HPI

I'm rooting to get access to my own data (typically in sqlite databases in protected /data/data partition). Then I feed it into HPI (Human Programming Interface) [1], and from that it gets into my plaintext search system [2] or promnesia [3] [1] https://github.com/karlicoss/HPI#readme [2] https://beepb00p.xyz/pkm-search.html#personal_information [3] https://beepb00p.xyz/promnesia.html

My version of this: Human Programming Interface https://github.com/karlicoss/HPI It's a bit heavier on the automatic data aggregation side, but has some manual inputs as data sources too. I'm hoping to make it easier to interface with existing tools for data analysis, dashboards, notebooks etc.

Oooh, I'm a big fun of lifelogging! You might want to check out some of my projects like https://github.com/karlicoss/HPI#readme :)

This is my approach! I'm using HPI [0] as a sort of universal API for almost all of my data (manual notes, bookmarks, instant messages, internet comments, etc) Then I use it in tools like Orger [1] and Promnesia [2,3] which function as my second brain [0] https://github.com/karlicoss/HPI [1] https://github.com/karlicoss/orger [2] https://beepb00p.xyz/promnesia.html [3] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23668507

The code is here: https://github.com/diegov/searchbox But don't let its attempt at a friendly README fool you, it's personal-grade software of "works-on-my-machine", and barely, quality. If you want to look at something more polished, I think https://github.com/amirgamil/apollo and https://github.com/thesephist/monocle are worth taking a look. Also there's the https://github.com/karlicoss/HPI library, which you could build on, though it mainly relies on data dumps from the different services instead of crawling and fetching through APIs, which is why I didn't use it. Keeping up with API changes is bad enough, I don't want to deal with undocumented dump formats...

I suppose HPI[0] kind of is that? ;) A community repository would be super nice for those. Something along the lines of DefinitelyTyped[1], all managed through git, easily integrates with other stuff (like shown on npmjs.org when the @types package exists), allows maintainers to "own" the adapters they contribute by making a PR. It's really the N adapters * T time per adapter that really makes it hard for one person to do. That plus monitoring API changes/flakiness of each adapter to make sure the data is still solid.

I'm working on tools/projects to unify, access, interact and use my personal data for quantified self, knowledge management, etc. A couple of examples: - https://github.com/karlicoss/HPI#readme - https://github.com/karlicoss/promnesia#readme Would very much love to discuss it with other people, collaborate etc.
