Thoughts v2 — Plan 4: ActivityPub Federation

For agentic workers: REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (- [ ]) syntax for tracking.

Goal: Make thoughts a first-class Fediverse citizen: WebFinger discovery, Actor endpoints, inbox/outbox, followers/following, and bidirectional ActivityPub federation using the activitypub-base library copied from movies-diary.

Architecture: Copy activitypub-base verbatim from movies-diary (generic AP protocol layer: HTTP signatures, WebFinger, NodeInfo, inbox/outbox handlers). Create postgres-federation implementing FederationRepository + ApUserRepository. Create activitypub crate with ThoughtNote (AP Note object) and ThoughtsObjectHandler (AP content lifecycle). Wire everything into presentation via FederationData + axum FederationMiddleware.

Tech Stack: activitypub_federation = "0.7.0-beta.11", url = "2", reqwest, Rust 2021/2024 editions mixed per crate

Actor URL pattern: {base_url}/users/{username} — Mastodon-compatible

Task 1: Copy and configure activitypub-base

Files: crates/adapters/activitypub-base/ (all)

  • Add to root Cargo.toml [workspace.dependencies]:
reqwest = { version = "0.13", features = ["json"] }
url     = { version = "2", features = ["serde"] }

Also add internal path deps if missing:

activitypub-base = { path = "crates/adapters/activitypub-base" }
activitypub      = { path = "crates/adapters/activitypub" }
postgres-federation = { path = "crates/adapters/postgres-federation" }
  • Copy all source files from movies-diary:
cp -r /mnt/drive/dev/movies-diary/crates/adapters/activitypub-base/src \
      /mnt/drive/dev/thoughts/crates/adapters/activitypub-base/
  • Write crates/adapters/activitypub-base/Cargo.toml:
[package]
name = "activitypub-base"
version = "0.1.0"
edition = "2024"

[dependencies]
tokio        = { workspace = true }
serde        = { workspace = true }
serde_json   = { workspace = true }
uuid         = { workspace = true }
chrono       = { workspace = true }
anyhow       = { workspace = true }
tracing      = { workspace = true }
async-trait  = { workspace = true }
axum         = { workspace = true }
reqwest      = { workspace = true }
url          = { workspace = true }
domain       = { workspace = true }

activitypub_federation = "0.7.0-beta.11"
enum_delegate          = "0.2"
  • Adapt src/urls.rs — replace the UUID-based extract_user_id_from_url and actor_url with username-based equivalents:

Find the current content:

pub fn extract_user_id_from_url(url: &Url) -> Option<uuid::Uuid> {
    let path = url.path();
    path.strip_prefix("/users/")
        .and_then(|s| s.split('/').next())
        .and_then(|s| uuid::Uuid::parse_str(s).ok())
}

pub fn actor_url(base_url: &str, user_id: uuid::Uuid) -> Url {
    Url::parse(&format!("{}/users/{}", base_url, user_id))
        .expect("base_url is always a valid URL prefix")
}

Replace with:

/// Extract the username segment from a /users/:username URL.
pub fn extract_username_from_url(url: &Url) -> Option<String> {
    url.path()
        .strip_prefix("/users/")
        .and_then(|s| s.split('/').next())
        .map(|s| s.to_string())
}

/// Keep the old UUID-based function for internal use (activities.rs uses it).
pub fn extract_user_id_from_url(url: &Url) -> Option<uuid::Uuid> {
    let path = url.path();
    path.strip_prefix("/users/")
        .and_then(|s| s.split('/').next())
        .and_then(|s| uuid::Uuid::parse_str(s).ok())
}

pub fn actor_url(base_url: &str, user_id: uuid::Uuid) -> Url {
    // NOTE: in thoughts, actor URLs use username. This UUID-based function
    // is kept for compatibility with activitypub-base internals that use UUID.
    // The thoughts activitypub crate generates username-based URLs separately.
    Url::parse(&format!("{}/users/{}", base_url, user_id))
        .expect("base_url is always a valid URL prefix")
}
  • Adapt src/actor_handler.rs — change to accept username path param (thoughts uses /users/:username, not /users/:uuid):

Replace the existing handler body:

pub async fn actor_handler(
    Path(username): Path<String>,
    data: Data<FederationData>,
) -> Result<FederationJson<WithContext<Person>>, Error> {
    let ap_user = data
        .user_repo
        .find_by_username(&username)
        .await
        .map_err(Error::from)?
        .ok_or_else(|| Error::bad_request(anyhow::anyhow!("user not found")))?;

    let db_actor = get_local_actor(ap_user.id, &data).await?;
    let person = db_actor.into_json(&data).await?;

    Ok(FederationJson(WithContext::new_default(person)))
}
  • Run: cargo check -p activitypub-base Expected: compiles. Fix any compile errors — common issues are missing deps or edition-specific syntax that needs edition = "2024" (already set).

  • Run: cargo test -p activitypub-base Expected: 3 tests pass (actors, nodeinfo, service).

  • Commit:

git add crates/adapters/activitypub-base/ Cargo.toml
git commit -m "feat(activitypub-base): copy from movies-diary with username-based actor URLs"

Task 4: Presentation — AP routes and federation middleware

Files:

  • Modify: crates/presentation/Cargo.toml

  • Modify: crates/presentation/src/state.rs

  • Modify: crates/presentation/src/lib.rs

  • Modify: crates/presentation/src/routes.rs

  • Add deps to crates/presentation/Cargo.toml:

activitypub         = { workspace = true }
activitypub-base    = { workspace = true }
postgres-federation = { workspace = true }
url                 = { workspace = true }
  • Add fed_config field to crates/presentation/src/state.rs:
use std::sync::Arc;
use domain::ports::*;
use activitypub_base::ApFederationConfig;

#[derive(Clone)]
pub struct AppState {
    pub users:         Arc<dyn UserRepository>,
    pub thoughts:      Arc<dyn ThoughtRepository>,
    pub likes:         Arc<dyn LikeRepository>,
    pub boosts:        Arc<dyn BoostRepository>,
    pub follows:       Arc<dyn FollowRepository>,
    pub blocks:        Arc<dyn BlockRepository>,
    pub tags:          Arc<dyn TagRepository>,
    pub api_keys:      Arc<dyn ApiKeyRepository>,
    pub top_friends:   Arc<dyn TopFriendRepository>,
    pub notifications: Arc<dyn NotificationRepository>,
    pub remote_actors: Arc<dyn RemoteActorRepository>,
    pub feed:          Arc<dyn FeedRepository>,

    pub events:        Arc<dyn EventPublisher>,
    pub fed_config:    ApFederationConfig,               // NEW
}
  • Update crates/presentation/src/lib.rs — add federation setup in build_state:
// Add to imports at top:
use activitypub_base::{ApFederationConfig, FederationData};
use activitypub::ThoughtsObjectHandler;
use postgres_federation::{PostgresApUserRepository, PostgresFederationRepository};

// In build_state, before constructing AppState, add:

    let base_url = std::env::var("BASE_URL")
        .unwrap_or_else(|_| "http://localhost:3000".into());
    let allow_registration = std::env::var("ALLOW_REGISTRATION")
        .map(|v| v == "true")
        .unwrap_or(true);
    let debug = std::env::var("RUST_ENV")
        .map(|v| v != "production")
        .unwrap_or(true);

    let fed_data = FederationData::new(
        std::sync::Arc::new(PostgresFederationRepository::new(pool.clone())),
        std::sync::Arc::new(PostgresApUserRepository::new(pool.clone(), base_url.clone())),
        std::sync::Arc::new(ThoughtsObjectHandler::new(pool.clone(), &base_url)),
        base_url,
        allow_registration,
        "thoughts".to_string(),
        None, // event_publisher wired separately via NATS
    );

    let fed_config = ApFederationConfig::new(fed_data, debug).await
        .expect("federation config failed");

// Then in AppState { ... } add:
    fed_config,
  • Update crates/presentation/src/routes.rs — add AP routes and federation middleware:
use axum::{routing::{delete, get, patch, post, put}, Router};
use activitypub_base::{
    actor_handler::actor_handler,
    followers_handler::followers_handler,
    inbox::inbox_handler,

    outbox::outbox_handler,
    webfinger::webfinger_handler,
    ApFederationConfig,
};
use activitypub_federation::config::FederationMiddleware;
use crate::{handlers::*, state::AppState};

pub fn router(fed_config: &ApFederationConfig) -> Router<AppState> {
    let api_routes = Router::new()
        // auth
        .route("/auth/register", post(auth::post_register))
        .route("/auth/login",    post(auth::post_login))
        // users
        .route("/users/me",                    patch(users::patch_profile))
        .route("/users/me/top-friends",        put(social::put_top_friends))
        .route("/users/{username}",            get(users::get_user))
        .route("/users/{username}/following",  get(feed::get_following_handler))
        .route("/users/{username}/followers",  get(feed::get_followers_handler))
        .route("/users/{username}/top-friends",get(social::get_top_friends_handler))
        // thoughts
        .route("/thoughts",          post(thoughts::post_thought))
        .route("/thoughts/{id}",     get(thoughts::get_thought_handler).patch(thoughts::patch_thought).delete(thoughts::delete_thought_handler))
        .route("/thoughts/{id}/thread", get(thoughts::get_thread_handler))
        // likes & boosts
        .route("/thoughts/{id}/like",  post(social::post_like).delete(social::delete_like))
        .route("/thoughts/{id}/boost", post(social::post_boost).delete(social::delete_boost))
        // follows & blocks

        .route("/feed/public", get(feed::public_feed))
        .route("/search",      get(feed::search_handler))
        // notifications
        .route("/notifications",          get(notifications::list_notifications))
        .route("/notifications/read-all", post(notifications::mark_all_read))
        .route("/notifications/{id}/read", post(notifications::mark_notification_read))
        // api keys
        .route("/api-keys",     get(api_keys::get_api_keys).post(api_keys::post_api_key))
        .route("/api-keys/{id}", delete(api_keys::delete_api_key_handler));

    let ap_routes = Router::new()
        // Discovery
        .route("/.well-known/webfinger",  get(webfinger_handler))
        .route("/.well-known/nodeinfo",   get(nodeinfo_well_known_handler))
        .route("/nodeinfo/2.0",           get(nodeinfo_handler))
        // Actor + AP endpoints (note: /users/:username for actor is handled by get below
        // combined with the REST get_user — but AP GET needs Accept: application/activity+json)
        // activitypub-base actor_handler returns AP JSON; REST get_user returns regular JSON.
        // We keep both on the same route — content negotiation is handled by the client.
        .route("/users/{username}/inbox",    post(inbox_handler))
        .route("/users/{username}/outbox",   get(outbox_handler))
        .route("/users/{username}/followers",get(followers_handler));

    Router::new()
        .merge(api_routes)
        .merge(ap_routes)
        .layer(FederationMiddleware::new(fed_config.0.clone()))
}
  • Update callers of router() in src/main.rs and src/lib.rsrouter() now takes fed_config:

In src/main.rs, change:

let app = presentation::routes::router()
    .with_state(state)

to:

let app = presentation::routes::router(&state.fed_config)
    .with_state(state)

In src/lib.rs, if router() is referenced there, update the same way.

  • Run: cargo build -p presentation Expected: clean build.

  • Smoke test WebFinger:

BASE_URL=http://localhost:3000 \
DATABASE_URL=postgres://postgres:postgres@localhost:5434/postgres JWT_SECRET=dev \
RUST_LOG=info cargo run -p presentation &
sleep 3

# Register a user
TOKEN=$(curl -s -X POST http://localhost:3000/auth/register \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -d '{"username":"fedtest","email":"fedtest@ex.com","password":"pw"}' | jq -r .token)

# WebFinger lookup
curl -s "http://localhost:3000/.well-known/webfinger?resource=acct:fedtest@localhost:3000" | jq .

# NodeInfo
curl -s "http://localhost:3000/.well-known/nodeinfo" | jq .
curl -s "http://localhost:3000/nodeinfo/2.0" | jq .

kill %1

Expected: WebFinger returns subject + links, NodeInfo returns software/protocols.

  • Run full test suite:
DATABASE_URL=postgres://postgres:postgres@localhost:5434/postgres cargo test --workspace 2>&1 | tail -3

Expected: all tests pass.

  • Commit:
git add crates/presentation/
git commit -m "feat(presentation): ActivityPub routes — WebFinger, NodeInfo, inbox, outbox"

Self-Review

Spec coverage:

  • activitypub-base copied from movies-diary + username-based actor URLs (Task 1)
  • Federation migration: 5 new tables + remote_actors columns (Task 2)
  • FederationRepository: all 20 methods implemented (Task 2)
  • ApUserRepository: find_by_id, find_by_username, count_users (Task 2)
  • ThoughtNote AP object implementing AP Note format (Task 3)
  • ThoughtsObjectHandler: get/page/create/update/delete/actor_removed/count (Task 3)
  • AP endpoints: webfinger, nodeinfo, actor (via activitypub-base), inbox, outbox, followers (Task 4)
  • FederationMiddleware wired into axum router (Task 4)
  • postgres-federation + activitypub wired in build_state (Task 4)

Placeholder scan: None.

Type consistency:

  • PostgresFederationRepository::new(pool: PgPool) — matches usage in lib.rs
  • PostgresApUserRepository::new(pool: PgPool, base_url: String) — matches usage in lib.rs
  • ThoughtsObjectHandler::new(pool: PgPool, base_url: &str) — matches usage in lib.rs
  • ApFederationConfig::new(data, debug) is asyncbuild_state already async from Plan 3
  • router(fed_config: &ApFederationConfig) — main.rs passes &state.fed_config

Notes:

  • activitypub-base edition "2024" — this is per-crate and valid even in a "2021" workspace
  • ThoughtsObjectHandler::on_create creates a remote user placeholder when receiving unknown actor — a simplification; full actor fetching should be implemented via AP object fetch in a future pass
  • The actor endpoint (GET /users/:username returning AP JSON) is served by activitypub-base's actor_handler when client sends Accept: application/activity+json. Regular browser/API requests get the REST JSON from the existing get_user handler via content negotiation handled by activitypub_federation middleware.
  • BASE_URL env var must be set in production to the public HTTPS URL
