ForgeFed Modeling - draft - 2023-01-31 main 9d37710

1 Abstract

This document describes the rules and guidelines for representing version control and project management related objects as linked data, using the ForgeFed vocabulary, ActivityStreams 2, and other related vocabularies.

2 Introduction

The ForgeFed modeling specification is a set of rules and guidelines which describe version control repository and project management related objects and properties, and specify how to represent them as JSON-LD objects (and linked data in general) using the ForgeFed vocabulary and related vocabularies and ontologies. Using these modeling rules consistently across implementations and instances allows to have a common language spoken across networks of software forges, project management apps and more.

The ForgeFed vocabulary specification defines a dedicated vocabulary of forge-related terms, and the modeling specification uses these terms, along with terms that already exist in ActivityPub or elsewhere and can be reused for forge federation.

The ForgeFed behavior specification provides instructions for using Activities, and which Activities and properties to use, to represent forge events, and describes the side-effects these Activities should have. The objects used as inputs and outputs of behavior descriptions there are defined here in the modeling specification.

3 Commit

To represent a named set of changes committed into a repository’s history, use the ForgeFed Commit type. Such a committed change set is called e.g. a commit in Git, and a patch in Darcs.

Properties:

type: “Commit”
context: The Repository that this commit belongs to
attributedTo: The commit author; if their actor URI is unknown, it MAY be their email address as a mailto URI
created: A value of type xsd:dateTime (i.e. an ISO 8601 datetime value) specifying the time at which the commit was written by its author
committedBy: The entity that committed the commit’s changes into their local copy of the repo, before the commit was pushed; if their actor URI is unknown, it MAY be their email address as a mailto URI
committed: The time the commit was committed by its committer
hash: The hash identifying the commit, e.g. the commit SHA1 hash in Git; the patch info SHA1 hash in Darcs
summary: The commit’s one-line title as HTML-escaped plain text; if the commit title and description are a single commit message string, then the title is the 1st line of the commit message
description: A JSON object with a mediaType field and a content field, where mediaType SHOULD be “text/plain” and content is the commit’s possibly-multi-line description; if the commit title and description are a single commit message string, then the description is everything after the 1st line of the commit message (possibly with leading whitespace stripped)

Example:

{
          "@context": [
              "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
              "https://forgefed.org/ns"
          ],
          "id": "https://example.dev/alice/myrepo/commits/109ec9a09c7df7fec775d2ba0b9d466e5643ec8c",
          "type": "Commit",
          "context": "https://example.dev/alice/myrepo",
          "attributedTo": "https://example.dev/bob",
          "created": "2019-07-11T12:34:56Z",
          "committedBy": "https://example.dev/alice",
          "committed": "2019-07-26T23:45:01Z",
          "hash": "109ec9a09c7df7fec775d2ba0b9d466e5643ec8c",
          "summary": "Add an installation script, fixes issue #89",
          "description": {
              "mediaType": "text/plain",
              "content": "It's about time people can install it on their computers!"
          }
      }

4 Branch

To represent a repository branch, use the ForgeFed Branch type. It can be a real built-in version control system branch (such as a Git branch) or a copy of the repo used as a branch (e.g. in Darcs, which doesn’t implement branches, and the way to have branches is to keep multiple versions of the repo).

Properties:

type: “Branch”
context: The Repository that this branch belongs to
name: The user given name of the branch, e.g. “master”
ref: The unique identifier of the branch within the repo, e.g. “refs/heads/master”
team: If the branch has its own access/authority/visibility settings, this can be a Collection of the actors who have push/edit access to the branch

Example:

{
          "@context": [
              "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
              "https://forgefed.org/ns"
          ],
          "id": "https://example.dev/luke/myrepo/branches/master",
          "type": "Branch",
          "context": "https://example.dev/luke/myrepo",
          "name": "master",
          "ref": "refs/heads/master"
      }

5 Repository

To represent a version control repository, use the ForgeFed Repository type.

Properties:

type: “Repository”
name: The user given name of the repository, e.g. “My cool repo”
cloneUri: The endpoint from which the content of the repository can be obtained via the native protocol (Git, Hg, etc.)
attributedTo: The actor(s) in charge of the repository, e.g. a person or an organization; if their actor URI is unknown, it MAY be their email address as a mailto URI
published: The time the repository was created on the server
summary: A one-line user provided description of the repository, as HTML, e.g. “<p>A command-line tool that does cool things</p>”
team: Collection of actors who have management/push access to the repository, or the subset of them who is available and wants to be contacted/notified/responsible on repo access related activities/requests
forks: OrderedCollection of repositories that are forks of this repository
ticketsTrackedBy: The ticket tracker that tracks tickets for this repository, this can be the repository itself if it manages its own tickets
sendPatchesTo: The actor that tracks patches for this repository, this can be the repository itself if it manages its own patches and merge requests. For example it may be some external tracker or service, or the user or team to whom the repository belongs.
context: The Project(s) to which this repository belongs

Example:

{
          "@context": [
              "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",

9 Push

To represent an event of Commits being pushed to a Repository, use a ForgeFed Push activity.

Properties:

type: “Push”
actor: The entity (person, bot, etc.) that pushed the commits
context: The Repository to which the push was made
target: The specific repo history tip onto which the commits were added, this is either a Branch (for VCSs that have branches) or a Repository (for VCSs that don’t have branches, only a single history line). If it’s a branch, it MUST be a branch belonging to the repository specified by context. And if it’s a repository, it MUST be identical to the one specified by context.
hashBefore: Repo/branch/tip hash before adding the new commits
hashAfter: Repo/branch/tip hash after adding the new commits
object: An OrderedCollection of the Commits being pushed, in reverse chronological order. The items (or orderedItems) property of the collection MUST contain either the whole list of commits being pushed, or a prefix i.e. continuous subset from the beginning of the list (therefore the latest commits). earlyItems MAY be used for listing a suffix i.e. continuous subset from the end (therefore the earliest commits).

12 Access Control

12.1 Giving Access

12.1.1 Invite

To offer some actor access to a shared resource (such as a repository or a ticket tracker), use an ActivityPub Invite activity.

Properties:

type: “Invite”
actor: The entity (person, bot, etc.) that is offering access
instrument: The role or permission specifying which operations on the resource are being allowed
target: The resource, access to which is being given (for example, a repository)
object: The actor who is being gives access to the resource
capability: A previously published Grant, giving the actor permission to invite more actors to access the resource

Example:

{
          "@context": [
              "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
              "https://forgefed.org/ns"
          ],
          "id": "https://dev.example/aviva/outbox/B47d3",
          "type": "Invite",
          "actor": "https://dev.example/aviva",
          "to": [
              "https://dev.example/aviva/followers",
              "https://coding.community/repos/game-of-life",
              "https://coding.community/repos/game-of-life/followers",
              "https://software.site/bob",
              "https://software.site/bob/followers"
          ],
          "instrument": "https://roles.example/maintainer",
          "target": "https://coding.community/repos/game-of-life",
          "object": "https://software.site/bob",
          "capability": "https://coding.community/repos/game-of-life/outbox/2c53A"
      }

12.1.2 Join

To request access to a shared resource, use an ActivityPub Join activity.

Properties:

type: “Join”
actor: The entity (person, bot, etc.) that is requesting access
instrument: The role or permission specifying which operations on the resource are being requested
object: The resource, access to which is being given (for example, a repository)
capability: (optional) A previously published Grant, giving the actor permission to gain access to the resource without the approval of another actor. If capability isn’t provided, the resource won’t grant access before someone with adequate access approves the Join request.

Example:

{
          "@context": [
              "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
              "https://forgefed.org/ns"
          ],
          "id": "https://software.site/bob/outbox/c97E3",
          "type": "Join",
          "actor": "https://software.site/bob",
          "to": [
              "https://coding.community/repos/game-of-life",
              "https://coding.community/repos/game-of-life/followers",
              "https://software.site/bob/followers"
          ],
          "instrument": "https://roles.example/maintainer",
          "object": "https://coding.community/repos/game-of-life",
          "capability": "https://coding.community/repos/game-of-life/outbox/d38Fa"
      }

12.1.3 Grant

To give some actor access to a shared resource, use a ForgeFed Grant activity.

Properties:

type: “Grant”
actor: The entity (person, bot, etc.) that is giving access
object: The role or permission specifying which operations on the resource are being allowed
context: The resource, access to which is being given (for example, a repository)
target: The actor who is being gives access to the resource
fulfills: The activity that triggered the sending of the Grant, such as a related Invite (another example: if Alice Creates a new repository, the repository may automatically send back a Grant giving Alice admin access, and this Grant’s fulfills refers to the Create that Alice sent)
result: A URI that can be used later for verifying that the given access is still approved, thus allowing the actor granting the access to revoke it

Example:

{
          "@context": [
              "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
              "https://forgefed.org/ns"
          ],
          "id": "https://coding.community/repos/game-of-life/outbox/9fA8c",
          "type": "Grant",
          "actor": "https://coding.community/repos/game-of-life",
          "to": [
              "https://dev.example/aviva",
              "https://dev.example/aviva/followers",
              "https://coding.community/repos/game-of-life/followers",
              "https://software.site/bob",
              "https://software.site/bob/followers"
          ],
          "object": "https://roles.example/maintainer",
          "context": "https://coding.community/repos/game-of-life",
          "target": "https://software.site/bob",
          "fulfills": "https://dev.example/aviva/outbox/B47d3"
      }

12.2 Canceling Access

12.2.1 Remove

To disable an actor’s membership in a shared resource, invalidating their access to it, use an ActivityPub Remove activity.

Properties:

type: “Remove”
actor: The actor (person, bot, etc.) that is disabling access disabled
object: The actor whose access to the resource is being taken away
origin: The resource, access to which is being taken away (for example, a repository)
capability: A previously published Grant, giving the actor permission to disable the object actor’s access to the resource

Example:

{
          "@context": [
              "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
              "https://forgefed.org/ns"
          ],
          "id": "https://dev.example/aviva/outbox/F941b",
          "type": "Remove",
          "actor": "https://dev.example/aviva",
          "to": [
              "https://dev.example/aviva/followers",
              "https://coding.community/repos/game-of-life",
              "https://coding.community/repos/game-of-life/followers",
              "https://software.site/bob",
              "https://software.site/bob/followers"
          ],
          "origin": "https://coding.community/repos/game-of-life",
          "object": "https://software.site/bob",
          "capability": "https://coding.community/repos/game-of-life/outbox/2c53A"
      }

12.2.2 Leave

To withdraw your consent for membership in a shared resource, invalidating your access to it, use an ActivityPub Leave activity.

Properties:

type: “Leave”
actor: The actor (person, bot, etc.) that is requesting to disable their own access
object: The resource, access to which is being disabled (for example, a repository)

Example:

{
          "@context": [
              "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
              "https://forgefed.org/ns"
          ],
          "id": "https://software.site/bob/outbox/d08F4",
          "type": "Leave",
          "actor": "https://software.site/bob",
          "to": [
              "https://coding.community/repos/game-of-life",
              "https://coding.community/repos/game-of-life/followers",
              "https://software.site/bob/followers"
          ],
          "object": "https://coding.community/repos/game-of-life"
      }

12.2.3 Revoke

Another activity that can be used for disabling access is Revoke. While Remove and Leave are meant for undoing the effects of Invite and Join, Revoke is provided as an opposite of Grant. See the Behavior specification for more information about the usage of these different activity types in revocation of access to shared resources.

Properties:

type: “Revoke”
actor: The actor (person, bot, etc.) that is revoking access
instrument: The role or permission that the origin actor had with respect to accessing the resource, and which is now being taken away
context: The resource, access to which is being revoked
origin: The actor whose access to the resource is being revoked
fulfills: An activity that triggered the sending of the Grant, such as a related Remove or Leave
object: specific Grant activities being undone, i.e. the access that they granted is now disabled and it cannot be used anymore as the capability of activities

Example:

{
          "@context": [
              "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams",
              "https://forgefed.org/ns"
          ],
          "id": "https://coding.community/repos/game-of-life/outbox/1C0e2",
          "type": "Revoke",
          "actor": "https://coding.community/repos/game-of-life",
          "to": [
              "https://coding.community/repos/game-of-life/followers",
              "https://software.site/bob",
              "https://software.site/bob/followers"
          ],
          "instrument": "https://roles.example/maintainer",
          "context": "https://coding.community/repos/game-of-life",
          "origin": "https://software.site/bob",
          "object": "https://coding.community/repos/game-of-life/outbox/9fA8c"
      }

12.2.4 Undo a Grant

The Behavior spec describes flows in which the Revoke activity is used by resources (more accurately, by the actors managing them) to announce that they’re disabling Grants that they previously sent. To allow for a clear distinction, another activity is provided here, for other actors to request the revocation of specific Grants: The ActivityPub Undo activity.

It’s likely that Grants would exist behind-the-scenes in applications, and human actors would then use activities such as Remove and Leave for disabling access. But the ability to disable specific Grants may be required for ensuring and maintaining system security, therefore Undo is provided here as well.

Properties:

type: “Undo”
actor: The actor (person, bot, etc.) that is revoking access
object: specific Grant activities being undone, i.e. the access that they granted is now disabled and it cannot be used anymore as the capability of activities
capability: A previously published Grant, giving the actor permission to disable the object actor’s access to the resource
