Running toot tests

Mastodon

Clone mastodon repo and check out the tag you want to test:

git clone https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon
cd mastodon
git checkout v4.2.8

Set up the required Ruby version using ASDF. The required version is listed in .ruby-version.

asdf install ruby 3.2.3
asdf local ruby 3.2.3

Install and set up database:

bundle install
yarn install
rails db:setup

Patch code so users are auto-approved:

curl https://paste.sr.ht/blob/7c6e08bbacf3da05366b3496b3f24dd03d60bd6d | git am

Open registrations:

bin/tootctl settings registration open

Install foreman to run the thing:

gem install foreman

Start the server:

foreman start

The server should now be live at: http://localhost:3000/

You can view any emails sent by Mastodon at: http://localhost:3000/letter_opener/

Sharkey

Testing toot on Sharkey

Requires:

• postgresql
• redis
• node + pnpm

git clone https://activitypub.software/TransFem-org/Sharkey.git
cd Sharkey
git submodule update --init

cp .config/example.yml .config/default.yml
vim .config/default.yml
    # Edit these keys:
    # * db - put in your database credentials
    # * setupPassword - set any password, we'll use "toot"

createdb sharkey
pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
pnpm build
pnpm migrate
pnpm dev

Now sharkey should be started. Visit localhost:3000 and create an admin account using setupPassword defined in the config file.
