23Install\r
24-------\r
25\r
26The quick way\r
27^^^^^^^^^^^^^\r
28\r
29You will need Python and pip (2.7.x or 3.x).\r
30\r
31.. code:: bash\r
32\r
33 sudo pip install rainbowstream\r
34 # Python 3 users: sudo pip3 install rainbowstream\r
35\r
36\r
37The recommended way\r
38^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^\r
39\r
40Use `virtualenv`_\r
41\r
42.. code:: bash\r
43\r
44 virtualenv venv\r
45 # Python 3 users : use -p to specify your Python 3 localtion as below\r
46 # virtualenv -p /usr/bin/python3 venv\r
47 source venv/bin/activate\r
48 pip install rainbowstream\r
49\r
50\r
51Usage\r
52-----\r
53\r
54The stream\r
55^^^^^^^^^^\r
56\r
57Just type\r
58\r
59.. code:: bash\r
60\r
61 rainbowstream\r
62\r
63and see your stream.\r
64\r
65I shipped a feature which can display **tweet's images directly on terminal**.\r
66You can try it with:\r
67\r
68.. code:: bash\r
69\r
70 rainbowstream -iot # Or rainbowstream --image-on-term\r
71\r
72You also can change the config key ``IMAGE_ON_TERM`` to ``True`` inside the app \r
73to enable above feature (see `config management`_ section).\r
74\r
75In the first time you will be asked for authorization of Rainbow Stream\r
76app at Twitter. Just click the “Authorize access” button and paste PIN\r
77number to the terminal, the rainbow will start.\r
78\r
79The interactive mode\r
80--------------------\r
81\r
82While your personal stream is continued, you are also ready to tweet,\r
83search, reply, retweet… directly from console. Simply type “h” and hit\r
84the Enter key to see the help.\r
85\r
86Input is in interactive mode. It means that you can use arrow key to\r
87move up and down history, tab-autocomplete or 2 tab to view available\r
88suggestion. Input history from previous run is available as well.\r
89\r
90Available commands are listed in `Read The Docs`_.\r
91\r
