JSON-LD Helper

by Cloudmate

---

Why use this library?

When receive JSON-LD,

{
  "@context": "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
  "name": "juunini",
  "type": "Person",
  "id": "juunini"
}

is equals

{
  "@context": "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
  "as:name": "juunini",
  "type": "Person",
  "@id": "juunini"
}

and it also equals

[
  {
    "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#name": [
      {
        "@value": "juunini"
      }
    ],
    "@id": "juunini",
    "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#type": [
      {
        "@value": "Person"
      }
    ]
  }
]

when receive any shape of JSON-LD, we can parse and use same interface.

Usage

import { JsonLDReader } from '@cloudmatelabs/jsonld-helper'

const jsonld = await JsonLDReader.parse({
  "@context": [
    "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
    {
      "manuallyApprovesFollowers": "as:manuallyApprovesFollowers"
    }
  ],
  "@id": "https://mastodon.social/users/juunini",
  "as:type": "Person",
  "url": "https://mastodon.social/@juunini",
  "as:image": {
    "@type": "Image",
    "as:mediaType": "image/png",
    "url": "https://files.mastodon.social/accounts/headers/109/408/471/076/954/889/original/f4158a0d06a05763.png"
  },
  "manuallyApprovesFollowers": "true"
})

const imageType = jsonld
  .read('image')
  .read('mediaType')
  .stringOrElse('')
// image/png

const imageURL = jsonld
  .read('image')
  .read('url')
  .stringOrThrow()
// https://files.mastodon.social/accounts/headers/109/408/471/076/954/889/original/f4158a0d06a05763.png

const id = jsonld.read('id').get()
const id = jsonld.read('@id').get()
// https://mastodon.social/users/juunini

const type = jsonld.read('type').get()
const type = jsonld.read('@type').get()
// Person

const manuallyApprovesFollowers = jsonld
  .read('manuallyApprovesFollowers')
  .booleanOrElse(false)
// true
