rebound-cli 1.0a1

Automatically displays Stack Overflow results when you get a compiler error

Rebound automatically displays Stack Overflow search results in your terminal when you get a compiler error. Just use the rebound command before the file you want to execute.

Placeholder Demo

Installation

You can install rebound with pip (homebrew coming soon):

$ pip install rebound-cli

Requires Python 2.0 or higher. OS X, Linux, and Windows are all supported.

Usage

Compiling a file with rebound is as simple as doing it normally. Just run:

$ rebound [file_name]

This will execute the file, catch any compiler errors, and prompt you to browse related Stack Overflow questions/answers. Rebound currently supports Python and NodeJS files. Support for Ruby and Java is coming soon!

Contributing

Rebound is written in Python and built on Urwid. Beautiful Soup is used to scrape Stack Overflow content and subprocess is used to catch compiler errors.
