When a session expires close any event streams that have been opened
with that session. This prevents an attacker with a leaked session
cookie from opening a stream and receiving updates indefinitely without
being detected.
By sending the session the event stream is opened with when the stream
is established this closure on session expiry also serves as a way for
a user agent to be notified whenever its own access level changes.
I firmly believe in free software.
The application I'm making here have capabilities that I've not seen in
any system. It presents itself as an opportunity to collaborate on a
tool that serves the people rather than corporations. Whose incentives
are to help people rather, not make the most money. And whose terms
ensure that these freedoms and incentives cannot be taken back or
subverted.
I license this software under the AGPL.
Rename accounts to users to be consistent with the new naming scheme
where account only referes to the logged in user of the session and
implement live updates of users via a user store which listens for
updates from the event stream.
Rename and refactor the types passed over the API to be based on an
entity that's either living or a tombstone. A living entity has a
deleted property that's either undefined or false, while a tombstone
has a deleted property set to true. All entities have a numeric id
and an updatedAt timestamp.
To sync entities, an array of replacements are passed around. Living
entities are replaced with tombstones when they're deleted. And
tombstones are replaced with living entities when restored.
