A simple script to print random motivational quotes. Highly influenced by linux command fortune.
bash
and zsh
git
python 3x
$ git clone https://github.com/mubaris/motivate.git
$ cd motivate/motivate
$ sudo ./install.sh
$ source ~/.bashrc
zsh users should replace .bashrc
with .zshrc
.
If you have no root priviledge, install in this way:
$ git clone https://github.com/mubaris/motivate.git
$ cd motivate
$ ln -s $PWD/motivate/motivate.py moti
$ ln -s $PWD/dummy.sh mmoti
$ export PATH=$PWD:$PATH
$ # echo 'export PATH=$PWD:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc
Later you can run by calling moti
(a single run) or mmoti
(keep running until you break it).
After doing so, I found that python 2.x is enough to run this script.
git clone https://github.com/mubaris/motivate.git
.py -3 motivate.py
from the command prompt.$ git clone https://github.com/mubaris/motivate.git
$ cd motivate
$ ./UPDATE
$ motivate

The most popular way to contribute is adding new quotes. You do it by adding next JSON file in motivate/data/
directory. The rule is 20 quotes per file.
Before you submit your new JSON file, it is helpful to validate your file at this website to make sure it is formatly correct.
