Starred Podcasts to mcjones.ca

I have finally completed a piece of work I started July last year with mcjones.ca - that is having a good spot to dump all the starred podcasts from Overcast. I’ve wanted to share them or create something I can go back to reference, and this still isn’t quite that, but it is at least getting everything in one place.

The majority of the entries do not have any notes - just the name and I’ve had to go digging for links to the various podcast’s websites. Apparently I have/had 392 entries I’ve sent to Bear from Overcast with the #podcast tag.

Here’s hoping it proves to be useful with the demise of most social media lately.

Hugo Archetypes

As the first post to my TIL section where I’m trying to encourage myself to write more frequently on smaller topics; I learned about Hugo’s Archetypes.

The tl;dr is that archetypes is the template for new content. As such instead of typing out all of the metadata fields each time, I can type hugo new blog/<name>.md to get a new blog post and hugo new til/<name>.md. These are each defined in the archetypes folder in blog.md and til.md.

For example I use the below in blog.md:

+++
categories = []
tags = []
description = ""
slug = '{{ .File.BaseFileName }}'
draft = true
title = "{{ replace .Name "-" " " | title }}"
date = {{ .Date }}
author = "Micheal J."
+++
