mastodon-api-proxy

A proxy to Mastodon API that adds a fake_email field to the Account object returned by verify_credentials.

Every other response, even Account responses from other endpoints, are left untouched.

Usage

Run the container. BACKEND_URL is expected to point to the real mastodon URL. DOMAIN is the email domain used to form fake_email, in the form of {acct}@{DOMAIN}, where acct is the acct field returned by Mastodon.

Optionally, MIN_AGE allows defining a minimum account age (time since the account was created, not the age of the person using the account). If defined, requests to verify_credentials for accounts below the minimum age will return 403 Forbidden.

So how do I use this with wiki.js?

On wiki.js:

• Use your usual mastodon url for Authorization Endpoint URL, e.g. https://your.instance/oauth/authorize
• Use your usual mastodon url for Token Endpoint URL, e.g. https://your.instance/oauth/token
• Use the URL of this thing for User info Endpoint URL, e.g. https://api-proxy.your.instance/api/v1/accounts/verify_credentials. It must be an https URL or mastodon will attempt to redirect it to https.
• As ID Claim, Display Name Claim and Email Claim use id, display_name and fake_email respectively. fake_email is what this proxy adds.

On your mastodon instance:

• Add the domain where this thing listens (e.g. api-proxy.your.instance) to the ALTERNATE_DOMAINS environment variable for mastodon-web.

And you're good to go!
