## Federating posts
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We repeat the same steps taken above for users in order to federate our posts.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```text
|
||
|
|
$ curl -H 'Accept: application/activity+json' https://mastodon.social/@LemmyDev/109790106847504642 | jq
|
||
|
|
{
|
||
|
|
"id": "https://mastodon.social/users/LemmyDev/statuses/109790106847504642",
|
||
|
|
"type": "Note",
|
||
|
|
"content": "<p><a href=\"https://mastodon.social/tags/lemmy\" ...",
|
||
|
|
"attributedTo": "https://mastodon.social/users/LemmyDev",
|
||
|
|
"to": [
|
||
|
|
"https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#Public"
|
||
|
|
],
|
||
|
|
"cc": [
|
||
|
|
"https://mastodon.social/users/LemmyDev/followers"
|
||
|
|
],
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The most important fields are:
|
||
|
|
- `id`: Unique identifier for this object. At the same time it is the URL where we can fetch the object from
|
||
|
|
- `type`: The type of this object
|
||
|
|
- `content`: Post text in HTML format
|
||
|
|
- `attributedTo`: ID of the user who created this post
|
||
|
|
- `to`, `cc`: Who the object is for. The special "public" URL indicates that everyone can view it. It also gets delivered to followers of the LemmyDev account.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Just like for `Person` before, we need to implement a protocol type and a database type, then implement trait `ApubObject`. See the example for details.
