statusphere

a reimplementation of Bluesky's Statusphere example app, using atcute and SvelteKit.

setup

1. install dependencies:

   pnpm install
   

2. set up the environment variables:

   pnpm env:setup
   

   this copies the .env.example file to .env with the following values filled in:

   • COOKIE_SECRET - random secret for signing cookies
   • OAUTH_PRIVATE_KEY_JWK - ES256 keypair for OAuth

3. start a Tap instance:

   docker run -p 2480:2480 \
     -v ./data:/data \
     -e TAP_DATABASE_URL=sqlite:///data/tap.db \
     -e TAP_SIGNAL_COLLECTION=xyz.statusphere.status \
     -e TAP_COLLECTION_FILTERS=xyz.statusphere.status,app.bsky.actor.profile \
     ghcr.io/bluesky-social/indigo/tap:latest
   

   Tap handles subscribing to the atproto firehose, backfilling repos, and filtering events. we set it up such that it'd backfill all repos that have posted a status, and only emits events for status and profile records.

   then configure the Tap connection:

   TAP_URL=http://localhost:2480
   
   # if configured with a password
   TAP_ADMIN_PASSWORD=
   

4. set up a tunnel:

   confidential OAuth clients requires a publicly accessible URL. for local development, you'll need to tunnel your local server using a service like ngrok or cloudflared.

   once running, set the tunnel URL as your public URL in .env:

   OAUTH_PUBLIC_URL=https://your-tunnel-url.example.com
   

5. migrate the database:

   pnpm db:migrate
   

6. run it!

   pnpm dev
