| | 21 | ## Install |
| | 22 | You will need Python 2.7+ and pip. |
| | 23 | |
| | 24 | ```bash |
| | 25 | sudo pip install rainbowstream |
| | 26 | ``` |
| | 27 | |
| | 28 | or try with a virtualenv |
| | 29 | ```bash |
| | 30 | sudo pip install virtualenv # skip if you already have virtualenv |
| | 31 | virtualenv venv |
| | 32 | source venv/bin/activate # use the brand new virtualenv. |
| | 33 | pip install rainbowstream |
| | 34 | ``` |
| | 35 | |
| | 36 | |
| | 37 | ## Usage |
| | 38 | #### The stream |
| | 39 | Just type |
| | 40 | ```bash |
| | 41 | rainbow |
| | 42 | ``` |
| | 43 | and see your stream. |
| | 44 | |
| | 45 | I shipped a feature which can display **tweet's images directly on terminal**. |
| | 46 | You can try it with: |
| | 47 | ```bash |
| | 48 | rainbow -iot # Or rainbow --image-on-term |
| | 49 | ``` |
| | 50 | |
| | 51 | In the first time you will be asked for authorization of Rainbow Stream app at Twitter. |
| | 52 | Just click the "Authorize access" button and paste PIN number to the terminal, the rainbow will start. |
| | 53 | |
| | 54 | ## Interactive mode |
| | 55 | |
| | 56 | While your personal stream is continued, you are also ready to tweet, search, reply, retweet... directly from console. |
| | 57 | Simply type "h" and hit the Enter key to see the help. |
| | 58 | |
| | 59 | Input is in interactive mode. It means that you can use arrow key to move up and down history, tab-autocomplete or 2 tab to view available suggestion. Input history from previous run is available as well. |
| | 60 | |
