AT Protocol primitive types and utilities 🦋

1. Guide 🌎

This library provides the essential primitive types and utilities for AT Protocol in Dart and Flutter apps. It consolidates functionality from the previously separate at_identifier, at_uri, and nsid packages into a single, unified package.

1.1. Getting Started âš¡

1.1.1. Install Library

With Dart:

 dart pub add at_primitives

Or With Flutter:

 flutter pub add at_primitives

1.1.2. Import

import 'package:at_primitives/at_primitives.dart';

1.1.3. Implementation

AT Identifiers:

import 'package:at_primitives/at_primitives.dart' as primitives;

void main() {
  // Handle validation
  primitives.isValidHandle('alice.test'); // returns true
  primitives.ensureValidHandle('alice.test'); // returns void

  primitives.isValidHandle('al!ce.test'); // returns false
  primitives.ensureValidHandle('al!ce.test'); // throws

  // DID validation
  primitives.ensureValidDid('did:method:val'); // returns void
  primitives.ensureValidDid(':did:method:val'); // throws
}

AT URIs:

import 'package:at_primitives/at_primitives.dart';

void main() {
  final uri = AtUri.parse('at://bob.com/com.example.post/1234');

  uri.protocol; // => 'at:'
  uri.origin; // => 'at://bob.com'
  uri.hostname; // => 'bob.com'
  uri.collection; // => 'com.example.post'
  uri.rkey; // => '1234'

  ensureValidAtUri('at://user.bsky.social'); // => returns void
  ensureValidAtUri('at//did:plc:asdf123'); // => throws
}

NSIDs:

import 'package:at_primitives/at_primitives.dart';

void main() {
  final id1 = NSID.parse('com.example.foo');
  id1.authority; // => 'example.com'
  id1.name; // => 'foo'
  id1.toString(); // => 'com.example.foo'

  final id2 = NSID.create('example.com', 'foo');
  id2.authority; // => 'example.com'
  id2.name; // => 'foo'
  id2.toString(); // => 'com.example.foo'

  final id3 = NSID.create('example.com', '*');
  id3.authority; // => 'example.com'
  id3.name; // => '*'
  id3.toString(); // => 'com.example.*'
}

1.2. Migration from Individual Packages

If you were previously using the individual packages (at_identifier, at_uri, nsid), migration is straightforward:

Remove old packages:

dart pub remove at_identifier at_uri nsid

Add at_primitives:

dart pub add at_primitives

Update imports:

// Old
import 'package:at_identifier/at_identifier.dart';
import 'package:at_uri/at_uri.dart';
import 'package:nsid/nsid.dart';

// New
import 'package:at_primitives/at_identifier.dart';
import 'package:at_primitives/at_uri.dart';
import 'package:at_primitives/nsid.dart';

The API remains exactly the same, so no code changes are required beyond updating the import statements.

This package is part of the atproto.dart ecosystem.
