Nodeinfo Extensions¶

Akkoma currently implements version 2.0 and 2.1 of nodeinfo spec, but provides the following additional fields.

metadata¶

The spec leaves the content of metadata up to implementations and indeed Akkoma adds many fields here apart from the commonly found nodeName and nodeDescription fields.

accountActivationRequired¶

Whether or not users need to confirm their email before completing registration. (boolean)

Note

Not to be confused with account approval, where each registration needs to be manually approved by an admin. Account approval has no nodeinfo entry.

features¶

Array of strings denoting supported server features. E.g. a server supporting quote posts should include a "quote_posting" entry here.

A non-exhaustive list of possible features: - polls - quote_posting - editing - bubble_timeline - pleroma_emoji_reactions (Unicode emoji) - custom_emoji_reactions - akkoma_api - akkoma:machine_translation - mastodon_api - pleroma_api

federation¶
