Twitterpunch =============== Twitterpunch is designed to work with PhotoBooth and OS X Folder Actions. When this script is called with the name of an image file, it will post the image to Twitter, along with a message randomly chosen from a list and a specified hashtag. If you call the script with the `--stream` argument instead, it will listen for tweets to that hashtag and download them to a specified directory. If the tweet came from another user, Twitterpunch will speak it aloud. Typically, you'll run one copy on an OSX laptop with PhotoBooth, and a separate copy on another machine (either Windows or OSX) for the viewer. You can also use a mobile device as a remote control, if you like. This will allow the user to enter a custom message for each photo that gets tweeted out, if they'd like. Configuration =========== Configure the program via the `~/.twitterpunch/config.yaml` YAML file. This file should look similar to the example below. --- :twitter: # twitter configuration :consumer_key: <consumer key> :consumer_secret: <consumer secret> :access_token: <access token> :access_token_secret: <access secret> :messages: # list of messages to attach - Hello there # to outgoing tweets - I'm a posting fool - minimally viable product :hashtag: Twitterpunch # The hashtag to post and listen to :handle: Twitterpunch # The twitter username to post as :photodir: ~/Pictures/twitterpunch/ # Where to save downloaded images :logfile: ~/.twitterpunch/activity.log # Where to save logs :viewer: # Use the built-in slideshow viewer :count: 5 # How many images to have onscreen at once :remote: :timeout: 45 # How long the button should remain disabled for :apptitle: dslrBooth # The photo booth application title :hotkey: space # Which hotkey to send to trigger a photo 1. Generate a skeleton configuration file * `twitterpunch --configure` 1. Edit the configuration file as needed. You'll be prompted with the path. * If you have your own Twitter application credentials, you're welcome to use them. 1. Authorize the application with the Twitter API. * `twitterpunch --authorize` Usage ========== ### Using OS X PhotoBooth 1. Start PhotoBooth at least once to generate its library. 1. Install the Twitterpunch Folder Action * `twitterpunch --install` * It may claim that it could not be attached, fear not. 1. Profit! * _and by that, I mean take some shots with PhotoBooth!_ *Note*: if the folder action doesn't seem to work and photos aren't posted to Twitter, here are some troubleshooting steps to take: 1. Run Twitterpunch by hand with photos as arguments. This may help you isolate configuration or authorization issues. * `twitterpunch foo.jpg` 1. Correct the path in the workflow. * `which twitterpunch` * Edit the Twitterpunch folder action to include that path. #### Using the remote web app Configure the remote web app using the `:remote` hash in `config.yaml`. You can usually find the title of the app using `system_profiler -detailLevel full SPApplicationsDataType` and grepping for the name or path to the `.app`. In this example, the title is _dslrBooth_. [ben@ganymede] ~ $ system_profiler -detailLevel full SPApplicationsDataType | grep -B8 dslrBooth.app dslrBooth: Version: 2.9 Obtained from: Identified Developer Last Modified: 10/14/17, 9:50 PM Kind: Intel 64-Bit (Intel): Yes Signed by: Developer ID Application: Hope Pictures LLC (MZR5GHAQX4), Developer ID Certification Authority, Apple Root CA Location: /Applications/dslrBooth.app 1. Run the app with `twitterpunch --remote` 1. Browse to the app with http://{address}:8080 1. [optional] If on an iOS device, add to your homescreen * This will give you "app behaviour", such as full screen, and a nice icon #### Troubleshooting. 1. Make sure the folder action is installed properly 1. Use the Finder to navigate to `~/Pictures/` 1. Right click on the `Photo Booth Library` icon and choose _Show Package Contents_. 1. Right click on the `Pictures` folder and choose `Services > Folder Actions Setup` 1. Make sure that the `Twitterpunch` action is attached. 1. Install the folder action 1. Open the `resources` folder of this gem. * Likely to be found in `/Library/Ruby/Gems/{version}/gems/twitterpunch-#{version}/resources/`. 1. Double click on the `Twitterpunch` folder action and install it. * It may claim that it could not be attached, fear not. ### Using something besides PhotoBooth Configure the program you are using for your photo shoot to call Twitterpunch each time it snaps a photo. Pass the name of the new photo as a command line argument. Alternatively, you could batch them, as Twitterpunch can accept multiple files at once. [ben@ganymede] ~ $ twitterpunch photo.jpg [photo2.jpg photo3.jpg photo4.jpg] You can manually install the Folder Action, or you can follow the automated install process after tweaking the workflow slightly. 1. Identify where the app stores the resulting image files. 1. Edit the Twitterpunch folder action to include that path. 1. Follow the steps above to install the Folder Action. ### Viewing the Twitter stream Twitterpunch will run on OS X or Windows equally well. Simply configure it on the computer that will act as the Twitter display and then run in streaming mode. [ben@ganymede] ~ $ twitterpunch --stream There are two modes that Twitterpunch can operate in. 1. If a `:hashtag` is defined then all images tweeted to the configured hashtag will be displayed in the slideshow. 1. Otherwise, Twitterpunch will stream the `:handle` Twitter user's stream and display all images either posted by that user or addressed to that user. With protected tweets, you can have rudimentary access control. In either mode, tweets that come from any other user will also be spoken aloud. If you don't want to use the built-in slideshow viewer, you can disable it by removing the `:viewer` key from your `~/.twitterpunch/config.yaml` config file. Twitterpunch will then simply download the tweeted images and save them into the `:photodir` directory. You can then use anything you like to view them. There are currently two decent viewing options I am aware of. * Windows background image: * Configure the Windows background to randomly cycle through photos in a directory. * Hide desktop icons. * Hide the taskbar. * Disable screensaver and power savings. * Drawbacks: You're using Windows and you have to install Ruby & RubyGems manually. * OS X screensaver: * Choose one of the sexy screensavers and configure it to show photos from the `:photodir` * Set screensaver to a super short timeout. * Disable power savings. * Drawbacks: The screensaver doesn't reload dynamically, so I have to kick it and you'll see it reloading each time a new tweet comes in. Limitations =========== * It currently requires manual setup for Folder Actions. * Rubygame is kind of a pain to set up.

== Confidently Build Terminal Apps Rooibos[https://rooibos.run] helps you build interactive terminal applications. Keep your code understandable and testable as it scales. Rooibos handles keyboard, mouse, and async work so you can focus on behavior and user experience. gem install rooibos <i>Currently in beta. APIs may change before 1.0.</i> === Get Started in Seconds rooibos new my_app cd my_app rooibos run That's it. You have a working app with keyboard navigation, mouse support, and clickable buttons. Open <tt>lib/my_app.rb</tt> to make it your own. --- === The Pattern \Rooibos uses Model-View-Update, the architecture behind Elm[https://guide.elm-lang.org/architecture/], Redux[https://redux.js.org/], and {Bubble Tea}[https://github.com/charmbracelet/bubbletea]. State lives in one place. Updates flow in one direction. The runtime handles rendering and runs background work for you. --- === Hello, MVU The simplest \Rooibos app. Press any key to increment the counter. Press <tt>Ctrl</tt>+<tt>C</tt> to quit. require "rooibos" module Counter # Init: How do you create the initial model? Init = -> { 0 } # View: What does the user see? View = -> (model, tui) { tui.paragraph(text: <<~END) } Current count: #{model}. Press any key to increment. Press Ctrl+C to quit. END # Update: What happens when things change? Update = -> (message, model) { if message.ctrl_c? Rooibos::Command.exit elsif message.key? model + 1 end } end Rooibos.run(Counter) That's the whole pattern: Model holds state, Init creates it, View renders it, and Update changes it. The runtime handles everything else. --- === Your First Real Application A file browser in sixty lines. It opens files, navigates directories, handles errors, styles directories and hidden files differently, and supports vim-style keyboard shortcuts. If you can do this much with this little code, imagine how easy _your_ app will be to build. require "rooibos" module FileBrowser # Model: What state does your app need? Model = Data.define(:path, :entries, :selected, :error) Init = -> { path = Dir.pwd entries = Entries[path] Ractor.make_shareable( # Ensures thread safety Model.new(path:, entries:, selected: entries.first, error: nil)) } View = -> (model, tui) { tui.block( titles: [model.error || model.path, { content: KEYS, position: :bottom, alignment: :right}], borders: [:all], border_style: if model.error then tui.style(fg: :red) else nil end, children: [tui.list(items: model.entries.map(&ListItem[model, tui]), selected_index: model.entries.index(model.selected), highlight_symbol: "", highlight_style: tui.style(modifiers: [:reversed]))] ) } Update = -> (message, model) { return model.with(error: ERROR) if message.error? model = model.with(error: nil) if model.error && message.key? if message.ctrl_c? || message.q? then Rooibos::Command.exit elsif message.home? || message.g? then model.with(selected: model.entries.first) elsif message.end? || message.G? then model.with(selected: model.entries.last) elsif message.up_arrow? || message.k? then Select[:-, model] elsif message.down_arrow? || message.j? then Select[:+, model] elsif message.enter? then Open[model] elsif message.escape? then Navigate[File.dirname(model.path), model] end } private # Lines below this are implementation details KEYS = "↑/↓/Home/End: Select | Enter: Open | Esc: Navigate Up | q: Quit" ERROR = "Sorry, opening the selected file failed." ListItem = -> (model, tui) { -> (name) { modifiers = name.start_with?(".") ? [:dim] : [] fg = :blue if name.end_with?("/") tui.list_item(content: name, style: tui.style(fg:, modifiers:)) } } Select = -> (operator, model) { new_index = model.entries.index(model.selected).public_send(operator, 1) model.with(selected: model.entries[new_index.clamp(0, model.entries.length - 1)]) } Open = -> (model) { full = File.join(model.path, model.selected.delete_suffix("/")) model.selected.end_with?("/") ? Navigate[full, model] : Rooibos::Command.open(full) } Navigate = -> (path, model) { entries = Entries[path] model.with(path:, entries:, selected: entries.first, error: nil) } Entries = -> (path) { Dir.children(path).map { |name| File.directory?(File.join(path, name)) ? "#{name}/" : name }.sort_by { |name| [name.end_with?("/") ? 0 : 1, name.downcase] } } end Rooibos.run(FileBrowser) --- === Batteries Included ==== Commands Applications fetch data, run shell commands, and set timers. \Rooibos Commands run off the main thread and send results back as messages. <b>HTTP requests:</b> Update = -> (message, model) { case message in :fetch_users [model.with(loading: true), Rooibos::Command.http(:get, "/api/users", :got_users)] in { type: :http, envelope: :got_users, status: 200, body: } model.with(loading: false, users: JSON.parse(body)) in { type: :http, envelope: :got_users, status: } model.with(error: "HTTP #{status}") end } <b>Shell commands:</b> Update = -> (message, model) { case message in :list_files Rooibos::Command.system("ls -la", :listed_files) in { type: :system, envelope: :listed_files, stdout:, status: 0 } model.with(files: stdout.lines.map(&:chomp)) in { type: :system, envelope: :listed_files, stderr:, status: } model.with(error: stderr) end } <b>Timers:</b> Update = -> (message, model) { case message in { type: :timer, envelope: :tick, elapsed: } [model.with(frame: model.frame + 1), Rooibos::Command.wait(1.0 / 24, :tick)] end } <b>And more!</b> \Rooibos includes <tt>all</tt>, <tt>batch</tt>, <tt>bubble</tt>, <tt>cancel</tt>, <tt>custom</tt>, <tt>deliver</tt>, <tt>exit</tt>, <tt>http</tt>, <tt>map</tt>, <tt>open</tt>, <tt>system</tt>, <tt>tick</tt>, and <tt>wait</tt> commands. You can also define your own custom commands for complex orchestration. Every command produces a message, and Update handles it the same way. ==== Testing \Rooibos makes TUIs so easy to test, you'll save more time by writing tests than by not testing. <b>Unit test Update, View, and Init.</b> No terminal needed. Test helpers included. def test_moves_selection_down_with_j model = Ractor.make_shareable(FileBrowser::Model.new( path: "/", entries: %w[bin exe lib], selected: "bin", error: nil)) message = RatatuiRuby::Event::Key.new(code: "j") result = FileBrowser::Update.call(message, model) assert_equal "exe", result.selected end <b>Style assertions.</b> Draw to a headless terminal, verify colors and modifiers. def test_directories_are_blue with_test_terminal(60, 10) do model = Ractor.make_shareable(FileBrowser::Model.new( path: "/", entries: %w[file.txt subdir/], selected: "file.txt", error: nil)) widget = FileBrowser::View.call(model, RatatuiRuby::TUI.new) RatatuiRuby.draw { |frame| frame.render_widget(widget, frame.area) } assert_blue(1, 2) # "subdir/" at column 1, row 2 end end <b>System tests.</b> Inject events, run the full app, snapshot the result. def test_selection_moves_down with_test_terminal(120, 30) do Dir.mktmpdir do |dir| FileUtils.touch(File.join(dir, "a")) FileUtils.touch(File.join(dir, "b")) FileUtils.touch(File.join(dir, "c")) inject_key(:down) inject_key(:ctrl_c) # Tests use explicit params to inject deterministic initial state. Rooibos.run( model: Ractor.make_shareable(FileBrowser::Model.new( path: dir, entries: %w[a b c], selected: "a", error: nil)), view: FileBrowser::View, update: FileBrowser::Update ) assert_snapshots("selection_moved_down") do |lines| title = "┌/tmp/test#{'─' * 107}┐" lines.map do |l| l.gsub(/┌#{Regexp.escape(dir)}[^┐]*┐/, title) end end end end end Snapshots record both plain text and ANSI colors. Normalization blocks mask dynamic content (timestamps, temp paths) for cross-platform reproducibility. Run <tt>UPDATE_SNAPSHOTS=1 rake test</tt> to regenerate baselines. ==== Scale Up Large applications decompose into fragments. Each fragment has its own Model, View, Update, and Init. Parents compose children. The pattern scales. The Router DSL eliminates boilerplate: module Dashboard include Rooibos::Router route :stats, to: StatsPanel route :network, to: NetworkPanel receive_events :ctrl_c, -> { Rooibos::Command.exit } only when: -> (_message, model) { !model.modal_open } do receive_events :q, -> { Rooibos::Command.exit } forward_events :s, to: :stats, as: :fetch forward_events :p, to: :network, as: :ping end Update = from_router # ... Model, Init, View below end Declare routes and event handlers. The router generates Update for you. Use guards to ignore messages when needed. ==== CLI The <tt>rooibos</tt> command scaffolds projects and runs applications. rooibos new my_app # Generate project structure rooibos run # Run the app in current directory Generated apps include tests, type signatures, and a working welcome screen with keyboard and mouse support. --- === The Ecosystem \Rooibos builds on RatatuiRuby[https://www.ratatui-ruby.dev], a Rubygem built on Ratatui[https://ratatui.rs]. You get native performance with the joy of Ruby. \Rooibos is one way to manage state and composition. Kit is another. ==== Rooibos[https://www.rooibos.run] Model-View-Update architecture. Inspired by Elm, Bubble Tea, and React + Redux. Your UI is a pure function of state. - Functional programming with MVU - Commands work off the main thread - Messages, not callbacks, drive updates ==== {Kit}[https://sr.ht/~kerrick/ratatui_ruby/#chapter-3-the-object-path--kit] (Coming Soon) Component-based architecture. Encapsulate state, input handling, and rendering in reusable pieces. - OOP with stateful components - Separate UI state from domain logic - Built-in focus management & click handling Both use the same widget library and rendering engine. Pick the paradigm that fits your brain. --- === Links [Get Started] {Getting Started}[https://www.rooibos.run/docs/trunk/doc/getting_started/index_md.html], {Tutorial}[https://www.rooibos.run/docs/trunk/doc/tutorial/index_md.html], {Examples}[https://www.rooibos.run/docs/trunk/examples/app_fractal_dashboard/README_md.html] [Coming From...] {React/Redux}[https://www.rooibos.run/docs/trunk/doc/getting_started/for_react_developers_md.html], {BubbleTea}[https://www.rooibos.run/docs/trunk/doc/getting_started/for_go_developers_md.html], {Textual}[https://www.rooibos.run/docs/trunk/doc/getting_started/for_python_developers_md.html] [Learn More] {Essentials}[https://www.rooibos.run/docs/trunk/doc/essentials/index_md.html], {Scaling Up}[https://www.rooibos.run/docs/trunk/doc/scaling_up/index_md.html], {Best Practices}[https://www.rooibos.run/docs/trunk/doc/best_practices/index_md.html], {Troubleshooting}[https://www.rooibos.run/docs/trunk/doc/troubleshooting/index_md.html] [Community] {Forum}[https://forum.setdef.com/c/rooibos], {Announcements}[https://forum.setdef.com/tags/c/rooibos/announcement], {Bug Tracker}[https://forum.setdef.com/tags/c/rooibos/bug], {Contribution Guide}[https://github.com/setdef/Rooibos/blob/trunk/CONTRIBUTING.md], {Code of Conduct}[https://github.com/setdef/Rooibos/blob/trunk/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md] --- [Website] https://rooibos.run [Source] https://github.com/setdef/Rooibos [RubyGems] https://rubygems.org/gems/rooibos © 2026 Kerrick Long · Library: LGPL-3.0-or-later · Website: CC-BY-NC-ND-4.0 · Snippets: MIT-0
