This repo tries to recover several quotes related with development world and put all together.

Here's how to download the project and how to use it with different tools:

• You can clone this project from the repo with the git command:

  ~$: git clone https://github.com/gatsbimantico/developers-quotes.git

• Download only the quotes file.

  ~$: wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gatsbimantico/developers-quotes/master/developers

• Download only the quotes file.

  ~$: wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gatsbimantico/developers-quotes/master/developers.json

• Fetch the JSON file from the CDN

  https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/gatsbimantico/developers-quotes/developers.json

After installing NodeJS, if you don't have it already installed. Just simply run:

~$: node build.json.js

And it will produce a json file with the quotes, ready to be consumed.

fortune is a simple program that displays a pseudorandom message from a database of quotations that first appeared in Version 7 Unix.

If you want to add some more quotes to your database, or remove it, the only thing that you have to do is to split the qoutes with the '%' character.

If you don't have installed fortune yet on your system, probably you can download it from the public repositories. For example, debian distrubutions can install the software with the command:

~$: sudo apt-get install fortune

You can try if the installation was right running the command

~$: fortune

And fortune will show you a random message from its database.

To generate the databases for the program fortune you should execute the command into the project folder, where the developers file is placed.

~$: sudo strfile developers

That command will generate developers.dat with all the qoutes in a binary file.

The route used by fortune in a linux system is:

/usr/share/games/fortunes/

Then, you can move the generated file to the fortune quotes source folder.

~$: sudo mv developers.dat /usr/share/games/fortunes/developers.dat

To test the new database you only have to run the command with the 'developers' param, what means that database will be used by fortune

~$: fortune developers

fortune can be used with other programs like cowsay. If you have cowsay installed you can run all together and show funny messages.
