* mastodon.el
[[https://travis-ci.org/jdenen/mastodon.el][https://travis-ci.org/jdenen/mastodon.el.svg?branch=master]]
[[http://waffle.io/jdenen/mastodon.el][https://badge.waffle.io/jdenen/mastodon.el.png?label=in%20progress&title=In%20Progress]]
Emacs client for [[https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon][Mastodon]]
[[http://spacemacs.org][https://cdn.rawgit.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs/442d025779da2f62fc86c2082703697714db6514/assets/spacemacs-badge.svg]]
** Installation
Clone this repository and add the lisp directory to your load path.
Then, require it and go.
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(add-to-list 'load-path "/path/to/mastodon.el/lisp")
(require 'mastodon)
#+END_SRC
Or, with =use-package=:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(use-package mastodon
:load-path "/path/to/mastodon.el/lisp")
#+END_SRC
*** MELPA
I'll make mastdon.el available on MELPA when I feel like it's reached a
stable state.
*** Emoji
=mastodon-mode= will enable [[https://github.com/iqbalansari/emacs-emojify][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.
*** Discover
=mastodon-mode= will provide a context menu for its keybindings if [[https://github.com/mickeynp/discover.el][Discover]] is
installed. It is not required.
** Usage
*** 2 Factor Auth
2FA is not supported yet. It is in the [[https://github.com/jdenen/mastodon.el/milestone/2][plans]] for the =1.0.0= release.
If you have 2FA enabled and try to use mastodon.el, your Emacs client will hang until you `C-g` your way out.
*** Instance
Set =mastodon-instance-url= in your =.emacs= or =customize=. Defaults to the [[https://mastodon.social][flagship]].
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq mastodon-instance-url "https://my.instance.url")
#+END_SRC
*** Timelines
=M-x mastodon=
Opens a =*mastodon-home*= buffer in the major mode so you can see toots. 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=.
**** Keybindings
|-----+------------------------------------------------|
| Key | Action |
|-----+------------------------------------------------|
| =?= | Open context menu (if =discover= is available) |
| =b= | Boost toot under =point= |
| =f= | Favourite toot under =point= |
| =F= | Open federated timeline |
| =H= | Open home timeline |
| =j= | Go to next toot |
| =k= | Go to previous toot |
| =L= | Open local timeline |
| =n= | Switch to =mastodon-toot= buffer |
| =q= | Quit mastodon buffer. Leave window open. |
| =Q= | Quit mastodon buffer and kill window. |
| =r= | Reply to toot under =point=. |
| =t= | Open thread buffer for toot under =point=. |
| =T= | Prompt for tag and open its timeline |
|-----+------------------------------------------------|
**** Legend
|--------+-------------------------|
| Marker | Meaning |
|--------+-------------------------|
| =(B)= | I boosted this toot. |
| =(F)= | I favourited this toot. |
|--------+-------------------------|
*** Toot toot
=M-x mastodon-toot=
Pops a new buffer/window with a =mastodon-toot= minor mode. Enter the
contents of your toot here. =C-c C-c= sends the toot. =C-c C-k= cancels.
Both actions kill the buffer and window.
If you have not previously authenticated, you will be prompted for your
account email and password. *NOTE*: Email and password are NOT stored by mastodon.el.
Authentication stores your access token in the =mastodon-auth--token=
variable. It is not stored on your filesystem, so you will have to
re-authenticate when you close/reopen Emacs.

[[https://github.com/jdenen/mastodon.el/milestone/2][Here]] are the plans I have for the =1.0.0= release.
