Nostr-LD

Nostr-LD is a powerful and extensible library for transforming Nostr events and profiles into JSON-LD format. By leveraging JSON-LD, a W3C standard, Nostr-LD allows Nostr data to be interpreted and used by a wide range of tools and applications, enhancing interoperability and integration across the web.

Features

• Event-LD: Transforms Nostr events into JSON-LD format.
• Profile-LD: Transforms Nostr profiles into JSON-LD format.
• Easy extensibility to support additional Nostr types in the future.
• Promotes decentralization and domain independence.

Installation

npm install nostr-ld

Usage

Event-LD

import { eventld } from 'nostr-ld';

const event = '{...}'; // Your Nostr event here.
const jsonLD = eventld(event);

console.log(JSON.stringify(jsonLD, null, 2));

Profile-LD

import { profileld } from 'nostr-ld';

const user = '...'; // Your user pubkey here.
const mergedData = '{...}'; // Merged user data.
const jsonLD = profileld(user, mergedData);

console.log(JSON.stringify(jsonLD, null, 2));

Why Nostr-LD?

The adoption of JSON-LD for Nostr events and profiles brings several benefits:

• Interoperability: JSON-LD is a W3C standard widely adopted, which enables data from Nostr to be easily consumed by a broad range of tools and applications.
• Decentralization: By storing data in a decentralized manner, in the /.well-known/nostr/ directory, Nostr-LD helps to maintain the decentralized nature of Nostr and doesn't put pressure on individual relays.
• Semantic Web: JSON-LD is a key technology in the Semantic Web, enabling Nostr data to be part of the larger web of data.
