# Ario Web App Architecture

> **⚠️ DEPRECATED DOCUMENT**  
> **Date**: September 6, 2025  
> **Status**: This document describes the legacy singleton-based architecture which has been replaced by a **modular service-based architecture** with dependency injection.
> 
> **Current Architecture**: See `CLAUDE.md` and `docs/modular-architecture-analysis.md` for up-to-date information.

## Overview

~~The Ario web app uses a **singleton-based architecture** to manage shared state and resources across components. This document explains how the core singletons work and how different components (chat, market, feed) plug into the system.~~

**Updated**: The Ario web app now uses a modular plugin architecture with dependency injection through the BaseService pattern and SERVICE_TOKENS.

## Core Singleton Architecture

### 1. Authentication Singleton (`useAuth`)

**Location**: `src/composables/useAuth.ts`

**Purpose**: Manages user authentication state using LNBits integration.

**Singleton Pattern**:
```typescript
export function useAuth() {
  // ... implementation
}

// Export singleton instance for global state
export const auth = useAuth()
```

**Usage**: Imported throughout the app for authentication state:
```typescript
import { auth } from '@/composables/useAuth'

// All components see the same authentication state
console.log(auth.isAuthenticated.value)
```

### 2. Relay Hub Singleton (`relayHub`)

**Location**: `src/lib/nostr/relayHub.ts`

**Purpose**: Centralized management of Nostr relay connections, providing a single WebSocket connection pool for the entire application.

**Singleton Pattern**:
```typescript
export class RelayHub extends EventEmitter {
  // ... implementation
}

// Export singleton instance
export const relayHub = new RelayHub()
```

**Key Features**:
- Single WebSocket connection pool
- Automatic reconnection and health checks
- Event broadcasting for connection state changes
- Mobile visibility handling for WebSocket management

### 3. Relay Hub Composable Singleton (`useRelayHub`)

**Location**: `src/composables/useRelayHub.ts`

**Purpose**: Vue-reactive wrapper around the core `relayHub` instance, providing reactive state and Vue-specific functionality.

**Singleton Pattern**:
```typescript
export function useRelayHub() {
  // Uses the same relayHub instance
  const initialize = async () => {
    await relayHub.initialize(relayUrls)
  }
  
  return { initialize, connect, disconnect, ... }
}

// Export singleton instance
export const relayHubComposable = useRelayHub()
```

**Relationship**: This composable wraps the core `relayHub` instance, making it Vue-reactive while maintaining the singleton connection pool.

### 4. Chat Singleton (`useNostrChat`)

**Location**: `src/composables/useNostrChat.ts`

**Purpose**: Manages Nostr chat functionality including message encryption/decryption, peer management, and real-time messaging.

**Singleton Pattern**:
```typescript
export function useNostrChat() {
  // ... implementation
}

// Export singleton instance for global state
export const nostrChat = useNostrChat()
```

**Relay Hub Integration**: Uses `useRelayHub()` to connect to relays and manage subscriptions.

### 5. Market Singleton (`useMarket`)

**Location**: `src/composables/useMarket.ts`

**Purpose**: Manages market functionality including stalls, products, and market data.

**Singleton Pattern**:
```typescript
export function useMarket() {
  // ... implementation
}

// Export singleton instance
export const market = useMarket()
```

**Relay Hub Integration**: Uses `useRelayHub()` to fetch market data from Nostr relays.

### 6. Nostr Store Singleton (`useNostrStore`)

**Location**: `src/stores/nostr.ts`

**Purpose**: Pinia store for Nostr-related state including push notifications and relay connection status.

**Singleton Pattern**:
```typescript
export const useNostrStore = defineStore('nostr', () => {
  // ... implementation
})
```

**Relay Hub Integration**: Imports the `relayHub` singleton directly for connection management.

## Component Integration Architecture

```

### 1. Chat Component Integration

**Component**: `src/components/nostr/ChatComponent.vue`

**Integration Path**:
```typescript
// 1. Component imports the chat singleton
import { nostrChat } from '@/composables/useNostrChat'

// 2. Chat singleton uses relay hub composable
import { useRelayHub } from './useRelayHub'

// 3. Relay hub composable uses core relay hub singleton
import { relayHub } from '../lib/nostr/relayHub'
```

**Data Flow**:
```
ChatComponent → nostrChat → useRelayHub → relayHub → Nostr Relays
     ↓              ↓           ↓           ↓
  UI Updates   Chat State   Vue State   WebSocket
```

**Key Benefits**:
- Single chat state across all components
- Shared relay connections
- Centralized message encryption/decryption
- Unified peer management

### 2. Feed Component Integration

**Component**: `src/components/nostr/NostrFeed.vue`

**Integration Path**:
```typescript
// 1. Component imports relay hub composable
import { useRelayHub } from '@/composables/useRelayHub'

// 2. Relay hub composable uses core relay hub singleton
import { relayHub } from '../lib/nostr/relayHub'
```

**Data Flow**:
```
NostrFeed → useRelayHub → relayHub → Nostr Relays
     ↓           ↓           ↓
  Feed UI   Vue State   WebSocket
```

**Key Benefits**:
- Real-time feed updates
- Shared relay connections
- Centralized admin filtering
- Efficient event subscription management

### 3. Market Component Integration

**Component**: `src/pages/Market.vue`

**Integration Path**:
```typescript
// 1. Component uses market composable
import { useMarket } from '@/composables/useMarket'

// 2. Market composable uses relay hub composable
import { useRelayHub } from './useRelayHub'

// 3. Relay hub composable uses core relay hub singleton
import { relayHub } from '../lib/nostr/relayHub'
```

**Data Flow**:
```
Market.vue → useMarket → useRelayHub → relayHub → Nostr Relays
     ↓          ↓           ↓           ↓
  Market UI  Market    Vue State   WebSocket
            State
```

**Key Benefits**:
- Centralized market data
- Shared relay connections
- Efficient product/stall fetching
- Real-time market updates

## Singleton Benefits in Practice

### 1. **Shared Connection State**
```typescript
// Component A
const { isConnected } = useRelayHub()
console.log(isConnected.value) // true

// Component B (different part of app)
const { isConnected } = useRelayHub()
console.log(isConnected.value) // true (same state!)
```

### 2. **Centralized Resource Management**
```typescript
// All components share the same WebSocket connections
relayHub.connectedRelayCount // Same value everywhere
relayHub.totalSubscriptionCount // Same value everywhere
```

### 3. **Event Broadcasting**
```typescript
// Component A listens to connection events
relayHub.on('connected', () => console.log('Connected!'))

// Component B triggers connection
await relayHub.connect() // Component A gets notified!
```

### 4. **Efficient Resource Usage**
- **Before**: Each component creates its own relay connections
- **After**: Single connection pool shared across all components
- **Result**: Reduced memory usage, better performance, consistent state

## Configuration and Environment Variables

### Required Environment Variables
```bash
# Nostr relay configuration
VITE_NOSTR_RELAYS=["wss://relay1.example.com", "wss://relay2.example.com"]

# Admin pubkeys for feed filtering
VITE_ADMIN_PUBKEYS=["npub1admin1...", "npub1admin2..."]

# LNBits API configuration
VITE_LNBITS_BASE_URL=https://your-lnbits-instance.com
VITE_API_KEY=your-api-key
```

### Configuration Structure
```typescript
// src/lib/config/index.ts
export const config: AppConfig = {
  nostr: {
    relays: parseJsonEnv(import.meta.env.VITE_NOSTR_RELAYS, []),
    adminPubkeys: parseJsonEnv(import.meta.env.VITE_ADMIN_PUBKEYS, [])
  },
  api: {
    baseUrl: import.meta.env.VITE_LNBITS_BASE_URL || '',
    key: import.meta.env.VITE_API_KEY || ''
  }
}
```

## Testing and Development

### Mocking Singletons for Testing
```typescript
// In test files, you can mock the singleton instances
import { auth } from '@/composables/useAuth'
import { nostrChat } from '@/composables/useNostrChat'

// Mock the singletons
vi.mock('@/composables/useAuth', () => ({
  auth: {
    isAuthenticated: ref(false),
    currentUser: ref(null)
  }
}))
```

### Development Benefits
- **Hot Reload**: Singleton state persists across component reloads
- **Debugging**: Single point of inspection for shared state
- **Performance**: No unnecessary re-initialization of expensive resources

## Best Practices

### 1. **Always Use the Singleton Instance**
```typescript
// ✅ Good: Use the exported singleton
import { auth } from '@/composables/useAuth'
import { nostrChat } from '@/composables/useNostrChat'

// ❌ Bad: Don't create new instances
const { currentUser } = useAuth() // This creates a new instance!
```

### 2. **Access State Through Composables**
```typescript
// ✅ Good: Use the composable wrapper for reactive state
const { isConnected, connectionStatus } = useRelayHub()

// ❌ Bad: Don't access relayHub directly in components
import { relayHub } from '@/lib/nostr/relayHub'
console.log(relayHub.isConnected) // Not reactive!
```

### 3. **Listen to Events for State Changes**
```typescript
// ✅ Good: Listen to relay hub events
relayHub.on('connected', () => {
  console.log('Relay connected!')
})

// ❌ Bad: Don't poll for state changes
setInterval(() => {
  console.log(relayHub.isConnected) // Inefficient!
}, 1000)
```

## Conclusion

The singleton architecture in Ario provides:

1. **Efficient Resource Management**: Single connection pools and shared state
2. **Consistent User Experience**: All components see the same data
3. **Simplified Development**: Clear patterns for state management
4. **Better Performance**: No duplicate connections or state
5. **Easier Testing**: Centralized mocking of shared resources

This architecture makes the app more maintainable, performant, and user-friendly while providing a solid foundation for future features.

## Shared Nostr Function Execution

### Event Building and Publishing Pattern

All components that need to create and publish Nostr events follow a consistent pattern through the relay hub singleton:

#### 1. Event Creation Utilities

**Direct Event Template Creation** (used in `useNostrChat`):
```typescript
import { nip04, finalizeEvent, type EventTemplate } from 'nostr-tools'

// Create event template
const eventTemplate: EventTemplate = {
  kind: 4, // Encrypted DM
  created_at: Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000),
  tags: [['p', peerPubkey]]
  content: encryptedContent
}

// Finalize and sign the event
const event = finalizeEvent(eventTemplate, hexToBytes(privateKey))
```

**Market Event Creation** (used in `useMarket`):
```typescript
// Market events use specific kinds and tags
const MARKET_EVENT_KINDS = {
  STALL: 30017,
  PRODUCT: 30018,
  MARKET: 30019
}

// Extract data from event tags
const stallId = event.tags.find((tag: any) => tag[0] === 'd')?.[1]
const productId = event.tags.find((tag: any) => tag[0] === 'd')?.[1]
```

#### 2. Centralized Publishing Through Relay Hub

**All components publish through the same singleton**:
```typescript
// In useNostrChat.ts
await relayHub.publishEvent(event)

// In useMarket.ts (if publishing)
await relayHub.publishEvent(event)

// In any other component
await relayHub.publishEvent(event)
```

**Relay Hub Publishing Logic**:
```typescript
async publishEvent(event: Event): Promise<{ success: number; total: number }> {
  if (!this._isConnected) {
    throw new Error('Not connected to any relays')
  }

  const relayUrls = Array.from(this.connectedRelays.keys())
  const results = await Promise.allSettled(
    relayUrls.map(relay => this.pool.publish([relay], event))
  )

  const successful = results.filter(result => result.status === 'fulfilled').length
  const total = results.length

  this.emit('eventPublished', { eventId: event.id, success: successful, total })
  return { success: successful, total }
}
```

#### 3. Event Querying and Subscription

**Consistent Query Interface**:
```typescript
// One-time event queries
const events = await relayHub.queryEvents(filters)

// Real-time subscriptions
const unsubscribe = relayHub.subscribe({
  id: 'subscription-id',
  filters: [{ kinds: [1], limit: 50 }],
  onEvent: (event) => {
    // Handle incoming event
  }
})
```

### Shared Dependencies

**nostr-tools Package**:
- `finalizeEvent` - Event signing and finalization
- `nip04` - Encrypted message handling
- `SimplePool` - Relay connection management
- `EventTemplate` - Event structure typing

**Common Event Patterns**:
- **Text Notes** (kind 1): Community posts and announcements
- **Encrypted DMs** (kind 4): Private chat messages
- **Market Events** (kinds 30017-30019): Stall, product, and market data
- **Reactions** (kind 7): Emoji reactions to posts

## Configuration Management

### Environment Variables and Configuration

**Centralized Config** (`src/lib/config/index.ts`):
```typescript
interface NostrConfig {
  relays: string[]
  adminPubkeys: string[]
}

interface MarketConfig {
  defaultNaddr: string
  supportedRelays: string[]
  lightningEnabled: boolean
  defaultCurrency: string
}

// Environment variables
VITE_NOSTR_RELAYS: JSON array of relay URLs
VITE_ADMIN_PUBKEYS: JSON array of admin public keys
VITE_MARKET_RELAYS: JSON array of market-specific relays
VITE_LIGHTNING_ENABLED: Boolean for Lightning integration
```

**Default Relay Configuration**:
```typescript
// Fallback relay configuration
supportedRelays: [
  'ws://127.0.0.1:7777',
  'wss://relay.damus.io',
  'wss://relay.snort.social',
  'wss://nostr-pub.wellorder.net',
  'wss://nostr.zebedee.cloud',
  'wss://nostr.walletofsatoshi.com'
]
```

### Configuration Utilities

**Admin Pubkey Validation**:
```typescript
export const configUtils = {
  isAdminPubkey(pubkey: string): boolean {
    return config.nostr.adminPubkeys.includes(pubkey)
  }
}
```

## Error Handling and Resilience

### Connection Management

**Automatic Reconnection**:
```typescript
// Relay hub automatically handles reconnection
private scheduleReconnect(): void {
  if (this.reconnectInterval) {
    clearTimeout(this.reconnectInterval)
  }

  this.reconnectInterval = setTimeout(async () => {
    await this.connect()
  }, this.reconnectDelay)
}
```

**Health Monitoring**:
```typescript
// Continuous health checks
private startHealthCheck(): void {
  this.healthCheckInterval = setInterval(() => {
    this.performHealthCheck()
  }, this.healthCheckIntervalMs)
}
```

### Error Handling Patterns

**Graceful Degradation**:
```typescript
// Components handle connection failures gracefully
async function loadNotes() {
  try {
    if (!relayHub.isConnected.value) {
      await relayHub.connect()
    }
    // ... load notes
  } catch (err) {
    error.value = err instanceof Error ? err : new Error('Failed to load notes')
    console.error('Failed to load notes:', err)
  }
}
```

**Retry Logic**:
```typescript
// Market app retry pattern
async def wait_for_nostr_events(nostr_client: NostrClient):
    while True:
        try:
            await subscribe_to_all_merchants()
            # ... process events
        except Exception as e:
            logger.warning(f"Subscription failed. Will retry in one minute: {e}")
            await asyncio.sleep(10)
```

## Event Processing and Filtering

### Filter Management

**Dynamic Filter Creation**:
```typescript
// Feed component creates filters based on type
const filters: any[] = [{
  kinds: [1], // TEXT_NOTE
  limit: 50
}]

// Filter by authors for announcements
if (props.feedType === 'announcements' && hasAdminPubkeys.value) {
  filters[0].authors = adminPubkeys
}
```

**Market Event Filtering**:
```typescript
// Market-specific filters
const _filters_for_stall_events = (public_keys: List[str], since: int) -> List:
    stall_filter = {"kinds": [30017], "authors": public_keys}
    if since and since != 0:
        stall_filter["since"] = since
    return [stall_filter]
```

### Event Processing Pipeline

**Event Processing Flow**:
```typescript
// 1. Receive event from relay
onEvent: (event) => {
  // 2. Process and transform
  const newNote = {
    id: event.id,
    pubkey: event.pubkey,
    content: event.content,
    created_at: event.created_at,
    tags: event.tags || [],
    mentions: event.tags?.filter(tag => tag[0] === 'p').map(tag => tag[1]) || [],
    isReply: event.tags?.some(tag => tag[0] === 'e' && tag[3] === 'reply'),
    replyTo: event.tags?.find(tag => tag[0] === 'e' && tag[3] === 'reply')?.[1]
  }

  // 3. Apply business logic filters
  let shouldInclude = true
  if (props.feedType === 'announcements' && !isAdminPost(event.pubkey)) {
    shouldInclude = false
  }

  // 4. Add to state if approved
  if (shouldInclude) {
    notes.value.unshift(newNote)
    // 5. Limit array size for memory management
    if (notes.value.length > 100) {
      notes.value = notes.value.slice(0, 100)
    }
  }
}
```

## Performance Optimizations

### Memory Management

**Array Size Limits**:
```typescript
// Prevent memory issues with large feeds
if (notes.value.length > 100) {
  notes.value = notes.value.slice(0, 100)
}
```

**Subscription Cleanup**:
```typescript
// Proper cleanup prevents memory leaks
onUnmounted(() => {
  if (unsubscribe) {
    unsubscribe()
    unsubscribe = null
  }
})
```

### Connection Pooling

**Shared WebSocket Connections**:
```typescript
// Single pool shared across all components
private pool: SimplePool

// Components don't create individual connections
// They all use the centralized relay hub
```

**Efficient Relay Usage**:
```typescript
// Query multiple relays simultaneously
const events = await this.pool.querySync(availableRelays, filter)

// Publish to all relays in parallel
const results = await Promise.allSettled(
  relayUrls.map(relay => this.pool.publish([relay], event))
)
```

## Security Considerations

### Encryption and Privacy

**End-to-End Encryption**:
```typescript
// All chat messages are encrypted using nip04
const encryptedContent = await nip04.encrypt(
  privateKey,
  publicKey,
  content
)
```

**Private Key Management**:
```typescript
// Keys never leave the browser
// Validation of key format and length
if (privateKey.length !== 64) {
  throw new Error(`Invalid private key length: ${privateKey.length} (expected 64)`)
}

// Hex format validation
const hexRegex = /^[0-9a-fA-F]+$/
if (!hexRegex.test(privateKey)) {
  throw new Error(`Invalid private key format: contains non-hex characters`)
}
```

### Access Control

**Admin Pubkey Validation**:
```typescript
// Only admin pubkeys can post announcements
function isAdminPost(pubkey: string): boolean {
  return configUtils.isAdminPubkey(pubkey)
}

// Filter content based on user permissions
if (props.feedType === 'announcements' && !isAdminPost(event.pubkey)) {
  shouldInclude = false
}
```
