p

This is a pump.io version of the command line utility t.

Troubleshooting

This is still a very new program so there are probably many bugs however if you get any of the following try the solutions first as they're known about:

Modules missing

If you get something which looks like:

Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "./p", line 27, in <module>
 from pypump import WebPump, Client, JSONStore
ImportError: No module named pypump

That's because you don't have the modules you need to, please run:

$ virtualenv . && . bin/activate
$ pip install -r requirements.txt

(everytime you wish to use p you will have to do . bin/activate this is until you have the dependencies installed on your system).

To update dependencies, run:

$ pip install -U -r requirements.txt

Configure

Add new account

To add a new pump.io account to p you need to authorize it. You refer to your account using its webfinger:

$ p authorize <webfinger>

example:

$ p authorize user@server.tld

List accounts

To list all the authorized accounts:

$ p accounts

Switching between accounts

To switch between multiple accounts you can use

$ p set active <webfinger>

example:

$ p set active other-user@other-server.tld

Files

Configuration files are stored in XDG_CONFIG_HOME/p or ~/.config/p

Usage

Type p --help to list the available commands. To get more information you can do:

$ p <subcommand> --help

Posting content

Post a note by using:

$ p post note "I'm posting a note via the command line ^_^"

Post an image:

Titles of notes and images can be set with the option --title <string>.

$ p post image /path/to/my_cool_image.png --title "My cool image.."

Recipients can be set with the options --to and --cc and can be:

• a webfinger (user@server.tld)
• the name of a user created list (see $ p lists)
• followers or public

(if no recipients are set cc=followers is used by default)

$ p post note "It's too early" --title "Yaawn" --to kabniel@microca.st --cc followers

$ p whois <webfinger>

If the user you want is on the same server you can just put their username.
