This small Shell script will submit links to HackerNews. It is hugely

beneficial to automate the task of submission at desired schedules.

To run the script, run the following command:

```bash

docker run \

  --name submit-hackernews \

  --rm \

  -e "HACKERNEWS_USERNAME=your_username" \

  -e "HACKERNEWS_PASSWORD=your_password" \

  ghcr.io/meysam81/submit-hackernews:v1 \

  -t "This is the title of submission" \

  -u "https://example.com"

```

## Usage: GitHub Actions

You can run this in a GitHub Actions workflow. Here is an example:

```yaml

name: ci

on:

  workflow_dispatch:

    inputs:

      title:

        description: The title of the link to submit.

        required: true

      url:

        description: The URL of the link to submit.
