Tootcord

A simple library for posting toots to one or multiple Mastodon server within a Discord.JS bot.

Documentation

The primary command is post_toot under the Tootcord class.

async function post_toot(text: string, files: Collection<Snowflake, MessageAttachment>): Promise<boolean>;

An example can be found in example.ts, otherwise, the following is a shorthand example:

import { Tootcord } from 'tootcord';

let mast_instance = new Tootcord ('m.skymocha.net', 'access_token');

// Discord client.on for message
client.on ('message', async (message: Message) => {

    if (message.content.startsWith('!mastworld')) 
        mast_instance.post_toot ('Hello World!', message.attachments).

}

Since post_toot returns a boolean as true when sent successfully, otherwise post_toot returns false.

Currently post_toot returns false if the text is over 500 characters, you can implement length and error checking by doing the following:

// OPTION ONE
let toot: boolean = await masto.post_toot('Hello World!', message.attachments)

if (toot) {
    message.reply('toot sent successfully!')
}
else {
    message.reply('toot could not be sent (longer than 500 characters? unknown erorr?)')
}

// OPTION TWO
masto.post_toot('Hello World!', message.attachments).then ( success => {
        if (success) {
            message.reply('toot sent successfully!')
        }
        else {
            message.reply('toot could not be sent (longer than 500 characters? unknown erorr?)')
        }
    }
)

Access Token

You will need your access token which can be found at:

Preferences --> Development --> New application --> Submit --> Copy Access Token

Known Issues

You MAY need to change the updateMedia function of Mastodon to the v2 API. Depends on the user. Instructions to come eventually.
Versions of tootcord less than 0.1.4 may have an issue with a blank FS package interfering with Node.JS built in FS
