Screenbase

==========

A very simple tool that monitors your desktop for new screenshots, moves them to

your `public Keybase filesystem `_, and copies the

link to your clipboard.

Works on macOS and (probably) Linux.

Dependencies

------------

On macOS, install `terminal-notifier` from homebrew to have notifications when

complete.

Installation

------------

Simply:

.. code-block:: bash

  $ pip install screenbase

Usage

-----

By default, screenbase watches your ``~/Desktop`` directory for files matching a regex

tailored to macOS screenshot filenames (``Screen Shot 2017-03-09 at 5.29.50 PM.png``).

This regex is configurable as a string passed with the ``-m`` flag. The watch

directory is configurable via the ``-d`` flag.

Similarly, screenbase uses your current username (via Python's ``getpass.getuser()``)

as your keybase username by default, which it uses to move files into your kbfs public

folder and generate the URL to it. This can be configured via the ``-u`` flag.

Screenbase will look for a YAML-formatted config file in

``~/.config/screenbase`` (this path configurable with the ``-c`` flag). If it

finds it, it will overload the default configs with the values it contains. The

keys should match the long form of the command line flags you can see via

``--help``. Eg:

.. code-block:: yaml
