#Shiny Feeds

Shiny Feeds is an XMPP (Jabber, GChat, etc) based microblogging platform All posting and editing is done through commands sent to an XMPP chat bot.

Check it out live at [http://shinyfeeds.com] (http://shinyfeeds.com).

##INSTALLING:

Copy settings.example.py to settings.py and modify appropriately. Currently, you will have to add the database with table to your database, this will be done automatically soon. Run xmpp-listener.py, which does the actual XMPP work (you might need to open port 5222 in your router settings). Run shiny.py to use web.py debug web server or setup as a WSGI application.

##USAGE:

A shiny feeds command consists of a single character (case-insensitive) followed by a space-separated list of parameters. All post body text is displayed as Markdown. You only need to know a few commands to use shiny feeds effectively:

n <post title> - Creates a new post with a given title. The bot will reply with the id number of the new post.

> <post text> - Adds a paragraph to the last post you added.

\ <post text> - Adds a new line to the last post you added.

w <post id> <post body> - Overwrites body of specific post to passed text.

a <post id> <post text> - Appends passed text as a new paragraph in body of specific post.

l <limit> - Lists last posts.

x <post id> - Deletes specific post.
