# Install

Clone the repository, install the requirements and run `conferences.py`. 

```

git clone https://github.com/cphyc/conferences.git

cd conferences

pip install -r Requirements.txt

```

# Options

```

usage: conferences.py [-h] [-u] [-f START [START ...]] [-t END [END ...]] [-s]

Interact with conferences from conference-service.com

optional arguments:

  -h, --help            show this help message and exit

  -u, --update          Update database.

  -f START [START ...], --from START [START ...]

                        Earliest date when printing (default: now).

  -t END [END ...], --to END [END ...]

                        Latest date when printing.

  -s, --silent          Do not print conferences.

```

Note that the input format for `-f` and `-t` is *very* flexible. It accepts human-formatted dates, including for example `--to next year`, `--from 31 Dec. 2019`, etc. It relies on the awesome https://github.com/scrapinghub/dateparser for this.
