    spread-revolutionary-date - Spread date and time from Revolutionary
    (Republican) Calendar

VERSION

    version 0.33

DESCRIPTION

    spread-revolutionary-date is a Free Software
    &lt;https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html&gt; that spreads the current
    date, expressed in the French Revolutionary calendar
    &lt;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_Republican_calendar&gt;, to various
    social networks: Twitter &lt;https://twitter.com/&gt;, Mastodon
    &lt;https://mastodon.social/&gt;, the Freenode &lt;https://freenode.net/&gt; and
    Liberachat &lt;https://libera.chat/&gt; Internet Relay Chat networks.

    Moreover, you can easily extend these defaults targets with any desired
    one, see "EXTENDING TO NEW TARGETS", and even spread something else
    than the revolutionary date, see "msgmaker" option and "EXTENDING TO
    NEW MESSAGE MAKERS".

    The French Revolutionary calendar, also called Republican calendar, was
    introduced during the French Revolution
    &lt;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_Revolution&gt;, and used from late
    1793 to 1805, and also during the Paris Commune
    &lt;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paris_Commune&gt; in 1871. This was an
    attempt to get rid of religious and royalist references found in
    Gregorian calendar when naming measures of Time. Months were given new
    names based on nature, each day of the year, instead of being named
    after an associated saint, had a unique name associated with the rural
    economy: agricultural tools, common animals, grains, pastures, trees,
    roots, flowers, fruits, plants, and minerals. But this was also an
    attempt to give more rational in measuring Time, basing measures on
    decimal system. Instead of weeks, each month was divided into exactly 3
    dÃ©cades, that is ten days; days were divided into ten hours; hours into
    100 minutes; and minutes into 100 seconds.

    You must have a registered account on each of the targets you want to
    spread the revolutionary date. And you must get credentials for
    spread-revolutionary-date to post on Twitter and Mastodon. Finally, you
    have to configure spread-revolutionary-date to use these credentials,
    see "CONFIGURATION" and "COMMAND LINE PARAMETERS" below.

    The revolutionary date and time is computed thanks to the
    DateTime::Calendar::FrenchRevolutionary Perl module, by Jean Forget.

USAGE

      # Just execute the script in your shell
      # to spread current date to configured accounts
      # to Twitter, Mastodon, Freenode and Liberachat:
      $ spread-revolutionary-date
    
      # Or, since this script does nothing but calling
      # the L&lt;App::SpreadRevolutionaryDate&gt; Perl module,
      # use this one-liner:
      $ perl -MApp::SpreadRevolutionaryDate \
          -e 'App::SpreadRevolutionaryDate-&gt;new-&gt;spread;'
    
      # Test spreading to Mastodon only:
      $ spread-revolutionary-date \
          --targets mastodon --test
    
      # Test spreading to Twitter only in English:
      $ spread-revolutionary-date \
          --targets twitter \
          --test \
          --locale en
    
      # Spread acab time to Twitter and Liberachat
      # explicit channels
      $ spread-revolutionary-date \
          --targets twitter \
          --targets liberachat \
          --liberachat_channels '#revolution' \
          --liberachat_channels '#acab' \
          --revolutionarydate_acab
    
      # Prompt user for a message to spread to mastodon
      $ spread-revolutionary-date \
          --targets mastodon \
          --msgwriter UserPrompt
    
      # Spread message as command line parameter to
      # Twitter, Mastodon, Freenode and Liberachat
      $ spread-revolutionary-date \
          --msgwriter UserPrompt \
          --promptuser_default \
            'This is my message to the world'

CONFIGURATION

    Once again: you have to configure spread-revolutionary-date with
    credentials for registered account on each of the desired targets, so
    it can spread the revolutionary date on behalf of these accounts.

    Configuration options may also be specified as command line parameters,
    see "COMMAND LINE PARAMETERS" below, which take precedence on options
    of the configuration file.

    The configuration file should lie on
    ~/.config/spread-revolutionary-date/spread-revolutionary-date.conf or
    ~/.spread-revolutionary-date.conf. In case a file is found on both
    paths, the second one is ignored. The configuration file should use the
    popular INI file format &lt;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/INI_file&gt;. A
    sample configuration file can be found in this distribution at
    etc/sample-spread-revolutionary-date.conf.

 General options

    These options should appear outside of any section of the configuration
    file.

  targets

    This option can be specified multiple times, with values as strings. It
    explicitly defines targets where the revolutionary date should be
    spread to. Any value set for this option should be a valid target: any
    of the three default targets (twitter, mastodon, freenode, or
    liberachat) or some new target if you have extended this application
    (see "EXTENDING TO NEW TARGETS"). If this option is not defined, the
    revolutionary date is spread on all three default targets: twitter,
    mastodon, freenode and liberachat.

  msgmaker

    This option can only be specified once, with a value as string. Spread
    a message computed by the class defined by the value of this option,
    defaults to RevolutionaryDate. The Value (case sensitive) of this
    option should correspond to an existing
    App::SpreadRevolutionaryDate::MsgMaker::Value class consuming
    App::SpreadRevolutionaryDate::MsgMaker role. Message makers values
    pre-defined in this distribution are RevolutionaryDate, which spreads
    the revolutionary date, and PromptUser, which prompts the user for the
    message to be spread (with confirmation). See "EXTENDING TO NEW MESSAGE
    MAKERS" for details on using a new value for this option.

  locale

    This option can only be specified once, with a value as string. Spread
    with chosen language. As of App::SpreadRevolutionaryDate 0.11 locale is
    limited to 'fr', 'en', 'it' or 'es' for RevolutionaryDate and 'fr',
    'en', 'it', 'es' or 'de'. Defaults to 'fr' for RevolutionaryDate and
    'en' otherwise. To add more languages see "INTERNATIONALIZATION AND
    LOCALIZATION".

  test

    This boolean option takes no value, either it is defined or not. If
    defined, do not actually spread the revolutionary date, just print it
    on standard output for Twitter and Mastodon, and send it on configured
    test channels for Freenode and Liberachat (see "test_channels" below).

  DEPRECATED acab

    This option is deprecated starting from version 0.09 of this
    distribution and may be removed in future release. Please use "acab"
    option in [revolutionarydate] section, as described below.

  DEPRECATED twitter

    This option is deprecated starting from version 0.07 of this
    distribution and may be removed in future release. Please use "targets"
    option, as described above. Spread on Twitter explicitly. If none of
    the twitter, mastodon, freenode, liberachat option is set, the
    revolutionary date is spread on all of these three targets.

  DEPRECATED mastodon

    This option is deprecated starting from version 0.07 of this
    distribution and may be removed in future release. Please use "targets"
    option, as described above. Spread on Mastodon explicitly. If none of
    the twitter, mastodon, freenode, liberachat option is set, the
    revolutionary date is spread on all of these three targets.

  DEPRECATED freenode

    This option is deprecated starting from version 0.07 of this
    distribution and may be removed in future release. Please use "targets"
    option, as described above. Spread on Freenode explicitly. If none of
    the twitter, mastodon, freenode, liberachat option is set, the
    revolutionary date is spread on all of these three targets.

  DEPRECATED liberachat

    This option is deprecated starting from version 0.07 of this
    distribution and may be removed in future release. Please use "targets"
    option, as described above. Spread on Liberachat explicitly. If none of
    the twitter, mastodon, freenode, liberachat option is set, the
    revolutionary date is spread on all of these three targets.

    "test" option is not set. It is ignored if "test" option is set.

  test_channels

    This option can be specified multiple times, with values as strings.
    spread-revolutionary-date will spread on every channel specified with
    this option. This option should be specified at least one time if
    "test" option is set. It is ignored if "test" option is not set.

 RevolutionaryDate options

    These options change the way revolutionary date is computed when
    "msgmaker" option is RevolutionaryDate. They should be defined in the
    [revolutionarydate] section of the configuration file.

  acab

    This boolean option takes no value, either it is defined or not,
    defaults to false. If defined, instead of spreading the current date
    and time, pretend that decimal time is 1:31:20 (which corresponds to
    03:08:56 UTC, 04:08:56 Paris winter time, or 05:08:56 Paris summer
    time, in sexagesimal scale used by common Anglo-Babylonian Time).

  wikipedia_link

    This boolean option takes no value, either it is defined or not,
    defaults to true. If defined, a link to the wikipedia page, in language
    defined by the locale option, corresponding to the feast of the day, is
    added to the date to be spread.

 PromptUser option

    If "msgmaker" option is PromptUser, instead of spreading the
    revolutionary date, prompts the user (with confirmation) for the
    message to be spread, with a default value (if user enters nothing when
    prompted).

  default

    This option can only be specified once, with a value as string. If
    default option is set, the user is not prompted and this default
    message is spread. If default option is not defined, the default
    message is 'Goodbye old world, hello revolutionary worlds' if the user
    enters nothing when prompted. The default option should be defined in
    the [promptuser] section of the configuration file. It is only used if
    "msgmaker" option is PromptUser.

EXTENDING TO NEW TARGETS

    Starting from version 0.07, this distribution takes advantage of Moose,
    the postmodern object system for Perl 5, allowing to easily extend
    spread-revolutionary-date to other targets than the default ones
    (Twitter, Mastondon, Freenode and Liberachat.

    To add a new target, you should write a new class in the
    App::SpreadRevolutionaryDate::Target:: namespace (that is: the class
    should be App::SpreadRevolutionaryDate::Target::Mytarget for a new
    Mytarget target), that consumes the
    App::SpreadRevolutionaryDate::Target role. See "DESCRIPTION" in
    App::SpreadRevolutionaryDate::Target for a comprehensive description of
    this role.

    The name of the target should be added as a value of the "targets"
    option in lower case.

    Such a target class is actually just a wrapper. Usually a target has to
    use an existing specific module (which can be a Moose class or not) to
    perform the actual work of posting a message according the specific
    target protocol, after having complied with any potential required
    authentication. Such authentication should be carried on by the
    constructor or, along with posting, by the required spread method of
    the target class.

    To perform authentication and to post a message, there is a strong
    likelihood that the new target requires specific parameters (e.g.:
    tokens, keys, account name, password, channels, etc.). These parameters
    should be defined as required attributes of the target class. Values
    for such attributes should be set in the configuration file, inside a
    section named after the target in lower case ([mytarget]), or as
    command line parameters prefixed with the name of the target in lower
    case, followed by an underscore (--mytarget_myparam).

    Should you extend spread-revolutionary-date to a new target, we advise
    you to have a look on how default targets are implemented:
    App::SpreadRevolutionaryDate::Target::Twitter with Twitter::API worker,
    App::SpreadRevolutionaryDate::Target::Mastodon with Mastodon::Client
    worker. Both are using OAuth2 protocol &lt;https://oauth.net/2/&gt; to
    perform authentication. The third and fourth default targets,
    App::SpreadRevolutionaryDate::Target::Freenode
    &lt;App::SpreadRevolutionaryDate::Target::Liberachat&gt;, uses a chatbot
    &lt;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chatbot&gt;:
    App::SpreadRevolutionaryDate::Target::Freenode::Bot
    App::SpreadRevolutionaryDate::Target::Liberachat::Bot subclassing
    Bot::BasicBot. You can also see a very simple example with a test file
    provided in this distribution at t/new_target.t, which just prints out
    the revolutionary date on the standard output using core module
    IO::Handle.

EXTENDING TO NEW MESSAGE MAKERS

    It is even easier to spread whatever you want instead of the
    revolutionary date. You should write a new class in the
    App::SpreadRevolutionaryDate::MsgMaker:: namespace (that is: the class
    should be App::SpreadRevolutionaryDate::MsgMaker::MyMsgMaker for a new
    MyMsgMaker message maker), that consumes the
    App::SpreadRevolutionaryDate::MsgMaker role. See "DESCRIPTION" in
    App::SpreadRevolutionaryDate::MsgMaker for a comprehensive description
    of this role.

    The name of the message maker should be set as a value of the
    "msgmaker" option in lower case.

    Such a message maker class is actually just a wrapper. Usually a
    message maker has to use an existing specific module (which can be a
    Moose class or not) to craft the message.
    App::SpreadRevolutionaryDate::MsgMaker::RevolutionaryDate uses
    DateTime::Calendar::FrenchRevolutionary, while
    App::SpreadRevolutionaryDate::MsgMaker::PromptUser is based on
    IO::Prompt::Hooked. You may need for example LWP to extract the message
    from a fetched web page or service, or XML::Feed to build it from a RSS
    &lt;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSS&gt; feed, or DBI to retrieve it from a
    database, or nothing at all to spread a fixed message, etc.

    If your new message maker class needs specific parameters (other than
    locale, which comes with App::SpreadRevolutionaryDate::MsgMaker role),
    they should be defined as attributes of this class. Values for such
    attributes should be set in the configuration file, inside a section
    named after the message maker in lower case ([mymsgmaker]), or as
    command line parameters prefixed with the name of the message maker in
    lower case, followed by an underscore (--mytarget_myparam).

    Have a look to the App::SpreadRevolutionaryDate::MsgMaker::PromptUser
    class, it shows a simple example on how to extend
    spread-revolutionary-date to a new message maker.

INTERNATIONALIZATION AND LOCALIZATION

    Starting from version 0.11, this distribution uses the widespread
    internationalization and localization system gettext
    &lt;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gettext&gt;, commonly used for writing
    multilingual programs. See GNU gettext documentation
    &lt;https://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/gettext.html&gt; for details. From
    the point of view of a translator, this is rather simple.

    Translators can find a portable object template
    po/App-SpreadRevolutionaryDate.pot which includes all translatable
    strings used by spread-revolutionary-date (but not translations of
    days, months, feasts used in the French Revolutionary Calendar, see
    below). They can copy this template to a portable object file of their
    language and translate strings of this file. For example, a German
    translator would work on po/de.po. All strings to be translated are
    laid down in lines beginning with msgid keyword, and translations
    should go on the next line beginning with keyword msgstr. E.g.:

      msgid "Please, enter message to spread"

    A German translator would have to replace the next line:

     msgstr ""

    by:

     msgstr "Bitte geben Sie die Nachricht zu verbreiten ein"

    When the string to be translated includes some words in curly braces,
    these words are actually named variables and should be left as is in
    the translation. E.g.:

      msgid "or {abort} to abort"
      msgstr "oder {abort}, um abzubrechen"

    And that's it! As of version 0.11 of spread-revolutionary-date, there
    is only about a dozen of strings to translate, mainly for PromptUser
    message maker. But with the possibility to extend to other message
    makers, you may need more and more strings to be translated.

    Translating days, months and feasts used in the RevolutionaryDate
    message maker do not use the gettext system. Mainly because it uses
    DateTime::Calendar::FrenchRevolutionary which proposes French and
    English translations in dedicated Perl modules.
    spread-revolutionary-date keeps the same way for translating
    expressions used in the French revolutionary calendar, but, thanks to
    Moose::Role
    App::SpreadRevolutionaryDate::MsgMaker::RevolutionaryDate::Locale,
    translatable nominal groups have been isolated from other Perl code.
    Their translations lie in a consuming class in the
    App::SpreadRevolutionaryDate::MsgMaker::RevolutionaryDate::Locale::
    namespace for each translated language. These classes are named after
    the two-letter (ISO 639-1 &lt;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_639-1&gt;) or
    three-letter (ISO 639-2 &lt;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_639-2&gt; and
    hISO 639-3 &lt;ttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_639-3&gt;) lowercase
    abbreviation of the corresponding language. For example, a German
    translator would work on
    App::SpreadRevolutionaryDate::MsgMaker::RevolutionaryDate::Locale::de
    class.

    Just copy the French class (from
    lib/App/SpreadRevolutionaryDate/MsgMaker/RevolutionaryDate/Locale/fr.pm
    file) into the desired language, change the name of the class and
    replace every French string. E.g.: the names of the months should be
    replace in:

      has '+months' =&gt; (
        default =&gt; sub {[
          'VendÃ©miaire', 'Brumaire',  'Frimaire',
          'NivÃ´se',      'PluviÃ´se',  'VentÃ´se',
          'Germinal',    'FlorÃ©al',   'Prairial',
          'Messidor',    'Thermidor', 'Fructidor',
          'jour complÃ©mentaire',
        ]},
      );

    by names in German:

      has '+months' =&gt; (
        default =&gt; sub {[
          'Herbstmonat',    'Nebelmonat',  'Reifmonat',
          'Schneemonat',    'Regenmonat',  'Windmonat',
          'Keimmonat',      'BlÃ¼tenmonat', 'Wiesenmonat',
          'Erntemonat',     'Hitzemonat',  'Fruchtmonat',
          'ErgÃ¤nzungstage',
        ]},
      );

    Feasts include a special trick, because they can be used in sentences
    like this is feast name day or c'est le jour de la feast name.
    Depending on the language, it could then be prefixed or suffixed: in
    English it is suffixed by  day, whereas in French it is prefixed by
    jour de la . Prefixes are translated as an array of strings, while the
    suffix is translated in a single string. The reason is that in
    languages where the feast of the day is prefixed, the prefix often
    depends on the gender or the number of the noun used for the feast, or
    whereas this noun starts by a vowel, and other factors depending on the
    language. Therefore, each translation of the feast of each day should
    starts with a digit specifying the index (starting from 0) in the
    translated array of prefixes to use for this word. E.g.: with prefixes
    translated by ['jour du ', 'jour de la ', "jour de l'", 'jour des '],
    some feast can be translated by '1carotte', '2amaranthe', '0panais'
    (because you say: jour de la carotte, with prefix number 1, jour de
    l'amaranthe, with prefix number 2, and jour du panais, with prefix
    number 0. If the language does not use any prefix before the feast of
    the day, each translation for the feast of the day should start with 0,
    and the array of prefixes should include an empty string as its single
    element. If the language does not use a suffix after the feast of the
    day, the translation of the sufix should be an empty string.

    Note also that any space in the name of the feast of the day should be
    replaced by an underscore (_).

    Finally, these translation classes include a mapping between the feast
    of the day and the wikipedia entry for this word. This is useful when
    the feast of the day corresponds to an ambiguous entry, or a different
    word, in wikipedia. If the wikipedia entry is the same as the feast of
    the day, you can omit it. If the wikipedia entry is different from the
    feast of the day, you should add a line in the appropriate group of
    mappings for the considered month (groups of mappings are numbered from
    1 to 13). In the left part of this new mapping you should use the feast
    of the day as you have translated it, but without the number indicating
    the prefix and with spaces, not underscores. And in the right part of
    this new mapping, you should use the wikipedia entry, i.e. the end of
    the wikipedia url. E.g.:

      has '+wikipedia_entries' =&gt; (
        default =&gt; sub {{
          2 =&gt; {
            'water chestnut' =&gt; 'Water_caltrop',
          },
          8 =&gt; {
            'hoe'            =&gt; 'Hoe_(tool)',
          },
        }},
      );

    Because of the trick on prefix and suffix for feasts and the needed
    mapping for wikipedia entries, using the gettext system would be quite
    difficult. It wouldn't be an issue for translating names of months or
    days. But for consistency reasons, I'd rather group all these
    translations used in the French Revolutionary Calendar in the same
    translation class. Nevertheless, I'm open to find solutions if you
    think it would be easier to translate everything with the gettext
    system.
