Has anyone evaluated headless #activityPub servers? I'm thinking of something that could be used with Ghost subscriptions giving posting access to a site forum and blog comments. I suppose it doesn't have to be truly headless as long as there's some sort of authentication API.

@tokyo_0 Whoever shows up and contributes. So you could!

@julian yes. BadgeFed has an API. But the concept is really simple, it is a Note (or Document) that has an attachment. The attachment is a property of the ActivityPub object usually used for videos or images. In this case the attachment includes a full OpenBadge object.
The only restriction is that the Note attributed (activitypub actor) MUST be the url in the OpenBadge issuer (issuer = actor). Also the recipient url from the OpenBadge SHOULD be mentioned in the Note.
With this simple mechanism you can pretty much create a compatible badge that can be decentralized with BadgeFed.

@mapache@hachyderm.io from what I understand you're using the ActivityPub note for compatibility. I wonder if a custom object type might open more doors.
Doesn't really matter, just thinking out loud 🙂
Does BadgeFed have an API to create new badges? Or fetch badges?
-
@julian absolutely, but I think I don't fully get it, could you elaborate?
-
@mapache@hachyderm.io I may consider building out a plugin for Badgefed.
Any chance you might consider using a new object type, e.g. Badge?

@fajfer @mike @fediverse @badgefed what event management system are you using? I am interested in see how to do a closer integration.
