Making Buttons On A Local Hugo Site To Edit The Files

I realized that doing streams is a lot like Rubber Duck Debugging. Talking to the stream makes you think through things the same way you would to the duck (or, you know, to someone else.)
Also, I don't really use it for debugging, but instead of a duck, I have a Memento Mori.
Notes from the stream:
- Running PHP in MAMP, you can use this to launch a file in whatever editor it's defaulted to:
shell_exec('open /path/to/file/index.md');
- Here's the stuff I tried that didn't work:
exec("'/Applications/Sublime Text.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl' /Users/alans/woodshed/launchpad/html-prod");
exec("python -c 'import os; os.system(\'/usr/local/bin/st\')'");
$cmd = "python -c 'import os; os.system(\"open /Users/alans\")'";
exec($cmd);
$cmd = 'open "/Applications/Sublime Text.app"';
exec($cmd);
$cmd = "python -c 'import os; os.system(\"/usr/local/bin/st\")'";
exec($cmd);
$cmd = '"/Applications/Sublime Text.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl"';
exec($cmd);
shell_exec('/bin/bash -c open .');

This is a great piece of code from stackify that setups up so you can send php messages to the console.

<?php
function console_log($output, $with_script_tags = true) {
$js_code = 'console.log(' . json_encode($output, JSON_HEX_TAG) .
');';
if ($with_script_tags) {
$js_code = '<script>' . $js_code . '</script>';
}
echo $js_code;
}
- The final thing is that I ended up using parse-url instead of split based on feedback in chat. It's good stuff: https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.parse-url.php
