SaturdayMP Show 89: PostCast (Part 10 – Integration Tests and Keyring Saving)

https://youtu.be/RjX6LpxeFm4

Omar is back! We really got into the zone and recorded our longest PostCast video yet. Might be the longest SaturdayMP Show video yet. We don't edit out mistakes, so watch along as we learn in real time:

- how to write integration tests in Go (build tags vs. -short flag)
- how to create test setup/teardown in Go
- that the go-keyring library has mocking built in so we can simplify our tests
- how to connect our keyring logic to the Fyne GUI

Do you like or dislike the long live coding sessions? Should we try coding live instead of mostly live? Let us know in a constructive and polite manor.

SaturdayMP Show 87: Creating PostCast (Part 9 – Figuring Out Testing in Go)

https://youtu.be/ISXbVjTKN4c

In this episode Omar and myself figure out how to add tests in Go. We try the built-in Go testing framework but then settle on using Testify. Testify allows writing assertions like other testing frameworks we are used to. We also experiment with different ways to do mocking Go and try to figure out what the Go error object is.

SaturdayMP Show 86: Creating PostCast (Part 8 – Investigate Keyring Libraries)

https://youtu.be/PRRHTxUAo00

In this episode Omar Ashour and myself (Chris C.) investigate several Golang keyring libraries and try to get the keyring to work on my Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). Spoiler: it was working all along, I was just too dumb to notice. Learned about Seahorse, a handy tool for viewing keychain entries.

We also discuses what the Windows Registry. Spoiler: it is just a big dumping ground of key-value pairs.

In Episode 191, Scott Piehler's topics include: Aussie Socceroos in Alameda. No Teslas for APD. City Council preview. Oakland-Alameda Access Project gets a little easier. Former Rear Commodore of the Ballena Bay Yacht Club charged. AFD, APD and Animal Control keep busy. Winter birds. And lots to do this Valentine’s Day Weekend. https://alamedapost.com/features/podcast/alameda-postcast-for-02-13-2026/

In episode 84 of the SaturdayMP show, Omar and myself create a very basic main screen using Fyne to input the text to post and a button to create the LinkedIn post. That said, the GUI doesn't do anything yet, except look nice-ish. Lots of reading the Fyne documentation and experimenting with Fyne.

SaturdayMP Show 83: Creating PostCast (Part 5 – Go PoC for LinkedIn API)

https://youtu.be/jvj9GxPCYSo

We, myelf and Omar, get a Proof of Concept (PoC) in Go that completes the LinkedIn authorization. We end up figuring out the difference between a LinkedIn code and token. Get a code by entering your LinkedIn username and password, then use that code to get a token. We also spin up a local webserver to deal with the callback which is required to enter credentials and get the code.

SaturdayMP Show 82: Creating PostCast (Part 4 – Figuring out LinkedIn API)

https://youtu.be/1QtsLWfrNQQ

Turns out getting a LinkedIn API key is confusing, at least for us. Did you know you need an Organization Page on LinkedIn to get a key? You can't just get an API key for yourself. No actual coding in this video, just lots of reading the LinkedIn docs and getting some curl scripts to work. If you have any tips for using LinkedIn API, let us know in the comments.

SaturdayMP Show 79: Creating PostCast (Part 1 – Setting up Go Environment)

https://youtu.be/lMT_l2QjNFc

Happy New Year everyone! In this video I start on the PostCast* app, and this video turned out to be an hour of getting Go and Fyne set up. I've never used Go before, so it was a learning curve but not too bad.

Do you have any suggestions for improving my setup? If so, let me know. I'm sure I got something wrong and/or something could be improved.
