Backup Mastodon toots/pouets to MongoDB
This flow saves your toots to a MongoDB instance. This is done by using the madonctl utility. Just configure the utility like you would do normally and put the binary in a place Node-RED can call via exec node. You also need to provide the Yaml configuration file since it's needed by the command line used in the exec node.
I chose /data/bin/ because /data is the directory the Dockerized Node-RED uses as a volume/persistent storage.
id of the toot is used as _id key
