MongoDB Labeler

A versatile data management and labeling tool that helps you organize, tag, and manage your MongoDB collections efficiently. Originally inspired by ATProtocol's labeling system, it can be used both for general MongoDB data labeling and ATProtocol content moderation.

Acknowledgments

This project is a fork of @skyware/labeler, which was originally designed for Bluesky/ATProto labeling. We've adapted and expanded it to work with MongoDB databases while maintaining compatibility with ATProtocol labeling workflows.

Features

• Efficient data labeling interface
• MongoDB integration
• Support for custom label schemas
• ATProtocol compatibility
• Content moderation support
• Batch labeling operations
• Export and import functionality
• TypeScript support

Installation

npm install @imigueldiaz/mongodb-labeler

Requirements

• Node.js 22 or higher
• MongoDB 6.0 or higher
• npm (Node Package Manager)

Usage

Basic Usage

import { LabelerServer } from "@imigueldiaz/mongodb-labeler";

// Initialize the labeler server
const labeler = new LabelerServer({
  did: "your-did",
  signingKey: "your-signing-key",
  mongoUri: "mongodb://localhost:27017",
  databaseName: "labeler", // optional, defaults to 'labeler'
  collectionName: "labels" // optional, defaults to 'labels'
});

// Create a label
const label = await labeler.createLabel({
  ver: 1,
  val: "label-value",
  uri: "at://did:example/repo/collection",
  cid: "bafyreib2rxk3rh6kzwq"
});

// Query labels
const labels = await labeler.queryLabels();

// Query specific label
const specificLabel = await labeler.queryLabel(1);

// Delete a label
const deletedLabel = await labeler.deleteLabel(1);

// Close the connection when done
await labeler.close();

MongoDB Integration

The labeler uses MongoDB for data persistence. Make sure you have MongoDB running and accessible. The connection URI should follow MongoDB's connection string format:

// Local MongoDB instance
const labeler = new LabelerServer({
  did: "your-did",
  signingKey: "your-signing-key",
  mongoUri: "mongodb://localhost:27017"
});

// MongoDB Atlas
const labeler = new LabelerServer({
  did: "your-did",
  signingKey: "your-signing-key",
  mongoUri: "mongodb+srv://username:password@cluster.mongodb.net"
});

Configuration

The labeler can be configured with the following options:

{
  /** The DID of the labeler account */
  did: string;

  /** The private signing key for the labeler */
  signingKey: string;

  /** MongoDB connection URI */
  mongoUri: string;

  /** The name of the MongoDB database to use (defaults to 'labeler') */
  databaseName?: string;

  /** The name of the MongoDB collection to use (defaults to 'labels') */
  collectionName?: string;
}

For basic MongoDB usage:

import { MongoDBLabeler } from "@imigueldiaz/mongodb-labeler";

const labeler = new MongoDBLabeler({
  mongoUri: "mongodb://localhost:27017", // or "mongodb+srv://..."
  signingKey: "your-signing-key",
  did: "did:example:123",
  databaseName: "my_database",
  collectionName: "my_labels",
});

ATProtocol Label Requirements

Labels in ATProtocol must follow specific requirements:

Label Structure

{
  ver: 1,                // Version (always 1)
  val: "label-value",    // Label value (required)
  uri: "at://...",       // Subject URI (required)
  cid?: "bafy...",      // Content version (optional)
  neg?: boolean,         // Negation flag (optional)
  src?: "did:...",      // Source DID (optional)
  cts: "timestamp",      // Creation timestamp
  exp?: "timestamp"      // Expiration (optional)
}

Label Value Guidelines

• Use lowercase kebab-case (e.g., label-name)
• ASCII letters only (a-z)
• No punctuation except internal hyphens
• Maximum 128 bytes length
• Prefix with ! for system-level labels

URI Requirements

• For labeling accounts: URI must start with did: (no CID allowed)
• For labeling content: URI must start with at:// (CID recommended)

Example Labels

// Labeling an account
const accountLabel = await labeler.createLabel({
  ver: 1,
  val: "account-status",
  uri: "did:plc:1234567890",
  src: "did:example:moderator"
});

// Labeling specific content
const contentLabel = await labeler.createLabel({
  ver: 1,
  val: "content-warning",
  uri: "at://did:example/repo/collection",
  cid: "bafyreib2rxk3rh6kzwq", // Specific version
  exp: "2024-12-31T23:59:59Z"  // Optional expiration
});
