`gondole` is a [Go](https://golang.org/) library to access the Mastondon [REST API](http://www.rubydoc.info/gems/mastodon-api/Mastodon/REST/API).

**Work in progress, still incomplete**

## Installation

Like many Go-based tools, installation is very easy
  
    go get github.com/keltia/gondole

  or
  
    git clone https://github.com/keltia/gondole
    go install ./cmd/...

The library is fetched, compiled and installed in whichever directory is specified by `$GOPATH`.  The `atlas` binary will also be installed. 

## Name

Trying to define a name close to *Mastodon*, one could come up with *godon* and in French, *gondole* (the small boats in Venice) is easy to take.
