Libervia CLI Tip 11:
Libervia automatically caches pubsub nodes you are subscribed to.
You can control it with the `li pubsub cache` commands.
The search capabilities are really powerful, with full-text search and many filters.
You can find items across profiles, within a time frame, or on any field of parsed data.
You can show whole items or specific data (e.g., title/author/tags of forum posts within a time frame).
Libervia CLI tip 6:
Most commands have an `-O, --output` option to format the output. By default, the output is pretty formatted for humans, but you can output in JSON, XML, or other formats.
With `template` output you can use Jinja templates, either built-in ones (the ones used in the web frontend), or your own; useful to build static HTML pages/sites, or reformat the data the way you want.
Use `--help` to see available outputs
Libervia CLI tip 5:
You can retrieve or modify your contacts list (aka “roster” in XMPP terms) with `li roster`.
One of the subcommands, `stats`, gives you, as its name implies, statistics on your roster.
You’ll notably get the number of contacts per domain, with a percentage representing the domain's “weight.” It’s a simple way to see how decentralized your contacts network is.
Libervia CLI tip 4:
If you see an XMPP powered blog like those made with Libervia or Movim, you can use directly the `https:` URL to retrieve the XMPP blog or one of its posts.
For instance, to get my blog at goffi.org with Libervia CLI, you can do:
`li blog get -u goffi.org`
This works with all pubsub related commands, so if you have the right, you can also edit or publish like that.
OK so as people seem interested, here is a first Libervia-CLI tip.
`li` is the short alias for `libervia-cli`.
If you want to quickly upload a file to share it, you can use:
`li file upload -P your_file.ext`
`-P` shows a progress bar.
You can even encrypt it with the `-e` option in which case you'll have an `aesgcm:` with the decryption token as a fragment of the URL (the `#…` part).
You can then decrypt with `li file get`.
In the latest issue of @podnews@social.podnews.net, the podcast app Castro, which has been suffering from a mulit-day outage, is reportedly being shuttered. More details at the link above.
Unsure how many #FictionPodcast listeners used the app, but it's time to find a new home, it seems.
I've removed the app from the list of one-click subscriptions on all the pages of The End as to not add to frustrations.
