# display-mastodon-js

Display the last Mastodon message of a certain account

This is a very basic script to display the last message of a certain

Mastodon account within a web page, including links and attachments.

No authentication is required because publicly available messages

are displayed only.

Note: There are no plans to write a Mastodon client.

## Prerequisites

* jQuery is required.

* a Mastodon account

## Installation

1. Copy `mastodon.js` out of the sub-directory `js` to your web server.

2. Edit `mastodon.js` and set up the server and the account:

   * `mastodon_server`: name of the Mastodon server without `https://`,

     for example `mastodon.social`

   * `mastodon_account`: the account, a longish number

3. Include into your HTML page:

    ```HTML

    

    


    

    


      msgid:

      

    

    ```


    Adjust `src="mastodon.js"` to the path where the script file is to be found

    in your environment.

## Usage

Every minute the script fetches the last message and displays it.
