Pubstrate progress for 2016-08-23
Aside from releasing a new working draft of ActivityPub, I've been busy on Pubstrate. Highlights for the last 2 days:
- Added a date parsing module, including parsing RFC 3339 dates using irregex. Also pulled in some existing tools from Guile's http modules to parse the smattering of HTTP acceptable dates.
- Added tests for above.
- Added a module for handling cookies
- Switched references of "storage" to "store", consolidating to one word
Things are chugging along consistently for the last few weeks. I feel pretty good about the speed.
Coming up next throughout the week:
- Signed cookies for sessions god damnit, powered by libgcrypt
- More rendering of various activity types
- Pagination on the user's homepage
- Login/logout/etc stuff for the web UI
- Forms to submit activities via the web UI
Coming up moderately soon:
- Better normalizing/denormalizing (fat/lean representations) of AS2 models within store
- An independent client not driven by the REPL, not in the web UI. Either ncurses or GTK?
- Getting the federation side of things demo'able :)
