#API#HTTP#IT

Trying to come up with my own little self-hosted #http #authentication #daemon to work with #nginx' "authentication request" facility ... first step done! 🥳

Now I have a subset of HTTP 1.x implemented in #C, together with a dummy handler showing nothing but a static hello-world root document.

I know it's kind of stubborn doing that in C, but hey, #coding it is great fun 🙈

Should you ever run across an article that says you don't need a VPN because most every website use HTTPS, be aware that you can not see the encryption, or the lack of it, in mobile apps. Thus, things like this happen - Apple did not bother to upgrade their own software from HTTP to HTTPS.

Mastodon-Client-API

Auch wenn sich im #Fediverse viel um #ActivityPub dreht und hier durchaus auch eine #Client-Schnittstelle skizziert ist, nutzt #Mastodon eine eigene Client-API, die (zumindest teilweise) auch von anderer fediversaler Serversoftware unterstützt wird (z.B. #Friendica, #Firefish, #Mammuthus).

Diese #API (application programming interface, eine #Schnittstelle zur #Programmierung von Anwendungen) dient Apps und Clients dazu, entsprechende Funktionen auf einer #Instanz durchzuführen. Diese API ermöglicht die Entwicklung von Apps wie #Tusky, #Fedilab & Co.

Man kann diese API auch nutzen, um Konten etwa (teil)automatisiert zu betreiben.

Oder Statistiken zu sammeln... oder... oder... ;-)

Die API ist soweit öffentlich dokumentiert und steht frei zur Verfügung.

Allgemeine Dokumentation zu #Mastodon (auf Englisch):
https://docs.joinmastodon.org/

"Getting started with the API":
https://docs.joinmastodon.org/client/intro/

Wer mit dem Gedanken spielt, die API zu nutzen, sollte sich mit #HTTP, #JSON & Co. anfreunden können. Und Englischkenntnisse sind in diesem Bereich grundsätzlich von Vorteil...
