Get Feed

Get Feed of a Character

For example, we want to get the feed of character 42:

const { list } = indexer.feed.getManyByCharacter(42)

You can filter the feed by type:

import { FeedType } from 'crossbell'
 
const { list } = indexer.feed.getManyByCharacter(42, {
  type: [FeedType.CREATE_CHARACTER, FeedType.UPDATE_CHARACTER_HANDLE],
})

Note that if you want to get the feed of posting notes, you have to specify all the POST_NOTE* types:

import { FeedType } from 'crossbell'
 
const { list } = indexer.feed.getManyByCharacter(42, {
  type: [
    FeedType.POST_NOTE,
    FeedType.POST_NOTE_FOR_NOTE,
    FeedType.POST_NOTE_FOR_ANY_URI,
    FeedType.POST_NOTE_FOR_ADDRESS,
    FeedType.POST_NOTE_FOR_LINKLIST,
    FeedType.POST_NOTE_FOR_CHARACTER,
    FeedType.POST_NOTE_FOR_ERC721,
  ],
})

Timeline: Get Feed of a Character's Following

In real-world social media, you can follow other users. In Crossbell, you can follow other characters with link.linkCharacter (opens in a new tab).

If a character 42 follows a group of characters, we can get the feed of the characters 42 follows:

const { list } = indexer.feed.getManyByCharacterFollowing(42)

This is commonly called the "home feed" or "timeline" in social media.
