Mastodon Bot?

Jump

  • Store the access token in an environment variable instead of a file. Not sure which language are you using but for my bot I have this Python code to retrieve the token which is stored in the MASTODON_TOKEN environment var.

     
        
TOKEN_ENVIRON_VAR = 'MASTODON_TOKEN'


def get_auth_token():
    '''Fetches the auth token from the env var.'''
    try:
        token = os.environ[TOKEN_ENVIRON_VAR].strip()
        if not token:
            raise ValueError()
        return token
    except Exception as e:
        logging.error('Unable to get the auth token for Mastodon')
        logging.error(e, exc_info=True)
        sys.exit(-1)
