get_timeline_public function

Get the public timeline

Query the instance for the public timeline

get_timeline_public(
  local = FALSE,
  remote = FALSE,
  only_media = FALSE,
  max_id,
  since_id,
  min_id,
  limit = 20L,
  instance = NULL,
  token = NULL,
  anonymous = FALSE,
  parse = TRUE,
  retryonratelimit = TRUE,
  verbose = TRUE
)

Arguments

• local: logical, Show only local statuses?
• remote: logical, Show only remote statuses?
• only_media: logical, Show only statuses with media attached?
• max_id: character or POSIXct (date time), Return results older than this id
• since_id: character or POSIXct (date time), Return results newer than this id
• min_id: character or POSIXct (date time), Return results immediately newer than this id
• limit: integer, Maximum number of results to return
• instance: character, the server name of the instance where the status is located. If NULL, the same instance used to obtain the token is used.
• token: user bearer token (read from file by default)
• anonymous: some API calls do not need a token. Setting anonymous to TRUE allows to make an anonymous call if possible.
• parse: logical, if TRUE, the default, returns a tibble. Use FALSE to return the "raw" list corresponding to the JSON returned from the Mastodon API.
• retryonratelimit: If TRUE, and a rate limit is exhausted, will wait until it refreshes. Most Mastodon rate limits refresh every 5 minutes. If FALSE, and the rate limit is exceeded, the function will terminate early with a warning; you'll still get back all results received up to that point.
• verbose: logical whether to display messages

Returns

statuses

Details

max_id, since_id, and min_id can either be character or POSIXct (date time). If it is POSXIct, it will be converted to the so-called snowflake ID.
