README
Small Ruby program for periodically rendering and pushing [Tidbyt
apps](https://tidbyt.dev/).
## Setup
1. Clone this repo and run `bundle install` to install the required
gems.
2. Create a config.yml file and add your Tidbyt [API Device
ID](https://tidbyt.dev/docs/integrate/pushing-apps#pixlet-push).
```
:device_id: [your-tidbyt-device-id]
:apps:
- :name: hourly_forecast
:path: tidbyt-ushourlyforecast
:every: 15
```
3. Execute `ruby run.rb` ideally using screen or tmux on a server. The
idea is to let this program run indefinitely and periodically render
and push new updates to your Tidbyt device.
You may also want to use the `TZ` environment variable to adjust
times to your local timezone: `TZ="US/Eastern" ruby run.rb`.
## Output
```
