Apollo

Apollo is a handy console-based way of organizing all of your media titles and keeping track of what you are currently watching, reading, and playing. It started out as a project for my own usage, but I have since decided to put it out there on GitHub for all to enjoy.

Installation

This whole project was done using Golang.

Once Go is installed properly, fetch this repository.

go get github.com/finiks/apollo

Next, move to the repository source of the project and compile the application.

cd $GOPATH/src/github/finiks/apollo
go install

Lastly, you can run Apollo through its binary file.

cd $GOPATH/bin
./apollo

At the first launch, configuration.json and database.json will be created and stored in ~/.config/apollo/.
