Usage

Basic usage:

let tribe = new Tribe("32149:leader-pubkey:tribeid"", {relays}) // or new Tribe("naddr1...")
await tribe.sync()  // Fetch members
await tribe.sync_profiles() // Fetch member profiles (name, avatar, nip05)
tribe.subscribe() // Subscribe for changes in tribe membership

tribe.member(pubkey) // returns true if pubkey is a member
tribe.entry(pubkey)  // returns all known info on member (name, nip05, avatar, parent)

some_events = ... // Fetch nostr events from a relay

let judgements = await tribe.judgeEvents(some_events)  // Decide which events are approved by the tribe
// Returns {[event_id]: [verdict, object, stamp]}
// verdict is either 'curate', 'neutral' or 'ban'
// object is either 'pubkey' or 'event'
// if object is 'event', the corresponding kind:78 stamp is returned as the 3rd item in the list

await tribe.stamp_event(some_event)  // Curate an event (stamp it) and upload the stamp to tribe relays.
await tribe.stamp_pubkey(some_event.pubkey)  // Add a new member to the tribe, store stamp on tribe relays.

Roadmap

• Ban should have effect only on parent's sub-tree
• Maintain parents[] instead of a single parent for each member
• Pass log_fn in constructor for logging. If not passed, do not log.
• Add a way to maintain permissions for members. These perms can be queried by clients, or have effect on core mechanics of tribes. E.g. moderator perm.
• Invitations (possibly through an online bot that keeps invite tree private)
