11:49 AM
room topic changed to Room for testing GitHub commit feeds: Because adding a GitHub commit feed didn't seem to work, this is a room to try to add it: chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/17264552#17264552 (no tags)
 
ProgramFOX has made a change to the feeds posted into this room
 
Okay :)
 
@skiwi Have you added the feed as a message feed or ticker feed?
 
@ProgramFOX As a message one
Hopefully multiple message feeds can be active at once?

Generalized method signature of performCallback taking a Supplier.

Minor refactoring.

Updated readme.

 
Hmm so it pulls those 5, though the time is wrong
 
@skiwi Yes, they can.
 
just pushed a commit
 
IIRC, chat feeds refresh every 10-20 minutes, so we'll see what happens.
 
I think 20 mins is our record in the 2nd monitor indeed
Is it supposed to post a correct time though?
 
11:57 AM
@skiwi I think it is. We have a xkcd What If? ATOM feed at the SO Tavern, so I'll have a look at those messages.
Yes, that one has a correct time.
 
Might only be messed up when adding?
And it gets interesting then as that one is also an Atom feed
 
@skiwi Might be, I'll check that.
 
Could you share that feed? I'll test it in the TCG Creation chatroom then, see if anything weird is going on
 
@skiwi The feed URL is what-if.xkcd.com/feed.atom
 
Oh... it's a weekly feed
Not much use for testing then unfortunately
 
12:01 PM
I just checked, and when the feed posted 5 What-Ifs when it was added, the correct time was displayed.
@skiwi I saw that the What-If feed contains a <published> tag for each entry, while the GitHub one does not. That might cause it.
 
Hmm, that's a bad sign then already
 
That one also doesn't have a <published> tag. Then that's likely to be the issue.
 
Hmm, I've heard from others that it does work with other readers
 
@skiwi When looking at the source, I also saw a <updated> tag. It might be that other readers use that tag, and not the <published> one.
 
The <published> tag is for the date of alst update?
Or is that a per entry tag
 
12:13 PM
@skiwi <published> is per-entry, and <updated> is too.
 
okay
so it seems to be entirely broken
Is there any work arounds ot this, or a way to poke SE devs?
 
You could poke them by posting a question on MSE.
But I think it's worth it to wait some time. I'm not entirely sure that it's actually 20 minutes.
 
Okay, I'll need to head out now, will check upon this room later today
 
thanks for help so far ;)
area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/59450/… This is rather... interesting, I don't know why there would be a need for it :)
 
12:23 PM
@skiwi You're welcome!
@skiwi Language barrier is not a big issue indeed, but who knows, it might be helpful.
 
 
2 hours later…
2:02 PM
Hmm... the feed is not yet updated.
 
2:21 PM
@ProgramFOX Asdsuming you are also Dutch then?
And I'm assuming the feed poster is broken
 
@skiwi No, Belgian. But Dutch is my native language.
 
ah okay, Dutch here
 
@skiwi I think we need a feed with more posts to check that.
We can take the Stack Overflow question feed; then at least we are sure that there are new posts every 20 minutes.
 
That one has both updated and published
 
2:29 PM
It might be that the feed poster only posts items that have <published>. But then it's strange that it posts 5 items when it's added.
 
but because it doesn't post a correct date, it might never find any new posts if everything is on 1 jan 1970?
 
That's possible. If the SO question feed posts something, then it's most likely an issue with the GitHub feed and not with the poster.
 
Well... other readers do accept it, it's probably somewhere in between then
 
Probably the other readers don't depend on published.
 
yea hmm, how could I work around it?
SO feed works
 
2:34 PM
@skiwi I don't think you can, unless you contact GitHub to ask to add a published tag to their ATOM entries.
Or try an RSS feed instead (if there is one).
 
unfortunately no RSS feed :(
I've searched for a while to work around it :)
 
I searched for it, and I couldn't find one, unfortunately.
 
ProgramFOX has stopped a feed from being posted into this room
 
Sandbox is a big codedump?
 
2:44 PM
@skiwi The sandbox is a room where you can play around with the chat features, I thought it was the best location to move all SO feed messages to.
 
ah okay :)
