ActivityPub Types

TypeScript typings for ActivityPub

Installation

npm i activitypub-types
# or
yarn add activitypub-types

How to use

Implemented and documented every structure from specification. You can use interfaces and extend them by yourself, or you can use specified fields types.

To specify object use correct type:

import { APAdd } from 'activitypub-types';
const addActivity: APAdd = {
    type: 'Add',
    actor: 'https://actor.example.org',
    // ...
}

Fields in types are pretty flexible, so you can pass different variations:

import { APAdd, APActor } from 'activitypub-types';

const actor1 = 'https://actor.example.org';

const actor2: APActor = {
    type: 'Person',
    id: 'https://actor2.example.org',
    summary: 'Another actor',
    inbox: 'https://actor2.example.org/inbox',
    outbox: 'https://actor2.example.org/outbox',
};

const addActivity: APAdd = {
    type: 'Add',
    actor: [actor1, actor2],
    // ...
};

To provide @context field use APRoot:

import { APAdd, APRoot } from 'activitypub-types';

const addActivity: APRoot<APAdd> = {
    '@context': 'https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams',
    type: 'Add',
    // ...
}

If you need field types themselves, you can import as well:

import { TypeField, NameField } from 'activitypub-types';

interface APExample {
    type: TypeField;
    name?: NameField;
    // ...
}
