Create

By Fediverse Developer Network

https://fedidevs.org/projects/server-apps/communecter/activities/create/

The Create activity is used to create new objects in Communecter, such as Note, Event, Project, or Badge.

Reference

  • Activity: Create
  • Object: A Communecter object

Internal Logic

When Communecter receives a Create activity with an object, it processes the activity based on the type of object being created. This can include Note, Event, or Project, among others.

Example

In this example, Hajavololona creates a new Event in Communecter and sends it to the public audience with a carbon copy (cc) to ArmelWanes.

{
  "@context" : "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
  "type" : "Create",
  "object" : "https://communecter.org/api/activitypub/object/id/649d514ebb9fa",
  "id" : "https://communecter.org/api/activitypub/activity/id/649d514eba30c",
  "actor" : "https://communecter.org/api/activitypub/users/u/Hajavololona",
  "published" : "2023-06-29T09:39:26+0000",
  "summary" : "Created a new Event: 'Community Meetup'",
  "to" : [ 
    "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#Public"
  ],
  "cc" : [ 
    "https://instance.communecter.org/api/activitypub/users/u/ArmelWanes"
  ]
}

Example 2

In this example, Hajavololona creates a new badge titled “Advanced Training Badge” in Communecter.


{
  "@context": "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
  "type": "Create",
  "object": {
    "type": "Badge",
    "id": "https://communecter.org/api/activitypub/badge/id/12345",
    "attachment": [
      {
        "type": "Image",
        "url": "https://example.com/badge-image.jpg"
      }
    ],
    "attributedTo": "https://communecter.org/api/activitypub/users/u/Hajavololona",
    "content": "Earned for completing advanced training courses.",
    "name": "Advanced Training Badge",
    "published": "2023-07-02T10:15:00+0000",
    "url": "https://example.com/badge-info"
  },
  "id": "https://communecter.org/api/activitypub/activity/id/649d514eba30c",
  "actor": "https://communecter.org/api/activitypub/users/u/Hajavololona",
  "published": "2023-07-02T10:15:00+0000",
  "summary": "Created a new Badge: 'Advanced Training Badge'",
  "to": [
    "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#Public"
  ],
  "cc": [
    "https://instance.communecter.org/api/activitypub/users/u/ArmelWanes"
  ]
}

The Create activity can be used to create a new organization:

Example:

{
  "@context": "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
  "type": "Create",
  "actor": "https://communecter.org/api/activitypub/users/u/JaneDoe",
  "object": {
    "type": "Organization",
    "name": "Green Earth Initiative",
    "summary": "A non-profit dedicated to environmental conservation"
  }
}
