Smilodon

Smilodon is a Javascript library for Mastodon's API.

This project is really new and few functionalities are present, but the structure is here.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

This library needs to be connected to a running instance of Mastodon (https://mastodon.social for example). The API does not allow to create a new user so you need to create one on the default interface before use the library.

Installing

Using NPM:

npm install smilodon

Using GitHub (last version):

git clone https://github.com/5ika/smilodon
yarn install
yarn build

How to use it

import Smilodon from 'smilodon';
const smilodon = new Smilodon('MyAppName');

smilodon.register('https://mastodon.social');
smilodon.authorize('myEmail', 'myPassword');
const API = smilodon.api();

API.getUserCredentials()
	.then((myCreds) => console.log({myCreds}))
	.catch((error) => console.error(error));

Running the tests

First, add user credentials in the test.js file. Then, you can run tests with Mocha:

yarn test

Contributing

The project is really young, everyone is invited to contribute.

For the moment, we need to add support for every endpoints of the Mastodon API.
