# Proposed Plan to Integrate Mastodon Comments into HPR
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Background
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- The HPR comment system is unique and may be unfamiliar to some who want to comment.
|
||||||
|
- Mastodon's design makes it easy to leave comments on a Mastodon post.
|
||||||
|
- The proposed goal is to augment the existing HPR comment system with the ability
|
||||||
|
to comment on a HPR episode using Mastodon replies.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Process Overview
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- The HPR Mastodon bot makes a post announcing a new HPR episode is release
|
||||||
|
- A HPR host replies to the Bot's mastodon post
|
||||||
|
- Relies to the post are pulled via the mastodon API
|
||||||
|
- If the reply belongs to a verified HPR host
|
||||||
|
- Copy the reply into the comment database
|
||||||
|
- Display the comment on the HPR website
|
||||||
|
- Read the comment in the Community News
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Changes to existing Database/Website
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Add a new Mastodon Account field to the hosts table
|
||||||
|
- Add a new field to the submission form.
|
||||||
|
- Make it explicit that adding a mastodon account to the account field in the for:
|
||||||
|
- is optional - not required to submit a show
|
||||||
|
- Required for the hosts mastodon comments to be included in HPR
|
||||||
|
- Grants permission for HPR to use the comment under a CC license
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Pulling Mastodon Comments
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Develope a script to
|
||||||
|
- Parse the HPR bot posts
|
||||||
|
- Extract replies to the Bot's post
|
||||||
|
- Verify comment authors mastodon account is included in the hosts table.
|
||||||
|
- Format the replies so they can be used by the existing comment moderation process.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Moderation
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- The script can written to output data in the same format as the existing comment system
|
||||||
|
- Comments can be moderated using the existing process.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Variations
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Another Method for the commenter to grant permission to HPR to reuse the content
|
||||||
|
- CC declaration in comment or profile
|
||||||
|
- ??
|
||||||
|
- Use hash tags to identify a post as a HPR comment
