Started as a quick POC based on @skyjake idea, I basically built a "station to tinylog" parser… Meaning that I can transform a station user feed page into a tinylog formated page :]
If I put this as a cgi script in a capsule, I could then use gtl to follow station user too…
That's nice but not sure if @martin would be ok with this (as if used by others, it might generate too much requests on his server)

@ttocsneb I agree, cache would solve most issues :). I started this more as a POC than anything else so didn't bother with cache so far.
But that may be something I need to do if I want to open it to anyone…
For fun I've put a screenshot (and link to source here:)

If you were worried about making too many requests to station, you could always try making a cache of the user's story. Depending on how up to date you want your tinylog to be, you could have the cache last a couple minutes to a couple hours. I don't know how feasible it would be to implement a cache with cgi scripts, but I bet it could be done. · 3 years ago
