pfxposter

A PixelFed to Mastodon and Twitter crossposter that is not written as intended. Due to the unknown error on pixelfed.social instance, Atom feeds are used for checking new posts.

In order to post PixelFed entries to Twitter, you will need a Mastodon-Twitter crossposter, you may find them on web.

Installation

python3 -m pip install pfxposter

Using virtual enviroment is strongly recommended, for the reason that the requests library of the distro vendor may be overrided after the installation.

Usage

First, create a Mastodon application from the settings of your Mastodon instance. You can create it under "Development" menu in settings. When you have created your app, Mastodon will give you an access token. Write the token to your configurion file.

The configuration file is located at ~/.pfxposter.

updated = 2020-08-21 07:56:48+00:00

[mastodon]
mastodon_url = "https://oyd.social"
access_token = "your_access_token_here"

[pixelfed]
pixelfed_url = "https://pixelfed.social"
username = "ooguz"

pfxposter reads the configuration file, and runs frequently. Installation from pip should add a crontab entry, you can check it with the command:

crontab -l

From Mastodon to Twitter, you will need another cross-poster, there are some links below:
