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?")))) - - -File: README.info, Node: Dependencies, Next: Network compatibility, Prev: Usage, Up: README - -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. - - -File: README.info, Node: Contributing, Next: Supporting mastodonel, Prev: Network compatibility, Up: README - -Contributing -============ - -PRs, issues, feature requests, and general feedback are very welcome! - -* Menu: - -* Bug reports:: -* Fixes and features:: -* Coding style:: - - -File: README.info, Node: Bug reports, Next: Fixes and features, Up: Contributing - -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). - - -File: README.info, Node: Supporting mastodonel, Next: Contributors, Prev: Contributing, Up: README - -Supporting ‘mastodon.el’ -======================== - -If you’d like to support continued development of ‘mastodon.el’, I -accept donations via paypal: paypal.me/martianh -(https://paypal.me/martianh).
