GitHub - mdowst/Lemmy-PowerShell: A PowerShell module for interacting with Lemmy

github.com

A PowerShell module for interacting with Lemmy. Contribute to mdowst/Lemmy-PowerShell development by creating an account on GitHub.

I have seen a lot of calls around Lemmy for more moderation tools. I have been working on Lemmy PowerShell module for a few weeks now, and I went ahead and released a preview version with multiple moderation tools now available. The module has the ability to perform the following tasks using a simple command line tool:

Search posts and comments
Remove a post
Remove a comment
Lock and unlock posts
Add and remove moderators
Create new posts and comments

You can get started now by installing the module through the PowerShell gallery.

Install-Module Lemmy-preview
Import-Module Lemmy-preview

If you are not familiar with PowerShell, I’ve include detailed instruction in the GitHub repo with lots of example. https://github.com/mdowst/Lemmy-PowerShell

If you run into any issues please let me know either here or by submitting an Issue to the repo.
