Agora Bridge

• A service run by the flancia collective.
  • git https://github.com/flancian/agora-bridge
    • go git
  • Provides write functions into an agora.
    • It ingests content into the Agora from different sources: git, fedwiki, mastodon, twitter as of 2022-09-25.
  • An integration hub that hosts bots, clients and bridges.
    • siphons of public utility.
  • It tries to assist its users first and foremost; optionally it allows any agora to interact with social networks, the fediverse and the internet at large -- always as is the intent of its users.
  • Bridges are configured with yaml.
    • The main configuration file for the service is bridges yaml; it can be passed to the service as a parameter.
    • Bridges can be of type input, output or bidirectional (r/w/rw).
      • The default input bridge is git.
      • The default output bridge is to a filesystem as per git pull.
    • A per user agora yaml can be volunteered -- as part of a digital garden if the user participates in an agora community). This file serves to configure an agora for the user. agora actions may then take place, including on demand rendering through agora server and running of agora actions.
      • Signing up to an agora involves pointing an agora bridge, run by you or by a community, to your configuration file as published somewhere on the internet.
