (for obvious reasons) so, no visibility on user-agent anouncements for me and no discovrability for you (actually, me)!” xD

Today’s discovery: Iris a Serverless text-based forum for tilde-likes. I still haven’t posted anything out there yet, but I’m in love with it already. Let’s see what we find out next

(#6xuvs6a) Yes it work: 2024-12-01T19:38:35Z twtxt/1.2.3 (+https://eapl.mx/twtxt.txt; @eapl) :D

The .log is just a simple append each request. The idea with the .cvs is to have it tally up how many request there have been from each client as a way to avoid having the log file grow too big. And that you can open the .cvs as a spreadsheet and have an easy overview and filtering options.

Access to those files are closed to the public.

(#6xuvs6a) @eapl.mx@eapl.mx Yes, the idea is to add User Agent support to #Timeline.
Right now it just adds every request to a growing log file, but I have also been working on a way to analyse it, so it only saves the time of the latest request.
I’m not sure how to make it part of timeline itself, since it requeses that you redirect/rewrite from twtAgent.php to the acctual twtxt.txt
Help with making Timeline send proper User Agents to others would be much appreciated:)
