If you navigate to
/.well-known/atproto-did
you'll be served plain text that reads
did:plc:yourDIDhere. This is achieved with an
Astro static file endpoint.
import type { APIRoute } from "astro";
export const GET: APIRoute = () => {
return new Response("did:plc:yourDIDhere");
};
Update the
src/pages/.well-known/atproto-did.ts file with your own DID,
build the site and deploy it somewhere (I like
Netlify). Then you'll be able to
verify your custom domain handle on Bluesky with the HTTP method!
This demo might be useful if you don't have access easy access to the DNS records of your site or subdomain. You may not even want to maintain a website there, you can just use this to bootstrap the domain authentication! For example, my bot project @helveticabot.jacklorusso.com is on a subdomain of my website, but doesn't really need a web presence.
For more information read 'How to set your domain as your handle' on the Bluesky blog.
