## signet.sh |
||||
|
Signet.sh is a shell script parsing a bookmark database to a webpage. |
||||
|
It uses awk inside a here-doc declaration redirected to an html file. |
||||
|
|
||||
|
I have created this script because I found the bookmarks manager from |
||||
|
firefox not great to use, to the point where I did not have the habit to |
||||
|
bookmark my browsing. Firefox stores bookmarks in a sqlite format and I |
||||
|
wanted something text based |
||||
|
|
||||
|
## Bookmarks database format |
||||
|
Only a Url is required, the rest of the fields are optional : |
||||
|
URL : ... |
||||
|
Name : grabs </title> from the bookmarked page |
||||
|
Description : ... |
||||
|
Tags : comma separated keywords |
||||
|
Date : posix time of the bookmarked link |
||||
|
Color : css color (name, hex, rgb etc...) |
||||
|
|
||||
|
For example, in a file called BOOKMARKS by default: |
||||
|
``` |
||||
|
URL: https://rosettacode.org/wiki/Rosetta_Code |
||||
|
Name: Rosetta Code |
||||
|
Description: |
||||
|
Tags: literacy, read |

# Dependency : |
||||
|
To add a link via the proposed interface, we will need |
||||
|
to install dmenu ~~and htmlq~~. |
||||
|
* dmenu https://tools.suckless.org/dmenu/ (MIT/X) |
||||
|
* ~~htmlq https://github.com/mgdm/htmlq (MIT)~~ replaced by one |
||||
|
awk command |
||||
|
## dmenu |
||||
|
Dmenu is an interactive menu that allows us to select and write |
||||
|
values in a menu. These values can come from a program |
||||
|
provided as input from a pipe "|", for example: |
||||
|
``` |
||||
|
ls | dmenu |
||||
|
``` |
||||
|
displays a drop-down menu with the files in my directory. |
||||
|
In our script, to store the given tags in a variable, we can do: |
||||
|
``` |
||||
|
tags=$(echo "" | dmenu -p "Enter comma-separated tags:") |
||||
|
``` |
||||
|
## ~~htmlq~~ |
||||
|
Htmlq is an HTML parser written in Go. It doesn't matter which parser we |
||||
|
uses, it seems that each language has its own. |
||||
|
We give to the program an html string and it filters through it using css |
||||
|
selectors returning the found html elements |
||||
|
Using javascript, retrieving all the \<h1> children of a \<section> can |
||||
|
be done with : |
||||
|
``` |
||||
|
document.querySelectorAll('section h1') |
||||
|
``` |
||||
|
In shell, it's more complicated, htmlq is made for that: |
||||
|
``` |
||||
|
cat fichier.html | htmlq 'section h1' |
||||
|
``` |
||||
|
And to output only the text -- the javascript equivalent of .innerHTML: |
||||
|
``` |
||||
|
cat fichier.html | htmlq 'section h1' --text |
||||
|
``` |
||||
|
We use it to retrieve the title tag of the page to add: |
||||
|
``` |
||||
|
curl page.html | htmlq 'title' --text |
||||
|
``` |
||||
|
Pre-release patch: |
||||
|
``` |
||||
|
curl $url | awk -v RS='</title>' \ |
||||
|
'/<title>/ {gsub(/.*<title>/, ""); print}' |\ |
||||
|
tr -d '\n' |
||||
|
``` |
||||
|
|
||||
|
For the moment this step is blocking. In case internet cuts while |
||||
|
bookmarking a link, you will have to wait for the end of the curl |
||||
|
attempt to move to the next field in the script :/ sorry! |
||||
|
|
||||
|
# Add a bookmark : |
||||
|
|
||||
|
To add a link, I select the URL of the page with Ctrl + l, the copy and |
||||
|
run add.sh with Super + i. _If anyone knows how to retrieve the url of |
||||
|
the current browser page without having to copy it, this would save two |
||||
|
steps out of three._ |
||||
|
En résumé : Ctrl + l, Ctrl + c, Super + i |
||||
|
(ou plus court : Ctrl + l + i, Super + i) |
||||
|
|
||||
|
Super + i because in my window manager configuration file located in |
||||
|
~/.config/awesome/rc.lua, I have the following lines: |
||||
|
``` |
||||
|
awful.key({modkey}, "i", function() |
||||
|
awful.util.spawn_with_shell("add.sh") end, |
||||
|
{description = "Enregistre le lien copié dans signet.sh"}), |
||||
|
``` |
||||
|
|
||||
|
# Structure du répertoire |
||||
|
|
||||
|
* BOOKMARKS → A textual database of bookmarks |
||||
|
* add.sh → A script to add a link to the database |
||||
|
- dmenu |
||||
|
- ./signet.sh |
||||
|
* bookmark.sh → The shell script itself |
||||
|
- It generates a new html page from the link database |
||||
|
(default index.html) |
||||
|
* style.css → Stylesheet for index.html |
||||
|
* script.js → A bit of javascript for: |
||||
|
- search in the \<textarea> |
||||
|
- add background colors to entries that have them |
||||
|
- if the description field is empty, do not |
||||
|
display it |
||||
|
- format posix time dates to YY-MM-DD format |
||||
|
/!\ Soon /!\ |
||||
|
starred.sh → curl from the github user api and format it in the same |
||||
|
way as signet.sh without using jq |
