Topology and API
This is a nested lingtai-portal-guide reference. It covers the on-disk topology tape, replay chunks, HTTP endpoints, and live network JSON shape.
topology.jsonl
Each line is a TapeFrame:
{
"t": 1744567890123,
"net": { "nodes": [...], "avatar_edges": [...], "contact_edges": [...], "mail_edges": [...], "stats": {...} }
}
t is milliseconds since epoch. net is the same Network object /api/network serves; Network response shape below is a representative example of its core fields.
Replay chunks
Historical data is stored as delta-encoded, keyframed, gzipped JSON chunks bucketed by hour under .lingtai/.portal/replay/chunks/. The manifest.json in that chunks directory lists all available chunks with their time ranges and frame counts.
API endpoints
All endpoints are served at http://localhost:<port>.
| Endpoint | Method | Response | Description |
|---|
/api/network | GET | Network JSON | Live network state (nodes, edges, stats) |
/api/topology | GET | JSON array of TapeFrame | Full topology tape (can be large) |
/api/topology/manifest | GET | ReplayManifest JSON | Chunk metadata for replay |
/api/topology/chunk?start=<hourMs> | GET | Chunk JSON (optionally gzip-encoded when requested) | Frames for one hour-bucket start time |
/api/topology/progress | GET | JSON object such as { "current": N, "total": M } (or {}) | Reconstruction progress parsed from reconstruct.progress |
/api/topology/rebuild | POST | ReplayManifest JSON | Trigger tape reconstruction from source data and rewrite replay chunks |
