Motivate-new

As previous repo is not maintained now, but there are a lot of people who want to contribute, I've decided to fork and continue the project. This would be active and would be maintained by me. PRs are welcome 🎉.

Features

• Colored Output
• Supports bash and zsh

Requirements

git
python 3x

Installation

Linux/MacOS

$ git clone https://github.com/avats-dev/motivate.git
$ cd motivate/motivate
$ sudo ./install.sh
$ source ~/.bashrc

zsh users should replace .bashrc with .zshrc.

If you have no root priviledge, install in this way:

$ git clone https://github.com/avats-dev/motivate.git
$ cd motivate
$ ln -s $PWD/motivate/motivate.py moti
$ ln -s $PWD/dummy.sh mmoti

$ export PATH=$PWD:$PATH
$ # echo 'export PATH=$PWD:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc

Later you can run by calling moti (a single run) or mmoti (keep running until you break it). After doing so, I found that python 2.x is enough to run this script.

Windows

• Make sure you have Python3 on your path.
• Clone the repository git clone https://github.com/avats-dev/motivate.git.
• Add the path to your local clone to your system path.
• Run py -3 motivate.py from the command prompt.

Failing Validation - 191.json

Internal quote used double quotes which was interpreted to break the string, rather than using single quotes.

motivate/motivate/data/191.json

Line 19 in 52a71a1

"quote": "I enjoy almost everything. Yet I have some restless searcher in me. Why is there not a discovery in life? Something one can lay hands on and say, "This is it"? My depression is a harassed feeling. I'm looking: but that's not it - that's not it. What is it? And shall I die before I find it?",

[FEATURE] Add json lint test

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

What if json added is not properly linted?

Describe the solution you'd like

A github action to check on every push for json lint and py code style.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Atleast the json lint check. Py code check can be avoided for now.
