MOLE

Matrix Orgmode ListenER.

Project Summary

• Send your thoughts to a matrix channel! Its easy, its everywhere, and its plaintext.
• Convert individual messages in your matrix channel into todo items in orgmode
  • Assumes the same sorts of things as other mobile orgmode solutions, a mobile-refile.org file, that sort of thing.
• Eventually, come back on your main computer and refile shit accordingly.

Project Outline

• Be able to read and write orgmode from within Python (use Karlicoss' library for this)
• Be able to read and write matrix messages from within Python (use matrix nio, apparently its the Approved Shit now https://github.com/poljar/matrix-nio)
• Package using Pypi
  • Eventually I'd like the option of deploying via ansible with the community playbooks, so also build out a Dockerfile.
• Add an ansible-playbook for deploying via matrix-docker-ansible-deploy, if they'll have me.
• Use all the same packages i'm floating for developer standards at work:

Misc Project Thoughts

• My bot will have to be able to talk over HTTP, I guess.
• It'd be good if I could use pantalaimon for encryption, so messages can be sent E2E, then decrypted wherever the bot is to get added to the refile.
• Probably worth also writing some elisp that auto saves/closes the mobile-refile file if you haven't looked at it in a minute or two. Prevents weird overwrites.

TODOs

• setup all of this stuff
  • Precommit (for all your commithook needs)
    • On initial setup you likely want to run a new config against all files: pre-commit run --all-files
  • Black + commithooks; feel free to tweak line settings
    • Black is still technically pre-release; install like pipenv install -d black --pre
  • Mypy + commithooks
  • Pylint / Flake8; feel free to tweak line settings
  • Pipenv (bluh. I guess this is what work is using, so, fine.)
    • append installs with -d to add them as a dev dependency
  • Pytest + unittest.
  • Add on pydantic to mypy
  • Futz with mypy's config to require declaring types
  • Python versions with pyenv
    • This is pretty easy, though its a very stupid curl | bash. Fuckers.
    • Also some annoying prereqs that you need to be careful about; some Mac specific fuckery.

Editor bullshit

• Get LSPs shit working with my new setup:
  • auto detect pyvenv
  • resolve imports
  • etc
• make magit play nice with pre-commit hooks
