Use

Basic usage example:

.. code-block:: python

import atoot import asyncio

async def mastodon_bot(): instance = "botsin.space" access_token = "YOUR_APPLICATION_ACCESS_TOKEN"

   client = await atoot.MastodonAPI.create(instance, access_token=access_token)
   resp = await client.verify_account_credentials()
   print(resp)
   await client.close()

asyncio.run(mastodon_bot())

Using client as a context manager, get 5 pages of home timeline and all notifications:

.. code-block:: python

async def mastodon_bot(): instance = "botsin.space" access_token = "YOUR_APPLICATION_ACCESS_TOKEN"

   async with atoot.client(instance, access_token=access_token) as c:
       home = await c.get_n_pages(c.home_timeline(limit=20), n=5)
       print("Home timeline:", home)

       notifs = await c.get_all(c.get_notifications())
       print("Notifications:", notifs)
