MastodonToTwitter | Mastodon < - > Twitter cross-poster

MastodonToTwitter is a Python library. MastodonToTwitter has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has build file available, it has a Permissive License and it has low support. You can download it from GitHub.

Requirements: Python 3.6 minimum, with two packages, python-twitter version 3.2 upwards and Mastodon.py version 1.0.2 upwards:. You can also use a virtual environment, if you don't use a container, but take care to adapt the paths to the Python binary in the SystemD service. For basic usage, execute from the project directory. and follow the on-screen prompts. The script stores your credentials in a bunch of files ending on .secret. The contents of these files let people access your twitter and Mastodon accounts, so do not share them around. There is also a mtt_status_associations.json file created. It stores which tweet corresponds to which toot, and is used to synchronize threads. You can delete it at any moment, but if you do, old threads will no longer be synced. More importantly, replies to old theads on the Twitter side will not be posted on Mastodon at all. To customize options, you can either modify directly the mtt/config.py file (best option if you want to tweak a few things and forget this), or create a mtt/user_config.py file and copy the configuration variables you want to change there (best option if you want to be able to update this using git pull and don't want to alter the core files).
