Misc: Markers, reports¶
Markers¶
These functions allow you to interact with the timeline “last read” markers, to allow for persisting where the user was reading a timeline between sessions and clients / devices.
Reading¶
-
Mastodon.markers_get(timeline=['home'])[source]¶ Get the last-read-location markers for the specified timelines. Valid timelines are the same as in timeline()
Note that despite the singular name, timeline can be a list.
Returns a dict of read marker dicts, keyed by timeline name.
Added: Mastodon v3.0.0, last changed: Mastodon v3.0.0
Writing¶
-
Mastodon.markers_set(timelines, last_read_ids)[source]¶ Set the “last read” marker(s) for the given timeline(s) to the given id(s)
Note that if you give an invalid timeline name, this will silently do nothing.
Returns a dict with the updated read marker dicts, keyed by timeline name.
Added: Mastodon v3.0.0, last changed: Mastodon v3.0.0
Reports¶
Reading¶
In Mastodon versions before 2.5.0 this function allowed for the retrieval of reports filed by the logged in user. It has since been removed.
Writing¶
This function allows you to report a user to the instance moderators as well as to the users home instance.
-
Mastodon.report(account_id, status_ids=None, comment=None, forward=False, category=None, rule_ids=None)[source]¶ Report statuses to the instances administrators.
Accepts a list of toot IDs associated with the report, and a comment.
Starting with Mastodon 3.5.0, you can also pass a category (one out of “spam”, “violation” or “other”) and rule_ids (a list of rule IDs corresponding to the rules returned by the instance() API).
Set forward to True to forward a report of a remote user to that users instance as well as sending it to the instance local administrators.
Returns a report dict.
Added: Mastodon v1.1.0, last changed: Mastodon v3.5.0
