━━━━━━━━━ PYXIS Andinus ━━━━━━━━━ Table of Contents ───────────────── 1 Demo .. 1.1 Screenshots 2 Documentation .. 2.1 Commands .. 2.2 Examples .. 2.3 Configuration 3 Installation .. 3.1 Dependencies Pyxis is a simple twtxt client. [twtxt] is a decentralised, minimalist microblogging service for hackers. • Website: [https://andinus.nand.sh/pyxis] • Source: [https://git.tilde.institute/andinus/pyxis] • Mirror: [https://github.com/andinus/pyxis] [twtxt] https://github.com/buckket/twtxt 1 Demo ══════ 1.1 Screenshots ─────────────── • timeline [2020-08-30 Sun] [https://andinus.nand.sh/static/pyxis/2020-08-30_timeline.png] 2 Documentation ═══════════════ The feeds are saved in `$XDG_DATA_HOME/pyxis', if it's not defined then `$HOME/.local/share/pyxis' is used. Feeds are configured in `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/pyxis.pl' or `$HOME/.config/pyxis.pl'. 2.1 Commands ──────────── 2.1.1 fetch ╌╌╌╌╌╌╌╌╌╌╌ fetch will fetch all the latest feeds from config file. You can use Pyxis without this feature by fetching the files yourself manually to data directory. 2.1.2 timeline ╌╌╌╌╌╌╌╌╌╌╌╌╌╌ timeline will print your timeline from all the feeds. You can also pass an optional argument to load custom feeds. For example, you can pass multiple feeds like `pyxis timeline f1 f2', it'll load both `f1' & `f2'. If you pass an invalid feed then it prints a warning & goes to the next one. 2.2 Examples ──────────── ┌──── │ pyxis fetch # fetch all feeds │ │ # dispay emacs & perl feeds (if available) │ pyxis timeline emacs perl │ │ pyxis timeline # display all feeds └──── 2.3 Configuration ───────────────── There is an example config file under `share/config.pl', move it to config directory & rename to `pyxis.pl'. ┌──── │ cp share/config.pl $HOME/.config/pyxis.pl └──── *Warning*: Pyxis will evaluate the configuration file, which means an attacker can use it to run malicious code. *Note*: They could always add malicious code to `.profile' & do harm. Just thought I should put the warning. ┌──── │ #!/usr/bin/perl │ │ use strict; │ use warnings; │ │ my %feeds = ( │ andinus => "https://andinus.nand.sh/static/twtxt", │ ); │ │ sub get_feeds { return %feeds; } │ │ 1; └──── Add your feeds to `%feeds' hash like shown above. You can remove those 2 `use' lines but it's good if you keep them. 3 Installation ══════════════ Install these dependencies from CPAN. Then just clone the repository, copy the config & run pyxis! 3.1 Dependencies ──────────────── • Getopt::Long is required only for options. • [HTTP::Tiny] is only required if you use `fetch'. • Path::Tiny can be replaced with perl core. • Term::ANSIColor is just for good looks. • Time::Moment can be replaced with DateTime or you can just `sort' it directly. Sorting directly will mess up the order a bit but should be okay for most cases.
