it is HTTP authentication with npubs, and it is pretty cool

yeah, i want this to replace http-basic auth on #realy admin port... the only problem is i think this means i need to replace curl with a curl substitute that understands nip-98, has someone built this?

no, and I would recommend you make a dedicated CLI to manage the relay via HTTP

why would someone not want a CURL with nip-98 support?

i doubt that the retards in normie-dev-land are gonna add or accept a MR/PR to put this support into curl and it's just a fucking tty adapter after all

you just haven't thinked about it

you could make a tool to generate a NIP-98 event by taking in URL + path, so it should be easy though

yeah, it would be soooo easy, but i have to build a proper library to do it on both sides, gonna pencil it into my mental notebook as a near future thing

also, i'm a bit bored with making my nostr relay chat UI right now, this might be an easy thing to do... investigates
