Service for posting to a Jekyll blog via email
With a particular focus on posting images. Intended to run in a Docker container, exposing an HTTP endpoint for submitting emails to be processed. Integrates with your/a email account via procmail:
## set ADDR_EXT to "Bar" of "[email protected]"
## postfix turns this into "bar", which breaks HMAC validation. :-(
ADDR_EXT=` formail -z -xTo: | sed -r -e 's#^.*\+(.*)@.*$#\1#g' `
## figure out who actually sent the message
SENDER = `formail -rtz -xTo:`
:0 w
| curl -s -f -H 'Content-Type: message/rfc822' --data-binary @- localhost:5000/email/$SENDER/$ADDR_EXT
Stores any image attachments in S3 and adds a new post to your Jekyll repository. References to the images are captured in the frontmatter.
