-Installation
-============
-
-Clone this repository and add the lisp directory to your load path.
-Then, require it and go.
-
- (add-to-list 'load-path "/path/to/mastodon.el/lisp")
- (require 'mastodon)
-
- Or, with ‘use-package’:
-
- (use-package mastodon
- :ensure t)
-
- The minimum Emacs version is now 27.1. But if you are running an
-older version it shouldn’t be very hard to get it working.
-
-* Menu:
-
-* MELPA::
-* Emoji::
-* Discover::
-
-
-File: README.info, Node: MELPA, Next: Emoji, Up: Installation
-
-MELPA
------
-
-Add ‘MELPA’ to your archives:
-
- (require 'package)
- (add-to-list 'package-archives
- '("melpa" . "http://melpa.org/packages/") t)
-
- Update and install:
-
- ‘M-x package-refresh-contents RET’
-
- ‘M-x package-install RET mastodon RET’
-
-
-File: README.info, Node: Emoji, Next: Discover, Prev: MELPA, Up: Installation
-
-Emoji
------
-
-‘mastodon-mode’ will enable Emojify
-(https://github.com/iqbalansari/emacs-emojify) if it is loaded in your
-Emacs environment, so there’s no need to write your own hook anymore.
-‘emojify-mode’ is not required.
-
-
-File: README.info, Node: Discover, Prev: Emoji, Up: Installation
-
-Discover
---------
-
-‘mastodon-mode’ can provide a context menu for its keybindings if
-Discover (https://github.com/mickeynp/discover.el) is installed. It is
-not required.
-
- if you have Discover, add the following to your Emacs init
-configuration:
-
- (require 'mastodon-discover)
- (with-eval-after-load 'mastodon (mastodon-discover))
-
- Or, with ‘use-package’:
-
- (use-package mastodon
- :ensure t
- :config
- (mastodon-discover))

-
-Logging in to your instance
----------------------------
-
-You need to set 2 variables in your init file to get started:
-
- 1. ‘mastodon-instance-url’
- 2. ‘mastodon-active-user’
-
- (see their doc strings for details). For example If you want to post
-toots as “example_user@social.instance.org”, then put this in your init
-file:
-
- (setq mastodon-instance-url "https://social.instance.org"
- mastodon-active-user "example_user")
-
- Then *restart* Emacs and run ‘M-x mastodon’. Make sure you are
-connected to internet before you do this. If you have multiple mastodon
-accounts you can activate one at a time by changing those two variables
-and restarting Emacs.
-
- If you were using mastodon.el before 2FA was implemented and the
-above steps do not work, delete the old file specified by
-‘mastodon-client--token-file’ and restart Emacs and follow the steps
-again.
-
-
-File: README.info, Node: Timelines, Next: Composing toots, Prev: Logging in to your instance, Up: Usage
-
-Timelines
----------
-
-‘M-x mastodon’
-
- Opens a ‘*mastodon-home*’ buffer in the major mode and displays
-toots. If your credentials are not yet saved, you will be prompted for
-email and password. The app registration process will take place if
-your ‘mastodon-token-file’ does not contain ‘:client_id’ and
-‘:client_secret’.

-Composing toots
----------------
-
-‘M-x mastodon-toot’ (or ‘t’ from a mastodon.el buffer).
-
- Pops a new buffer/window in ‘mastodon-toot’ minor mode. Enter the

-
- Autocompletion of mentions and tags is provided by
-‘completion-at-point-functions’ (capf) backends.
-‘mastodon-toot--enable-completion’ is enabled by default. If you want
-to enable ‘company-mode’ in the toot compose buffer, set
-‘mastodon-toot--use-company-for-completion’ to ‘t’. (‘mastodon.el’ used
-to run its own native company backends, but these have been removed in
-favour of capfs.)
-
- Replies preserve visibility status/content warnings, and include
-boosters by default.
-
- Server’s max toot length, and attachment previews, are shown.
-
- You can download and use your instance’s custom emoji
-(‘mastodon-toot--download-custom-emoji’,

-
-Alternative timeline layout
----------------------------
-
-The incomparable Nicholas Rougier has written an alternative timeline
-layout for ‘mastodon.el’.
-
- The repo is at <https://github.com/rougier/mastodon-alt>.
-
-
-File: README.info, Node: Live-updating timelines mastodon-async-mode, Next: Translating toots, Prev: Alternative timeline layout, Up: Usage
-
-Live-updating timelines: ‘mastodon-async-mode’
-----------------------------------------------
-
-(code taken from <https://github.com/alexjgriffith/mastodon-future.el>.)
-
- Works for federated, local, and home timelines and for notifications.
-It’s a little touchy, one thing to avoid is trying to load a timeline
-more than once at a time. It can go off the rails a bit, but it’s still
-pretty cool. The current maintainer of ‘mastodon.el’ is unable to debug
-or improve this feature.
-
- To enable, it, add ‘(require 'mastodon-async)’ to your ‘init.el’.
-Then you can view a timeline with one of the commands that begin with
-‘mastodon-async--stream-’.
-
-
-File: README.info, Node: Translating toots, Prev: Live-updating timelines mastodon-async-mode, Up: Usage
-
-Translating toots
------------------
-
-You can translate toots with ‘mastodon-toot--translate-toot-text’ (‘a’
-in a timeline). At the moment this requires lingva.el
-(https://codeberg.org/martianh/lingva.el), a little interface I wrote to
-<https://lingva.ml>, to be installed to work.
-
- You could easily modify the simple function to use your Emacs
-translator of choice (‘libretrans.el’ , ‘google-translate’, ‘babel’,
-‘go-translate’, etc.), you just need to fetch the toot’s content with
-‘(mastodon-tl--content toot)’ and pass it to your translator function as
-its text argument. Here’s what ‘mastodon-toot--translate-toot-text’
-looks like:
-
- (defun mastodon-toot--translate-toot-text ()
- "Translate text of toot at point.
- Uses `lingva.el'."
- (interactive)
- (let* ((toot (mastodon-tl--property 'toot-json)))
- (if toot
- (lingva-translate nil (mastodon-tl--content toot))
- (message "No toot to translate?"))))

-Dependencies
-============
-
-Hard dependencies (should all install with ‘mastodon.el’):
- • ‘request’ (for uploading attachments),
- <https://github.com/tkf/emacs-request>
- • ‘persist’ for storing some settings across sessions
- • ‘ts’ for poll relative expiry times
-
- Optional dependencies:
- • ‘emojify’ for inserting and viewing emojis
- • ‘mpv’ and ‘mpv.el’ for viewing videos and gifs
- • ‘lingva.el’ for translating toots
-
-
-File: README.info, Node: Network compatibility, Next: Contributing, Prev: Dependencies, Up: README
-
-Network compatibility
-=====================
-
-‘mastodon.el’ should work with ActivityPub servers that implement the
-Mastodon API.
-
- Apart from Mastodon itself, it is currently known to work with
-Pleroma and Gotosocial. If you attempt to use ‘mastodon.el’ with
-another server that implements the Mastodon API and run into problems,
-feel free to open an issue.

-
-Bug reports
------------
-
- 1. ‘mastodon.el’ has bugs, as well as lots of room for improvement.
- 2. I receive very little feedback, so if I don’t run into the bug it
- often doesn’t get fixed.
- 3. If you run into something that seems broken, first try running
- ‘mastodon.el’ in emacs with no init file (i.e. ‘emacs -q’
- (instructions and code for doing this are here
- (https://codeberg.org/martianh/mastodon.el/issues/300)) to see if
- it also happens independently of your own config (it probably
- does).
- 4. Enable debug on error (‘toggle-debug-on-error’), make the bug
- happen again, and copy the backtrace that appears.
- 5. Open an issue here and explain what is going on. Provide your
- emacs version and what kind of server your account is on.
-
-
-File: README.info, Node: Fixes and features, Next: Coding style, Prev: Bug reports, Up: Contributing
-
-Fixes and features
-------------------
-
- 1. Create an issue (https://codeberg.org/martianh/mastodon.el/issues)
- detailing what you’d like to do.
- 2. Fork the repository and create a branch off of ‘develop’.
- 3. Run the tests and ensure that your code doesn’t break any of them.
- 4. Create a pull request referencing the issue created in step 1.
-
-
-File: README.info, Node: Coding style, Prev: Fixes and features, Up: Contributing
-
-Coding style
-------------
-
- • This library uses an unconvential double dash (‘--’) between file
- namespaces and function names, which contradicts normal Elisp
- style. This needs to be respected until the whole library is
- changed.
- • Use ‘aggressive-indent-mode’ or similar to keep your code indented.
- • Single spaces end sentences in docstrings.
- • There’s no need for a blank line after the first docstring line
- (one is added automatically when documentation is displayed).

-method, write to me at that address and I can provide IBAN or other
-details.
-
- I don’t have a tech worker’s income, so even a small tip would help
