Delegate Update

In certain contexts, you may want to allow another account to update your posts or post for you. This can be done by creating a Security Key.

Usage

Create a Post

import { ItemType } from 'aleph-sdk-ts/dist/messages/message';
import { Publish as publishPost } from 'aleph-sdk-ts/dist/messages/post';

(async () => {
  await publishPost({
    account: account1,
    postType: 'mytype',
    content: {'body': 'first content'}, //'tags': ['Test'] can be add for filtering
    channel: 'TEST'
  })
})();

The message result is here

"content": "body": "first content",

Create a Security Key

import { ItemType } from 'aleph-sdk-ts/dist/messages/message';
import { Publish as publishAggregate } from 'aleph-sdk-ts/dist/messages/aggregate';

(async () => {
    await publishAggregate({
		account: account1.account,
		key: 'security',
		content: {'authorizations': [
			{
				'address': account2.account.address,
				'types': ['POST'],
				'post_types': ['amend', 'mytype'],
				'chains': ['ETH'],
				'channels': ['TEST']
			}
		]},
		channel: 'security'
	})
})();
