dronefly-cli 0.2.2

Dronefly command-line interface

Dronefly command-line client

The dronefly-cli command-line client will provide a standalone text user interface that can perform a usable subset of Dronefly Discord bot's capabilities, built solely with Dronefly core.

Installation with poetry

There are no releases of dronefly-cli yet. For now, this will get you started:

$ pip install git+https://github.com/dronefly-garden/dronefly-cli
$ dronefly

If all went well, you should arrive at a Dronefly (=) prompt where you can test it with the taxon command to look up taxa by name. For example:

$\tt\textcolor{gold}{(=)}$ taxon picoides pubescens
Dryobates pubescens (Downy Woodpecker) (Picoides pubescens)
is a species with 98,638 observations in:

Animalia >
Chordata > Vertebrata >
Aves >
Piciformes >
Picidae > Dryobates

$\tt\textcolor{gold}{(=)}$ quit

Configuration

There is no config storage yet. You can provide the default user with User.inat_place_id and User.inat_user_id values by setting the corresponding INAT_PLACE_ID and INAT_USER_ID environment variables.

For example, with INAT_PLACE_ID=6853, the taxon command shows introduction means for the configured place, Nova Scotia.

On Windows, run it in Windows Terminal for the best results, as it supports all of the rich formatting: clickable links, italics, strikethrough, and colour. This is a screenshot produced on the developer's workstation:
