Install TIL

$ pip install til

Then start adding things that you learn:

$ til new "How to parse yaml in Python"
Content:
Just use ruamel.yaml
pip install ruamel.yaml
^C

Store your TILs wherever you want using TIL plugins:

• YAML: Write to a yaml file
• ...more to come...

Copy .til.toml.default to your home directory as .til.toml and add more plugins or change their configuration. As an example by default TIL uses YAML plugin to store entries in til.yaml file in your home directory, this is configurable.

Simon Willison's TIL Page was main inspiration to be able to create something similar with minimal extra effort.

Planned features:

• Initial implementation
• YAML plugin as POC
• CI / CD for publishing to pypi with releases
• some tests
• Other tools to install
  • MacOS - brew
  • Debian/Ubuntu - apt (snap packages?)
• More plugins
  • POST to endpoint
  • Twitter
  • Email?
• tags support (e.g. Python, js, k8s, devops, science, etc.)
• Search tils by
  • keyword
  • tags
