Show and tell: starting a braidjs component for Solid !

[thhck]

Hello,

I'm braidifying the requests of the Community Solid Server at https://github.com/thhck/css-braid-component :D

For now this is just the implementation of the chat demo into CSS ( CSS = Community Solid Server ) and it doesn't really interact with CSS' data yet, but the braid middleware is working, so it is a good start !

It works with the chat demo client, just by changing the target url to the CSS url

I'm not sure yet how I'll make it interact with CSS' RDF data, I think it will be challenging, but I'm looking forward to hack on that.

Wow! Breakthrough! This is what I was hoping we could get working—a basic integration of Braid-HTTP into CSS!

I just looked through the code, and it's making sense. I see how braidify is being called in the CSS middleware/, and then how there's a new handler to actually handle the responses. I'm glad you know how all this fits together, and how to instrument the right .json files.

I'd love to demo this at the upcoming Braid Meeting 107 on Monday at 1pm Pacific / 8PM UTC. Would you be interested in joining?

And yes, this totally opens us up to getting some good Braided RDF going. Have you built apps with RDF before? I just have zero practical experience with RDF so it's hard for me to have good taste with using it — but I love learning from people who do and integrating that into a general sync model like we've done thus far!

Would you be interested in joining?

Sure, I'd be happy to join !

However, I'm not sure the demo make much sense for now, because the data server is still stored in the "const resources " object from the demo and not from the LDP ( Linked Data Plateform ) . But I can help on this part, as I'm starting to be familiar with CSS.
