GnuSocialShell

GnuSocialShell is a simple, userful, text-based GnuSocial client write in C by DalmeGNU to all UNIX-like Operating Systems

How to compile GnuSocialShell

Dependencies

  • libcurl-dev

Optional

  • libreadline-dev (for TAB-autocompletion)

Compile

Before you start the compilation process please make sure you have the following tools installed on your system: gcc, autotools (autoconf & automake), gnulib.

  $ ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr/local
  $ make

Execute

  $ ./gnusocialshell -c /path/to/config/file

How to make a Configuration File

First we have to open the file "config" using nano (or another text editor)

  $ nano config

We will get something like:

  #Default Config file for GnuSocialShell
  protocol=;
  user=;
  server=;
  #Uncomment this line to enable password store
  #password=;

Now we have to complete protocol, user, server and if we want password.

  • Protocol should always be "https", but "http" will work
  • User should be our screen name, so if my account is @account@mynode.com, user should be "account"
  • Server should be our node URL, so "mynode.com"
  • If we want we can store our password in the config file but we have to uncomment the line. If not GnuSocialShell will ask we the password.

Example

  #Default Config file for GnuSocialShell
  protocol=https;
  user=account;
  server=mynode.com;
  #Uncomment this line to enable password store
  password=123mypassword;
