This is a command-line tool using python that you can use to turbocharge your moderation list authoring power.
- Search for users, output them to a space-delimited text file
- Feed in a post, output liking users to a space-delimited text file
- Take a newline separated list of user DIDs (any information after the DID is discarded) and add them to a moderation list. Can be a new or existing list.
- List all your moderation lists.
Have Python (3.6+).
pip install git+https://github.com/struthiocamelus/bskymodlist
The easiest and most secure way to configure this command line tool is to
create the ~/.config/bskymodlist.json
credentials file like so:
mkdir -p ~/.config # Create `.config` directory in home directory if it doesn't exist
echo "{
\"atproto_username\": \"your-username\"
\"atproto_app_password\": \"your-app-password\"
}" > ~/.config/bskymodlist.json # Create empty configuration file.
Irrespective of your OS or POSIX environment, this CLI will look for your configuration file there. If you don't like that, you're welcome to use environment variables (not secure) or input your app password securely on the command line every time (secure, but troublesome).
Edit the file:
atproto_username
: Your bsky username. Mine is@ostrich.bsky.social
.- Environment variable fallback:
ATPROTO_USERNAME
- Environment variable fallback:
atproto_app_password
: Your app password. Generate one here: https://bsky.app/settings/app-passwords- Environment variable fallback:
ATPROTO_APP_PASSWORD
- IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED TO PUT PASSWORDS IN PLAIN TEXT IN ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
- Environment variable fallback:
bskymodlist search "Nazi MRA" > people-i-would-rather-not-interact-with.txt
bskymodlist all-likes "{link to racist post}" >> people-i-would-rather-not-interact-with.txt
bskymodlist --list-name "Outcasts" \
--list-description "People I would rather not interact with" \
people-i-would-rather-not-interact-with.txt
