Activity Service

Description

Boxes

This service listen for various platform events and "fan-out" and denormalize them to various boxes to build events feeds for entities: nodes (files/folders activities) and users. Boxes can be "inbox" and "outbox" : inbox gather all events from other entities that the entitiy has subscribed to, whereas outbox gather all activities of the current entity. Typically, user outbox shows all activity a user ( = my activity ), user inbox is the feed of what happened on the platform that a user wants to see ( = my wall ).

Subscriptions

The service also stores the subscription between entities, basically the user "watches" on other entities. Watches are currently implemented for users watching on nodes, but it could also be used e.g. to subscribe to another user activies, or other types of events (to be defined).

Relative paths and nodes filtering

Activities are stored "absolute" : nodes have their UUID and their path is absolute referring to the inner Tree Service. It's the "client" mission to filter nodes and display their correct path depending on the user context, typically to show the node pathes inside the allowed workspaces of the user. An activity object can thus contains more than one workspace Path if a user accesses the same node from multiple workspaces. See example below and the "partOf" attribute of the first activity.

Activity Streams 2.0 (AS2)

Activities are produced in JSON format using the the W3C Activity Streams 2.0 format. This is an open specification for all events generally produced in a social network platform, each activity is mainly described by a Type, an Actor (itself an activity object of type "Person") and an Object (itself an activity object of a certain type, e.g. Document, Folder, etc...).

Types are listed under https://www.w3.org/TR/activitystreams-vocabulary/, and Pydio extends the Types list with the following types: Folder, Workspace, Digest.

AS2 datamodel also describes various types of Collections to send back a list of Activities, which Pydio uses for responses. Here is a sample output of rest call to activity service:

Activity Service also generates a Markdown summary of activities, to be used for display by various clients.

Interfaces

GRPC

Grpc service implements the activity.ActivityService (see common/proto/activity) in GRPC, to set/get subscriptions, post activities, list activities from a given Box.

REST

Rest service exposes the activities in REST format. Rest endpoints are described in common/proto/rest.proto file :

  • POST /subscriptions : post a query to list subscriptions
  • POST /stream : post a query to list activities
  • POST /subscribe : post a subscription from a given entity to another one
Subscriber

Subscriber listens to NodeChangeEvent and produces activities for nodes.

Digests

Activity service provides a scheduler-compatible "action" to generate digests from activity streams, starting at a given offest (.e.g. last activity sent in previous digest). Digest is filtering activities and grouping them by Workspace into activity collections of specific type Digest. As user can eventually access to a given node from many workspaces, events may appear multiple times under different workspaces.

Here is an example:

{
    "@context": "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
    "type": "Digest",
    "items": [
        {
            "@context": "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
            "type": "Workspace",

Documentation

Overview

Package activity stores and distributes events to users in a social-feed manner.

It is composed of two services, one GRPC for persistence layer and one REST for logic. Persistence is currently only implemented using a BoltDB store.

	// Store the last read uint ID for a given box
	StoreLastUserInbox(userId string, boxName BoxName, last []byte, activityId string) error

	// Should be wired to "USER_DELETE" and "NODE_DELETE" events
	// to remove (or archive?) deprecated queues
	Delete(ownerType activity.OwnerType, ownerId string) error
}
