#mastoapi — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #mastoapi, aggregated by home.social.

  1. ok github.com/evant/mastodon-api- now has the full mastodon api! Not that helpful by itself because docs.joinmastodon.org/ is already pretty good but it does prove out I can represent the whole api. If you have experience with other fedi software or just want to dive through old release notes I'd love help with this!

  2. Should it be possible applications using the Mastodon OAuth APIs to be able to request access to your email address?

    This would be an additional scope required, and be highlighted in the OAuth authorization flow that this application is requesting access to your email address.

    I can't decide if this would be a good thing to implement or not.

  3. Tumblr has released an early version of an API for their new Communities feature. At first glance, it looks like it could have a mastodon api wrapper thrown around it.

  4. Just landed two changes to Mastodon, particularly around Web Push Subscriptions:

    - github.com/mastodon/mastodon/p
    - github.com/mastodon/mastodon/p

    We'll now throw errors when doing `POST /api/v1/push/subscription` if the endpoint is an invalid URL, or if the keys values can't be used to encrypt a message.

    That prevents you from registering a push subscription that just wouldn't work. We previously lacked input validation here.

  5. @newsmast is the Social Media Feed (@socialmedia) just boosting everything under the mastodon hashtag?

    It might be wise to filter out posts also tagged with #MastoDev and #MastoAPI since these are intended for developer audiences rather than the general public.

  6. Folks using the Mastodon API will probably like this! Advertising deprecations in API responses: github.com/mastodon/mastodon/i

  7. Fediverse App developers, would this help you in building out the correct UI for filing reports?

    Currently this is all hard-coded into the web version

  8. ✨ You can now use 3rd party webUIs like phanpy with Pixelfed!

  9. I wonder how hard it would be to write a simple #MastoAPI boost bot? 🤔

    You'd basically just need an API token for your user, and a way to target a specific account you're following. Upon seeing a new status from that account, your own account would boost it.

    Seems simple enough?
  10. A #PullRequest adding #Micropub support is waiting to be merged into #Misskey's repo 👀

    If this gets added in, this will bring in Misskey (and
    #Sharkey too!) a lot more compatible third-party clients.. ​:gyate_patchouli_wow:​ Thus the issue of lack of clients in Misskey is workarounded and we may not need the #Mastodon #API (aka #MastoAPI) after all... ​:sagume_think:​

    This also AFAIK makes Misskey the first mainstream
    #fediverse software out there to support Micropub; earlier than Mastodon! ​:SuikaWOW:​

  11. Are all mastodon clients supposed share a notification status? Like if you read it one place, it marks it as read elsewhere?

    Like I see the API docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/ but I don't see the behavior at all. I'm guessing we don't push a dismissal? #mastodondev #mastoapi #api

  12. just published an update to my HyperCLI utility (npmjs.com/package/@mamund/hype).

    updated the OAUTH plugin to support mastodon.

    still some work to do to clear up app vs user authorization but now the fun continues.
