Note: You can pass in local or remote datafiles in the markdown, yaml or csv formats instead of using the built-in / pre-configured datafiles. Example:
$ rubyconf https://github.com/planetruby/calendar/raw/master/_data/conferences2023.yml
# - or -
$ rubyconf conferences2023.yml # note: assumes a saved (local) copy in the working dir (./)
$ pycon https://github.com/python-organizers/conferences/raw/master/2023.csv
# - or
$ pycon 2023.csv # note: assumes a saved (local) copy in the working dir (./)
$ kickoff https://github.com/footballbook/calendar/raw/master/README.md
# - or -
$ kickoff README.md # note: assumes a saved (local) copy in the working dir (./)
Use the whatson
command line tool as a "generic catch-all" to print any type of event.
Example:
$ whatson https://github.com/planetruby/calendar/raw/master/_data/conferences2023.yml \
https://github.com/python-organizers/conferences/raw/master/2023.csv
Note: whatson
is pre-configured (that is, if you do not pass along any datafiles)
to print ongoing and upcoming ruby and python conferences.
For easy (re)use you can write all datafiles in a text file and pass along the
text file. Example - conf.txt
:
########################################
# conf.txt - What's On Datafiles
https://github.com/planetruby/calendar/raw/master/_data/conferences2023.yml
https://github.com/python-organizers/conferences/raw/master/2023.csv
And pass along to whatson
. Example:
$ whatson conf.txt
Resulting back in 2020:
reading >conf.txt<...
reading >https://github.com/planetruby/calendar/raw/master/_data/conferences2020.yml<...
reading >https://github.com/python-organizers/conferences/raw/master/2020.csv<...
