..
actions	Add a comment in UserxrdAction warning future maintainers not to break domain migrations if adding domain checking to the webfinger lookup in future.	2010-09-27 11:38:26 -07:00
classes	Always specify UTF-8 targt charset for html_entity_decode(); default is 8-bit ISO-8859-1 which causes things to break when we later pass them through things that expect to work with UTF-8. For instance, running through preg_replace() with the /u option results in NULL, leading to problems with OStatus and SubMirror generating their plaintext versions and doing length-cropping.	2010-09-30 11:29:31 -07:00
extlib	Updated Math_Biginteger from upstream - removing safe* workarounds	2010-03-24 15:18:41 -04:00
images	First steps on converting FeedSub into the pub/sub basis for OStatus communications:	2010-02-08 11:15:29 -08:00
js	Moved StatusNetInstance into SN in util.js	2010-02-24 16:35:20 +01:00
lib	* i18n/L10n update	2010-09-19 15:17:36 +02:00
locale	Localisation updates from http://translatewiki.net	2010-10-03 22:46:38 +02:00
scripts	Enhanced OStatus fixup-shadow.php cleanup script to check for direct matches against user.uri and user_group.uri (for local groups). This should catch cases that were missed before because we were only doing pattern-matching checks, and the pattern didn't match because the site has been renamed and the old URI no longer matches the current domain / path structure.	2010-09-27 14:23:10 -07:00
tests	Bump up HTTP timeout for OStatus remote-tests.php to 60 seconds; when running without queues and with only bcmath, salmon key generation is absurdly slow.	2010-09-20 16:26:50 -07:00
theme/base/css	Slight right alignment for remote button in minilists	2010-03-04 13:43:28 -05:00
OStatusPlugin.php	User user_group.uri to look up local groups for OStatus addressing checks when available. Will still fall back to the URL-scheme-checking code if there's no matching user_group record.	2010-09-27 11:29:54 -07:00
README	Initial support for third-party fallback hub such as Superfeedr for feed subscriptions.	2010-08-10 12:57:40 -07:00

README

Plugin to support importing and exporting notices through Atom and RSS feeds.
The OStatus plugin concentrates on user-to-user cases for federating StatusNet
and similar social networking / microblogging / blogging sites, but includes
low-level feed subscription systems which are used by some other plugins.

Uses PubSubHubbub for push feed updates; currently non-PuSH feeds cannot be
subscribed unless an external PuSH hub proxy is used.


Configuration options available:

$config['ostatus']['hub']
    (default internal hub)
    Set to URL of an external PuSH hub to use it instead of our internal hub
    for sending outgoing updates in user and group feeds.

$config['ostatus']['hub_retries']
    (default 0)
    Number of times to retry a PuSH send to consumers if using internal hub


Settings controlling incoming feed subscription:

$config['feedsub']['fallback_hub']
    To subscribe to feeds that don't have a hub, an external PuSH proxy hub
    such as Superfeedr may be used. Any feed without a hub of its own will
    be subscribed through the specified hub URL instead. If the external hub
    has usage charges, be aware that there is no restriction placed to how
    many feeds may be subscribed!

    $config['feedsub']['fallback_hub'] = 'https://superfeedr.com/hubbub';

$config['feedsub']['hub_user']
$config['feedsub']['hub_password']
    If using the fallback hub mode, these settings may be used to provide
    HTTP authentication credentials for contacting the hub. Default hubs
    specified from feeds are assumed to not require


For testing, shouldn't be used in production:

$config['ostatus']['skip_signatures']
    (default use signatures)
    Disable generation and validation of Salmon magicenv signatures

$config['feedsub']['nohub']
    (default require hub)
    Allow low-level feed subscription setup for feeds without hubs.
    Not actually usable at this stage, OStatus will check for hubs too
    and we have no polling backend. (The fallback hub option can be used
    with a 3rd-party service to provide such polling.)


Todo:
* better support for feeds that aren't natively oriented at social networking
* make use of tags/categories from feeds
* better repeat handling
