mrchimp / chimpcom-python

A command line in a website in a command line

Chimpcom CLI

So there's a website that looks like a command line. So what else do we need? Why a way to access the website from your command line. Of course.

Setup

1. Copy main.py to somewhere on your $PATH. E.g.

   $ cp main.py /usr/local/bin/chimpcom

2. Get a token from Chimpcom

   # Note: Run this on deviouschimp.co.uk not in your terminal!
   $ token --create some_token_name

3. Enter your token.

   $ chimpcom token
   # ...then follow the instructions

4. You shouldn't have to enter your token again.

5. You might want to alias chimpcom with your username. E.g.

   alias chimpcom="chimpcom --username=AzureDiamond"
