This document discribes the server sync protocol. | ||||
# DRAFT PROTOCOL DESCRIPTION # | ||||
Version: | ||||
* Protocol version | ||||
* Model version | ||||
Node data: | ||||
* Public key | ||||
Object data: | ||||
* Post | ||||
* Post list (for sync) | ||||
The node requests other node's changes list since some time (since epoch if | ||||
this is the start). The other node sends a list of post ids or posts in the | ||||
XML or JSON format. | ||||
Protocol version is the version of the sync api. Model version is the version | ||||
of data models. If at least one of them is different, the sync cannot be | ||||
performed. | ||||
The node signs the data with its key. The receiving node saves the key at the | ||||
first sync and checks it every time. If the key has changed, the info won't be | ||||
saved from the node (or the node id must be changed). | ||||
|
r759 | |||
Each node holds a list of networks it wants to get info from. | ||||
Each post has an ID in the unique format: node-id/post-id | ||||
