Crate webmention

webmention

Provides support for sending and receiving webmentions. Webmention is a W3C recommendation for notifying that a link from one URL to another was published.

In short: to receive webmentions you need to process POST requests with source and target on advertised endpoint URL. There are various ways to advertise your endpoint, the simplest of all is to place <link rel="webmention" href="endpoint_url"> inside of your document.

To send webmentions you need to discover endpoint and send a POST request with source and target payload.

CLI tool

There is a CLI tool available with support for sending webmentions, and (optionally) a simple endpoint based on Rocket.
