With it, you can set statuses (with or without expiration dates) without leaving the terminal.\nMore importantly, you can also set presets and defaults to save time on statuses you reuse all the time.\n\n## Configuration\n\nYou can use `slack-status-cli` without a configuration file and provide everything via arguments (see `slack-status-cli\n-h` for the list of flags you can pass in), or set up a file under `~/.config/slack-status-cli` that follows the format:\n\n```json\n{\n    \"presets\": {\n        \"pairing\": { \"text\": \"Pairing\", \"icon\": \":pear:\" }\n    },\n    \"defaults\": { \"duration\": \"1h\", \"icon\": \":calendar:\" }\n}\n```\n\n`presets` allows you to set up a map of labels (used to select the preset) to values (defining the status text, icon and\nduration), `defaults` allows you to set up sane defaults used in all statuses if the specified fields are not provided\n(in the above, all statuses would have a duration of one hour if not specified, and a default :calendar: icon -- presets\nand/or CLI args will override these defaults if given).\n\n## Installation\n\nYou can clone this repository and build from source or use pre-built artifacts. To build yourself, you can `. script/bootstrap \u0026\u0026 python -m build`. Build artifacts for released versions are also available under [releases](https://github.com/mcataford/slack-status-cli/releases).\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fmcataford%2Fslack-status-cli","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fmcataford%2Fslack-status-cli","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fmcataford%2Fslack-status-cli/lists"}
