Mastodon.py
===========
Python wrapper for the Mastodon ( https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/ ) API.
Feature complete for public API as of Mastodon version 3.5.5 and easy to get started with:
.. code-block:: python
from mastodon import Mastodon
# Register your app! This only needs to be done once (per server, or when
# distributing rather than hosting an application, most likely per device and server).
# Uncomment the code and substitute in your information:
'''
Mastodon.create_app(
'pytooterapp',
api_base_url = 'https://mastodon.social',
to_file = 'pytooter_clientcred.secret'
)
'''
# Then, log in. This can be done every time your application starts (e.g. when writing a
# simple bot), or you can use the persisted information:
mastodon = Mastodon(client_id = 'pytooter_clientcred.secret',)
mastodon.log_in(
'[email protected]',
'incrediblygoodpassword',
to_file = 'pytooter_usercred.secret'
)
# Note that this won't work when using 2FA - you'll have to use OAuth, in that case.
# To post, create an actual API instance:
mastodon = Mastodon(access_token = 'pytooter_usercred.secret')
mastodon.toot('Tooting from Python using #mastodonpy !')
You can install Mastodon.py via pypi:
.. code-block:: Bash
# Python 3
pip3 install Mastodon.py
We currently try to support Python 3.7 and above, and try to at least not break Python 3 versions
below that. Python 2 support is no longer a goal.
Full documentation and basic usage examples can be found
at https://mastodonpy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/
