The realtime connection now carries the IMVU chats a client is in: the hub tells each proxy in a chat which other T5DE users are there and what community products they wear (adult products only to adult accounts), on joining and on every change. Rooms T5DE users enter are looked up on IMVU; those that are public, listed and whose owner turned on "List my public rooms" appear on the new Rooms page, with the T5DE users in them who show they're online. AP rooms are shown to adults only. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <[email protected]>
t5de-hub
T5DE's hub: accounts linked to IMVU accounts, presence, and (to come) the registry of community products and catalogs, T5DE-hosted rooms, and the moderation console. Part of T5DE (git.t5de.dev/t5de). Design: docs/design.md; the API: docs/api.md; what a room needs from a server: docs/imq-rooms.md.
What works
- Accounts (Better Auth): sign-up with email, username and password; sign-in by username. The first account is an admin; roles user, moderator, admin.
- Linking IMVU accounts: the person puts a code in the account's tagline; the hub reads it from IMVU's public API. The most recent proof wins (an account linked elsewhere moves, with a new pairwise ID). Link caps per person (default 10).
- Age: an IMVU account counts as adult if IMVU says it's age verified or has Access Pass, checked by the hub.
- Proxy sign-in: OAuth 2.0 device authorization (
t5de-proxy signinshows a code to enter at/device); the proxy then uses its session as a bearer token. JWTs with published keys (/.well-known/jwks.json) for catalogs. - Presence: signed-in proxies keep a WebSocket (
/api/v1/realtime) telling the hub which IMVU account is in use and the community products it wears./onlineshows those who opted in, live, with the opt-in T5DE badge. - Console (moderators): counts, who's online (live), people, link caps, bans, roles, the audit log.
Layout
A Bun monorepo (workspaces, Turborepo):
apps/api |
The API: Elysia on Bun, Better Auth, the realtime WebSocket. Port 4101. |
apps/web |
The website: Next.js 16 (React server components), Tailwind CSS 4, shadcn/ui. Port 4100. Calls the API through its own /api (rewrites), typed end to end with Eden. |
packages/db |
Drizzle schema and migrations; Postgres in production, PGlite (in-process Postgres) for development and tests. |
Development
Needs Bun (1.4) and Node (for Next.js).
bun install
bun run dev # the API on :4101 (database in apps/api/data) and the website on :4100
bun run test tests the API against PGlite; bun run check-types, bun run build.
Running it
- Self-hosted:
AUTH_SECRET=$(openssl rand -base64 32) docker compose up -druns Postgres, the API and the website (seedocker-compose.ymlfor the public addresses). - Elsewhere: the website deploys as is to Vercel and similar (
apps/web, envAPI_URL); the API to any host that runs Bun or containers (Railway, Render, Fly.io, Heroku), withDATABASE_URL,AUTH_SECRET,API_URL(its public address) andWEB_URL(the website's).
T5DE's proxies reach the API's address directly (sign-in and the WebSocket): t5de-proxy signin -hub <API address>.
