Fun with Draft Actions

I’m having some fun working on this Drafts action for Micro.blog. I’m horrible with JavaScript, but I’m fumbling my way through it and feel like it’s coming along nicely. I’ve still got some ideas for it, but wanted share a little bit, to give myself a push, so that I don’t keep it hidden forever. I wanted to have one spot to post to my primary or test blog, so I added a prompt that will let you choose which blog that you want to post to.

I don’t have any regular routines or rituals. The closest would be sitting down each evening this week and working on a new Drafts action.

That moment when everything falls in place and I have a working Drafts action and I’m using it to post this. 😃

Figured out my issue that I was having. Apparently I shouldn’t be trusted with JavaScript. I was adding the query parameter to the request object incorrectly. 🤦🏼‍♂️

I’m working on a Drafts action for Micro.blog, but having some issues with the category selection. I added a prompt to select the blog to post to, however, when requesting the categories it continues to show the categories based on my main blog. I tried setting the mp-destination to the selected blog on the Micropub request for the categories, but that doesn’t seem to work. Or I’m setting that request up wrong. Does anyone have any suggestions to try out?

I hate pollen. Forgot to take allergy medicine this morning too. 🤦🏼‍♂️

I love that she is expressing interest in learning to play. She keeps asking to take lessons.
