Posting about your posting pipeline. I did this previously with <a rel="noopener" target="_blank" href="/posts/2021-06-25-Blog2Twitter-P1.html">Twitter</a>. </p> + +<h2>the elephant in the room</h2> + +<p>mastodon.social does not support any formatting in the status posts. +Yes, there are other instances which have patches to enable features such as markdown formatting, but there is no upstream support.</p> + +<h2>time to code</h2> + +<p>My website is built using a really simple static site generator I wrote in Python. +Therefore, each post is self-contained in a Markdown file with the necessary metadata.</p> + +<p>I am going to specify the path to the blog post, parse it and then publish it.</p> + +<p>I initially planned on having a command line parser and some more flags.</p> + +<h3>interacting with mastodon</h3> + +<p>I ended up using mastodon.py rather than crafting requests by hand. Each status<em>post/toot call returns a status</em>id that can be then used as an in<em>reply</em>to parameter.</p> + +<p>For the code snippets, seeing that mastodon does not support native formatting, I am resorting to using ray-so.</p> + +<h3>reading markdown</h3> + +<p>I am using a bunch of regex hacks, and reading the blog post line by line. +Because there is no markdown support, I append all the links to the end of the toot. +For images, I upload them and attach them to the toot. +The initial toot is generated based off the title and the tags associated with the post.</p> +
