See Docs for more information about this module.

How to use this module

install it as a dependency to you application

npm i @solid-data-modules/bookmarks-vanilla

import the module

import { Bookmark } from "@solid-data-modules/bookmarks-vanilla"

use it to work with bookmarks

const result: IBookmark[] = await Bookmark.getAll(session.fetch, session.info.webId, "<defaultRegisteryUrl>");

the getAll method will return an array of IBookmark, in case there are no bookmarks it will return an empty array.

const result: IBookmark | undefined  = await Bookmark.get("url", session.fetch);

the get method will return an IBookmark, in case there is no bookmark it will return undefined.

const result: boolean  = await Bookmark.delete("url", session.fetch);

the delete method will return a boolean indicating if the bookmark was deleted.

const result: boolean  = await Bookmark.create(payload: ICreateBookmark, session.fetch, session.info.webId, "<defaultRegisteryUrl>");

the create method will return a boolean indicating if the bookmark was created.

const result: IBookmark | undefined = await Bookmark.update("url", payload: IUpdateBookmark, session.fetch);

the update method will return an IBookmark, in case there is no bookmark it will return undefined.

• url indicates the primary key of the bookmark, (IRI in the RDF)
• defaultRegisteryUrl indicates the default registry url in case you want to specify, and it's optional, and obviously it has to be a valid URL, the default value is /bookmarks/index.ttl
• payload is an object containing the fields of the bookmark
• you need to pass the authenticated fetch and a webId to the methods, these values is obtained from the auth.ts in the demo app.
• session object can be obtained from:
  • useSession hook inside React Components, after handleIncomingRedirect hook is called.
  • getDefaultSession function inside vanilla js, after handleIncomingRedirect hook is called.

npm run dev

Explanation of the demo app

The login is handled by src/utils/auth.ts.

Once its completed the auth proccess it will redirect to the redirect url, and from there it will use Bookmark static methods to CRUD the bookmarks in Bookmarks component

methods

the Bookmark.getAll takes an authenticated fetch to use for fetching the data as well as a webId of the logedin user. also it takes the defaultRegisteryUrl in case you want to store the bookmarks in specific directory.

the Bookmark.get and Bookmark.delete methods take the url of the bookmark as the primary key and an authenticated fetch.

the Bookmark.create takes an object with fields: label, topic and link, creator, created and updated as the payload with an authenticated fetch and a webId. also it takes the defaultRegisteryUrl in case you want to store the bookmarks in specific directory.

the Bookmark.update takes the url of the bookmark as primary key, then as a payload, it takes an object with fields: label, topic and link, creator, created and updated with an authenticated fetch.

the Bookmark.delete takes the url of the bookmark as primary key, with an authenticated fetch.

Schema: label: any string value should be fine (required) link: link should be a valid URL e.g. starts with http or https (required) topic: topic can be both a string or a link to a topic e.g. "tipoc title" | "http://example.com/topic" (optional) creator: a URL to the creator e.g. WebID (optional) created: DateTime string e.g. "2023-10-21T14:16:16Z" (optional) updated: DateTime string e.g. "2023-10-21T14:16:16Z" (optional)

    "label": "label",
    "topic": "http://example.com/topic", // it also works with strings "topic title"
    "link": "http://example.com",
    "creator": "https://michielbdejong.solidcommunity.net/profile/card#me",

typeIndex Support

The Bookmak.getRegisteryUrls is the entrypoint for the data module and typeIndex. it checkes if typeIndex has a solid:instance or solid:instanceContainer registerd and returns the url of them as an array of strings. also it takes the defaultRegisteryUrl in case you want to store the bookmarks in specific directory.
