Can I get some alpha testers for my 30040/30041 uploader?
I catch a lot of errors, but I need more tests and it's probably sorta buggy.
ANYONE WITH A MARKDOWN FILE IN THE HOUSE?
Thanks in advance? š¤
Discussion
1000 sats each, to the first 10 people who try it out and give me a quick review.
Give me the feedback on gitworkshop, if you can.
hah i knew you'd ask when i read it
ok, but what am i doing?
Just need to install php and composer, if you don't already have it, I think. Then just follow the directions in the readme.md.
It's possible that you'll also need to download the https://github.com/nostrver-se/nostr-php library, but I don't even know. I've never built something like this, before. Stuff like that is what I'm trying to figure out.
i don't know this php stuff since literally 2003
i will have a look at it because you be coo
ok i have php and compos000r and all the shizl but what do i do to test this exactly?
also i be dumb for the phpee
wat now?
were is createBook.php exactly? did i clone it?

i dang broked it
seriously, you need to work on your documentation howtoo thing
Yeah, I need someone to tell me what to write in it. š š
No, this is the part I'm not really sure about. vendor folder includes all of the dependencies.
nostr:npub1qdjn8j4gwgmkj3k5un775nq6q3q7mguv5tvajstmkdsqdja2havq03fqm7 nostr:npub1qe3e5wrvnsgpggtkytxteaqfprz0rgxr8c3l34kk3a9t7e2l3acslezefe How does that work, when someone else is installing it?
yeah, i love vendors folders
your gitignore blocked it from being uploaded
and now you are in gitignore hell
Oh dear.
Should I upload it or would an install script be better?
Those are managed with composer.
Nostr-php only contains the composer.json (so no composer.lock file) so you're always downloading the latest version of the dependencies defined in that composer.json file.
To update your existing project, run `composer update -W`
If you're still stuck, remove the vendor map first with `rm -rf vendor` and run `composer install`
Okay, just pushed that. Please pull the new version, everyone!

testing
i've lost track of what i'm doing
need hamburger
I keep zapping you, but it doesn't go through.
weird, i get zaps from many others all the time that i don't comprehend
Did you pull the commit I just pushed?
It should be in the root folder. It hardly does anything, just a way to start the app.
i found it but then i hit the vendor thing
just checked, no new commits
ran git pull and nothing new and this is my git log:

* add backwards compatibility in the __construct() of relay for the $message argument which was used in version < 1.2.4
* fix WebsocketClient response (message) which returned an array instead of a string for the json_decode function
I think that's the Nostr PHP Helper library, not mine. š¤
For anyone who has Word Documents there is a tool. https://word2md.com/
I also sometimes copy-paste stuff into https://stackedit.io/app# or habla.news and format it. Just need the two header levels (# book title ## chapter title) and then save the content to an .md file (a .txt file that you rename).
Obsidian is also great for this.
https://github.com/ibz/bitcoin-whitepaper-markdown/blob/master/bitcoin-whitepaper.md
Includes ASCII art, which could be a good test.
Seems to work. Had to move the **Abstract** to ## Abstract and ### References to ## References, but the content worked.
So, we've got the Bible, Aesop's Fables, and the Bitcoin Whitepaper, so far. š
Slowly slowly all of sacred-texts and ccel catalogue lol
Wait until you see nostr:npub1wqfzz2p880wq0tumuae9lfwyhs8uz35xd0kr34zrvrwyh3kvrzuskcqsyn pretty web app. Then we can actually read the files, rather than just writing them.
I found that it didn't like colons in the title, and like you said, `**Abstract**...` needed to be a heading level 2. I also found that the `## Abstract ...` needs to be broken up, not just made into a heading (saw the `\n\n` in your event published). Otherwise, the article event fails to create (that was the last key to making it work).
Some checks might be needed to provide the user feedback on what might have caused a book to fail to publish.
Ah, you mean like how I moved the text before Abstract to after?
Looks like you're relay didn't write. I have a check for that and one redo.
I just explode on the ## and then pop off the first element for a title and trim.
I don't even look what's in-between.
Add a composer.json file for managing your dependencies, like the nostr-php lib š
I have one, in the src folder. I'll move it up to the top.
Aah! Yes, the root dir of the project is a better place.
I hope I can find some time tonight to have a quick view on it and install + test it.
That would be great!
This is a kind of practice-run, as we wanted to test out PHP with Nostr, anyway, so I grabbed the opportunity and learnt to code in 3 minutes. š
i recommend you have some test environment to check your destructions work
a virtual machine is probably the cheapest way, but if you have a second computer that is retarded that's a good option also
been thinking about re-deploying my ol' lenovo laptop as a third screen and backup in case of power outage, plus also windows test rig
hell, might just get on that, today seems to be my day of receiving new things to make my hardware to adequate
I'm actually going to get a new laptop, soon, as my husband is finally taking pity on me. š I can then use my netbook for testing. Also great, because it's worst-case, from performance.
Check out https://ddev.com for this
Oh God I hate Docker. š
It should make it easier š Iām still doing all the Docker stuff on my own for every project..
You could have a look at Nix as well perhaps
I'm giving a go at testing the uploader, however getting Composer configured is proving to be a nuisance to me and a roadblock. š Still trying.
I'm doing something wrong. I see no "user" folder. 
Whoa, that is weird. š¤
Is this the repo you're pulling from?
No, I didn't pull from any repo! I added git clone https://github.com/SilberWitch/eBookUtility to the start of my steps. That solved the lack of user directory, so that's good. Getting errors on composer install now though (can't generate composer.lock). I'll try again tomorrow maybe.
Maybe start from scratch again, this time cloning the repo, first, then composer install.
Getting closer. Tried in two places, local and VPS. On VPS, can't get over php extension errors (tried installing, no luck). On local laptop, got things installed that were headaches yesterday (composer, extensions) and things seem to be working. But "article eventID was not created" so, hmm.
That's the relay writing error from me. I should make it more clear.

š Oh dear. That came out a hot mess. Do you have the original, to share? So that I can add it to my test data set?
Ah, I see, it's like with the Bitcoin Whitepaper, that it has text between the # and the first ##. None of my examples had that, but I just need to control for it and shove a "## Preface" tag in-between. Thanks!
