ensure child comments are displayed in post view? (lemmy.ml)
 

currently my client displays child comments/replies to a given comment based on a get-comments request and the sort arg. if a child comment is returned by such a request, it will be included as part of the tree, but otherwise not. it means the child is subject to sorting itself.

but what is needed is that if a parent comment is displayed/returned by request/sort arg, all its children should be also. that seems to me to be how the webUI works also.

any tips on how to ensure that?

emacs lemmy client lem.el 0.4 update (codeberg.org)
 

did a maniac hack on the old lem.el recently, mainly for the 0.19 release. overhauled the logic of all the sorting/listing commands. they should be more rigorous and flexible to update now. various other fixes too. pushed to main, so will hit MELPA soon.

also added unified inbox for replies, mentions, and private messages, and various other minor display improvements.

i was going to test these new changes out for my client, but it seems that https://voyager.lemmy.ml is down?

lem.el - client library and interface for lemmy in c/emacs@lemmy.ml
[–] blawsybogsy@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

lem.el also implements a client, similar in design to mastodon.el. i did the api layer so that others could implement other kinds of interfaces such as a gnus backend if they desired.

does that really matter? its clear that lem.el is an Emacs library, and is thus named as such (.el), and is thus not a standalone piece of software. I really don't think its a problem. there are no Emacs libraries with the same name.

A client library and UI for Lemmy, has most of the basics in working order now. interested to hear your feedback if you give it a go. other complex UI features like rich post composing and image handling will be ported from mastodon.el.

it is designed to have a clean API layer, so the functions in lem-api.el could be used to create other interfaces.

documentation for lemmy link types? (lemmy.ml)
 

Is there anywhere that lemmy's various types of internal links are documented? like !community links @user links, links of the form https://lemmy.com/c/community@otherinstance.net. i have also seen links that just have "/c/community@otherinstance.net"... at the moment i'm only developing rendering code for them as i happen upon them, which is ad-hoc

how does the webfinger API work? (lemmy.ml)
 

Or is it documented? with mastodon, i set up clients to always load URLs in my app if they resembled masto-compatible URLS. I'm unsure how to go about this with lemmy. the lemmy-js-client "documentation" makes no mention of webfinger at all, though the lemmy repos have PRs fixing it.

are maximum Limit values documented somewhere? (lemmy.ml)
 

The Limit property is just a number, but it is different for different API endpoints. I'd like to have a list of the different values so i can easily stay within the max for each endpoint. Are the values documented somewhere? From the official js-client docs site, not even a given endpoint documents its maximum.

Is anyone working on a Lemmy client for Emacs? in c/emacs@lemmy.ml
[–] blawsybogsy@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

made some progress. mainly spent time working on getting the sorting types and listing types going, so you can cycle between them on the go. v basic display of post details in byline, etc., but that can easily be spruced up by pulling code from mastodon.el. + markdown rendered posts/comments, uwu!

https://codeberg.org/martianh/lem. the readme has a rough todo list.

logging in and loading lem as package is still pretty rough, or kinda broken. but i'll get it sorted soon.

still gotta build a comments tree also, that's a biggie.

how to build a comment tree from the lemmy API? (lemmy.ml)
 

i have requests to fetch comment and post data, but i'm struggling to work out how to build a tree from the responses? do i fetch comments with arg parent_id to get a comment's children, and do so recursively for those comments returned that themselves have comments?

can you see comments that way? you just subscribe to communities i imagine?

https://codeberg.org/martianh/lem has some basics, functions returning plain JSON. i didn't do any auth, but if its oauth and so similar to mastodon.el, we cd also just move its auth code into the fedi.el library. and fedi-http.el is already set up to handle auth tokens.

discovering lemmy's query parameters is quite a pain for me, as i don't know rust.

thanks for the link. so https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/blob/main/src/api_routes_http.rs shows the paths and params, i tried them in a rest client and it's no too hard to follow.

the mastodon.el http layer isn't great, but it could be v quickly adapted for this case.
