Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. See deployment for notes on how to deploy the project on a live system.

Prerequisites

/ This is a humble web design tool inspired by the eyedropper functionality in Google Chrome's
  color picker interface (part of the dev tools panel) which allows one to choose any pixel of
  the current web page to set as a color property's value. Though hugely convenient for visual
  design, color selection being limited to the context of the page leaves much to be desired.

/ This partial solves the limitation by affixing an unobtrusive panel to your page to act as
  a makeshift color palette to use in conjunction with the eyedropper. The panel is populated
  with small squares representing a list of colors passed into the partial via local. Viola!

/ @local [Array<String>] colors List of values valid for `background-color` CSS property

# This is a web scraper which downloads mp3 files from the TATW web archives.
#
# Usage: run this script and pass it an episode range to download via arguments
#
# Dependencies: requires 'aria2' to be installed (uses the CLI tool 'aria2c')
#
require 'pathname'
require 'colorize' # Use of this gem is optional; it makes the output prettier

# The 'github_api' gem is implicility assumed to have been loaded at this point...

# Configuration data is passed to Github::Client#new as a Hash whose keys are Symbols
CONFIG_DATA = {
  user: 'github-username',
  login: '[email protected]',
  oauth_token: 'personal-access-token' # one of many valid authentication methods (see the gem docs for more)
}

# Data is returned from the API as a Github::ResponseWrapper object

/ This is a Slim recreation of the Flatdoc example template provided here:
/ https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rstacruz/flatdoc/gh-pages/templates/template.html
/
/ Flatdoc is a simple way to generate a documentation page from Markdown
/ More info is available on their website: http://ricostacruz.com/flatdoc/
/
/ The main alterations noticeable in this version of the template are:
/ - Emphasis is placed on using variables and interpolation often, key advantages of Slim
/ - The GitHub button links have been replaced with a Web Component version, which I
    find to be superior to using an iFrame. Just uncomment the original code to revert.

Regular Expressions

Text coloring / highlighting

I use the following regexes with [iTerm2][iterm]'s ['trigger' feature][it1] to create some basic syntax highlighting.

(?<=- )([A-Z][A-Z ]+:)+ Colorize CONSTANTS Magenta
(?<=- )(:|")\w*"?(?= =>) Colorize :keys => / "keys" => Yellow
^([^=]*)(?==) Colorize ENV_VARS Cyan
(?<=[^=])= Colorize the = separator Dark Grey
