rafaelrinaldi / hn-cli Goto Github PK

If anyone has any ideas on why the content doesn't display or things to try under Cygwin. I have to use windows at work unfortunately 😦

Write some unit tests to make sure that at least the core features are reliable.

After installing the package via npm , I executed hn

It shows up the following error message in terminal

/usr/lib/node_modules/@rafaelrinaldi/hn-cli/bin/hn-cli:6
const cli = require('../cli');
^^^^^

I using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.

When running over SOCKS proxies on my corporate network, I received Request timeout ☹ Might want to try again?.

You should support the standard proxy environmental variables:

http_proxy
https_proxy

I believe using got you can pass tunnel in to go through proxies

const got = require('got');
const tunnel = require('tunnel');

got(url, {
    agent: tunnel.httpOverHttp({
        proxy: {
            host: 'localhost'
        }
    })
});

Hi,

Thanks. Really nice program. It would be nice to have a refresh feature, maybe with "r" key.

The real important feature of HN are (IMHO) the comments.
So it would be nice to see how many comments and a shortcut to jump to it.

Having previously visited stories marked as read would be nice. Maybe a symbol or even through text decoration should do it.

I would like to know if it is possible to order the news by time, should it be good to get the news up to date.

Could i create an PR for that issue?

Add a feature to fetch only the latest (as in most recent) stories.

Thinking about it now, does --keep-open even make sense? I mean, you can close the program by hitting the escape key whenever you want anyways.

I'm really close to kill this flag.

Thoughts?

Hi,

If you could check for BROWSER environment variable and use that as the default for viewing, it would be great. My goal is to have commandline apps stay within an xterm. Personally, I'd suggest using 'links' but to each their own. :) thanks!

Implement a "jump to line" feature, similar to :n in Vim.
