Term-Clock ⏰

A Configurable and Colourful Terminal Clock...

This project is no longer maintained. Try the new termclock ruby gem here https://github.com/Souravgoswami/termclock

Dependencies ➕

• Ruby: The program is written in Ruby. So you need to download the Ruby interpreter (ruby 2.5+) to run: ruby term-clock.rb

• Fonts: The noto-fonts and noto-fonts-emoji are needed to display unicode characters used in this program.

Usage and Running 🔄

• Term-clock root installer will be coming soon. However, this repo is only for non-root usage. You can grab the source code and run it with --download-all option.
• If you zip download the files, you have to run the term-clock.rb.

Note that this program is only for GNU/Linux. But it's also usable on Termux (though the emojis will not get displayed well). It should also run on BSDs and MacOS though we can't guarantee the support.

Configuration ⚙️

Read and edit the configuration file according to your need.

Arguments 💡

Arguments: The available arguments that term-clock.rb accepts are:

• --download-conf Downloads the configuration file from the internet [gihub]
• --download-quote Downloads missing quote file from the internet [github]
• --download-characters Downloads missing character mapping file.
• --download-all Downloads all the necessary files to run term-clock.
• --help / -h To visit this help section again.
• --version / -v To review the term-clock version.
• --colours Shows all the available colours.
• --tty? Shows if the current terminal is TTY. [Generally code editors are not TTY]

Converter

Let me talk about the a bit. It converts all the characters in the characters.txt to something else you specify. It isn't directly related to term-clock, but if you are interested, run ruby character_converter.rb -c='your_character' where your character is a single digit character. Note that this and term-clock is only tested on various GNU/Linux systems.
