Document that objects in main feed don't have "author" property #610

Open erincandescent opened 11 years ago

erincandescent commented 11 years ago

Objects returned as the subject of activities in the user's main feeds (/api/user/inbox, etc) don't have an "author" property when the verb is "post" or similar. While in many cases this is the same as the activity's actor, it interferes with caching the object.

In the Web UI, I think I slap the author property in when I get the activity.

So, I'm probably not going to change this; it seems like it's duplicating info and taking up a lot of bandwidth. Can you handle it the way I do in the Web UI?

Already am. It should probably be noted in API.md however
