Xeet

Terminal-based shitposting for chronically online devs who can't be bothered to open a browser. Post to X (formerly Twitter) without ever leaving your precious terminal. #TouchGrass

Installation

cargo install --path .

SPEED-RUN Setup (any%)

1. Get API keys from developer.twitter.com

   • Make a project/app, enable OAuth 1.0a
   • Set to "Read and Write" perms (IMPORTANT)
   • Grab API Key, API Secret, Access Token, and Access Token Secret

2. Create a global config file (works from ANY directory, no cap):

   # For MacOS/Linux enjoyers:
   mkdir -p ~/.config/xeet
   nano ~/.config/xeet/config.toml
   
   # For Windows NPCs:
   mkdir -p %APPDATA%\xeet
   notepad %APPDATA%\xeet\config.toml

3. Paste this in your config file and you're BASED:

   [credentials]
   consumer_key = "your_api_key"
   consumer_secret = "your_api_secret"
   access_token = "your_access_token"
   access_secret = "your_access_token_secret"

Usage (aka How to Main Character)

Basic shitposting:

xeet post -- "Hot take: semicolons in JavaScript are just spicy line breaks"

Schedule a post for later (touch grass in the meantime):

xeet post --schedule 30 -- "Just had a great idea while touching grass, semicolons in JavaScript are just spicy line breaks"

Or use the shorthand version:

xeet post -s 30 -- "I'm totally working and did not go out for a walk 30 minutes ago"

Scheduled posts run in the background, so your terminal remains free to use for other tasks!

If a scheduled post fails, you can check the logs:

xeet logs      # Shows the latest log
xeet logs -a   # Shows all logs

Need setup help? Type:

xeet setup

Pro Strats (Touch Grass Any% Speedrun)

God-tier Aliases

Add to your .bashrc or .zshrc:

# For maximum efficiency bruh
alias x="xeet post --"
alias xs="xeet post -s"  # Using shorthand for schedule
alias fr="xeet post -- 'fr fr no cap'"
alias npc="xeet post -- 'yesss true'"
alias npcrypto="xeet post -- 'gm!'"

Now you can post with:

x "This meeting could've been an email frfr"
xs 30 -- "Scheduled post 30 minutes from now"
fr
npc
