@tchambers @activitypubtestsuite can you point out where is the code to it? Imma give it a shot

Ricardo: ✊ Thank you! Can anyone help point him to the best code to try to resuscitate the web site ActivityPub.rocks 1.0 test suite page? Or a better later fork?

Is something here? https://gitlab.com/dustyweb/activitypub.rocks/-/tree/master/

rmdes, 10 months ago

@tchambers @activitypubtestsuite ouch... I wish there was even just basic instructions on how to deploy this.. But I can do some research 😊

rmdes, 10 months ago

@tchambers @activitypubtestsuite but I'm not 100% that's the website itself, it's some tooling but we'd need to ask @cwebber if that's it 🤔

tchambers, 10 months ago

@rmdes @activitypubtestsuite @cwebber I’ll ask some others who might be a person or two removed from those who might know. #SocialWG #activitypub #ActivityPubDev

@tchambers @activitypubtestsuite @cwebber thanks

@tchambers @rmdes @activitypubtestsuite This is the activitypub.rocks #ActivityPub test suite code. https://gitlab.com/dustyweb/pubstrate/-/blob/master/pubstrate/aptestsuite.scm

@steve @tchambers @activitypubtestsuite Damn, I have no idea how to deploy this type of code...

steve, 10 months ago

@rmdes @tchambers @activitypubtestsuite Yeah, it's not my specialty either although I did professional Common LiSP programming years (decades) ago. There are some instructions available (see link).

Yeah any choice we make on test suite version 2.0 should consider using languages and tech easy to maintain and with a wide developer base….

@tchambers @steve @activitypubtestsuite
I'm willing to host for free any test solution the community find useful and needed. But after having a look at the mostly abandoned code I'm wondering if I'm not losing time.
The question is, do we have currently a developer working on a maintained test suite ?

@rmdes @steve @activitypubtestsuite

Seems like the answer is “some things in the work in a couple places…”

Also do set up your account here - and I’m sure folks will support this work along with me: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/faq

@rmdes @steve @tchambers @activitypubtestsuite I've had another look into this original test suite, and I now have an incomplete Dockerfile that might help.

It has some manual steps but it gets as far as this issue in the repo:
https://gitlab.com/dustyweb/pubstrate/-/issues/3

I'm happy to send the Dockerfile to anyone else who wants to have a go. (I'm Github-averse and haven't got around to finding a better code-sharing site yet.)

rmdes, 10 months ago

@OpinionatedGeek @steve @tchambers @activitypubtestsuite Ohh that's neat!

OpinionatedGeek, 10 months ago

@rmdes @steve @tchambers @activitypubtestsuite Sure. Erm, try this link? https://expirebox.com/en/G7jeScwepeVo54F/file (Or if you DM me your email address I can email it to you.)

@rmdes @steve @tchambers @activitypubtestsuite Here's a more long-winded version - a blog post with a simpler Dockerfile, instructions, and details of how far I got before failing: https://opinionatedgeek.com/Blog/2023/6/27/failing-to-run-pubstrate-in-a-container

In fact, a couple of weeks ago I tried to use it and I was a bit disappointed because it didn't work.

It would be tremendously valuable. Anything that helps us test run a new app without installing a whole instance of some other app. How much work it would take to get running? @tchambers @activitypubtestsuite
