| 6 | +> ObjectStack Protocol & Specification - The Constitution of the ObjectStack Ecosystem |
| 7 | +
|
| 8 | +## 📜 Overview |
| 9 | + |
| 10 | +This package defines the **core interfaces, schemas, and conventions** for the ObjectStack ecosystem. It serves as the "Constitution" - the shared language that ObjectOS, ObjectStudio, ObjectCloud, and all third-party plugins use to communicate. |
| 11 | + |
| 12 | +**Guiding Principle:** *"Strict Types, No Logic"* |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +This package contains: |
| 15 | +- ✅ TypeScript Interfaces (Shared types) |
| 16 | +- ✅ Zod Schemas (Validation rules with type inference) |
| 17 | +- ✅ Constants (Convention configurations) |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +This package does NOT contain: |
| 20 | +- ❌ Database connections |
| 21 | +- ❌ UI components |
| 22 | +- ❌ Runtime business logic |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +## 🚀 Installation |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | +```bash |
| 27 | +npm install @objectstack/spec |
| 28 | +``` |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +## 📦 What's Inside |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +### 1. Manifest Schema (`ManifestSchema`) |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | +Defines the structure of a package configuration file. All packages (apps, plugins, drivers, modules) must conform to this schema. |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | +```typescript |
| 37 | +import { ManifestSchema, type ObjectStackManifest } from '@objectstack/spec'; |
| 38 | + |
| 39 | +// Validate a manifest |
| 40 | +const manifest: ObjectStackManifest = { |
| 41 | + id: 'com.example.myapp', |
| 42 | + version: '1.0.0', |
| 43 | + type: 'plugin', |
| 44 | + name: 'My App', |
| 45 | + permissions: ['system.user.read'], |
| 46 | + menus: [ |
| 47 | + { label: 'Dashboard', path: '/dashboard', icon: 'home' } |
| 48 | + ] |
| 49 | +}; |
| 50 | + |
| 51 | +// Validate with Zod |
| 52 | +ManifestSchema.parse(manifest); |
| 53 | +``` |
| 54 | + |
| 55 | +### 2. Plugin Runtime Interface (`ObjectStackPlugin`) |
| 56 | + |
| 57 | +Defines the contract that every plugin must implement to be loaded by ObjectOS. |
| 58 | + |
| 59 | +```typescript |
| 60 | +import { ObjectStackPlugin, PluginContext } from '@objectstack/spec'; |
| 61 | + |
| 62 | +export default function createPlugin(): ObjectStackPlugin { |
| 63 | + return { |
| 64 | + async onInstall(ctx: PluginContext) { |
| 65 | + ctx.logger.info('Plugin installed'); |
| 66 | + }, |
| 67 | + |
| 68 | + async onEnable(ctx: PluginContext) { |
| 69 | + ctx.logger.info('Plugin enabled'); |
| 70 | + }, |
| 71 | + |
| 72 | + async onDisable(ctx: PluginContext) { |
| 73 | + ctx.logger.info('Plugin disabled'); |
| 74 | + } |
| 75 | + }; |
| 76 | +} |
| 77 | +``` |
| 78 | + |
| 79 | +### 3. Directory Conventions (`PKG_CONVENTIONS`) |
| 80 | + |
| 81 | +Defines the "Law of Location" - where things must be in ObjectStack packages. |
| 82 | + |
| 83 | +```typescript |
| 84 | +import { PKG_CONVENTIONS } from '@objectstack/spec'; |
| 85 | + |
| 86 | +console.log(PKG_CONVENTIONS.DIRS.SCHEMA); // 'src/schemas' |
| 87 | +console.log(PKG_CONVENTIONS.DIRS.TRIGGERS); // 'src/triggers' |
| 88 | +console.log(PKG_CONVENTIONS.FILES.MANIFEST); // 'objectstack.config.ts' |
| 89 | +``` |
