   that would require me to know what programming is, unfortunately.
   
   That said, with the way mastodon.py deals with fetching statuses (20 item "pages" all the time every time (unless theres a way to reduce the size or something i haven't seen)), comparing it to like the 40 newest lines in the corpus should hopefully be enough to reduce un-necessary fetches to at most like 2 in the worst case scenario. fwiw i'm only planning to update it like once a month and im def gonna do it manually least i fucked something up lol

   @Moon @raccoon easy couple liner in python utilizing the mastodon.py library

   script.py:

   !/usr/bin/env python3 import os import sys import toml from mastodon import Mastodon basepath = os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)) settings = toml.load(os.path.join(basepath,'settings.toml')) mastodon = Mastodon( access_token = os.path.join(basepath,'usercred.secret'), api_base_url = settings.get("mastodon_url") ) media = mastodon.media_post("image.png") mastodon.status_post("", None, media_ids=[media], sensitive=False, visibility='public')

   settings.toml:

   mastodon_url="" mastodon_user=""

   usercred.secret is just your bot's token generated from https://tools.splat.soy/pleroma-access-token/

   then you can just chmod a+x script.py and run ./script.py $filename

   this will require that you have a library of images tho not pulling them directly

   @feditips mastodon.py can also easily do this since it is built into mastodon. It’s just an option of a normal post, nothing magical.

   using mastodon.py to access firefish because it's own API is a horror beyond my comprehension :woozy_2x:

   Did you really think I got that number?

   Nah but I'm really thinking about making a quick and dirty twilio <--> mastodon.py conduit

   I was looking through the API docs for mastodon.py last night, and now I'm fantasizing about writing my own perfect half-finished mastodon client in python.
