# Elefren ## A Wrapper for the Mastodon API. [![Build Status](https://github.com/dscottboggs/elefren/actions/workflows/rust.yml/badge.svg)](https://travis-ci.org/pwoolcoc/elefren) [Documentation](https://docs.rs/elefren/) A wrapper around the [API](https://github.com/tootsuite/documentation/blob/master/docs/Using-the-API/API.md#tag) for [Mastodon](https://botsin.space/) ## Installation To add `elefren` to your project, add the following to the `[dependencies]` section of your `Cargo.toml` ```toml elefren = "0.23" ``` Alternatively, run the following command: ~~~console $ cargo add elefren ~~~ ## Example In your `Cargo.toml`, make sure you enable the `toml` feature: ```toml [dependencies] elefren = { version = "0.22", features = ["toml"] } ``` ```rust,no_run // src/main.rs use std::error::Error; use elefren::prelude::*; use elefren::helpers::toml; // requires `features = ["toml"]` use elefren::helpers::cli; fn main() -> Result<(), Box> { let mastodon = if let Ok(data) = toml::from_file("mastodon-data.toml") { Mastodon::from(data) } else { register()? }; let you = mastodon.verify_credentials()?; println!("{:#?}", you); Ok(()) } fn register() -> Result> { let registration = Registration::new("https://botsin.space") .client_name("elefren-examples") .build()?; let mastodon = cli::authenticate(registration)?; // Save app data for using on the next run. toml::to_file(&*mastodon, "mastodon-data.toml")?; Ok(mastodon) } ``` It also supports the [Streaming API](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/api/streaming): ```rust,no_run use elefren::prelude::*; use elefren::entities::event::Event; use std::error::Error; fn main() -> Result<(), Box> { let data = Data { base: "".into(), client_id: "".into(), client_secret: "".into(), redirect: "".into(), token: "".into(), }; let client = Mastodon::from(data); for event in client.streaming_user()? { match event { Event::Update(ref status) => { /* .. */ }, Event::Notification(ref notification) => { /* .. */ }, Event::Delete(ref id) => { /* .. */ }, Event::FiltersChanged => { /* .. */ }, } } Ok(()) } ```
