atproto-client#

AT Protocol HTTP client with authentication support.

Overview#

HTTP client for AT Protocol services supporting DPoP, bearer tokens, and sessions with native XRPC protocol operations and repository management.

Features#

  • Multiple authentication methods: DPoP, Bearer tokens, and session-based authentication
  • XRPC protocol support: Native support for AT Protocol's XRPC communication protocol
  • Repository operations: Complete client for AT Protocol repository CRUD operations
  • Session management: Authentication session creation, refresh, and validation
  • URL utilities: Helper functions for AT Protocol URL construction and validation

CLI Tools#

The following command-line tools are available when built with the clap feature:

  • atproto-client-auth: Create and refresh authentication sessions using identifier and password
  • atproto-client-app-password: Make authenticated XRPC calls using app password Bearer tokens
  • atproto-client-dpop: Make authenticated XRPC calls using DPoP (Demonstration of Proof-of-Possession) tokens

Usage#

Basic HTTP Operations#

use atproto_client::client;
use reqwest::Client;

let http_client = Client::new();
let response = client::get_json(&http_client, "https://api.example.com/data").await?;

DPoP Authentication#

use atproto_client::client::{DPoPAuth, get_dpop_json};
use atproto_identity::key::identify_key;

let dpop_auth = DPoPAuth {
    dpop_private_key_data: identify_key("did:key:zQ3sh...")?,
    oauth_access_token: "your_access_token".to_string(),
};

let response = get_dpop_json(&http_client, &dpop_auth, "https://pds.example.com/xrpc/...").await?;

Repository Operations#

use atproto_client::com::atproto::repo::{create_record, CreateRecordRequest};

let create_request = CreateRecordRequest {
    repo: "did:plc:user123".to_string(),
    collection: "app.bsky.feed.post".to_string(),
    record: json!({"$type": "app.bsky.feed.post", "text": "Hello!"}),
    // ...
};

let response = create_record(&http_client, &dpop_auth, pds_url, create_request).await?;

Command Line Examples#

Create and Manage Sessions#

# Create an authentication session with username and password
cargo run --features clap --bin atproto-client-auth -- login alice.example.com my_password

# Use an existing app password for session creation
cargo run --features clap --bin atproto-client-auth -- session alice.example.com app_password_token

App Password Authentication#

# Make an XRPC call using app password Bearer token
cargo run --features clap --bin atproto-client-app-password -- \
  did:plc:user123 \
  your_access_token \
  com.atproto.repo.listRecords

DPoP Authentication#

# Make an authenticated XRPC call using DPoP tokens
cargo run --features clap --bin atproto-client-dpop -- \
  did:plc:user123 \
  did:key:zQ3sh... \
  your_access_token \
  com.atproto.repo.getRecord
