 # fediverse-session
 
-The library lets an app take a Fediverse handle or a WebID and act as that
-account.
-
-- **`login`** — sends the person to wherever their account signs in, their
-  Mastodon server or their pod, and brings them back to where they were.
-- **`resume`** — on every page load, finishes a sign-in they are coming back
-  from. Otherwise does nothing.
-- **`current`** — the signed-in account, or nothing.
-- **`signOut`** — signs them out, at their server or pod as well as in the
-  browser.
-- **`describe`** — says what an address is without signing in: a Mastodon
-  account or a pod account, and its handle.
-
-Once signed in, the account gives you:
-
-- **`post`** — publishes a post as them, public, unlisted or followers-only.
-- **`reply`** — answers a post.
-- **`timeline`** — their home timeline, newest first.
-- **`outbox`** — their own posts, newest first. Pass `rdf: true` to also get
-  the real thing as RDF, for an app that wants to work with it as linked
-  data rather than as this library's own shape.
-- **`follow`** — follows someone by handle.
-- **`favourite`**, **`boost`** — as they say.
-- **`profile`** — who they are as their server or pod shows them: name,
-  handle, picture, bio, counts, profile page, and the WebID for a pod
-  account.
-- **`notice`** — a sentence to show them, or nothing. A browser-based
-  FediPod account gets: "Because you have a browser-based account, your
-  posts and interactions will only go out to the Fediverse when your browser
-  is opened to your account."
-- **`handle`, `name`, `kind`** — who they are, and whether the account is on
-  Mastodon or a pod, for an app that wants to know.
-- **`signOut`** — the same as above.
-
-The app never asks which kind it has. A Mastodon account acts at once. A
-pod account's actions are carried out by its own agent, at once for a
-DeviceAgent or Server account, and when fedipod.net is next open for a
-browser-based one.
-
-Three files, no dependencies. It runs in a page and in a service worker.
-The one exception: `outbox({ rdf: true })` needs the `jsonld` package, and
-only loads it when that flag is actually used.
-
-[The demo](https://jeff-zucker.github.io/FediPod/) shows the sign-in and
-the profile that comes back.
-
-## Get it
-
-From a CDN, with nothing to install:
-
-```js
-import { fediAccount } from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/fediverse-session@0.2.1/fedi-account.mjs';
-```
-
-Or from npm:
-
-```bash
-npm install fediverse-session
-```
-
-```js
-import { fediAccount } from 'fediverse-session';
-```
-
-## Use
-
-```js
-import { fediAccount } from 'fediverse-session';
-const accounts = fediAccount({ dbName: 'my-app', clientName: 'My app' });
-
-await accounts.resume();                                   // on every page load
-
-signInButton.onclick = () => accounts.login(addressField.value);
-
-const me = await accounts.current();                       // null when nobody is signed in
-if (me?.notice) show(me.notice);
-await me.post({ text: 'Hello from my app' });
-for (const p of await me.timeline({ limit: 20 })) render(p);
-for (const p of await me.outbox({ limit: 20 })) render(p);
-await me.follow('@aisha@her.server');
-await me.reply(p.url, 'Well said');
-await me.signOut();
-```
-
-## The details
-
-- **`fediAccount({ dbName, clientName })`** — sets the library up for your
-  app, once. `dbName` keeps this app's sign-ins apart from another app's on
-  the same origin. `clientName` is what the person sees on the consent
-  screen.
-- **`login(address, { returnTo, redirectUri })`** — `@kwame@mastodon.social`
-  goes to Mastodon; `@mei@fedipod.net`, or a WebID, goes to the pod. They
-  come back to this page unless `redirectUri` says otherwise, and are
-  returned to where they were unless `returnTo` says otherwise.
-- **`post({ text, inReplyTo, visibility })`** — `visibility` is `public`,
-  `unlisted` or `followers`.
-- **`reply(post, text)`** — the post is named by its address or its id.
-- **`timeline({ limit })`** — each post as `{ id, url, author: { id, handle,
-  name }, html, published, inReplyTo }`.
-- **`outbox({ limit, rdf })`** — the same shape as `timeline`, but only this
-  account's own posts. With `rdf: true`, the returned array also carries
-  `.rdf`: the real outbox parsed into an RDF/JS quad array — for a Mastodon
-  account too, since a Mastodon server is itself an ActivityPub server with
-  a real actor and outbox, same as a pod's. It comes back empty on a server
-  that requires a signed request just to read that document, which some
-  do. Reading it needs the `jsonld` package available to your app; without
-  `rdf: true` nothing changes and nothing extra loads.
-- **`fetch`** — the raw authenticated fetch, for anything the above does not
-  cover.
-- **`actor`** — the account's ActivityPub id.
-
-Every action answers `{ sent: true }` when the server did it, or `{ queued:
-true }` when the account's own agent will carry it out.
-
-## What it cannot do
-
-- **An address whose server is neither a Mastodon-family server nor a Solid
-  pod** is refused with a sentence naming the host.
-- **A browser-based FediPod account acts when its browser is open.** Posts,
-  follows and replies wait at the account's outbox until fedipod.net is next
-  open in some browser, and its timeline is the one that browser last built.
-  The account's `notice` says so; show it.
-- **A Mastodon account has no pod.** An app that keeps things on a pod has
-  nowhere to keep them for such a person.
-
-## Where the sign-in goes, and what stays in the browser
-
-A Mastodon account signs in at its own server, which asks the person to
-approve your app once. The token it grants stays in their browser and is
-handed back to the server at sign-out.
-
-A pod account signs in at the pod's login provider. The key that proves the
-sign-in is made in the browser and cannot be read out of it, even by a
-script on the page. The person stays signed in across browser restarts
-until they sign out, and sign-out is reported to the provider.
