# Jacquard

A suite of Rust crates intended to make it much easier to get started with atproto development, without sacrificing flexibility or performance.

[Jacquard is simpler](https://whtwnd.com/nonbinary.computer/3m33efvsylz2s) because it is designed in a way which makes things simple that almost every other atproto library seems to make difficult.

It is also designed around zero-copy/borrowed deserialization: types like [`Post<'_>`](https://tangled.org/@nonbinary.computer/jacquard/blob/main/crates/jacquard-api/src/app_bsky/feed/post.rs) can borrow data (via the [`CowStr<'_>`](https://docs.rs/jacquard/latest/jacquard/cowstr/enum.CowStr.html) type and a host of other types built on top of it) directly from the response buffer instead of allocating owned copies. Owned versions are themselves mostly inlined or reference-counted pointers and are therefore still quite efficient. The `IntoStatic` trait (which is derivable) makes it easy to get an owned version and avoid worrying about lifetimes.

## Goals and Features

- Validated, spec-compliant, easy to work with, and performant baseline types
- Batteries-included, but easily replaceable batteries.
   - Easy to extend with custom lexicons using code generation or handwritten api types
   - Straightforward OAuth
   - Stateless options (or options where you handle the state) for rolling your own
   - All the building blocks of the convenient abstractions are available
   - Server-side convenience features
- Lexicon Data value type for working with unknown atproto data (dag-cbor or json)
- An order of magnitude less boilerplate than some existing crates
- Use as much or as little from the crates as you need


## Example

Dead simple API client. Logs in with OAuth and prints the latest 5 posts from your timeline.

```rust
// Note: this requires the `loopback` feature enabled (it is currently by default)
use clap::Parser;
use jacquard::CowStr;
use jacquard::api::app_bsky::feed::get_timeline::GetTimeline;
use jacquard::client::{Agent, FileAuthStore};
use jacquard::oauth::client::OAuthClient;
use jacquard::oauth::loopback::LoopbackConfig;
use jacquard::types::xrpc::XrpcClient;
use miette::IntoDiagnostic;

#[derive(Parser, Debug)]
#[command(author, version, about = "Jacquard - OAuth (DPoP) loopback demo")]
struct Args {
    /// Handle (e.g., alice.bsky.social), DID, or PDS URL
    input: CowStr<'static>,

    /// Path to auth store file (will be created if missing)
    #[arg(long, default_value = "/tmp/jacquard-oauth-session.json")]
    store: String,
}

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> miette::Result<()> {
    let args = Args::parse();

    // Build an OAuth client with file-backed auth store and default localhost config
    let oauth = OAuthClient::with_default_config(FileAuthStore::new(&args.store));
    // Authenticate with a PDS, using a loopback server to handle the callback flow
    let session = oauth
        .login_with_local_server(
            args.input.clone(),
            Default::default(),
            LoopbackConfig::default(),
        )
        .await?;
    // Wrap in Agent and fetch the timeline
    let agent: Agent<_> = Agent::from(session);
    let timeline = agent
        .send(&GetTimeline::new().limit(5).build())
        .await?
        .into_output()?;
    for (i, post) in timeline.feed.iter().enumerate() {
        println!("\n{}. by {}", i + 1, post.post.author.handle);
        println!(
            "   {}",
            serde_json::to_string_pretty(&post.post.record).into_diagnostic()?
        );
    }

    Ok(())
}

```

If you have `just` installed, you can run the [examples](https://tangled.org/@nonbinary.computer/jacquard/tree/main/examples) using `just example {example-name} {ARGS}` or `just examples` to see what's available.

## Component crates

Jacquard is broken up into several crates for modularity. The correct one to use is generally `jacquard` itself, as it re-exports most of the others.

## Changelog

[CHANGELOG.md](./CHANGELOG.md)

Highlights:

- better value type deserialization helpers
- service auth implementation
- XrpcRequest derive Macros
- more builders in generated api to make constructing things easier (lmk if compile time is awful)
- `AgentSessionExt` trait with a host of convenience methods for working with records and preferences
- Improvements to the `Collection` trait, code generation, and addition of the `VecUpdate` trait to enable that
- A bunch of examples, both in the docs and in the repository
- More lexicons in the generated API bindings.

## Development

This repo uses [Flakes](https://nixos.asia/en/flakes) from the get-go.

```bash
# Dev shell
nix develop

# or run via cargo
nix develop -c cargo run

# build
nix build
```

There's also a [`justfile`](https://just.systems/) for Makefile-esque commands to be run inside of the devShell, and you can generally `cargo ...` or `just ...` whatever just fine if you don't want to use Nix and have the prerequisites installed.
