## Abstract
This specification describes how the payload of each message in Status looks
like.
It is primarily centered around chat and chat-related use cases.
The payloads aims to be flexible enough to support messaging but also cases
described in the [Status Whitepaper](https://status.im/whitepaper.pdf) as well
as various clients created using different technologies.
## Wire Format Specification
### Payload wrapper
The node wraps all payloads in a [protobuf record](https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/)
record:
```protobuf
message StatusProtocolMessage {
bytes signature = 4001;
bytes payload = 4002;
}
```
`signature` is the bytes of the signed `SHA3-256` of the payload, signed with the key of the author of the message.
The node needs the signature to validate authorship of the message, so that the message can be relayed to third parties.
If a signature is not present, but an author is provided by a layer below, the message is not to be relayed to third parties, and it is considered plausibly deniable.
### Encoding
The node encodes the payload using [Protobuf](https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers)
### Types of messages
#### ChatMessage
The type `ChatMessage` represents a chat message exchanged between clients.
#### Payload
The protobuf description is:
```protobuf
message ChatMessage {
// Lamport timestamp of the chat message
uint64 clock = 1;
// Unix timestamps in milliseconds, currently not used as we use whisper as
// more reliable, but here so that we don't rely on it
uint64 timestamp = 2;
// Text of the message
string text = 3;
// Id of the message that we are replying to
string response_to = 4;
// Ens name of the sender
string ens_name = 5;
// Chat id, this field is symmetric for public-chats and private group chats,
// but asymmetric in case of one-to-ones, as the sender will use the chat-id
// of the received, while the receiver will use the chat-id of the sender.
// Probably should be the concatenation of sender-pk & receiver-pk in
// alphabetical order
string chat_id = 6;
// The type of message (public/one-to-one/private-group-chat)
MessageType message_type = 7;
// The type of the content of the message
ContentType content_type = 8;
oneof payload {
StickerMessage sticker = 9;
ImageMessage image = 10;
AudioMessage audio = 11;
bytes community = 12;
DiscordMessage discord_message = 99;
}
// Grant for community chat messages
bytes grant = 13;
// Message author's display name, introduced in version 1
string display_name = 14;
ContactRequestPropagatedState contact_request_propagated_state = 15;
repeated UnfurledLink unfurled_links = 16;
enum ContentType {
UNKNOWN_CONTENT_TYPE = 0;
TEXT_PLAIN = 1;
STICKER = 2;
STATUS = 3;
EMOJI = 4;
TRANSACTION_COMMAND = 5;
// Only local
SYSTEM_MESSAGE_CONTENT_PRIVATE_GROUP = 6;
IMAGE = 7;
AUDIO = 8;
COMMUNITY = 9;
// Only local
SYSTEM_MESSAGE_GAP = 10;
CONTACT_REQUEST = 11;
DISCORD_MESSAGE = 12;
IDENTITY_VERIFICATION = 13;
// Only local
SYSTEM_MESSAGE_PINNED_MESSAGE = 14;
// Only local
SYSTEM_MESSAGE_MUTUAL_EVENT_SENT = 15;
// Only local
SYSTEM_MESSAGE_MUTUAL_EVENT_ACCEPTED = 16;
// Only local
SYSTEM_MESSAGE_MUTUAL_EVENT_REMOVED = 17;
}
}
```

#### Content types
A node requires content types for a proper interpretation of incoming messages. Not each message is plain text but may carry different information.
The following content types MUST be supported:
* `TEXT_PLAIN` identifies a message which content is a plaintext.
There are other content types that MAY be implemented by the client:
* `STICKER`
* `STATUS`
* `EMOJI`
* `TRANSACTION_COMMAND`
* `IMAGE`
* `AUDIO`
* `COMMUNITY`
* `CONTACT_REQUEST`
* `DISCORD_MESSAGE`
* `IDENTITY_VERIFICATION`
##### Mentions
A mention MUST be represented as a string with the `@0xpk` format, where `pk` is the public key of the [user account](https://specs.status.im/spec/2) to be mentioned, within the `text` field of a message with content_type `TEXT_PLAIN`.
A message MAY contain more than one mention.
This specification RECOMMENDs that the application does not require the user to enter the entire pk.
This specification RECOMMENDs that the application allows the user to create a mention by typing @ followed by the related ENS or 3-word pseudonym.
This specification RECOMMENDs that the application provides the user auto-completion functionality to create a mention.
For better user experience, the client SHOULD display a known [ens name or the 3-word pseudonym corresponding to the key](https://specs.status.im/spec/2#contact-verification) instead of the `pk`.
##### Sticker content type
A `ChatMessage` with `STICKER` `Content/Type` MUST also specify the ID of the `Pack` and
the `Hash` of the pack, in the `Sticker` field of `ChatMessage`
```protobuf
message StickerMessage {
string hash = 1;
int32 pack = 2;
}
```
##### Image content type
A `ChatMessage` with `IMAGE` `Content/Type` MUST also specify the `payload` of the image
and the `type`.
Clients MUST sanitize the payload before accessing its content, in particular:
- Clients MUST choose a secure decoder
- Clients SHOULD strip metadata if present without parsing/decoding it
- Clients SHOULD NOT add metadata/exif when sending an image file for privacy and security reasons
- Clients MUST make sure that the transport layer constraints the size of the payload to limit they are able to handle securely
```protobuf
message ImageMessage {
bytes payload = 1;
ImageType type = 2;
enum ImageType {
UNKNOWN_IMAGE_TYPE = 0;
PNG = 1;
JPEG = 2;
WEBP = 3;
GIF = 4;
}
}
```
##### Audio content type
A `ChatMessage` with `AUDIO` `Content/Type` MUST also specify the `payload` of the audio,
the `type` and the duration in milliseconds (`duration_ms`).
Clients MUST sanitize the payload before accessing its content, in particular:
- Clients MUST choose a secure decoder
- Clients SHOULD strip metadata if present without parsing/decoding it
- Clients SHOULD NOT add metadata/exif when sending an audio file for privacy and security reasons
- Clients MUST make sure that the transport layer constraints the size of the payload to limit they are able to handle securely
```protobuf
message AudioMessage {
bytes payload = 1;
AudioType type = 2;
uint64 duration_ms = 3;
enum AudioType {
UNKNOWN_AUDIO_TYPE = 0;
AAC = 1;
AMR = 2;
```
##### Community content type
A `ChatMessage` with `COMMUNITY` `Content/Type` MUST also specify the `payload` of the community as bytes from a [CommunityDescription](#communitydescription).
##### DiscordMessage content type
A `ChatMessage` with `DISCORD_MESSAGE` `Content/Type` MUST also specify the `payload` of the `DiscordMessage`.
```protobuf
message DiscordMessage {
string id = 1;
string type = 2;
string timestamp = 3;
string timestampEdited = 4;
string content = 5;
DiscordMessageAuthor author = 6;
DiscordMessageReference reference = 7;
repeated DiscordMessageAttachment attachments = 8;
}
message DiscordMessageAuthor {
string id = 1;
string name = 2;
string discriminator = 3;
string nickname = 4;
string avatarUrl = 5;
bytes avatarImagePayload = 6;
string localUrl = 7;
}
message DiscordMessageReference {
string messageId = 1;
string channelId = 2;
string guildId = 3;
}
message DiscordMessageAttachment {
string id = 1;
string messageId = 2;
string url = 3;
string fileName = 4;
uint64 fileSizeBytes = 5;
string contentType = 6;
bytes payload = 7;
string localUrl = 8;
}
```
#### Message types
A node requires message types to decide how to encrypt a particular message and what metadata needs to be attached when passing a message to the transport layer.
For more on this, see [10/WAKU2](../../waku/standards/core/10/waku2.md).
\<!-- TODO: This reference is a bit odd, considering the layer payloads should interact with is Secure Transport, and not Whisper/Waku. This requires more detail --\>
The following messages types MUST be supported:
* `ONE_TO_ONE` is a message to the public group
* `PUBLIC_GROUP` is a private message
* `PRIVATE_GROUP` is a message to the private group.
* `COMMUNITY_CHAT` is a message to a community channe.
```protobuf
enum MessageType {
UNKNOWN_MESSAGE_TYPE = 0;
ONE_TO_ONE = 1;
PUBLIC_GROUP = 2;
PRIVATE_GROUP = 3;
// Only local
SYSTEM_MESSAGE_PRIVATE_GROUP = 4;
COMMUNITY_CHAT = 5;
// Only local
SYSTEM_MESSAGE_GAP = 6;
}
```
#### Clock vs Timestamp and message ordering
If a user sends a new message before the messages sent while the user was offline are received, the new message is supposed to be displayed last in a chat.
This is where the basic algorithm of Lamport timestamp would fall short as it's only meant to order causally related events.
The status client therefore makes a "bid", speculating that it will beat the current chat-timestamp, s.t. the status client's Lamport timestamp format is: `clock = `max({timestamp}, chat_clock + 1)`
This will satisfy the Lamport requirement, namely: a -\> b then T(a) \< T(b)
`timestamp` MUST be Unix time calculated, when the node creates the message, in milliseconds.
This field SHOULD not be relied upon for message ordering.
`clock` SHOULD be calculated using the algorithm of [Lamport timestamps](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamport_timestamps).
When there are messages available in a chat, the node calculates `clock`'s value based on the last received message in a particular chat: `max(timeNowInMs, last-message-clock-value + 1)`.
If there are no messages, `clock` is initialized with `timestamp`'s value.
Messages with a `clock` greater than `120` seconds over the Whisper/Waku timestamp SHOULD be discarded, in order to avoid malicious users to increase the `clock` of a chat arbitrarily.
Messages with a `clock` less than `120` seconds under the Whisper/Waku timestamp might indicate an attempt to insert messages in the chat history which is not distinguishable from a `datasync` layer re-transit event.
A client MAY mark this messages with a warning to the user, or discard them.
The node uses `clock` value for the message ordering. The algorithm used, and the distributed nature of the system produces casual ordering, which might produce counter-intuitive results in some edge cases.
For example, when a user joins a public chat and sends a message before receiving the exist messages, their message `clock` value might be lower and the message will end up in the past when the historical messages are fetched.
#### Chats
Chat is a structure that helps organize messages.
It's usually desired to display messages only from a single recipient, or a group of recipients at a time and chats help to achieve that.
All incoming messages can be matched against a chat.
The below table describes how to calculate a chat ID for each message type.
|Message Type|Chat ID Calculation|Direction|Comment|
|------------|-------------------|---------|-------|
|PUBLIC_GROUP|chat ID is equal to a public channel name; it should equal `chatId` from the message|Incoming/Outgoing||
|ONE_TO_ONE|let `P` be a public key of the recipient; `hex-encode(P)` is a chat ID; use it as `chatId` value in the message|Outgoing||
|user-message|let `P` be a public key of message's signature; `hex-encode(P)` is a chat ID; discard `chat-id` from message|Incoming|if there is no matched chat, it might be the first message from public key `P`; the node MAY discard the message or MAY create a new chat; Status official clients create a new chat|
|PRIVATE_GROUP|use `chatId` from the message|Incoming/Outgoing|find an existing chat by `chatId`; if none is found, the user is not a member of that chat or the user hasn't joined that chat, the message MUST be discarded |
|COMMUNITY_CHAT|use `chatId` from the message|Incoming/Outgoing| find existing community chat within a community based on `chatId`; the `chatId` includes a community id prefix |
### ContactUpdate
`ContactUpdate` is a message exchange to notify peers that either the user has been added as a contact, or that information about the sending user have changed.
```protobuf
message ContactUpdate {
uint64 clock = 1;
string ens_name = 2;
string profile_image = 3;
string display_name = 4;
uint64 contact_request_clock = 5;
ContactRequestPropagatedState contact_request_propagated_state = 6;
string public_key = 7;
}
message ContactRequestPropagatedState {
uint64 local_clock = 1;
uint64 local_state = 2;
uint64 remote_clock = 3;
uint64 remote_state = 4;
}
```
#### Payload
| Field | Name | Type | Description |
| ----- | ---- | ---- | ---- |
| 1 | clock | `uint64` | The clock of the chat with the user |
| 2 | ens_name | `string` | The ENS name if set |
| 3 | profile_image | `string` | The base64 encoded profile picture of the user |
| 4 | display_name | `string` | The display name of the user |
| 5 | contact_request_clock | `uint64` | The clock at which a contact request was sent |
| 6 | contact_request_propagated_state | `ContactRequestPropagatedState` | Additional propagation clock values |
| 7 | public_key | `string` | The public key of the user |
#### Contact update
A client SHOULD send a `ContactUpdate` to all the contacts each time:
- The ens_name has changed
- A user edits the profile image
A client SHOULD also periodically send a `ContactUpdate` to all the contacts, the interval is up to the client, the Status official client sends these updates every 48 hours.
### EmojiReaction
`EmojiReaction`s represents a user's "reaction" to a specific chat message.
For more information about the concept of emoji reactions see [Facebook Reactions](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facebook_like_button#Use_on_Facebook).
This specification RECOMMENDS that the UI/UX implementation of sending `EmojiReactions` requires only a single click operation, as users have an expectation that emoji reactions are effortless and simple to perform.
```protobuf
message EmojiReaction {
// clock Lamport timestamp of the chat message
uint64 clock = 1;
// chat_id the ID of the chat the message belongs to, for query efficiency the chat_id is stored in the db even though the
// target message also stores the chat_id
string chat_id = 2;
// message_id the ID of the target message that the user wishes to react to
string message_id = 3;
// message_type is (somewhat confusingly) the ID of the type of chat the message belongs to
MessageType message_type = 4;
// type the ID of the emoji the user wishes to react with
Type type = 5;
enum Type {
UNKNOWN_EMOJI_REACTION_TYPE = 0;
LOVE = 1;
THUMBS_UP = 2;
THUMBS_DOWN = 3;
LAUGH = 4;
SAD = 5;
ANGRY = 6;
}
// whether this is a retraction of a previously sent emoji
bool retracted = 6;
}
```
Clients MUST specify `clock`, `chat_id`, `message_id`, `type` and `message_type`.
This specification RECOMMENDS that the UI/UX implementation of retracting an `EmojiReaction`s requires only a single click operation, as users have an expectation that emoji reaction removals are effortless and simple to perform.
### MembershipUpdateMessage and MembershipUpdateEvent
`MembershipUpdateEvent` is a message used to propagate information about group membership changes in a group chat.
The details are in the [Group chats specs](../56/communities.md).
```protobuf
message MembershipUpdateMessage {
// The chat id of the private group chat
string chat_id = 1;
// A list of events for this group chat, first x bytes are the signature, then is a
// protobuf encoded MembershipUpdateEvent
repeated bytes events = 2;
// An optional chat message
oneof chat_entity {
ChatMessage message = 3;
EmojiReaction emoji_reaction = 4;
}
}
message MembershipUpdateEvent {
// Lamport timestamp of the event
uint64 clock = 1;
// List of public keys of objects of the action
repeated string members = 2;
// Name of the chat for the CHAT_CREATED/NAME_CHANGED event types
string name = 3;
// The type of the event
EventType type = 4;
// Color of the chat for the CHAT_CREATED/COLOR_CHANGED event types
