|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
To run the program, type
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
$ rtv --help
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Controls
|
||||
|
||||
Move the cursor using either the arrow keys or *Vim* style movement
|
||||
|
||||
- Press ``up`` and ``down`` to scroll through submissions
|
||||
- Press ``right`` to view the selected submission and ``left`` to return
|
||||
- Press ``space`` to expand/collapse comments
|
||||
- Press ``u`` to login
|
||||
- Press ``?`` to open the help screen
|
||||
|
||||
Press ``/`` to open the navigation prompt, where you can type things like
|
||||
|
||||
- ``/front``
|
||||
- ``/r/commandprompt+linuxmasterrace``
|
||||
- ``/r/programming/controversial-week``
|
||||
- ``/u/me``
|
||||
- ``/u/multi-mod/m/art``
|
||||
- ``/domain/github.com``
|
||||
|
||||
See [CONTROLS](https://github.com/michael-lazar/rtv/blob/master/CONTROLS.rst) for the full list of commands
|
||||
|
||||
## Settings
|
||||
|
||||
### Configuration File
|
||||
|
||||
Configuration files are stored in the ``{HOME}/.config/rtv/`` directory
|
||||
|
||||
See [rtv.cfg](https://github.com/michael-lazar/rtv/blob/master/rtv/templates/rtv.cfg) for the full list of configurable options. You can clone this file into your home directory by running
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ rtv --copy-config
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Viewing Media Links
|
||||
|
||||
You can use [mailcap](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_type#Mailcap) to configure how RTV will open different types of links
|
||||
|
||||
<p align="center">
|
||||
<img alt="title image" src="resources/mailcap.gif"/>
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
A mailcap file allows you to associate different MIME media types, like ``image/jpeg`` or ``video/mp4``, with shell commands. This feature is disabled by default because it takes a a few extra steps to configure. To get started, copy the default mailcap template to your home directory.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
$ rtv --copy-mailcap
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This template contains examples for common MIME types that work with popular reddit websites like *imgur*, *youtube*, and *gfycat*. Open the mailcap template and follow the [instructions](https://github.com/michael-lazar/rtv/blob/master/rtv/templates/mailcap) listed inside.
|
||||
|
||||
Once you've setup your mailcap file, enable it by launching rtv with the ``rtv --enable-media`` flag (or set it in your **rtv.cfg**)
|
||||
|
||||
### Environment Variables
|
||||
|
||||
The default programs that RTV interacts with can be configured through environment variables
|
||||
|
||||
<dl>
|
||||
<dt>$RTV_EDITOR</dt>
|
||||
<dd>A program used to compose text submissions and comments, e.g. <strong>vim</strong>, <strong>emacs</strong>, <strong>gedit</strong>
|
||||
<br/> <em>If not specified, will fallback to $VISUAL and $EDITOR in that order.</em></dd>
|
||||
|
||||
<dt>$RTV_BROWSER</dt>
|
||||
<dd>A program used to open links to external websites, e.g. <strong>firefox</strong>, <strong>google-chrome</strong>, <strong>w3m</strong>, <strong>lynx</strong>, <strong>elinks</strong>
|
||||
<br/> <em>If not specified, will fallback to $BROWSER, or try to intelligently choose a browser supported by your system.</em></dd>
|
||||
|
||||
<dt>$RTV_URLVIEWER</dt>
|
||||
<dd>A tool used to extract hyperlinks from blocks of text, e.g.<a href=https://github.com/sigpipe/urlview>urlview</a>, <a href=https://github.com/firecat53/urlscan>urlscan</a>
|
||||
<br/> <em>If not specified, will fallback to urlview if it is installed.</em></dd>
|
||||
</dl>
|
||||
|
||||
### Copying to the Clipboard
|
||||
RTV supports copying submission links to the OS clipboard.
|
||||
On macOS this is supported out of the box.
|
||||
On Linux systems you will need to install either [xsel](http://www.vergenet.net/~conrad/software/xsel/) or [xclip](https://sourceforge.net/projects/xclip/).
|
||||
|
||||
## FAQ

**Why do I see garbled text like** ``M-b~@M-"`` **or** ``^@`` **?**
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||

|
||||

|
||||
> 3. Try [setting the LOCALE to utf-8](https://perlgeek.de/en/article/set-up-a-clean-utf8-environment)
|

|
||||
you may experience SSL errors or other package incompatibilities. The

|
||||
|
||||
Why do I see garbled text like ``M-b~@M-"`` or ``^@``?
|
||||
This type of text usually shows up when python is unable to render
|
||||
unicode properly.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Try starting RTV in ascii-only mode with ``rtv --ascii``
|
||||
2. Make sure that the terminal/font that you're using supports unicode
|
||||
3. Try `setting the LOCALE to utf-8 <https://perlgeek.de/en/article/set-up-a-clean-utf8-environment>`_

|
||||
|
||||
How do I run the code directly from the repository?
|
||||
This project is structured to be run as a python *module*. This means that

you need to launch it using python's ``-m`` flag. See the example below, which
