GoActivityPub library

This is an adaptation of the main ActivityPub description of side effects, while adapting it to what the Processing and Storage packages will need to do:

Create activity:¶

• Get object ID (non write)
• If Object is an actor type, try to generate its public/private key
• Write object to storage
• Get activity ID (non write)
• Write activity to storage
• Add activity/object ID to recipients collections (async with respect to writes?)

Update/Delete activity¶

• Write object to storage
• Get activity ID (non write)
• Write activity to storage
• Add activity/object ID to recipients collections (async)

Like/Dislike activity¶

• Get activity ID (non write)
• Write activity to storage
• Add activity ID to recipients collections (async)
• Add activity ID to the object’s Likes and the object’s ID to the actor’s Liked collection (async)

Announce activity¶

• Get activity ID (non write)
• Write activity to storage
• Add activity ID to recipients collections (async)
• Add activity ID to object’s Shares collection (async)

Follow activity¶

• Get activity ID (non write)
• Write activity to storage
• Add activity ID to recipients collections (async)
• If Object is remote and server responds with 201 we add it to the Actor’s followed collection.
• If Object is remote and server responds with 200 we wait for an Accept activity matching the Follow.

Accept/TentativeAccept activity¶

• Get activity ID (non-write)
• Write activity to storage
• Add activity ID to recipients collections (async)
• If object is Follow, add the actor to the the object’s Followed and object to the actor’s Following collections (async)

Reject/TentativeReject activity¶

• Get activity ID (non-write)
• Write activity to storage

Block activity¶

• Get activity ID (non write)
• Write activity to storage
• Add activity ID to recipients collections (async)
• Add object ID to the actor’s blocked collection (async). Blocked is a FedBOX custom collection.

Undo activity¶

• Process side-effects (async maybe?) This needs expansion based on type of Activity we have as an object.
• Get activity ID (non write)
• Write activity to storage
• Add activity ID to recipients collections (async)

Add/Remove activity¶

• Get activity ID (non write)
• Write activity to storage
• Add activity ID to recipients collections (async)
• Add/Remove object ID to the target, if target is a local collection (async)

Question (intransitive)activity¶

• Get activity ID (non write)
• Write to storage the items in the anyOf or oneOf properties.
• Write activity to storage
• Add activity ID to recipients collections (async)
