setup announcement actor, add endpoint for actor #42

Leaving this here so it can be reviewed as I go

This is a good start. The AP stuff looks correct. we just need the inbox now so we can accept and track followers.

RangerMauve

We also need to implement the webfinger protocol. Specifically we need to resolve /.well-known/webfinger to a json file with the mime type application/jrd+json.

example: https://github.com/RangerMauve/staticpub.mauve.moe/blob/default/.well-known/webfinger

This is necessary to enable AP instances to resolve the actor. We should use announcements@{hostname of the server} as the account others would follow. e.g. @announcements@social.distributed.press

src/client/cli.ts

src/server/api/announcements.ts

src/server/api/creation.ts

src/server/api/index.ts

src/server/store/index.ts

src/scripts/add-post-to-announcements.ts

RangerMauve

Excellent progress, just some minor bits left.

src/server/api/announcements.ts

src/server/announcements.ts

this will probably be removed later

because announcements is a separate ActorStore outside the actorCache, we bypass the actorCache when trying to act on the announcements actor. this should make the generic `/:actor/inbox` endpoint work for announcements.. but not tested

* announce to announcements actor, not to newly created actor * only update required parts of announcements actor info

src/server/api/creation.ts

RangerMauve

Maybe a new API should be made to check if the actor is existing, then set info, then announce if it was new. Place the logic outside of announcements and outside of the http API. Like server/creation.ts?

src/server/announcements.ts

src/server/announcements.ts

+    if (!existedAlready && info.announce) {
+      const activity = {
+        '@context': 'https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams',
+        type: 'Note',


ActivityStreams hold activities, not Notes. This should be wrapped in a Create activity with the Note being the object.

e.g. here's how we link to notes in the staticpub example: https://github.com/RangerMauve/staticpub.mauve.moe/blob/default/outbox.jsonld#L13

We may need to store the notes in a separate store and add a new /:actor/note/:id URL to resolve them.

I don't see a requirement in the spec that states that OrderedCollections must hold Activitys. Actually, I was mostly copying off of Sutty's Jekyll implementation, which has plain Updates inside the outbox:

https://sutty.nl/outbox.jsonld -> https://sutty.nl/lanzamiento-de-publicaciones-distribuidas-en-el-fediverso-a-trav%C3%A9s-de-sutty/update/1701726785.jsonld

Am I getting something wrong?

Yeah, notice how the update you linked wraps the note in an Update activity. We should do the same here, but with a Create.

OH lol i thought Update was similar to a Note. But the ID there is just a link to the post, so do we need an endpoint for the individual Note?

We might, lets see if just wrapping is enough for now though.

otherwise .announce will never announce as it will exist beforehand

the same bug fixed in 0676758 applied to the test :)

+      object: {
+        '@context': 'https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams',
+        type: 'Note',
+        id: `${this.outboxUrl}/${nanoid()}/note`,


I think we can change this to be #note then the json-ld magic will resolve it? I'll test like this first.

I know nothing about json-ld 🤷 but sounds good to me

src/server/announcements.ts

src/server/announcements.ts

+type APActorNonStandard = APActor & {
+  publicKey: {
+    id: string
+    owner: string
+    publicKeyPem: string
+  }
+}
+


this should probably be moved elsewhere but i'm not sure where. maybe src/schemas.ts? either way it can be moved later if it's used elsewhere

Yeah mind moving it to schemas? Also maybe we could PR the field into the module? They accepted my orderedItems one

i'm looking into doing the PR but I can't find the spec that defines keypair in APActor
