This API is accessible without installing the server here: https://mastodon-stats.themimitoof.fr

Prerequisites

• NodeJS

Clone this repo and install all project dependencies:

npm install

Rename config.js.default to config.js and edit binding informations.

Finaly, start the server with npm start or with node index.js.

If you prefer execute the server in background with automatic reload (of crash), I recommend using pm2 or forever.
