Fedi Auth

A basic fediverse authentication library for Nim

Usage

Please see tests/login.nim for a working example

let client = newFediClient()
client.instance = "your-home-instance.com"
client.name = "MyReallyCoolApp"
let token = client.getToken()
if client.verify(): echo "Verified!"

You can then use this library to send your own HttpClient requests with the Authorization header:

let c = newHttpClient()
c.headers = newHttpHeaders({
  "Authorization": client.tokenStr
})

client.tokenStr is a procedure that simply returns

Bearer YOURTOKEN

Testing

This library has been tested with GoToSocial, Mastodon, Pleroma, Akkoma and Rebased. It should, in theory, work with any fediverse instance that implements MastoAPI endpoints for authentication
