Mastodon.py
===========
Python wrapper for the Mastodon ( https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/ ) API. 
Feature complete for public API as of Mastodon version 2.8.4 and easy to get started with:

.. code-block:: python

    #Register your app! This only needs to be done once. Uncomment the code and substitute in your information.
    
    from mastodon import Mastodon

    '''
    Mastodon.create_app(
         'pytooterapp',
         api_base_url = 'https://mastodon.social',
         to_file = 'pytooter_clientcred.secret'
    )
    '''

    # Then login. This can be done every time, or use persisted.

    from mastodon import Mastodon
    
    mastodon = Mastodon(
        client_id = 'pytooter_clientcred.secret',
        api_base_url = 'https://mastodon.social'
    )
    mastodon.log_in(
        '[email protected]',
        'incrediblygoodpassword',
        to_file = 'pytooter_usercred.secret'
    )

    # To post, create an actual API instance.

    from mastodon import Mastodon
    
    mastodon = Mastodon(
        access_token = 'pytooter_usercred.secret',
        api_base_url = 'https://mastodon.social'
    )
    mastodon.toot('Tooting from python using #mastodonpy !')

You can install Mastodon.py via pypi:

.. code-block:: Bash

   # Python 2
   pip install Mastodon.py
   
   # Python 3
