Building feeds
A feed is a rule that picks records from a space and an order to show them in. Admins write the rule; the feed generator keeps it up to date.
The feed list
Space › Feeds: each feed, its order, who published it, the default. New feed by key.
A space's Feeds tab with Latest marked default.
Starting points
Latest, Events, Posts with media, Links, Posts with a tag, Posts by members. Each fills the editor.
The rule
- Written in JSON Logic over a document per record:
collection,space,author.did,author.admin,record,labels,createdAt, and for postsisReply,hasMedia,tags,mediaKind; for bookmarkshostandtags. - A truthy result includes the record.
- Order: newest first, or by event start (upcoming only, soonest first).
{"and": [{"==": [{"var": "collection"}, "app.bsky.feed.post"]}, {"in": ["games", {"var": "tags"}]}]}The feed editor with a configuration and a dry run's results.
Dry run, then publish
Dry run shows what the rule would select now. Publish writes two records (the feed's name and its rule) in the space's management space. A rule that fails on records isn't published.
Making a feed the default
Community admins: Make default on the feed list rewrites the space record.
Removing a feed
Remove your records for this feed. If another admin also published under the key, theirs remains.
