`madon` is a [Go](https://golang.org/) library to access the Mastondon REST API.

This implementation covers 100% of the current API, including the streaming API.

The [madonctl](https://github.com/McKael/madonctl) console client uses this library exhaustively.

## Installation

To install the library (Go >= v1.5 required):

    go get github.com/McKael/madon

For minimal compatibility with Go modules support (in Go v1.11), it is
recommended to use Go version 1.9+.

You can test it with my CLI tool:

    go get github.com/McKael/madonctl

## Usage

This section has not been written yet (PR welcome).

For now please check [godoc](https://godoc.org/github.com/McKael/madon) and
check the [madonctl](https://github.com/McKael/madonctl) project
implementation.

## History

This API implementation was initially submitted as a PR for gondole.

The repository is actually a fork of my gondole branch so that
history and credits are preserved.
