Stubbing this out:
Desired Functionality
Base
- Post titles declared by
- additional field in compose window via web interface
- Starting with a header like in markdown, eg:
# My Post Title Post content
- Post title displayed like standard html header
- Slugified urls like
https://neuromatch.social/@username/my-post-title
- Duplicate slugs get incrementing integers appended
- eg.
my-post-title-2
etc.
- eg.
- Duplicate slugs get incrementing integers appended
Nice to have
- Titled posts displayed in separate section on account page
- Titled posts minimized by default, showing only title?
Implementation
- X - Add "title" field to status model
- X - Do migration
- X - config for max title length
- Declare:
- X - Add field in web ux to add
- Parser/regex to detect post-initial header
- Store
- X - slugify title
- check for duplicates and increment
- Display:
- X - Show title above status on local web interface
- Use title in page metadata and html head?
- Serializing
- X - Just serialize title in post body when federating
- add route for slugified titles/add slug detection in controller
- Half done... need to figure out how react/redux is getting post ID from the URL pattern
