Some recommendations

[Semisol]

• If you want to be fully nostr compatible, you will need to do some changes
  • time should be replaced by created_at, and uses unix seconds instead of ms
  • public_key must be a 64 character public key according to BIP 340, and should be renamed to pubkey
  • signature must be a 128 character hex signature of the event, how it is generated is defined in NIP-01
  • message should be replaced by content
  • You cannot have properties like contact on the event itself, you can make content a stringified JSON object though.
  • You need to add a tags array, that may be empty or contain additional metadata. The current standard is one letter tags will get indexed, so you can look up any event with a specific tag value.
  • Kinds must be numbers, not strings.
• Optional recommendations if you want to use nostr
  • CANCEL_REQUEST can be replaced by kind 5 events that will mark an event as "deleted" and may stop returning it in queries in some relays implementations, currently only nostr-rs-relay from my knowledge.
