Start of a multi community view feature
(programming.dev)
I started implementing a feature that lets you see posts from multiple communities at the same time. Above ive got it pulling from 5 different communities.
Done by just listing all of the communities in the url with plus signs separating them. Its not pushed out to the pangora beta site right now but ill probably try to push out a build either this weekend or during the week
Currently just shows the first 50 from each, ill try to add some sort of addition to the backend in the future that will let me query for multiple communities so I can do the first 50 out of all of them so it doesnt have things out of order for the last post on a page and the first post on the next page
Is this frontend only?
Is the plan to allow enabling rule-based grouping of communities i.e "Group all communities with the
name=programmingfrom all the connected instances" and "Group all communities withname = "linux*" AND instance != "spamserver.*""?will involve the backend eventually to clean up the posts that show up
rule based grouping is a nice idea, Ill try to get that implemented before I push this out to the test site
Woah, that'd be big (at least for me). Looking forward to it!
added functionality for the two rules
was running into rate limits when trying to check every single linked instance so ive manually put in the larger ones for now
Very nice! Once you add a backend endpoint to do it, I'm sure it'll be quite quick.
