Incompatibility with the Mastodon.py library?

[nicolasgallandpro]

When I try to send messages with the Mastodon.py library (version 2.0.1) to my Hollo 0.6.2 instance, the published messages are empty (content = ""). When I do it to a Mastodon account, it works fine.

(Thanks for your great work on hollo and fedify)

Looks like mastodon.py sends the create status as FormData unless there's a poll or media attachment, then it sends json. We currently only support JSON for the POST /api/v1/statuses endpoint. I suspect we'll need to support both json and formdata.

OK, thanks. For those who have the same issue, it can be bypassed by sending a POST request directly :
response = requests.post( url=f"{instance_url}/api/v1/statuses", headers={ "Authorization": f"Bearer {access_token}", "Content-Type": "application/json" }, json={ "status": "Hello, Hollo!" })
