`window.nostr` capability for web browsers
|
|
------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
`draft` `optional`
|
|
|
|
The `window.nostr` object may be made available by web browsers or extensions and websites or web-apps may make use of it after checking its availability.
|
|
|
|
That object must define the following methods:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
async window.nostr.getPublicKey(): string // returns a public key as hex
|
|
async window.nostr.signEvent(event: { created_at: number, kind: number, tags: string[][], content: string }): Event // takes an event object, adds `id`, `pubkey` and `sig` and returns it
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Aside from these two basic above, the following functions can also be implemented optionally:
|
|
```
|
|
async window.nostr.getRelays(): { [url: string]: {read: boolean, write: boolean} } // returns a basic map of relay urls to relay policies
|
|
async window.nostr.nip04.encrypt(pubkey, plaintext): string // returns ciphertext and iv as specified in nip-04 (deprecated)
|
|
async window.nostr.nip04.decrypt(pubkey, ciphertext): string // takes ciphertext and iv as specified in nip-04 (deprecated)
|
|
async window.nostr.nip44.encrypt(pubkey, plaintext): string // returns ciphertext as specified in nip-44
|
|
async window.nostr.nip44.decrypt(pubkey, ciphertext): string // takes ciphertext as specified in nip-44
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Recommendation to Extension Authors
|
|
To make sure that the `window.nostr` is available to nostr clients on page load, the authors who create Chromium and Firefox extensions should load their scripts by specifying `"run_at": "document_end"` in the extension's manifest.
|
|
|
