trying to detect new content on tilde.club

Posted on 2022-09-13

I didn't update yesterday but I tried to parse gemini folder of user of

this tilde server and did a small bash scripts which find all *.gmi files which

has been updated recently.

I discarded home folder with default gmi files and belive I found an interesting result.

Unfortunately it discovers unpublished pages: draft page.

So if I want to do something interesting I have to discover links from

/home/<user>/public_gemini/index.gmi and browse like do a search bot.

I've swtiched to python to do some algorithm but it is more complex than it

looks. Identifying links with gemini syntax is easy but I have to manage if the

link is in user base path.

Then having all the links and their update time I could generate a page with

latest updates. Let's see if it is not too difficult / time consuming.
