About

This is a small libcurl-based C application for the command line. I started this simply to brush up on my C and Linux/POSIX skills. Plus, I am playing around with a netbook loaded with archlinux and I am trying to keep it text only. Yes, I am nuts.

I plan for it to be usable i along with other Unix utilities, like grep, awk, etc. So results can be manipulated further with other applications. And used too.

License

No cost at all. I will probably use the BSD License, or MIT's.

Download

https://github.com/ebobby/stackoverflow-cli

No binaries. Source code only. There is a simple Makefile, if it doesn't work for your setup feel free to change it and send patches my way. ;)

Current dependencies are libcurl, json-c and getops GNU extensions.

Platform

I have just compiled it and run it on archlinux. I see no reason why it wouldn't compile and run in other *nix as well. It also compiles in my Macbook Pro.

Its written in C.

Dependencies/libraries: libcurl, json-c.

Update The little app now runs the search api method and parses the json correctly displaying formattef output. Go and try it! More methods coming soon.

    Sure, the functionality can be wrapped into a library and the actual app simply rely on it. Want to help with that? ;) Dec 23, 2011 at 21:24

    I'll see what I can do. I'll fork the code on GitHub. Dec 23, 2011 at 21:34
