2024-11-10 Search Activity

Could we create a discovery mechanism in federated wiki using SEARCH in the Activity Plugin in combination with a roster?

We're using this Roster item in the examples below.

Selected sites wiki.dbbs.co lfi.wiki.dbbs.co wander.dbbs.co explore.dbbs.co

search

This section configures an Activity item as follows:

SEARCH Enrich

~It doesn't seem to work.~ The bug that was breaking the SEARCH keyword has now been fixed. github PR#54 .

SEARCH Enrich

discovery

Could an Activity item be configured with both ROSTER and SEARCH as a way to monitor changes in a subset of pages?

ROSTER Selected sites SEARCH Enrich

ROSTER Selected sites SEARCH Enrich

No results as of this writing. But if it could be made to work, it could support a wiki workflow that helped a group of authors to discover opportunities to negotiate new agreements.

If each author regularly checked a page configured with this kind of search:

ROSTER Cooperating Sites SEARCH Seeking SINCE 3 months

Then other Cooperating authors could publish pages with Seeking in the title to describe their request for goods or services from the cooperative.

A similar search and naming convention could enable the Cooperating authors to publish the goods or services they're offering to the cooperative:

ROSTER Cooperating Sites SEARCH Offering SINCE 3 months

Such a convention would enable the cooperating sites to discover needs and offers from their collaborators without requiring new notification mechanisms

roster

This section demonstrates a working combination of a Roster item and an Activity item.

This section configures an Activity item as follows:
