Just a CLI diary in Rust

Use the following commands:

1. git clone https://github.com/mbalamat/rusty-diary
2. cd rusty-diary
3. cargo build --release

Step 3 will compile the code into a single binary located in ./target/release/rusty-diary Copy that binary in a directory that's in your path. Use echo $PATH in order to find the directories that are in your $PATH.

eg. /usr/local/bin is in my $PATH so I'll copy the binary there as such:

4. cp ./target/release/rusty-diary /usr/local/bin/diary

You should be able now to use diary

diary <whatever you want to add to you diary goes here>

eg. diary Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.

Currently, in order to see your past diary entries use cat and jq. cat ~/.rusty-diary/data.json|jq

the output will be something like:

[
  {
    "datetime": "2021-02-21T16:06:16.828983",
    "entry": "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua."
  }
]
