Show HN: Sparkpocketjoy – Data Explorer for Pocket
sparkpocketjoy.comI have 7+ years of articles, recipes, tweets and even bookmarks saved to Pocket (getpocket.com)
I use the tag feature a lot. On a single save, I usually end up with more than one tag. My favorite pancake recipe is tagged format-text, topic-cooking, topic-pancakes and flag-bad-parse.
Pocket's web and android apps do not have a way to filter using multiple tags at the same time, so I can't filter items that have both topic-cooking and topic-pancakes. You have to filter by one tag only, then manually search.
After years of using node.js scripts and Pocket's API to multi-tag search (and more), it finally occurred to me to share my tool so others can get more from Pocket without writing a line of code or messing around with API keys.
Sparkpocketjoy syncs a copy of your Pocket metadata to your device (persisted to disk via IndexedDB), generates some indexes (indices?!) and loads both into memory. Every query happens in-memory, so exciting your data happens as fast as you can click.
In addition to filtering by tags, you can filter by status (archived, favorited, queued), media attachments (has images or embedded videos) or text search of the title.
The landing page is a throwaway, and there's some features I really want to build, but I decided to step out of my comfort zone and show HN my unpolished but functional project. Let me know what you think!
