Old notes from July doc:
------------------------
Claim types:
permanode-become:
-- implies either:
1) switching from typeless/lifeless virgin pnode into something (dynamic set, filesystem tree, etc)
2) changing versions of that base metadata (new filesystem snapshot)
-- permaNode is the thing that is changing
-- contents is the current node that represents what permaNode changes to
set-membership: add a blobref to a dynamic set
-- “permaNode” is blobref of the dynamic set
delete-claim: delete another claim (target is claim to delete)
-- “contents” is the claim blobref youre deleting
{set,add}-attribute:
-- attach a piece of metadata to something.
-- use set-attribute for single-valued attributes only: highest dated claim wins (of trusted person) e.g. “title”, “description”
-- use add-attribute for multi-valued things. e.g. “tag”
Tagging something:
{“claimType”: “add-attribute”, //
“attribute”: “tag”, // utf-8, should have list of valid attributes names, preferrably not made up by us (open social spec?)
“value”: “funny”, // value that doesnt have lasting value
“valueRef”: “sha1-blobref”, // hefty reference to a lasting value
“claimer?”: “sha1-of-the-dude-whos-signing”,
“claimDate”: “2010-07-10T17:20:03.9212Z”,
“claimType”, “permanode-become”,
“permaNode”: “sha1-pnode”,
}
filesystem root claim:
{
“camliVersion”: 1,
“camliType”: “claim”,
// Stuff for camliType “claim”:
“claimDate”: “2010-07-10T17:20:03.9212Z”, // redundant with data in ascii armored "camliSig". TODO: resolve
“claimType”, “permanode-become”,
// Stuff for “permanode-become”:
“permaNode”: “sha1-pnode”,
“contents”: “sha1-fs-node”
,"camliSigner": "digalg-blobref-to-ascii-armor-public-key-of-signer",
"camliSig": "......"}
