Record

record · key tid

Properties

createdAt

requiredstring · datetime

Timestamp declared by the sending client. It is not verified, so readers that care about ordering should prefer the record key.

facets

array

Rich text over byte ranges of 'text', in Bluesky's facet shape. turtle meat writes and reads only mentions (app.bsky.richtext.facet#mention), each pointing at the DID the handle in the text meant when the line was sent. There is no threading: a mention points at an account, not at a message. Byte offsets count the whole of 'text', colour and effect codes included.

Reference

room

requiredstring · uri

The room the message was sent to. 'https://turtleme.at/chat/global' is the global room. Because this is a link, a backlink index can list a room's messages without a dedicated AppView. A message written into a clan, an at.turtleme.chat.clan permissioned space, carries that space's at:// URI here instead; it lives in the author's permissioned repository for the space rather than their public one.

text

requiredstring

The message body. It may carry Old School RuneScape style chat codes in the form 'colour:effect:message', for example 'red:wave:hello there'. A client that does not recognise the codes should display the string verbatim rather than stripping it.

    record

    A message in a channel or DM space. The record lives in the *author's* repo within the space, so a message has no single owning collection to sort by — it is identified by (authorDid, tid). One collection serves channels and DMs alike (ADR 0016), which is what lets one pipeline carry both.
