   I'm working on adding a CLI toolchain to #Fedify to help with debugging. The first feature I implemented is the ActivityPub object lookup.

   Here's a demo.

   #fedidev #ActivityPub

     @mariusor It depends on a public local tunnel service under the hood, haha. Here's my module for that:

     @hongminhee I like the part of "spinning up a temporary ActivityPub server", but how does that work? The key needs to be reachable from the internet, so DNS and such must be already set up.

     @mariusor First of all, the library itself does not have this feature — only the CLI toolchain has it.

     And these services fortunately do not require signing up! So it does not share any account of them.

     @hongminhee I see, but is that safe to disseminate as part of a library? Meaning that multiple developers will be making use of those services through - what I assume to be - your account.

     If you already have Deno installed on your system, you can try the fedify command now:

     deno install -A -n fedify jsr:@fedify/cli@0.8.0-dev.150+8fb0fc25

     I've done some basic documentation on the fedify command:

     Fixed a bug that the option -a/--authorized-fetch did not work on Windows.

     The second feature of the Fedify CLI that I'm working on is ephemeral inboxes.

     @arjen A ephemeral inbox is a term I coined that refers to exposing an inbox that only lives a short time to a randomly generated public DNS. You can use it when debugging an ActivityPub app you're building to make sure that the activities you send out are received properly.

     @hongminhee makes me curious, what is an ephemeral inbox? Is it different from a normal inbox?

     @hongminhee thanks, I understand now! You do not always want to use a "real" account for debugging purposes. Really like your project btw, very useful.

     The `fedify inbox` command, which will be shipped in the next #Fedify release, is a tool that creates an ephemeral #ActivityPub server so that you can debug and test the activities you send.

     Here's a demo of it.

     I'm packaging the #Fedify CLI into a single executable using `deno compile`.

     @hongminhee would I be able to use it exclusively local?
     Example: making an activitypub server, specifically want to check if it works without using outside internet. Would it just be able to use localhost <-> localhost or perhaps over lan?
