NIP-94 - File Header
NIP-94
======
`draft` `optional` `author:frbitten`
The purpose of this NIP is to allow an organization and classification of shared files. So that relays can filter and organize in any way that is of interest.
Also the goal is to create a base on the protocol for this bountsr "Filesharing App" (https://bountsr.org/p2p-filesharing/) to be implemented.

The purpose of this NIP is to allow an organization and classification of shared files. So that relays can filter and organize in any way that is of interest. With that, multiple types of filesharing clients can be created. NIP-94 support is not expected to be implemented by "social" clients that deal with kind:1 notes or by longform clients that deal with kind:30023 articles.
## Event format
Nostr event
------------------
This NIP specifies the use of the `1063` event type, having in `content` a description of the file content, and a list of tags described below:
* `url` the url to download the file
* `m` a string indicating the data type of the file. The MIME types format must be used (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Basics_of_HTTP/MIME_types/Common_types)
* `"aes-256-gcm"` (optional) key and nonce for AES-GCM encryption with tagSize always 128bits

Client Behavior
---------------
The client can use this event as they see fit. Either showing events in the same feed as kind 1 events or creating a specific feed for file listings.
## Suggested use cases
It allows the app to create image galleries (memes, animations) that can be reused countless times in different notes. As it exists in whatsapp, telegram, etc.
Example: <https://ibb.co/Fnj5TMg>
To do this, just select the image from the gallery (events NIP-94) and include the URL of the selected image
Suggested Use Cases

* A Pinterest-like relay and app where people can share their portfolio and inspire others.
