This library is used to generate the `go-fed/activity/vocab` library
|
|
|
|
|
implementation. Changes to this will fundamentally change the implementation of
|
|
|
|
|
the `vocab` library. If custom ActivityStream types are required, no changes to
|
|
|
|
|
this are required. Instead, the `go-fed/activity/tools/defs` library will need
|
|
|
|
|
edits.

Creating a static type implementation from the specification is not
|
|
|
|
|
straightforward due to the following considerations that stem from its roots in
|
|
|
|
|
JSON-LD:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Any property could be an IRI (`url.URL`)
|
|
|
|
|
* Most properties could be another ActivityStream type
|
|
|
|
|
(`map[string]interface{}`) or a value (`time.Time`, etc)
|
|
|
|
|
* Most properties can have multiple values (`[]interface{}`)
|
|
|
|
|
* In a multiple value scenario, each value could once more be an IRI, another
|
|
|
|
|
ActivityStream type, or a value
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The current generation algorithm leaves ample opportunity for improvements and
|
|
|
|
|
optimizations.
