It is possible to pipe status text into `toot post`, for example:

.. code-block::

    echo "Text to post" | toot post
    cat mypost.txt | toot post


Authentication
--------------

Before tooting, you need to login to a Mastodon instance.

.. code-block::

    toot login

You will be redirected to your Mastodon instance to log in and authorize toot to access your account, and will be given an **authorization code** in return which you need to enter to log in.

If you don't use two factor authentication you can also log in directly from the command line:

.. code-block::

    toot login_cli

You will be asked to chose an instance and enter your credentials.

The application and user access tokens will be saved in the configuration file located at ``~/.config/toot/instances/config.json``.

It's possible to be logged into **multiple accounts** at the same time. Just repeat the above process for another instance. You can see all logged in accounts by running ``toot auth``. The currently active account will have an **ACTIVE** flag next to it.

To switch accounts, use ``toot activate``. Alternatively, most commands accept a ``--using`` option which can be used to specify the account you wish to use just that one time.

Finally you can logout from an account by using ``toot logout``. This will remove the stored access tokens for that account.
