| [07:39:34] | <symbioquine[m]> | Remember all plants(/species) were invasive or aggressive out-competitors at (at least) one point in their history 🤓 |

(The QR code itself has been replaced with a dummy version for privacy/security reasons, but the real version is still scannable and you can get an idea of how well the text has weathered from the "L8" part.) |
| [08:53:43] | <aislinnpearson[m]> | <mstenta[m]> "Maybe a happy medium would be to..." <- I recommend this software for recording steps Mike (of that is relevant to this discussion) https://folge.me/ |
| [09:34:00] | <P[m]> | <fosten[m]> "For those who like native plants..." <- Oh, I've had "the nature of oaks" on my wishlist for a while now. Which book do you recommend from him? |
| [09:34:53] | <P[m]> | <symbioquine[m]> "Remember all plants(/species..." <- "native to when?" and at what point do you shift?! |
| [09:35:14] | <mstenta[m]> | life is an invasive species! |
| [09:35:27] | <mstenta[m]> | 😉 |
| [09:35:54] | <mstenta[m]> | all the rocks were perfectly happy before we came along |
| [09:37:11] | <symbioquine[m]> | We "just" need to make sure we're thinking forward rather than backwards (w.r.t. climate change) when we use "is this native" as a tool for stewarding land. |
| [09:39:00] | <symbioquine[m]> | Acknowledging, obviously, that humans have a terrible track record with the effects of our introduction/eradication of species on ecosystems. |
| [09:42:57] | <P[m]> | <mstenta[m]> "all the rocks were perfectly..." <- That's got some real 'Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy" vibe to me. |
| [12:14:52] | <mstenta[m]> | farmOS 3.2.0 blog post for review: https://github.com/farmOS/farmOS-community-blog/pull/27 |
| [12:15:02] | <mstenta[m]> | (farmOS 3.2.1 release coming soon too....) |

| [13:10:43] | <sj-techjorblad[m]> | Looks really promising 👍 |
| [13:12:28] | <fosten[m]> | <P[m]> "Oh, I've had "the nature of oaks..." <- All of them! Bringing Nature Home is great. Our county Master Gardener group brought him in to discuss his latest book Nature's Best Hope. |
| [13:13:29] | <mstenta[m]> | daaaang that's slick |
| [13:18:44] | <symbioquine[m]> | Right now it's a custom plugin we're using in our farmOS instance, but I'd like to release it for other folks to use sometimes |
| [13:19:05] | <symbioquine[m]> | *sometime soon |
| [13:20:06] | <symbioquine[m]> | I don't know how much other folks plant blocks within their beds/fields though... |
| [13:21:21] | <mstenta[m]> | I would use this! |
| [13:21:38] | <symbioquine[m]> | It should be pretty easy to generalize that logic a bit to model row plantings too - so I imagine that might make it a good fit for market garden kinds of operations. |
| [13:22:02] | <mstenta[m]> | Is this decrementing inventory too? |
| [13:22:10] | <mstenta[m]> | How does the "seed source" bit work? |
| [13:22:54] | <symbioquine[m]> | In this case it isn't since we're not tracking inventory for our garlic |
| [13:23:37] | <symbioquine[m]> | But it has that capability when we plant from specific seed assets instead of just a plant type. |
| [13:26:47] | <symbioquine[m]> | mstenta[m]: You can either specify a seed to plant from or just a plant type term - in the former case the seed weight is required and is used to decrement the inventory of that seed asset. |
| [13:28:22] | <mstenta[m]> | interesting! |
| [13:37:04] | <symbioquine[m]> | It does bake-in some of our conventions and I'm not sure if I ever plan to vend it as a default Asset Link plugin, but I'm open to the idea of converging on some version that could be included in Asset Link by default. |
| [13:37:39] | <mstenta[m]> | Yea makes me wonder: is it possible for an asset link plugin to alter another asset link plugin? |
| [13:37:55] | <mstenta[m]> | eg: if a "generic" plugin were provided, but you wanted to add some customizations on top |
| [13:47:48] | <symbioquine[m]> | Yes, there are two main ways that can occur... |
| [13:48:37] | <symbioquine[m]> | https://symbioquine.github.io/farmOS_asset_link/tutorial-extension-model... |
| [13:49:28] | <mstenta[m]> | Wow this documentation has come a long way! |
| [13:49:41] | <symbioquine[m]> | Yeah |
| [13:52:20] | <mstenta[m]> | As a non-Vue.js dev, would you recommend learning some basics before diving into this? |
| [13:52:55] | <symbioquine[m]> | <symbioquine[m]> "Yes, there are two main ways..." <- The most common way this happens is that pugins can consume "slots" from other plugins. |
| [13:53:30] | <symbioquine[m]> | The less common way is that some plugins can be interpreted as data by other plugins. |
| [13:54:22] | <symbioquine[m]> | So you could have a yml file defining a convention and another plugin could use that to do useful stuff on its behalf. |
| [13:59:53] | <symbioquine[m]> | <mstenta[m]> "As a non-Vue.js dev, would you..." <- Not much. But a quick tutorial or two couldn't hurt. |
| [14:01:10] | <symbioquine[m]> | I'm also happy to answer questions or make quick demos showing how to accomplish stuff in Asset Link. |
| [14:01:41] | <symbioquine[m]> | There's already quite a few of those in the forum too. |
