Update your pronouns (currently only on Zoom)

Hello!

If you need to reach me then the best way is via Slack. If we do not share a common Slack space then I probably don't want to talk to you

Most of my contributions under this account are to private repos so the below stats are incredibly inaccurate, but it should give you an idea on what I like to work on

pronounskit's Issues

Architectural design

This is kinda working for updating pronouns in a single place, but how do we do it for multiple places?

There's been a suggestion of using name.pn as a single source of truth and branching out from there, but it is limited in which pronouns it supports so we might be better building our own single source of truth and making name.pn one of the places we update

Do we try and build everything in one single CLI? Do we make it more like pluralkit where we only update one place via a central server but have webhooks to let people update elsewhere?

What other places do we want to update anyway? Slack is harder than it should be due to requiring admin approval of new apps, name.pn is read-only, intranets are probably too specific an implementation, workday sounds like it's going to be hard (and generally emails your manager on every change).

Zoom updates fails if current pronouns are unset

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?><result><code>300</code><message>Validation Failed.</message><errors><field>pronounsOption</field><message>Invalid field.</message></errors></result>

This can be reproduced by clearing pronouns by running pronounskit ""

pronounskit.json should use an absolute path

writing it to the current directory means you end up with copies of the file all over the place and keep having to login again
