# ActivityPub federation in Mitra
Mitra largely follows the [ActivityPub](https://www.w3.org/TR/activitypub/) server-to-server specification but it makes uses of some non-standard extensions, some of which are required for interacting with it.
The following activities are supported:
- Accept(Follow)
- Reject(Follow)
- Undo(Follow)
- Create(Note)
- Delete(Note)
- Like(Note)
- Undo(Like)
- Announce(Note)
- Undo(Announce)
- Update(Note)
- Follow(Person)
- Update(Person)
- Delete(Person)
- Add(Person)
- Remove(Person)
And these additional standards:
- [Http Signatures](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-cavage-http-signatures)
- [NodeInfo](https://nodeinfo.diaspora.software/)
- [WebFinger](https://webfinger.net/)
Activities are implemented in way that is compatible with Pleroma, Mastodon and other popular ActivityPub servers.
## Supported FEPs
- [FEP-f1d5](https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fep/src/branch/main/feps/fep-f1d5.md)
- [FEP-e232](https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fep/src/branch/main/feps/fep-e232.md)
## Profile extensions
### Cryptocurrency addresses
Cryptocurrency addresses are represented as `PropertyValue` attachments where `name` attribute is a currency symbol prefixed with `$`:
```json
{
"name": "$XMR",
"type": "PropertyValue",
"value": "8Ahza5RM4JQgtdqvpcF1U628NN5Q87eryXQad3Fy581YWTZU8o3EMbtScuioQZSkyNNEEE1Lkj2cSbG4VnVYCW5L1N4os5p"
}
```
### Identity proofs
Identity proofs are represented as attachments of `IdentityProof` type:
```json
{
"name": "<did>",
"type": "IdentityProof",
"signatureAlgorithm": "<proof-type>",
"signatureValue": "<proof>"
}
```
## Subscription events
Local actor profiles have `subscribers` property which points to the collection of actor's paid subscribers.
The `Add` activity is used to notify the subscriber about successful subscription payment. Upon receipt of this activity, the receiving server should add specified `object` to actors's `subscribers` collection (specified in `target` property):
```json
{
"@context": [
"https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams"
],
"actor": "https://example.com/users/alice",
"id": "https://example.com/activities/00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001",
"object": "https://example.com/users/bob",
"target": "https://example.com/users/alice/collections/subscribers",
"to": [
"https://example.com/users/bob"
],
"type": "Add"
}
```
The `Remove` activity is used to notify the subscriber about expired subscription. Upon receipt of this activity, the receiving server should remove specified `object` from actors's `subscribers` collection (specified in `target` property):
```json
{
"@context": [
"https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams"
],
"actor": "https://example.com/users/alice",
"id": "https://example.com/activities/00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000002",
"object": "https://example.com/users/bob",
"target": "https://example.com/users/alice/collections/subscribers",
"to": [
"https://example.com/users/bob"
],
"type": "Remove"
}
```
