Getting credentials for the Mastodon API with Mastodon.py, step by step

Making a bot? Making a bot in Python? Making a bot in Python that uses the Mastodon API? If so, chances are you need to get some credentials. Here's how I did it!

(The following tutorial uses Python 2.7, but if you're using Python 3+ everything should work substantially the same.)

Mastodon.py authentication

I just started using it, but it looks like Mastodon.py is a pretty great library for working with the Mastodon API! However, all of the authentication examples use static files to store credentials, which I don't like—I'm afraid I'll accidentally push them to Github. I like to keep my authentication as close to the actual command that runs the program as possible, so usually I pass them on the command line to the script running my bot. To do this, I need to get the appropriate credentials on their own, as separate strings that I can cut and paste.
