## 📦 Installation

Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:

$ bundle add nostr

If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:

$ gem install nostr

## ⚡️ Quickstart

Here is a quick example of how to use the gem. For more detailed documentation, please check the
[documentation website](https://nostr-ruby.com).

```ruby
# Require the gem
require 'nostr'

# Instantiate a client
client = Nostr::Client.new

# a) Use an existing keypair
keypair = Nostr::KeyPair.new(
private_key: Nostr::PrivateKey.new('add-your-hex-private-key-here'),
public_key: Nostr::PublicKey.new('add-your-hex-public-key-here'),
)

# b) Or build a keypair from a private key
keygen = Nostr::Keygen.new
keypair = keygen.get_key_pair_from_private_key(
Nostr::PrivateKey.new('add-your-hex-private-key-here')
)

# c) Or create a new keypair
keygen = Nostr::Keygen.new
keypair = keygen.generate_key_pair

# Create a user with the keypair
user = Nostr::User.new(keypair: keypair)

# Create a signed event
text_note_event = user.create_event(
kind: Nostr::EventKind::TEXT_NOTE,
content: 'Your feedback is appreciated, now pay $8'
)

# Connect asynchronously to a relay
relay = Nostr::Relay.new(url: 'wss://nostr.wine', name: 'Wine')
client.connect(relay)

# Listen asynchronously for the connect event
client.on :connect do |relay|
# Send the event to the Relay
client.publish(text_note_event)

# Create a filter to receive the first 20 text notes
# and encrypted direct messages from the relay that
# were created in the previous hour
filter = Nostr::Filter.new(
kinds: [
Nostr::EventKind::TEXT_NOTE,
Nostr::EventKind::ENCRYPTED_DIRECT_MESSAGE
],
since: Time.now.to_i - 3600, # 1 hour ago
until: Time.now.to_i,
limit: 20,
)

# Subscribe to events matching conditions of a filter
subscription = client.subscribe(filter: filter)

# Unsubscribe from events matching the filter above
client.unsubscribe(subscription.id)
end

# Listen for incoming messages and print them
client.on :message do |message|
puts message
end

# Listen for error messages
client.on :error do |error_message|
# Handle the error
end

# Listen for the close event
client.on :close do |code, reason|
# You may attempt to reconnect to the relay here
end

# This line keeps the background client from exiting immediately.
gets
```

## 📚 Documentation

I made a detailed documentation for this gem and it's usage. The code is also fully documented using YARD.

- [Guide documentation](https://nostr-ruby.com)
- [YARD documentation](https://rubydoc.info/gems/nostr)

## ✅ Implemented NIPs

- [x] [NIP-01 - Basic protocol flow description](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/blob/master/01.md)
- [x] [NIP-02 - Contact List and Petnames](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/blob/master/02.md)
- [x] [NIP-04 - Encrypted Direct Message](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/blob/master/04.md)
- [x] [NIP-19 - Bech32-encoded entities](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/blob/master/19.md)

## 🔨 Development

After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run `bundle exec rake install`.

You can also run `bin/console` for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To release a new version, update the version number in `version.rb`, and then run `bundle exec rake release`,
which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the `.gem` file
to [rubygems.org](https://rubygems.org).

The health and maintainability of the codebase is ensured through a set of
Rake tasks to test, lint and audit the gem for security vulnerabilities and documentation:

```
rake build # Build nostr.gem into the pkg directory
rake build:checksum # Generate SHA512 checksum if nostr.gem into the checksums directory
rake bundle:audit:check # Checks the Gemfile.lock for insecure dependencies
rake bundle:audit:update # Updates the bundler-audit vulnerability database
rake clean # Remove any temporary products
rake clobber # Remove any generated files
rake coverage # Run spec with coverage
rake install # Build and install nostr.gem into system gems
rake install:local # Build and install nostr.gem into system gems without network access
rake qa # Test, lint and perform security and documentation audits
rake release[remote] # Create a tag, build and push nostr.gem to rubygems.org
rake rubocop # Run RuboCop
rake rubocop:autocorrect # Autocorrect RuboCop offenses (only when it's safe)
rake rubocop:autocorrect_all # Autocorrect RuboCop offenses (safe and unsafe)
rake spec # Run RSpec code examples
rake verify_measurements # Verify that yardstick coverage is at least 100%
rake yard # Generate YARD Documentation
rake yard:junk # Check the junk in your YARD Documentation
rake yardstick_measure # Measure docs in lib/**/*.rb with yardstick
```

### Type checking

This gem leverages [RBS](https://github.com/ruby/rbs), a language to describe the structure of Ruby programs. It is
used to provide type checking and autocompletion in your editor. Run `bundle exec typeprof FILENAME` to generate
an RBS definition for the given Ruby file. And validate all definitions using [Steep](https://github.com/soutaro/steep)
with the command `bundle exec steep check`.
