This code gets all peers from mastodon.social. Goal is to collect maximum number of alive fediverse's servers and then query their API to obtain their registered users (if their API provide such information). At the end it post the results to host server bot account.

Fediverse Stats

This code gets all peers from mastodon.social. Goal is to collect maximum number of alive fediverse's servers and then query their API to obtain their registered users (if their API provide such information). At the end it post the results to host server bot account.

Dependencies

  • Python 3
  • Postgresql server
  • Mastodon running server.

Usage:

Within Python Virtual Environment:

  1. Run pip install -r requirements.txt to install needed libraries.

  2. Run python fetchservers.py to add servers to alive servers database.

  3. Run python fediverse.py to query world alive servers API. It gets data from server's nodeinfo.

  4. Use your favourite scheduling method to set python fediverse.py to run twice daily, python fetchservers.py one time daily, python fediquery.py to run every minute and `python uptime.py' every minute to publish best fediverse uptime.
