Since it’s a MediaWiki page you can get Markdown source of the page with appending action=raw query to the URL.

Glad it worked. I didn’t know the endpoint before reading your post.

As you said, GET /resolove_object (https://join-lemmy.org/api/interfaces/ResolveObject.html) may work:

$ post_id=9589178
$ curl 'https://lemm.ee/api/v3/resolve_object?q=https%3A%2F%2Fprogramming.dev%2Fpost%2F${post_id}' | jq .post.post.id
22873872
$ curl 'https://lemm.ee/api/v3/post?id=22873872' | jq '.post_view.post | [.id, .name]'
[
  22873872,
  "How do you get the url or id of the same post on a different instance?"
]

I’m not sure what “lemmy_server api_tests context” does mean, but

curl 'https://<instance>/api/v3/community?name=lemmydev' | jq .moderators

seems to work for me.

No problem! Thanks for moderating this community.

• https://data.lemmyverse.net/ for dataset
• https://fediverse.observer/ for API (see the bottom of the page)

listCommunities with sort=Hot and type_=Local would work. See:

• https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/blob/0.18.2/src/shared/components/home/home.tsx#L787-L797
• https://join-lemmy.org/api/classes/LemmyHttp.html#listCommunities

How about markPostAsRead?

I’d call getPersonDetails, getPost or getCommunity then check moderators attribute.

type_=All would work:

• https://join-lemmy.org/api/interfaces/GetComments.html#type_
• https://join-lemmy.org/api/types/ListingType.html

Can you share the reproducible requests/URLs?

it doesn’t appear that comments returned are sorted or grouped together in any way by default

Have you tried sort parameter?

Yes. See here.

I’d call GET /api/v3/comment/list?post_id=<post_id>&type_=All to get comments, then sort the comments with path attribute.

Hi! The first curl example doesn’t seem to work - it fetches comments but they are not relevant to https://lemmy.world/post/290602 :

> curl -H 'Accept: application/activity+json' "https://lemmy.world/api/v3/comment/list?limit=10&postId=290602" | jq -c '.comments[] | [.post.id, .comment.id, community.name]'
[484044,486431,"nostupidquestions"]
[455772,486976,"giftofgaming"]
...
[485477,486428,"outoftheloop"]
[484044,485717,"nostupidquestions"]

It seems that we need to set type_ parameter like this:

> curl -H 'Accept: application/activity+json' "https://lemmy.world/api/v3/comment/list?limit=10&post_id=290602&type_=All" | jq -c '.comments[] | [.post.id, .comment.id, community.
name]'
[290602,484328,"programmer_humor"]
[290602,374758,"programmer_humor"]
...
[290602,355277,"programmer_humor"]
[290602,345799,"programmer_humor"]

It seems OAuth2 hasn’t implemented yet. At this time, to get auth value, username and password are required:

# Python
url = 'https://<instance_name>/user/login'
data = {'username_or_email': username_or_email,
        'password': password}
response = requests.post(url, json=data)
json = response.json()
auth = json['jwt']

Since the endpoint recieves JSON then returns JSON, you may need to send following HTTP headers explicitly:

Content-Type: application/json
Accept: application/json
