twet

twet

twet is a simple client in Go for twtxt -- the decentralised, minimalist microblogging service for hackers.

Please see the TODO.

Configuration

twet looks for config.yaml in the following directories. Example configuration in config.yaml.example.

  $XDG_BASE_DIR/config/twet
  $HOME/config/twet
  $HOME/Library/Application Support/twet
  $HOME/.twet

Or you can set a directory with twet -dir /some/dir.

A cache file will be stored next to the config file.

If you want to read your own tweets, you should follow yourself. The twturl above is used for highlighting mentions, and for revealing who you are in the HTTP User-Agent when fetching feeds.

TODO?

• cli/http: a "follow" command should probably resolve 301s (cache-control or not?)
• cache: behaviour when adding/removing following
• following: require unique URL?
• ...
