| 00:31 | <MikeSmith> | can anybody remind me what’s the Bikeshed syntax for referencing a term from a different spec? |
| 00:31 | <MikeSmith> | TabAtkins: 🦉 ? |
| 00:32 | <TabAtkins> | You just link it like a local term |
| 00:33 | <MikeSmith> | TabAtkins: OK see https://github.com/w3c/ServiceWorker/blob/master/docs/index.bs#L2277 |
| 00:34 | <MikeSmith> | [=service-workers mode=] |
| 00:34 | <MikeSmith> | that is meant to point to https://fetch.spec.whatwg.org/#request-service-workers-mode |
| 00:34 | <MikeSmith> | but it fails to resolve because I guess some hook is missing from the SW spec source |
| 00:35 | <MikeSmith> | $ bikeshed spec |
| 00:35 | <MikeSmith> | LINK ERROR: No 'dfn' refs found for 'service-workers mode'. |
| 00:35 | <MikeSmith> | <a data-link-type="dfn" data-lt="service-workers mode">service-workers mode</a> |
| 00:36 | <TabAtkins> | You running this locally or thru the API? |
| 00:38 | <MikeSmith> | locally |
| 00:38 | <TabAtkins> | Run `bikeshed update`, make sure your dfn database is up to date. |
| 01:08 | <MikeSmith> | TabAtkins: oofs yeah I remember now the Bikeshed docs say to do that |
| 01:13 | <MikeSmith> | TabAtkins: thanks, no more errors ⛄️ |
| 01:55 | <TabAtkins> | MikeSmith: You can also run `bikeshed refs` to search the refs database, to make sure the term exists and has the properties you assume it has. |
| 02:02 | <MikeSmith> | TabAtkins: coolーthanks, didn’t know about that one |
| 02:15 | <TabAtkins> | that's only your local refs, mind. lets you know if you need to update. ^_^ |
| 02:32 | <MikeSmith> | TabAtkins: ok |
| 02:34 | <MikeSmith> | so the Service Workers spec defines requirements for how UAs must process the value of the Link header for the “serviceworker” link type but it doesn’t actually define what syntax a serviceworker Link header is expected to conform to |
| 02:34 | <MikeSmith> | https://w3c.github.io/ServiceWorker/#link-header-processing |
| 02:35 | <MikeSmith> | so I am now wondering, Do we have other specs that define the syntax of the value of the Link header for some particular link type? |
| 02:35 | <MikeSmith> | HTML doesn’t have any |
| 02:36 | <MikeSmith> | and I know there are things like the WebAppSec specs that define new headers, like Referrer-Policy |
| 02:37 | <MikeSmith> | but this case is about defining the specific syntax of the value of an existing header |
| 02:40 | MikeSmith | looks through https://www.iana.org/assignments/link-relations/link-relations.xhtml |
| 02:45 | <MikeSmith> | no luck |
| 03:11 | <felixjet> | can i represent elapsed number of days with <time> tag? |
| 03:11 | <felixjet> | <time>6</time>, or even <time>Day 6</time> |
| 04:22 | <annevk> | felixjet: no, it represents time, not duration |
| 04:23 | <annevk> | felixjet: and no relative time either afaik |
| 04:58 | <felixjet> | annevk, thanks |
| 15:21 | <Lcfvs> | hi here... |
| 15:23 | <Lcfvs> | i'm looking about how to make a proposal, please... I would suggest an attribute to indicate a form data is not volatile (which may be usefull for SEO) |
| 15:28 | <annevk> | Lcfvs: https://wiki.whatwg.org/wiki/FAQ#Is_there_a_process_for_adding_new_features_to_a_specification.3F |
| 15:28 | <annevk> | Lcfvs: once you feel like you've met the bar outlined there, https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/new would be next |
| 15:28 | <Lcfvs> | @annevk thanks :) |
| 21:06 | <dmarr> | im trying to figure out the etag/if-none-match dance, when using a proxy layer. i have a GET request to requestb.in using fetch() from my spa - it seemed to get an ETAG at one point, but now i don't see it returned. anyone know how to diagnose that? |
| 21:19 | <dmarr> | my sledgehammer approach to avoid stale content in the requests to /api.x was to use cache-control: no-cache in the fetch headers. i wasn't sure how to get the if-none-match header set dynamically |
