HistSync

Cloud bash history app using Python and Flask.

The app is currently under heavy development.

Installing

Run: bash <(curl http://www.histsync.io/download-client/install.bash)

And then add this to your .bashrc / .bash_profile

preexec() {
    ~/.histsync/histsync-client --api-key {{hist_sync_api_key}} --user {{github_username}} "$1" --log-file ~/.histsync/log;
}

Running development version locally

HistSync uses python2.7

Using foreman is recommended(makes easier config managing).

Foreman is a part of heroku toolbelt, but it can also be installed as a standalone ruby gem by running gem install foreman. More info here.

Virtual Environment

1. Initialize virtual environment: virtualenv histsync-venv
2. Activate virtual environment source histsync-venv/bin/activate
3. Install dependencies pip install -r requirements-dev.txt

Note, that if your system uses python3 by default, you should run virtualenv -p PYTHON_EXE histsync-venv in step 1, where PYTHON_EXE is a path to python2 executable.

.env

Create .env file containing these lines

STANDALONE="true"
STANDALONE_USERNAME="yourusername"
DATABASE_URL="sqlite:///sqlite.db"
GITHUB_APP_ID="noid"
GITHUB_APP_SECRET="nosecret"
SECRET_KEY="devkey"

Database

HistSync uses postgres in production(and it is recommended to use postgres in development), but using sqlite is also fine.

1. Run foreman run python
2. In python shell:

from app import db
db.create_all()

3. TODO: migrations

Running the app

foreman run python app.py run
