HackerNews

Welcome to the unofficial Hacker News CLI gem!

This CLI Gem scrapes the Hacker News website: https://news.ycombinator.com/

Users have the option of viewing the latest news headlines or seeing the job postings listed on the Hacker News website.

Installation

Gem is not published to RubyGems, yet.

Usage

To use this gem follow the installation instructions above. The original code is a base for parsing the data from any website that lists news headlines or job postings. Feel free to edit according to your needs.

To run the CLI, type in ./bin/hacker_news, which will give you instructions to type 'news' for the latest news headlines, 'jobs' for the latest job postings.

When you are finished reviewing the lists, type 'exit' to exit the CLI.

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
