@tom check if this one I wrote can be of use:
https://github.com/mariusor/oni
PS: Any feedback about setting it up and configuring it for your use case will be appreciated, either here, or on github/mailing list.

@mariusor thanks! (Looks like I had already starred this one awhile ago haha) I'll check it out and see if it's what I'm looking for

@tom if it doesn't work out I'd also be interested in learning why not. :D

@tom I'm slowly working on one, but it's completely unpaid work.

@mariusor I got it running w/o many issues (maybe I missed it but I didn't see any wiki pages on building Box? I got that working as well regardless)
Is there an active issue w/ fetching oni content in Mastodon? I can't seem to grab my user or any statuses from my server or from activitypub.academy. I also tried fetching your posts (because it sounded like it at least worked last year, https://metalhead.club/@mariusor/113708953874760675) but that didn't work either so maybe I'm missing something.

@thisismissem is that related to the stuff you were doing w/ PDSes a few weeks ago or are those separate projects?

mariusor@metalhead.club is there a public instance available?

@tom I see others are pointing you in a similar direction, but funnily enough I tinkered with Social Web's ap-component test instance this afternoon!
Look at the sample client "acct-handler", too. That's what I tried today.

@tom yeah, activitypds is the research project name, but there's a bunch of upstream work in Fedify to enable C2S in Fedify, and then also to enable reusing the Fedify vocabularies (they take JSON-LD and convert into classes that Fedify understands, and handles serialisation to JSON-LD)

@tom basically the things I'm trying to solve in ActivityPDS are:
- an OAuth profile (based on AT Proto's OAuth profile)
- webfinger & DIDs & Handles
- what should a "PDS" do in the context of ActivityPub C2S, how much logic does it implement, or is it just a simple pipe? -

@evan oh yeah this should be perfect

@tom I can also send you an invite code.
There's a chapter on the social API in the ActivityPub book.

@evan I signed up to get notified for the print edition a few months ago, still prefer actually holding physical books haha

@tom I basically follow actors and that's how seeing posts by others in your /inbox works.
The frontend loads stuff directly through JavaScript fetch and needs all the mechanisms of that to work (and I imagine what you see might be things failing to load due to CORS rules being too restrictive on remote Mastodon instances)
I am not aware of any issues with receiving activities though, and in this process the objects themselves should be fully dereferenced to local copies.
I'll add a note about BOX compilation. Thanx.

@tom looking at the post of mine you linked, I realize you're probably thinking of regular object discovery, and there isn't any mechanism for it yet, or for viewing remote objects that haven't reached your inbox.
-
@julian yes, two of them:
https://rattlehead.bruta.link < where a bot posts daily metal releases scraped from the internet
https://marius.federated.id < where I write a bit about stuff and play with more expressive ActivityPub objects.

#HolosDiscover is back, from a clean slate.
A #Fediverse search engine that uses standard #ActivityPub federation. It follows you like any account, respects indexable flags, #nobot, #noindex, locked accounts. Deletions, edits, blocks are processed instantly through ActivityPub.
You have full control. Block it, mention it with "unfollow", or disable indexing in your settings.

Yes, very likely.
When I built the core software for a bank more than a decade ago, I did the same.

There isn’t anything that says my server should return the latest known state of a post, including my interactions with it.
And sure, I can refetch any activity from the inbox via proxyUrl (except non-public), but nothing guarantees my server will add the current remote state of a post to its internal representation and return this.
So this forces a thick client situation, to have what should be fairly standard User Experience.
-
Of course implementations may vary but the spec isn’t clear, so let’s improve this, yeah! https://github.com/swicg/activitypub-api/issues/52
-
ActivityPub client developer experience is something like this.
Building a coherent feed with stateful objects requires comparing an Activity from the inbox, with what’s in your outbox.

@reiver@mastodon.social pretty sure this kind of ambiguios why Stripe represents everything in cents, no? 😏
-
AFAIK, it is an IETF JSON thing, and wasn't part of the original (pre-IETF) JSON.
Here's the oldest version of the JSON spec I could find:
https://web.archive.org/web/20030228034147/http://www.crockford.com/JSON/index.html
It defines "number" as in the screen-shot, and doesn't say anything about floating-point numbers.
...
I do agree with you that the reason IETF JSON talked about floating-point numbers is almost certainly because of JavaScript.
-
@reiver that's a json thing, which is itself a JavaScript thing. JS doesn't have an integer type, only number, which is a double precision floating point. Json is a serialization spec for JavaScript objects, and jsonld is spec for pretending that adding one property to a json document makes it a collection of rdf triples and then getting mad about it when the rest of the world just wants things to be parseable
