In a bid to avoid re-inventing the wheel, does there exist a PHP library to add ActivityPub functionality to an existing website?

There are a handful of 'concept demos' and even a few full PHP implementations of an ActivityPub server, but nothing (that I've found) that is just a drop-in component to allow, say, an existing website to post content / updates from itself.

andypiper,
@andypiper@macaw.social avatar

@jtonline @ahnlak I'm aware of some PHP libraries for Mastodon's API but I'm not so familiar with ActivityPub modules for existing sites. Tapping @Edent as I know he has dabbled in this area!

@Edent @ahnlak @jtonline there’s also the @fedidevs Matrix room to ask (apologies if you already did that, I’ve not paid attention so much in there this past week)

I've had a fantastic yield on the PCBs for my Omni wheel hexpansion for this year's badge. 100% of these hand assembled boards are tested and working. That means I've got two full sets (3 per set) of PCBAs available if anyone wants them. Material cost is about £20 for a set and this is only the boards, you need motors and wheels as well, see https://github.com/hairymnstr/omni-wheel-hexpansion let me know if you're interested.

@hairymnstr this is clearly very silly, I mean, ultra important, therefore please put me down for a set.

v0.3 of Heffalump (a Mastodon client for PalmOS) is out now! This release (finally) adds the ability to view your own past toots, as well as replies (to both your own and others' toots).

You can grab the app and the conduit installer from the release here: https://github.com/knickish/heffalump_conduit/releases/tag/v0.3.0 or read more about Heffalump generally here: https://www.knickish.com/palm/rust/2023/09/12/a-mastodon-client-for-palmos.html

A screenshot of a Mastodon post on Heffalump. The @ symbol in the bottom right can be clicked to show any available replies.

Just got the badge running in the simulator on my Mac.

Python newbie here so I struggled more than most. Here's how I got it working: https://billglover.me/2024/05/26/emf-camp-running-the-tildagon-simulator/

tldr: Python 3.9 and pipenv shell

@bill thanks for the write-up! I couldn't get it working in 3.11 or 3.12 so your specific steps were perfect (also on Apple Silicon).

Extreme Kits will be at @emf #emfcamp #emf2014 this year,

I will have a limited supply of kits with me if you would like one.

Come and say hello.

@ExtKits I think we'll be nearby on Friday at least! (think you mean 2024 though...)

@pikesley Fediwall is a lovely project! this one is following a lot of hashtags and accounts across a lot of instances, so currently updates every 5 mins. I really should spin up my own and customise with solarpunk theme and stuff, but it will do for now!

How are people mostly communicating at ?

So far I'm in a couple of WhatsApp groups, a Signal group, following the hashtag on Mastodon, and attempting to get Matrix on my phone.

What's your preferred way of chatting with your fellow campers?
