Mastodon
========
Mastodon is a federated microblogging engine. An alternative implementation of the GNU Social project. Based on ActivityStreams, Webfinger, PubsubHubbub and Salmon.
**Current status of the project is early development. Documentation &co will be added later**
## Status
- GNU Social users can follow Mastodon users
- Mastodon users can follow GNU Social users
- Retweets, favourites, mentions, replies work in both directions
- Public pages for profiles and single statuses
- Sign up, login, forgotten passwords and changing password
- Mentions and URLs converted to links in statuses
- REST API, including home and mention timelines
- OAuth2 provider system for the API
- Upload header image for profile page
Missing:
- Media attachments (photos, videos)
- UI to post, reblog, favourite, follow and unfollow
- Deleting statuses, deletion propagation
- Streaming API
## Configuration
- `LOCAL_DOMAIN` should be the domain/hostname of your instance. This is **absolutely required** as it is used for generating unique IDs for everything federation-related
- `LOCAL_HTTPS` set it to `true` if HTTPS works on your website. This is used to generate canonical URLs, which is also important when generating and parsing federation-related IDs
- `HUB_URL` should be the URL of the PubsubHubbub service that your instance is going to use. By default it is the open service of Superfeedr
## Requirements
- PostgreSQL
- Redis
## Running with Docker and Docker-Compose
The project now includes a Dockerfile and a docker-compose.yml. You need to turn .env.production sample into .env.production with all the variables set before you can:
docker-compose build
And finally
docker-compose up
As usual, the first thing you would need to do would be to run migrations:
docker-compose run web rake db:migrate
