I didnt know about Alexandria either. Sounds brilliant. Where can I find the code for Alexandria clients / relays and converters (assuming its all OSS)? And is there a guide on how to convert a document starting from, say, Markdown or AsciiDoc?

I convert with my own parser (which is too ugly to share πŸ˜…), but there's standard converters like Pandoc.

Thanks for the info! Now I have a good excuse to explore GitCitadel as well.

Just to make sure I understand the second sentence, by "there's Pandoc", you mean using it to generate the AsciiDoc contents for each individual kind 30041 content "section" correct? (If I got this right from this link.)

What I was trying to ask is whether there's a tool that, given an entire Markdown or AsciiDoc document (possibly with some metadata comments), it generates both the publication index and content events for me. Or is Alexandria's UI the best way to handle this for now? (Hopefully, my question makes more sense now,sorry if it was unclear!)

Also, one more question if you don’t mind. Is there a group where people are discussi Alexandria, especially its more technical aspects?

Well, we have a Slack for the project team but nothing on Nostr, yet. It hasn't really interested anyone else, so far.

Got it. I'm not sure if you wish to open it to other curious devs. If you do feel free to DM me an invite to the Slack Workspace. I'm interested for sure :).

It's an implementation-focused Slack, not generalized for all 30040 clients.

Best thing is to DM nostr:npub1wqfzz2p880wq0tumuae9lfwyhs8uz35xd0kr34zrvrwyh3kvrzuskcqsyn . He's the product owner, so that's up to him. He's always interested in more devs, if you want to work on the Alex project, specifically. 😊

Pandoc is a converter that can transpose a file from Markdown to Asciidoc.

This is my CLI for uploading test data, but the Alexandria "New Note" menu item should be opening, soon. Took it down because we're revamping the parser.

Almost any relay can handle the events. Our web client is community-based, and it displays the community relay only, unless you login (then you can see everything from your inboxes).
